Welcome to the State of Talk podcast, brought to you by the International Society for Conversation Analysis. In this episode, Yumei Gan (Chinese University of Hong Kong) interviews Marjorie Harness (Candy) Goodwin, distinguished research professor in the Department of Anthropology at UCLA. Candy is a linguistic anthropologist, whose research deals with “the embodied language practices human beings use to construct in concert with each other the social, cultural and cognitive worlds they inhabit”. In this interview, Yumei and Candy talk about Candy’s early data sessions with Gail Jefferson, Charles Goodwin, and Erving Goffman, as well as data collection and analytic interests.

This interview format is just one of many formats that we – the ISCA publication committee – are currently testing. Our broader aims – with the new website, the social media presence, and the Forum Newsletter is to generate discussion, collaboration, and put a fire in our belly about the interactional discoveries that can only come from our kinds of naturalistic inquiries.

If you have ideas or want to participate, please go to https://conversationanalysis.org/ –  and reach out to us. We would love your input in what we are building, which we hope is a truly International connection amongst our EM and CA communities.
