People Stuff is a write-in, anthropology advice podcast wherein we answer all sorts of questions with the weird and wonderful wisdom that anthropology offers. From whether you should make your bed to what you owe to the dead, no dilemma is too tiny, no conundrum too vast for a little bit of anthropology. After all, as a species, we've been human-ing for like 300,000 years already. Surely we've figured some stuff out.
People Stuff is hosted by Michael Scroggins and Dan Souleles. Michael and Dan met in anthropology grad school and things have gone downhill ever since. Michael squandered his youth studying DiY Biotech and payday lending in Silicone Valley and astrophysicists in Los Angeles and Dan has wasted much of his one precious life studying financiers in Chicago and New York and legislative politics in Massachusetts. Michael and Dan have both published a ton of research, but no one reads that so now they podcast.
One time Dan lived in a monastery and Michael learned to drive on a tractor.
