Our episode today features Tracey Spicer, award winning journalist, author, and social justice advocate who begins this episode with a story from her own life: her son, after watching an episode of South Park, declared "Mum, I want a robot slave." This declaration prompted Tracey to begin a seven-year journey exploring how society shapes the technology we surround ourselves with, and how technology in turn shapes us. Her findings are documented in her latest book, Man-Made, which was published by Simon & Schuster earlier this year. Tune in to hear more about Tracey's latest book, her work as a journalist and social justice advocate, how technology is changing journalism, life as a working parent, and so much more.
Please note: We discuss some of the realities of work for women. This occasionally touches on topics that are not suitable for young listeners.
