Ajayi, who was introduced in the 81st minute, took just over three minutes to mark his debut with...

Drunk Women Solving Crime
300 The Big Three-Oh-Oh, with Steph McGovern
It's a landmark episode of Drunk Women Solving Crime, as Hannah and Taylor mark the 300th edition of the show in style, with the wonderful writer and broadcaster, Steph McGovern! As well as Steph sharing an epic crime story that felt more like a film Bruce Willis might star in, the gang also charge their glasses while solving a caper centred around the heady world of whisky, and while they may not have completely solved this week's listener crime, they definitely didn't make it worse. PLUS, as it's a very special occasion, there's a surprise in...

Michael Rossi, "The Republic of Color: Science, Perception, and the Making of Modern America" (Chicago UP, 2019)
The appreciation of color is considered universal among human societies, yet varies vastly according to cultural norms and material circumstances. In the nineteenth century, synthetic chemistry produced new hues like mauve that changed the sensory worlds of people living in industrial societies. In The Republic of Color: Science, Perception, and the Making of Modern America (Chicago UP 2019), historian Michael Rossi explores how reformers and scientists turned to color science to ask and answer profound questions about the relationship between perception and personhood. Their efforts to define and standardize the modern sensorium were often proposed as solutions to practical problems of e...

How can we understand computerization as a social process? Life by Algorithms: How Roboprocesses Are Remaking Our World (University of Chicago Press, 2019) is a timely and welcome edited volume in which a set of interdisciplinary contributors explore how people make automated processes work, and how these systems reciprocally transform everyday life. From farming to financeânot to mention schools to prisonsâthe volume amounts to an urgent plea to remove the veil of corporate and government secrecy shrouding technologies that subtly restructure our social and material worlds without any semblance of democratic oversight.

Cars are among our most ubiquitous technologies; one could say that the cultural lore of the postwar United States is written in tire marks. But as much as they have been a vehicle for liberation and expression, historian Lee Vinsel argues that automobiles have been shaped by government regulation through and through.In Moving Violations: Automobiles, Experts, and Regulations in the United States (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2019), Vinsel combats the free market doctrine that auto regulation is fundamentally opposed to innovation.

Standards allow your computer and smart phone to connect seamlessly with others. While it is clear that standards shape the material world we live in, someone decided that they should be that way.

A fortune teller, cotton prophet, and a weather forecaster walk into a barâprobably a more common occurrence than you might think in the Gilded Age United States! Jamie Pietruskaâs Looking Forward: Prediction and Uncertainty in Modern America (University of Chicago Press, 2017) assesses how different varieties of forecasting created an often-contradictory âculture of predictionâ during the rise of modern bureaucracies. Looking to the countryside, her book engages histories of capitalism to think about how everyday rural Americans engaged with the rise of probability, and how private and state forecasters competed for authority and audiences for their figures.Mikey...

Commentators have been forecasting the eclipse of hypothesis-driven science and the rise of a new âdata-drivenâ science for some time now. Harkening back to the aspirations of Enlightenment empiricists, who sought to establish for the collection of sense data what astronomers had done for the movements of heavenly bodies, they appeal to a general consensus that the acceleration of data collection through computing technologies requires a parallel shift toward computational thinking. This raises the question, however, of how computational practices have changed over the last few decades.
