Description

[1]This episode we talk about ourselves. First, Jon and Arturo gaze at our podcasting navels. We discuss The Society Pages [2], our plans for Office Hours [3], and discuss what we've learned about producing podcasts and conducting interviews. Second, at about 42 minutes in, Jesse and Chris join the mix and we navel-gaze as sociologists and academics about e-books, academic publishing, and the state of sociology. So go grab a fuzzy navel, and listen to improv #9 [4].
