Dr. Sam Rocha

Sam Rocha joins us today to talk about phenomenology, and more broadly philosophy, as an important tool to understand the world around us. He promotes a "folk phenomenology," an idea about which he has written a book, and produced a podcast.  After the episode we talked for an additional 20 minutes.
