Coffee with the Dog EP 329 - John Gibbs - Standup philosophy

30 years teaching and lecturing in the UK and USA. Understanding culture through the home as a 'museum of us'. The secret history of rooms, kitchens, doors and corridors. How to read the design of houses  and lived in spaces to understand class, power, gender and the production of identity. Drawing on philosophy and social studies to read the the built world and find the extraordinary in the ordinary. Podcast host of 'The Spinoza Triad' which applies philosophy to contemporary issues. Recent episodes have discussed conspiracy theories, social media, the pandemic and sport. I take an open minded view of politics and enjoy debate and discussion which is conducted in a spirit of inquiry. I created and edit the Politics Shed site.  https://anchor.fm/john-gibbs1
