Ologies Podcast Suggestions
Ologies is a weekly science podcast hosted by Alie Ward. Each episode, Ward interviews an expert from a distinct scientific field.
This unofficial list contains book suggestions made by the host or by her guests. I avoided extremely technical books or papers. Currently from episode 1 to 525 More details on these books and their associated episodes in my ever evolving spreadsheet.
In the spreadsheet there are also books not found on Goodreads and general book recommendations (like the entire bibliography of a specific author or group of people)
Further Reading: The New Jim Crow
Please let me know if I’ve missed anything, you have recommendations, or anything should be removed!
Gathering: On Food, Hospitality, and Belonging
Books exploring the magic that happens when people gather around the table
Killjoy's Guide to Religion: Suggested Readings
The (now defunct) podcast titled Keeping It 101: A Killjoy's Introduction to Religion offered an academic, intersectional look at religions around the world. They often included homework in their episodes to expand upon what they discussed. This list compiles all of the books they suggest.
Shout-out to Dr Megan Goodwin and Dr Ilyse Morgenstein Fuerst, hosts of the podcast. Thanks for teaching us things for free.
