Humanities Now
Humanities Now is the official podcast of the Humanities Center at Texas Tech. We feature conversations with members of the humanities community at Texas Tech University. With every episode, these varied voices help us realize the Center’s mission: asking out loud, “What does it mean to be human?” and demonstrating how can we answer that question from so many different perspectives.

Our Theme for 2022-2023 is Health!
As we return from hiatus to begin a new season, we introduce the Humanities Center's programming theme for 2022-2023: "Health." This year, we will imagine multiple ways of being healthy, and critique definitions of wellness or ability. We will close the gap between the mind and the body. We hear from multiple members of this year's programming theme: Dr. Julie Zook (Architecture), Dr. Jacob Baum (History), Dr. Victoria Sutton (Law), Dr. Emily Skidmore (History), and Dr. Paul Reinsch (Theatre and Dance). Across these five conversations we see the range of humanities perspectives we will bring to our theme this year, and the variety of questions that will shape our events.
