Plato’s Pod: Dialogues on the works of Plato
by James Myers
October 28, 2024 11:29 am
Welcome to Plato’s Pod, a bi-weekly podcast of group discussions on the dialogues of Plato, the philosopher and geometer who wrote nearly 2,400 years ago. Anyone interested in participating, whether to learn about Plato or to contribute to the dialogue, is welcome to join. Hosted by amateur philosopher James Myers, the podcast is held through Meetup.com and inquiries can be e-mailed to dialoguesonplato@outlook.com. Episodes are lightly edited for clarity, with care to avoid compromising the contributions made by participants. Wherever we go in our discussions, we gain knowledge from each other’s perspectives, and for the increase in knowledge we invite everyone to add their voice to the dialogue. Plato, without a doubt, would have imagined no better way than in dialogue for knowledge – the account of the reasons why – to find its home.
