Abstract
This episode is part two of three of the lecture series [HTA 18] on Spring 2026 philosophy conferences and other public-facing philosophy events; this episode in particular specifically addresses my experiences at the 99th Meeting of the Pacific Division of the American Philosophical Association [APA] in 2026, including my experiences participating in a recorded workshop about Descartes’s Meditations on First Philosophy, on the Cartesian Circle, and on Cartesian epistemology; my colleagues in the workshop presented their works in progress on other aspects of the Meditations.
