“You’re not going to have an easy time. Because I’m going to put you on the hot seat.” So declares our first nonagenarian guest, Alice von Hildebrand, to Socrates host Eric Metaxas as they begin this conversation about her life and writings. If you think the years have dulled Dame von Hildebrand’s fire, wit, and passion, be prepared to be happily flabbergasted!

Eric Metaxas and best-selling phenomenon Malcolm Gladwell discuss Gladwell’s book, David and Goliath, along the way touching on acromegaly, getting busted at immigration, the “practical” side of “grace”, Chuck Colson, “stop and frisk”, the ill-effects of attending a prestigious college, his own changed view of the power of faith, and much more. 

Radio talk show host Hugh Hewitt has conducted more than 10,000 interviews, and as a rule he opts not to interview comedians because “three hours later you don’t know what happened, the paper’s all gone, people are laughing, and nothing’s been done.” Here the radio host ends up on the other side of an interview with the very funny Eric Metaxas as they discuss Hugh’s book, The Happiest Life.

In this poignant and at times heart-rending conversation, Eric Metaxas talks with Rod Dreher about his book, “The Little Way of Ruthie Leming: A Southern Girl, a Small Town, and the Secret of a Good Life.”

Darwin, the scientific method, Danny DeVito, and Cher all manage to find a place in this mind-boggling and entertaining conversation between Eric Metaxas and Stephen Meyer, at the Union League Club in New York City in September 2013.

Christian Wiman discusses his book, “My Bright Abyss: Meditation of a Modern Believer,” with Eric Metaxas at the Socrates in the City Gala on June 26, 2013, at the Union League Club in New York City.

For the first time in SITC history, Eric Metaxas interviews not one, but two guests! Columnist Cal Thomas and political pundit Bob Beckel are political adversaries–AND good friends.
