When you hear the words "Texas Soul," what comes to mind? Listen to Leslie Collier's definition that includes grit, toughness, kindness, and independent......Introducing Leslie Collier through the lens of Truly Significant Texans, one can argue that Leslie is less a furniture executive and more a cultural anthropologist of Texas. What makes her unique is that she sits at the intersection of three powerful forces: music, relationships, and storytelling. Leslie has spent decades preserving and interpreting Texas culture not from a university classroom, but from the showroom floor of W.R. Dallas. Furniture, after all, is where families gather, musicians tell stories, business leaders build friendships, and communities pass traditions from one generation to the next. Her musical prowess gives her access to the heartbeat of Texas. Musicians are often the first historians of a culture. Through relationships with artists, songwriters, performers, promoters, and cultural leaders, Leslie has developed a unique understanding of what makes Texas different from anywhere else. She understands that a song often reveals more about a people than a census report ever could. Her extensive network is equally important. Over the years she has become a trusted connector among artists, business leaders, ranchers, philanthropists, educators, and civic leaders.Like a true anthropologist, she has observed how these communities interact and has helped preserve the traditions, values, and stories that define Texas. The furniture business itself is a form of cultural preservation. W.R. Dallas has been part of Texas homes, ranches, lodges, and gathering places for generations. Through that work, Leslie has seen firsthand how Texans live, celebrate, grieve, entertain, and pass along family legacies. The company's history provides a living window into Texas culture and heritage.What makes Leslie truly significant is that she doesn't merely study Texas culture—she helps sustain it. She champions Texas music, celebrates Texas craftsmanship, promotes Texas history, and connects people who might otherwise never meet. In doing so, she serves as both curator and storyteller of the Texas experience.A fitting description might be: "Leslie Collier is Texas' cultural anthropologist—not because she earned the title in a classroom, but because she has spent a lifetime listening to the music, preserving the stories, connecting the people, and furnishing the gathering places where Texas culture comes alive." That is a rare form of significance. She helps Texans remember who they are.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/success-made-to-last-legends--4302039/support.

Anthropologists have uncovered something pretty fascinating about Neanderthals—they might not have completely gone extinct like we thought. Instead, it seems they might have been absorbed into the modern human gene pool. A new study shows that Neanderthal DNA could include up to 3.7% of modern human genes. This suggests that humans and Neanderthals interbred more than we previously realized. So, in a way, Neanderthals are still with us today, just mixed into our DNA. Learn more about your ad choices.

The minute I started reality Fridays I knew I wanted to talk to Brian Moylan. I've been reading Brian's Housewives recaps since I was a solo viewer with no one to talk to about what I was watching, and since then his significance in the culture has only grown. Aside from the recaps he writes for Vulture and his own Substack, he authored The Housewives: The Real Story Behind the Real Housewives, worked with Erika Jayne on her book Pretty Mess, and has presented countless panels at Bravocon and similar events. If you watch the Housewives or any Bravo shows, you will love this chat.To support the podcast and access bonus episodes, join the community on Patreon here. Hosted on Acast.

At 48, Bill Hayes moved to New York. He took up photography, and never anticipated the surprise of falling in love with his neighbour, Dr Oliver Sacks,  a neurologist, a naturalist and a university professor. (R)Doctor Oliver Sacks became famous for writing case histories of his patients in books, including The Man Who Mistook his Wife for a Hat, and An Anthropologist on Mars.At 75 years old, Oliver had never been in a relationship, until he fell deeply in love with his neighbour Bill Hayes, who was decades younger than him.Bill and Oliver lived together until Oliver Sacks died in 2015, in his early eighties.Further informationBill's memoir Insomniac City was published in 2017 by Bloomsbury.This conversation was recorded at the 2017 Sydney Writers' Festival.The producer was Nicola Harrison and the Executive Producer was Pam O'Brien.

