Ep 2: How to Pack Like a Methodology Queen
Listen now
Description
A philosopher, a historian, and Tucker Carlson walk into a bar… Welcome to Episode 2 of Massively Disabled, the one where Élaina lays out her methodology and rolls it up in a rucksack, ready for the road. We’re talking narrative medicine, citational practices, and the philosophical uses of history (whatever that is) to better understand how we are going to approach the topic of long COVID. The clip from Hannah Sullivan-Facknitz was taken, with permission, from a longer interview for Philosophy Casting Call: "Ethics of Kinship in the Archive w/Hannah Sullivan-Facknitz" Sources mentioned in the episode: Rosemarie Garland-Thomson’s “Eugenic World Building and Disability: The Strange World of Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go” The Scottish Healthcare Workers Coalition calling for the return of mask mandates in hospitals The House of Lords’ Long COVID debate on 17 November 2022 Department for Work and Pensions’ “Households below average income: for financial years ending 1995 to 2022” Sara Ahmed’s “On Being Included: Racism and Diversity in Institutional Life” Michel Foucault’s “Discipline and Punish” and “History of Sexuality: Vol . 1” American Press article on Dominion Voting suing Fox News about 2020 election claims Annemarie Mol’s “The Body Multiple” Ian Hacking’s “Mad Travelers: Reflections on the Reality of Transient Mental Illness” Rita Charon’s “Narrative Medicine: Honoring the stories of illness” Danielle Spencer’s “Metagnosis: Revelatory Narratives of Health and Identity” Mich Ciurria’s “Disabled People Should Define Disability” In the spirit of intentional citing, it must be noted that the title of this episode employs the term “methodology queen”, first heard on the health and wellness debunking podcast “Maintenance Phase”, co-hosted by Aubrey Gordon and Michael Hobbes.
