Field Notes
Field Notes is the free, written companion to Infectious Dose—a quieter space to sit with one idea a little longer.
Each issue begins with a single thread from the week’s episode. Not a recap, but a closer look. A shift in perspective. The part of the story that doesn’t end when the audio does.
From there, it widens slightly—tracking what’s emerging around that idea, and what might matter next.
Each issue is structured in four parts:
-
In the Margins
-
A closer look at one idea—the thread I’m slowing down and following where it leads.
-
-
Underlined
-
What I’m watching around that idea—early signals, patterns, or shifts that don’t look important until they are.
-
-
What It Points To
-
The core insight
-
-
Postscript
-
My notes—what I’m researching, what’s coming next, and what I’m still thinking about.
-