Most tour operators benchmark pricing against competitors and copy the playbook of the loudest voices in the industry. Mary Collins runs two businesses by ignoring both and starting from the question an anthropologist asks first: who benefits.Mary Collins is the founder and CEO of Blue Fern Travel, a DC food tour company she launched with her husband in 2014, and the owner of Far Horizons Archaeology and Cultural Tours, the 40-year-old multi-day company she acquired in 2022. Both businesses sit on the same foundation: an anthropologist's instinct for community, story, and the economics of who benefits from a tour. Blue Fern pays full price at every restaurant, tips every server 20 percent, and routes a portion of every ticket back to a local nonprofit. Far Horizons travels with a PhD scholar from morning to night, caps at 14 guests, and spends two hours at sites where most competitors spend 30 minutes.This episode is a working session on running two very different tour businesses from the same operating philosophy. Mitch and Mary go deep on hiring for personality over knowledge, pricing into demand instead of against the competition, building DMC relationships that survive a 20-year operator transition, and the specific moment Peter Syme had to tell her twice to raise her prices. She walks through what it took to inherit a beloved 40-year-old brand from its 80-year-old founder, the FileMaker-to-WeTravel tech overhaul, and the donation model that has routed half a million dollars to archaeological sites worldwide. Operators running food tours, scholar-led tours, or any business with a returning customer base will find concrete, actionable material here.Resources:Blue Fern Travel (blueferntravel.com)Far Horizons Archaeology and Cultural Tours (farhorizons.com)Bread for the City (Blue Fern's donation partner)WeTravel (Far Horizons' booking platform)

For the 178th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes Treena Orchard, anthropologist and author of ⁠Sticky, Sexy, Sad: Swipe Culture and the Darker Side of Dating Apps⁠. In this episode, anthropologist Treena Orchard shares her experiences with online dating after turning 45 and offers insights into the complexities of modern "swipe culture." She discusses the unexpected interest from younger men, the vulnerability men face in shifting gender dynamics, the dark side of dating app gamification, and the upsides of tech involvement in our love lives. Orchard critiques popular platforms like the "feminist" dating app Bumble and highlights how dating apps commodify romance. Despite the challenges, she found meaningful connections and argues that in-person, activity-based dating may be the future of romance.

What if the antidote to our increasingly frantic world isn't a grand gesture, but simply the act of paying attention?This week, Kate and Laura are joined by actor, podcaster, and author Miranda Keeling – returning to the pod to talk about her wonderful new book, The Place I'm In, a collection of the small, luminous moments she's gathered from daily life. After her debut The Year I Stopped to Notice, Miranda is back with more of her 'noticings': fragments from parks, supermarket queues, and streets that remind us how much magic is hiding in the everyday.Their book club read is the perfect complement: The Anthropologists by Ayşegül Şavas – a soulful, quietly funny novel following Asya and Manu as they hunt for an apartment, trying on different futures for size in a city far from home. Asya, a documentary filmmaker, spends her days in the park gathering footage – an anthropologist of the ordinary – and her project rhymes beautifully with Miranda's own.Plus recommendations inspired by the art of the everyday.You can find out more about Miranda and her work at mirandakeeling.com, and her podcast Stopping to Notice – over 200 five-minute episodes of binaural location recording – is the perfect companion listen.Find all the books mentioned at our bookshop.org shop.

Assisted by his caregiver, Emma Stockton, Harry does more than just PT when a neighbor urgently phones Harry for help and they find her dead on her kitchen floor. Michelle talks about her research for this new series, what makes her curious, and what got cut from her debut novel. BONUS: Hear me inspire her next writing project LIVE!

We are living in a time when cruelty is normalized, war is justified as inevitable, and violence is often explained away as simply “human nature.” But what if that story is wrong?On this episode of Nonviolence Radio, we speak with peace anthropologist Doug Fry about the evidence — archaeological, cross-cultural, and contemporary — that challenges the assumption that humans are wired for war. Drawing on decades of research, Fry explores peace systems, restraint, interdependence, and the ways societies have sustained nonviolence across history.If war had conditions that gave rise to it, then it is not destiny. And if peace has deeper roots in our human story than we've been taught, then reclaiming human sanity may begin with reclaiming the truth about who we are.As Fry reminds us, the task is not to debate whether change is possible — but to act:“I don't waste my time thinking whether this is possible or not. Take steps to try to get it done. I fail or I succeed. And if I fail, back to the drawing board. Try something else. Do it. Do it better. Do something different.”

