b'We are very pleased to be joined by returning guest Danielle Carr, anthropologist and historian of science who is finishing her PhD at Columbia, to chat about her excellent new essay on the (anti-)political epistemology of the pop sci style as represented by the work of the genre\\u2019s golden boy, Carl Zimmer. We discuss science as both an institution and ideology that, like other such things with authority and power in society, must be subjected to ruthless critical analysis. And yet, nearly all critique of science has been forfeited to the most extreme right-wing denialism. No longer! It\\u2019s time to reclaim ground for a leftist, materialist examination of science.\\n\\nFollow Danielle: twitter.com/_danielle_carr \\nRead her article: https://www.thenation.com/article/culture/carl-zimmer-virus/ \\n\\nSome other stuff we reference\\n\\u2022 Against Method | Paul Feyerabend: https://www.versobooks.com/books/442-against-method\\n\\u2022 How to Defend Society Against Science | Paul Feyerabend: https://www.radicalphilosophyarchive.com/issue-files/rp11_article1_defendsocietyagainstscience_feyerabend.pdf \\n\\u2022The Eighteenth Brumaire of Bruno Latour | Simon Schaffer: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11622708/\\n\\u2022 Neoliberalism for Polite Company: Bruno Latour\\u2019s Pseudo-Materialist Coup | R.H.
