Episode 8 – Kerri Lendo pt. 2

The conversation with Kerri Lendo continues this week with more Shiner Bock, and we get into the nature of wanting to learn, how we can examine things like DNA on such small levels, what it may lead to, and all sorts of other things. A call to Aaron Burrell (@airburple) kicks things off.

– The hotel we stayed in for the wedding was part of a casino that allowed smoking, and my throat didn’t respond well to all the second-hand smoke.

Out on the Road

The Canceled Tour is rounding the bend and nearly headed down the home stretch. If you haven’t made it out to a show yet, come say hello before it’s over. Atlanta, New Orleans, Houston, Austin, Dallas, and Phoenix still ahead on the road home. Hopefully you’ve been enjoying the episodes. It’s been nice chatting with people who are listening. If you have any requests for images or links mentioned on the show, feel to comment here, and I will post them. Here’s the link for Heath from Reddit’s new website that I mentioned this week. It’s Upvoted.com, and it’s pretty cool. See what you think.

Episode 7 – Kerri Lendo pt. 1

My old pal, and funny Austin comedian, Kerri Lendo drops by to chat this week about Chemical Engineering, cloning, working in a lab, living in Austin, and lots more. We share some Shiner Bock, and she tries to remember what she learned while getting her degree from Penn State. A call to Jared Ribstein (@jribstein) in Duluth kicks things off, and a song by Dan Pritchard closes it out.

Episode 6 – Sheila Madrak pt. 2

06_sheila-madrakSheila Madrak is back this week with Petunia to continue our chat about the ocean, turtles, ecology, charismatic megafauna, and so much more. This time we are sticking with something from Stone Brewing in San Diego and enjoying their Arrogant Bastard Ale. Listen to a quick check-in with Chris Luchterhand (@chrisrluch) via twitter, grab a refreshment, and then join in.

Sheila Madrak (@shishfish), a marine ecologist pursuing her PhD in Conservation Ecology from the Joint Doctoral Program in Ecology at San Diego State University and UC Davis, was nice enough to drive up from San Diego with her pet turtle Petunia and talk about marine life, ecosystems, how to keep them safe, and the role of humans in all of it. We also enjoyed some Ruination Ale from Stone Brewing in San Diego. All of which was thoroughly enjoyable. A call to Kim Bowman, who has been incredibly helpful with the podcast so far, kicks it off as we chat about her genealogy. Get nice and cozy and join in.
