What we’re about
Join us Wednesdays at Philosophy Fight Club for round table discussions that strengthen your rhetoric, flex your intellect and sharpen your wit.
These non academic discussions occur each week, currently in the basement of Saint Lawrence church in the city. Topics at Fight Club vary, chat can run on and everyone has an equal voice.... though you may need to speak up to be heard. The session is broken up with games, presentations and challenges with post match social drinks at a dive bar next door.
You are welcome here for making friends, finding collaborators, expressing opinion and gaining perspective. "You decide your own level of involvement"

From The Ancient Agora to Modern Cafés — A Dialogue Through Time
Long before cafés became hubs for casual chatter, they were places where ideas were tested, challenged, and refined. Their roots stretch back to the Athenian agora — the bustling heart of public life where Socrates posed sharp questions and sparked debate.
From those open-air exchanges, the spirit of public philosophy travelled through the centuries, thriving in the salons and coffeehouses of the Enlightenment, where revolution, science, and art brewed alongside strong drink.
This event retraces that journey — from ancient Athens to Enlightenment parlours to Marc Sautet’s modern café philosophique — and seeks to bring back the rich, searching conversations that once defined public life.
