Dave sits down with Eva Hoffmann for a chat about teaching philosophy at the high school level (something virtually non-existent in the US, but relatively common in Germany), post-academic cross-continental life, and the perils of navigating the death of a furry mammalian family companion. Eva holds a PhD in German Studies and teaches philosophy, among other subjects, at a high school (Gymnasium) in Bayreuth, Bavaria.

Eva’s recommendations:

Trampled by Turtles, “Wild Animals” (Album)

Anything by Margaret Atwood

Arundhati Roy, “The God of Small Things” (Novel)

Barbara Kingsolver, “Demon Copperhead” (Novel)

Justine Triet, “Anatomy of a Fall” (Film)