本季節目的最後一集，正在準備升學的主持抱著在大學數年遇到的各種觀察與困惑，和嘉賓乘著越發熱烈的討論氣氛，開始交換在教／學路上的想法。如何平衡研究生／助教的工作負擔？助教之間如何互助，又如何為教／學議題進行討論？如何處理與指導老師既是同事又是師生的關係，以及與學生劃分界線？本集節目繼續由人類學系助教Amy分享她作為研究生的另一面，解答主持人的各種疑難。（本集以廣東話進行。）In the final episode of this season, the host—preparing for further studies—brings up various observations and questions encountered during their years at university. Together with the guest, and spurred by an increasingly lively discussion, they begin to exchange ideas about teaching and learning. How can postgraduate students balance their workload? How is the relationship between TAs? How do they navigate relationships with supervisors, who are both their colleagues and teachers, and where do they draw boundaries with students? This episode once again features Amy, a teaching assistant from the Department of Anthropology, who shares another side of her experience as a postgraduate student and responds to the host's many questions.(This episode is conducted in Cantonese.)00'15 謙卑學習 Humble learning06'05 TA互助會與AI議題 TA support group and discussion on AI12'30 研究生與助教的工作平衡Workload balance between postgraduate and TA18'50研究生／助教與老師的關係 Relationship between postgraduate student/TA and teaching faculty27'30 最後補充：Linus偏好的tutorial風格以及Amy的呼籲 Final remarks: Linus' tutorial preference, and Amy's reminderCredit: Opening and Closing Music "Pleasant Porridge" KevinMacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/系列介紹：你講我講人類學講，歡迎收聽「人類學咁講」，我是Linus。人類學家在研究的過程中，會花費大量時間和報導人聊天，參與他們的日常，建立比研究者/研究對象更深遠的關係。「對話」往往讓我們學到更多。在這一個podcast系列中，我會和不同對象輕鬆對談，展示更多人類學人的想法和故事。於我而言，人類學是有趣而充滿情感的學科，我希望可以把這些感覺呈現出來，也希望你會喜歡：）About the Series: Hi, anthro speaking. Welcome everyone to “Anthropology Says”, I am Linus, host of this podcast series. Anthropologists spend a lot of time chatting with our interlocutors, participating in their routines, and building a relationship deeper than a typical interviewer-interviewee one. “Chatting” in this sense can teach us things beyond our expectation. Through interactions in a casual setting, thisseries will focus on the less theoretical side of the anthropology life and showcase the ideas and stories of those of us in anthropology. To me, anthropology is full of sentiments and fun, which I hope to share in these episodes. Thank you for listening :)

繼上集簡單介紹了人類學系助教Amy作為 TA的工作，我們繼續深入討論TA工作中遇到的情況。TA如何處理在教學中遇到的衝突？如何找到自己主持導修課以及和同學交流的風格？TA工作裡面有哪些趣事、煩惱和反思？ （本集以廣東話進行。）Following the previous episode where Amy shared her journey into becoming a TA, we dive deeper into the situations a TA might face. How does a TA handle conflicts between students and themselves? How do they develop their own style of leading tutorials and interacting with students? What hilarious and tricky incidents would they face in their work? In this episode, Amy, teaching assistant from the Department of Anthropology continues to share funny encounters, dilemmas, and reflections from her work.

來到本季最後一位受訪者，我們把焦點放在課堂上可見但又不熟悉的群體 ——教學助理（TA）。相信同學們都會不時與TA聯絡（可能是交功課、請假），但又缺乏機會進一步聊天。誰可以做助教？除了開燈設定電腦、回覆同學電郵之外，助教的工作包括什麼？如何適應不同老師的教學方式，相輔相成？最難改的功課是什麼？本集節目邀請到在人類學系修讀哲學碩士的Amy分享她從美術系本科生踏入人類學擔任助教的種種。（本集以廣東話進行。）Arriving at the final interviewee of this season, we turn our focus to a group that is visible in the classroom yet unfamiliar to many – teaching assistants (TA). Students likely have interacted with TAs from time to time (maybe for submitting assignments or requesting leave), but there is rarely a chance to really get to know them. Who can become a TA? Beyond tasks like turning on the lights, setting up the computer, and replying to emails, what else does a TA do? What is it like to adapt to various teaching methods of different professors, and to create diverse learning experience?  How hard is it to grade papers? In this episode, we are lucky to have Amy, one of our TAs who just finished her MPhil in the Department, to share her experiences moving from an undergraduate in Fine Arts to becoming a TA in Anthropology.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement goons are murdering American citizens in Minneapolis, running concentration camps around the country - including Florida - and increasing their terror campaign in and around Orlando. The mission of ICE is to abuse Brown people, strike fear into their communities, and retrench white supremacy. Anthropologist and Puerto Rican/Hattian American Simone Delerme spent time studying the Latino community around Orlando, it's remarkable growth over the past 40 years, and how those residents are fitting into and remaking the area. Her book, "Latino Orlando," reveals her findings."Welcome to Florida" patrons receive exclusive access to our "Florida Conservation Newsletter" for only $5 per month.

