À propos de ce contenu audio

Jay’s Conversations is a fun, thought-provoking podcast that explores the intersection of community, culture, and intellectual thought. Each week we’ll invite listeners to reflect on what it means to belong to a community, how we share & understand ideas, and how our experiences both, past and present, inform the way we live and interact with the world. So, tune in every Wednesday with Jalen Layfield, an aspiring anthropologist, and together we’ll engage with scholars, artists, and everyday people to bridge the gap between scholarship and real-world experiences. It’s not just a podcast, it’s your way to join in on the conversation.Copyright 2025 Jalen Layfield Science Sciences sociales
