In our penultimate episode, Wonik Son and Shalini Rudra join us to talk about their research on health, disability, and the role of international organisations in the late twentieth century. Discussing the role of the World Health Organisation, the United Nations, and the World Trade Organisation, they consider sources from photographs and oral testimony and ultimately reflect on their research in light of the current pandemic.

In this episode, Fabiola Creed and Louise Morgan consider the dietary fad, clean eating, and tanning technologies such as 'MelanoTan'. They examine these cultural phenomena with reference to the financial elements imbricated in the advocation of these technologies and diets, as well as the way in which medical research intersects with public discourse in media representations of clean eating and MelanoTan.TW/ This episode contains discussion of dieting and eating disorders, some listeners may find this distressing.
