James returns after a Summer break! This week we're running a special episode on Macrodose theory, taking you behind the scenes to look at some of the theoretical building blocks of how we put the show together (1:23).
What is Macrodose, why are we doing it, and who are the thinkers we should be reading to understand the world we now live in today?
