Where can you listen?

Theory of the Week is a podcast where we tell the story of something we found interesting. This is why we say "theory-esque": the idea is that both we, as producers, and you, as listener, can learn something new with each episode. Topics are picked based on our backgrounds and what we're currently curious about, and can be oriented around a particular theory, research paper, book, or even person. To give you an idea of the variety: past topics range from Plato, through development economics, to Max Weber. Episodes run 15 to 20 minutes. This is a hobby project by students, so while we aim for at least bi-weekly episodes, expect some pauses during stressful periods like exams.Important: This isn't an authoritative account, but a low-entry introduction to ideas we find genuinely interesting, made by students for anyone curious to learn alongside us.Want to contribute or critique?
