The Web of Us
The Web of Us explores the visible and invisible connections that shape our world.
Hosted by Claire Wathen, Visiting Fellow at the University of Oxford Saïd Business School, and produced by Josie Colter and Ben Beheshty at Studio Goldstar, this podcast invites you to explore how networks show up across everything from our brains and natural systems to our communities and workplaces.
Guests from Oxford and around the world share unexpected career paths, insights from their fields, and reflections on a world often split into categories, siloes, and lanes.
Tune in for thoughtful, engaging conversations that help you navigate new perspectives, uncover shared experiences, and imagine new ways to connect, collaborate, and thrive.
Have a question, an idea for a future guest, or feedback to share? I’d love to hear from you at Claire@WebOfUs.org.
Welcome to the Web.
