Consider this podcast your open invitation to pull up a chair, order your favourite drink and spend a few minutes thinking about life, culture, and French philosophy. Hosted by Dr Christopher Watkin: author, researcher and university lecturer in modern and contemporary French philosophy and culture. More info at christopherwatkin.com
