Tea With
Socrates
A philosophy podcast where every question has a cost.
Arc One begins Tuesday, November 3.
What it is
Every episode takes one idea in philosophy, one with real consequences, and works it through. What the concept means. The moment in history where it changed. The strongest objection against it. And what it does to how you see your own life, once you can’t unsee it.
No history lectures. No self-help. No answers on the final page. Just a cup, a question, and a host who won’t let a comfortable answer stand.
Arc One is five episodes on why you’re not a reliable witness to your own life. The episodes, with reading, are here.
About
Hello. My name is Cody, and I run a public library in Kentucky. Tea With Socrates is a passion project that carries on the long conversations I had with friends growing up, the kind where one question only fed the next. I never studied philosophy formally. I just kept reading. If you think I’ve got something wrong, or that the objection wins, write to me. I’ll read it.
