This week on The Coffee Hour, Adam sits down with Denison professor of Anthropology/Sociology Dr. Hosna Sheikholeslami. (Aka Dr. Sheik.) The two discuss the concept of Anomie (depression caused by extensive deregulation) and how it can be seen in the time of COVID-19. They discuss different government responses, ways to combat anomie and what could happen after the quarantine ends. Plus, what the Coronavirus teaches us about the thoroughly modernized, hyper-capitalist world we live in. And… the excellent beards of the fathers of sociology.

All this and more on The Coffee Hour.