Leila Philip discusses 19th-century anthropologist Lewis Henry Morgan, who documented beaver dams in the Lake Superior Basin, where Philip recently observed centuries-old dams still continually cleansing water. Philip also details her immersion into the world of modern fur trappers, finding unexpected ecological knowledge and a deep connection to nature within that culture.

Episode 98 In 1999, Garland “Butch” Martin was convicted of killing his girlfriend, Marcia Poole, and her two young children, Brady and Kristin, and was sentenced on three counts of capital murder in Midland, Texas. The State told a compelling story: domestic abuse, accelerant-driven fire, pre-fire blunt force trauma, and motive. A jury believed it. Twenty-four years later, Butch Martin was exonerated. In Part Two of this two-part series, April breaks down what the jury didn't hear: conflicting fire science, flawed forensic anthropology testimony, discarded physical evidence, and the physics of fire that contradict the State's entire arson-murder theory. We examine the defense, the appellate process, modern NFPA-aligned fire investigation principles, and how the work of Dr. Gerald Hurst and John Lentini unraveled the narrative. Because before you can call something arson-murder, you have to prove arson — and in this case, there is zero credible evidence that this fire was intentionally set. In this episode we cover: The defense's accidental fire theory Conflicting chemical analysis (Norpar & “deparaffinated kerosene”) What Dr. Gerald Hurst and John Lentini found years later Why NFPA 921 rejects “pour pattern” folklore The missing extension cord and freezer on the back porch 40 mph winds and the physics problem for the State's origin theory Cerebral edema vs. “blunt force trauma” Anthropologist vs. medical examiner expertise boundaries The appellate court's reasoning for exoneration How wrongful arson convictions keep happening When you strip away mythology and examine only evidence, this case collapses. Every credible data point points to an accidental fire — and an innocent man lost 24 years of his life. The Crime to Burn Patreon - The Cult of Steve - is LIVE NOW!

About two million Guatemalans live in the US. But, half of those here lack legal status, and tens of thousands of Guatemalans are deported back to their country each year. Are the countries these migrants left prepared for an influx of returnees?  This episode, originally released in 2018, is part of the Making Contact Anniversary Capsule: celebrating 30 years of social justice journalism. The miniseries takes us from protests on the streets of Seattle to an Indiana family fighting for their daughter's gender affirming care. It explores a racial reckoning in the world of romance writers, and tells the story of border walls from Gaza to Arizona. These shows embody how Making Contact has been digging into the story beneath the story since 1994.

Welcome back to Behind Greatness. Joan (a Catalan name, pronounced "shwan") is an Anthropologist currently living in San Sebastian, Spain. He also owns a travel company called Last Places. This endeavour was born from his love of exploring the last places on Earth and living with its inhabitants – places where no tourists exist. He adopted his grandmother's gaze on the world, living in life's mystical rhythms – following by what you feel rather than by just what you see. In service to this gaze, Joan has focused his life's energy to investigating and researching decaying traditions around the world. We talk about the Amazon, Cameroon, startlink-ification effects on tribal culture, fruit-cracking fish, thinking less v feeling more, dancing with wolves and churches, supermarkets and tracksuits. We may have also discovered a new emotion.

