You can access the pub either from the street (entrance to the right of The St Pancras Hotel entrance) or via St Pancras Station (entrance from the upstairs train platforms). We'll be in the private dining room - ask at the bar if you can't find us.Organise ourselves into small groups (3-4 people per group)Have a look at the thought experiments (announced on the day of the event)7:15 - First rotation begins - Talk about the first thought experiment, but feel free to veer off topic.7:35 - Optional reshuffle: swap groups, move on to the second thought experiment.8:00 - Optional reshuffle: swap groups, move on to the third thought experiment.8:25pm - Wrap up - hear about upcoming events, feedback/requests for future meetups.8:30 Meetup ‘ends’. But feel free to carry on conversations. We have the room until 10pm and usually a lot of us stay until then :-)Notes on the general atmosphere:The vibe is to let conversation flow rather than stick strictly to one topic.While we'd like to talk about 'meaningful things', we also see the value in lighter topics, so don't worry about not being 'deep' enough!Feel free to suggest ideas for future Thought Experiments in Pubs meetup groups, both in terms of structure and topics to discuss.Where we'll meet:This group will be at The Betjeman Arms. The nearest Tube station is King's Cross St. Pancras. You can access the pub either from the street (entrance to the right of The St Pancras Hotel entrance) or via St Pancras Station (entrance from the upstairs train platforms). We'll be in the private dining room - ask at the bar if you can't find us.Who should come:Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts in Philosophy, it is about doing philosophy. That is, bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world to group discussions about the human experience, the nature of reality... etc....I'm so looking forward to meeting & talking with you in this beautiful location.Bonny :-)Relevant links: - read more about this community and other related stuff - backup in case meetup goes down - see what our events look like - very occasional announcements - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/special-event-teip-x-debate-london-•-part-1-thought-experiments/100001998638504569 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: 18+ - door_time: 2026-09-14T17:30:00Z - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Betjeman Arms - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 11.55, max: 11.55, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Betjeman Arms - **lat**: 51.5301451 - **long**: -0.1246748 - **full address**: Betjeman Arms, Euston Road, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: SPECIAL EVENT: TEiP X DEBATE LONDON • PART 1 | Thought Experiments - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/ef374a12c203d90ed6a67819570506a5b471a4bdb4f90c279da3fedefc037ea2-rimg-w1200-h900-dc886848-gmir.jpg?v=1787409970 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is SPECIAL EVENT: TEiP X DEBATE LONDON • PART 1 | Thought Experiments being held? - **A:** SPECIAL EVENT: TEiP X DEBATE LONDON • PART 1 | Thought Experiments takes place on Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Mon, 14 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 pm at Betjeman Arms, Euston Road, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Is there an age restriction for SPECIAL EVENT: TEiP X DEBATE LONDON • PART 1 | Thought Experiments? - **A:** SPECIAL EVENT: TEiP X DEBATE LONDON • PART 1 | Thought Experiments is strictly for guests aged 18 and above.

We're \nDebate London\nJoin us and we will teach you how to speak in public, think strategically, and deal with conflict. We will then give you a platform to lead by example in our monthly debates, that are free to attend and open to all, so you can show those in search of a more civil way to examine our differences what it really means to be a great debater.\nWe provide 2 types of events:\nPublic Speaking and Debate Training workshops - Instead of inviting guest speakers to sit on our debate panels, we train our members to defend the competing perspectives shaping the debate in their own words and develop the skills that allow our members to tackle any topic and find the arguments for any side.\nPublic debates - Every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month we debate issues that divide public opinion, which this year ranged from inducting Ukraine into NATO and deposing Boris Johnson to falling UK birth rates and fake news. Topics are expressed not as a question, but as a proposal that the audience must vote to accept or reject after hearing all the arguments" } ] } ] ```
