PHILOSOPHY SLAM With Robert Rowland Smith and Mark Vernon At the Century Club - Soho W1 Friday the 9th June 2023 from 7:30 pm You may have been to improv nights before, but possibly never one featuring a Fellow from All Souls College Oxford and a former Church of England priest. In this unusual evening philosophers Mark Vernon and Robert Rowland Smith will riff over dinner on any subject you want to ask about - from atheism to zeitgeist.
