What is this meetup? 🤔 Calgary: Philosophy for Everyone, coffeehouse style meetup designed to help you practice thinking and talking about life’s big questions. without the academic jargon. Do you miss having real conversations? We aren't here to lecture; we are here to explore perspectives. No preparation or background is required. We focus on practical themes (e.g., Power, Justice, Discipline). You don't need to study. We provide "jump-off" questions at the event to get the thoughts flowing. The Format & Rules ☕ We believe in structure so that everyone gets heard. We typically have 6 people at each table, and limit capacity to keep it small. • Moderated Tables: Every table has a dedicated moderator to read prompts, manage time ⏰, and keep the conversation moving. • Turn-Taking: One person speaks at a time. No cross-talk 🤫. • Respect: We focus on short, personal takes and stories. Dominating the conversation is discouraged to ensure everyone has space. • Detours: Allowed only if everyone at the table agrees ↪️. Socializing & Community 🤝 Meeting new people is hard, this is a low-pressure way to do it. • 7:00 PM: Arrive, grab a drink, and settle in. • 7:25 PM: Discussion begins (tables formed). • 9:00 PM: Wrap up discussion. • After 9:00 PM: Socializing.