A provocative collaborative project, China as Context challenges the marginalization of Chinese-grounded ideas in academia, arguing that neglecting China distorts our understanding of global complexities. Through diverse ethnographic perspectives, this volume repositions China, urging a holistic, post-global approach to the social sciences amid shifting global dynamics. Decades-old calls to recognise China's significance for anthropological theory and the social sciences are more urgent than ever. Yet, Chinese-grounded ideas remain marginal, with China often seen as a distant “Other” rather than a source of widely applicable theory. Drawing on East Asian postcolonial scholarship, this volume argues that without taking China seriously as a knowledge producer and a key agent in a post-global world, social scientists risk misinterpreting the global present. As Western globalisation wanes and anthropology reassesses the relationship between ethnography and theory, we show how “China” must be understood as an ordinary, integral context for research worldwide. China as Context is edited by Di Wu, Andrea Pia, and Ed Pulford. Di Wu is an Anthropologist and Associate Professorial Fellow at the Institute of Anthropology, Zhejiang University, the People's Republic of China. Ed Pulford is an Anthropologist and Senior Lecturer in Chinese Studies at the University of Manchester. Yadong Li is an anthropologist-in-training.

Premise: Almost all leaders today lead in an environment that is ripe with disruptions and ever changing competitive landscape. The challenges of leading in this constantly evolving landscape are very different from that of leading in a stable environment where the current management practices are rooted in. So, if we have to succeed in this new world, we need to change the lens through which we view leadership and management practices. That begs the questions - where can we draw inspiration for the new way of leading. Thankfully, we don't need to look far. We can learn from Evolutionary Biology. Leading an organisation today and how evolution works are very similar - they are both a part of and navigate complex adaptive systems. And nature has had a long time to perfect the techniques and tactics that have allowed life to bloom. So, I think there are some interesting and important lessons that we can learn from nature and the evolutionary process. Foundational Tenets of Evolutionary Biology Here are the most fundamental and foundational tenets on which the entire field of Evolutionary Biology is based on: Random events produced the first signs of life. Since then, variation (mutation - adjacent possible and genetic drift - random shifts) provides the impetus for evolution. Selection acts as the fitness test (ability to reproduce and stay alive) Inheritance ensures successful traits are passed on to next generations. Deep time allows cumulative change to produce new functions or species. Over time, simple rules lead to complex patterns, behaviors and species. The starting of our organisation was the random event that started this journey of survival. Embrace Variation - Adjacent Possible & Genetic Drift All evolution happens when there is some sort of variation - either within the organisation or its context. This variation results in something new, which is then put through a rigorous test by its environment and only those variations that are able to navigate the environment successfully are then preferred. Every other variant slowly but definitely dies out. Similarly, as leaders, we need to create an ecology of ideas. We need to look at adjacent possibles (continuous improvement) in our area of work all the time. We should also be on the look out for the genetic drift (random, breakthrough ideas) which can help us shift the level we operate at. Every time something changes - internally within our organisations or externally within the context in which we operate in, we need to explore and come up with experiments and the one that is able to navigate the changes the best, needs to be promoted, while the other ideas slowly but surely die out. Actionable Tip for Leaders: Invite everyone on the team to constantly explore ways to improve the existing processes by running small SMART experiments. And once in a while (maybe quarterly), explore to identify game changing ideas. It is great if you succeed, if not, you would have atleast some more interesting experiments to run. Idea is to engage in the process. Selection acts as the filter for fitness Evolution uses fitness as the only filter to assess whether a variation in a species continues to evolve or simply goes extinct. It is nature's job to be always creating variations, testing them for fitness, promoting the fit one's to be passed on and killing off all other variations. It is exactly our job as a leader. We need to continue to create experiments (variations) both in the adjacent possibles and attempt at breakthroughs (genetic drift), give them some air to test and continue to invest in those that are providing to be successful and kill those that are not. Actionable Tip for Leaders: Lets ideas clash for investments - money, attention and time. Let the best idea (defined before the process is run) win, and let the rest die quickly. Inheritance of successful traits: In addition to variation, evolution also ensures that the successful traits are always passed down from one generation to the next. In exactly the same way, as leaders it is our responsibility to ensure that good ideas and what we learn is spread across the organisation and passed on. This can be done by creating systematic process for documenting and sharing of ideas - good one's that work well. In evolution, the only key criteria is for the organism to continue to survive as a species by reproducing itself. In business, the most important criteria is similar - to survive for another day. Anything that can help in this regard needs to be well known and well shared within the teams. Actionable Tip for Leaders: Ensure that best practices and good ideas are widely shared among the team so that everyone can learn and build on them. Let time play out The biggest strength of the evolutionary process is that it takes its time and is in no hurry. It allows for simple variations to compound over time to create complex abilities and species as a result. As leaders, we can also leverage the power of time on our side - by continuing to work on the different experiments, we are in a way creating a flywheel. This flywheel has the potential to compound over time and create an outsized impact for our business. We just need to trust in the process and let time do the rest. Actionable Tip for Leaders: Have a long term view and approach. Allow multiple small ideas compound over time. What does this mean for us as a leader? This requires us to shift from being a controller to a facilitator, creating environments that empower self-organization, experimentation, and optimizing for learning. We can do that by Encouraging exploration and manipulation of ideas and contexts Design robust feedback and feedforward loops for continuous learning Empower teams with autonomy and reward experimentation, even failures Value diversity and inclusion to prevent blind spots and foster robust solutions Be comfortable with ambiguity and utilize managed tension between agents as a driver for adaptive change and novel information Be responsive to environmental shifts Continuously modify internal models Implement continuous learning loops ("learning by doing") Leverage inherent resilience and self-organization of complex adaptive system Adopt adaptive governance with decentralized decision-making As leaders, we need to treat leadership as Experimentation. We treat decisions as hypotheses to be tested, learn from feedback, and adapt accordingly. Self Organisation and Emergence: In evolution, all of these principles when play out and result in what we call Self organisation and emergence. Emergence by its definition is random and can not be predicted in advance and is a result of self-organisation (there is no one in charge there). This also shows that the overall entropy in the system is ever growing (with variation and emergence). As leaders, we need to be aware and constantly looking for emergence as and when it emerges. Once we see what emerges, we can explore how to exploit the emergence towards our goals. Smart leaders are always on the lookout for emergence everytime, they change something - for both expected and unexpected consequences and deal with them in real time. Self-organized Criticality One of the results of emergence is also the concept of self organised criticality, where the response to a small action can be outsized and can cause ripple effects across the entire system (as in the last grain of sand falling on an already tall sand pile leading to the collapse of the sand pile). As leaders, we need to be constantly on the look out for such criticality building up within our systems and plan for the inevitable shock that will come. By being better prepared, we can not only minimize the shock but possibly even find ways to leverage the shock to accelerate our pursuit to our goals. Conclusion Evolutionary biology offers an invaluable lens for leading complex adaptive systems. By embracing variation, facilitating selection via feedback, prioritizing adaptation over prediction, cultivating self-organization and co-evolution, organizations can move beyond outdated management practices. When leaders act as adaptive facilitators, empowering systems to learn, evolve, and adapt to an unpredictable future, we build resilient and some times even an Anti-fragile organisation and that can lead to consistent and significant high performance over a long and sustained period of time in a turbulent environment. In the past few posts, we explore about how we can learn from Anthropologists, Behavioral Scientists, Coaches and Directors. As you can see, Leaders worth following can learn from anything and everything. In order to succeed in the ever evolving environment, we need to optimize for our learning ability.

