Anna Gát and Interintellect on the Quillette podcast

"Podcast #262: Interintellect and the Modern-Day Salon"

From

Quillette

:

“My guest this week is Anna Gát. Anna is a Hungarian émigré who is now happily based in New York. A former poet, screenwriter, and playwright, in 2016 Anna founded Interintellect: a platform that allows people to create discussion forums, talks followed by Q&A sessions, and more informal meetups, both online and in person. Interintellect now hosts one or two salons every day and subscribers to the platform number [in the tens of thousands]. Anna is also the host of the podcast The Hope Axis. She has had an extraordinarily varied, kaleidoscopic, cosmopolitan, and intellectually rich life. We discussed Hungary and the Orbán regime; Girardian triangulation; Elective Affinities; finite and infinite games; linguistics; Christianity; accelerationism; autists; love, sex, and Milan Kundera; and many other topics. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Anna Gát.”
