  • Ep. 6 | The Commons & The Commonsverse (pt. 2)
    Sep 28 2023

    This is Part 2 of a two-part episode on the Commons with Nina Gunther-Segal! (If you haven't listened to Part 1, go do that now!)

    In this one, we dive deep into the concept of the "commons" - what does one look like? How have efforts to build commons around the world been successful, and how have they been hindered? Also, what would a person working in a commons have to say about constructivism?

  • Ep. 5 | The Commons & The Commonsverse (pt. 1)
    Sep 12 2023

    This is Part 1 of a two-part episode on the Commons with Nina Gunther-Segal! We chat about what a "commons" means, the Commonsverse (an online resource to find work being done in commons around the world), and the principles that Nobel Prize winner Elinor Ostrom developed to describe how they are (and should be) structured.

  • Ep. 4 | Real Short: Constructivism & Science
    Jul 30 2023

    Here’s another “Real Short”, and it’s all about constructivism and science! In this episode, I give a brief history of different theories on knowledge within science, talk about Jean Piaget’s contribution to evolutionary biology, and talk a little more about why we should change our scientific lenses.
