Dr. Werkheiser writes, "Most episodes will be conversations with guests who are experts on some aspect of the ways food affects our lives, our cultures, and our societies. The apple podcast link is here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thought-about-food-podcast/id1530669077, the podcast's own site is https://thoughtaboutfood.podbean.com/ to get the embedded player, and it'll slowly appear over the next few days in every other podcast aggregator (like Google, Amazon Alexa, Stitcher, etc.)."
Dr. Cory Wimberly's book is featured in the APA Blog, 'New Books in Philosophy' series. Dr. Wimberly writes, "It's a short look at some of the themes and ideas in it. And, as it's about propaganda, media, corporate power, etc., it's salacious enough to tickle your 'righteous anger' (as Aristotle called it). The book is How Propaganda Became Public Relations: Foucault and the Corporate Government of the Public."
Congratulations to Drs. Mariana Alessandri and Alex Stehn for winning the Inter-American Philosophy Award at this year's meeting of the Society for the Advancement of American Philosophy, which met in San Miguel de Allende!

The Award includes a cash prize, and the winning paper will be published in The Inter-American Journal of Philosophy."
