GBA 222 James

In GBA 222 we get better acquainted with James. He talks about coding, the power dynamics around public shaming, the tech industry, online culture, masculinity and privilege. Clearly I was very much inside the process of writing the #ManSurvey show and interpreting the #ManSurvey when we recorded this episode! James plugs: The software he makes.