The culture that thrived at Teotihuacan in the Classic period has a unique place in Mesoamerican history. Today, it is held as an emblem of the Mexican national past and is one of the most visited archaeological sites in the Americas. Nevertheless, curious visitors are told that the ethnic and linguistic affiliation of the Teotihuacanos remains unknown. Whereas the decipherment of other Mesoamerican writing systems has provided a wealth of information about dynasties and historical events, scholars have not been able to access information about Teotihuacan society from their own written sources. Indeed, the topic of writing at Teotihuacan prompts several contentious questions. Do signs in Teotihuacan imagery constitute writing? If it is writing, how did it work? Was it meant to be read independently of language? If it did represent a specific language, then what language was it?Our guest: Dr. Magnus Pharao Hansen is an Anthropologist & Linguist who works as an associate professor at the University of Copenhagen.

There's fresh drama in the field of human origins! A new analysis of an ancient hominid skull from China challenges what we thought we knew about our ancestral family tree, and its timeline—at least according to the researchers who wrote the paper. The new study claims that Homo sapiens, and some of our relatives, could have emerged at least half a million years earlier than we thought. But big claims require big evidence.Anthropologist John Hawks joins Host Flora Lichtman to piece together the details.Guest: Dr. John Hawks is an anthropologist and professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.
