Apple Podcasts5Jill1091United Kingdom3 years ago - My favourite podcast right now.
I’m enjoying learning about the role of the social sciences. I studied Sociology at University in the late 80’s. I don’t think that I was ever told what it was really for or encouraged to turn my studies into a career. If only I could do it over! This will have to do. And it will do quite well. Thank you.
