Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates? Well, this is not about them! Philosophy Casting Call is where Élaina Gauthier-Mamaril, your friendly neighbourhood philosopher, interviews professors, grad students, and non-academics to find out what philosophy looks like now and try to shine a spotlight on thinkers, topics, and themes that are historically marginalised in academic philosophy. This includes women, LGBTQIA, disabled, and BIPOC people who are out there, getting their philosophy on, and who deserved to be cast as philosophers in our culture.

Metagnosis and Narrative Medicine w/Danielle Spencer

In this episode, Élaina interviews Danielle Spencer, the author of “Metagnosis: Revelatory Narratives of Health and Identity”. Danielle explains what she means by “narrative medicine” and what the COVID-19 pandemic and the genre of physician memoirs can tell us about what still needs to happen before we can achieve more holistic healthcare.

You can reach Danielle and find her work on her website: https://www.daniellespencer.com/
