ABOUT THE POD
Philosophy is an important academic subject, one we believe everyone should be exposed to and explore. But philosophy can also feel distant and abstract to many people. The Grindstone is an ‘armchair interviews with philosophers’ podcast that gets to know the people who study and teach philosophy, and tries to apply some of their wisdom to the world around us.
We let the conversations unfold in their own way, but we try to cover three topics with all of our guests:
We also occasionally interview people who majored in philosophy and went on to careers in various industries outside of academia to ask them how their education in philosophy prepared them for and applies to their current work.
The conversations are informal, organic, and go where they go. We hope that they are informative and insightful. And we hope that you enjoy them. Thanks for listening!

The Grindstone is releasing a COVID-19 series over the next few weeks. Today we introduce the series, which will sound quite different from our typical format, and share the story of how it came to be and how we recorded it. We also wanted to take a moment to say hello to all of you, and that we hope you all are staying healthy and safe out there.
Check out the first full-length episode from our COVID-19 series this Friday afternoon, 19th June, 2020!
Thanks for listening!
