Philosophy for the People

Philosophy for the People

by

Philosophy today is almost exclusively carried out either in limited-access classrooms, at professional conferences, or in total isolation in an office or study. Philosophy for the People challenges these contemporary modes of philosophizing by inviting members of academia to participate in a form of public philosophy. In each episode I sit down with a philosopher to discuss questions of ultimate concern in ways that are relevant to everyday people and the crises and conundrums we face. I also offer free, open-access, online seminars for anyone interested in taking a deeper dive into the topics.
