    The Value of Sociology

    Sociology and other disciplines within the humanities are often undervalued. Those outside the discipline often feel there is very little to gain because their first-hand experience is enough to understand the world. So, if we are going to create a podcast all about social theory, a good place to start would be justifying why we need the humanities.
