On information theory. Here:

The Science & Faith Podcast is back with another enlightening episode with Dr. William Dembski. This interview serves as a follow-up to Dr. Tour’s recent Abiogenesis Series, particularly Episode 8 (https://youtu.be/CYiguQYCSio ) and Episode 12.1 (https://youtu.be/IaJo5jWs_6k ), answering questions on the topic of biological information. In this talk, Dr. Tour and Dr. Dembski discuss information theory, information search and probabilities, patterns with underlying specifications, and more. Dr. Dembski is an informatician, trained mathematician, and philosopher, and he holds many degrees, including two Ph.D.s (philosophy & mathematics) and an M.Div. (theology). He has written his fair share of books on information theory (some are linked below). Questions from the audience conclude this very intellectual talk, and don’t forget to check out the links!
