Bookshelves & Barstools #6: Cities, Emergence & Complexity, Tourism

The Reeds is a gathering of amateurs in the deepest sense of the word: lovers of letters, wisdom, and humankind. Our mission is to bridge the gap between the academy and the world by creating a community of sincere learners. So on this podcast, a bunch of amateurs get together and freely discuss books and ideas. The Reeds Podcast contains two series. The first is Close Reed, which always has a text at its foundation, and around which the discussion centers. The second is Bookshelves & Barstools, a purposefully untethered and impromptu series of conversations, designed to mimic the sort of passionate conversations we used to have after class or at a bar. One is (relatively) more serious, the other more relaxed, yet both are still just amateurs trying to get to the bottom of things. Learn more at: https://www.the-reeds.com/
