Podcast appearances and mentions of athena andreadis

When was the last time you called home? No, I don't mean calling your parents' house or checking in with loved ones. When was the last time you give yourself space to check in with yourself? For Grammy voter Athena Andreadis, checking in with herself is an essential daily practice. Athena, born in London to Greek parents, is a rare diamond with a blessed voice and songs filled with emotion, stories, and heart. Personally, I think she could very well be the next Janis Joplin with a country and faith vibe. Throughout my conversation with Athena, she shares her story to becoming a songwriter and what is the theme behind her new just released album, OUTSIDE OF TIME, how she made it onto the radio, and what meditation practices she uses to express herself in her writing. She also tells the story of how she received her calling to move to Los Angeles, how she builds her confidence, and why she strives to experience true authenticity in her work. Tune in to hear more about Athena's path to success within the music industry!Some Questions I Ask: How did you get inspired to become an artist?

Athena Andreadis: Women in SF. Science fiction wishes to be the genre of imaginative extrapolation, yet the portrayal of female characters remains largely traditional. Even in today’s SF, the role of protagonist remains mostly a male occupation requiring by-the-numbers quests that fall short of a story’s scientific and technology ingenuity. But the sixteen writers collected in The Other Half of the Sky aim to change that by telling engaging stories in which women have strong roles. In this episode of Matter Stream host Christopher Jones is joined by Dr. Athena Andreadis, scientist and writer who conceived of and edited this collection of original fiction, to discuss the roles of women in SF literature as well as Star Trek.

Athena Andreadis. The Star Trek universe is teaming with life. Everywhere our heroes travel they find aliens, mostly of the humanoid variety, yet in the real world we still know of only one place that life calls home: Earth. Our species has believed for most of its existence that we were either put here by divine beings or we are just a fluke of nature. In the past few decades, however, we’ve discovered life here on Earth in places we never expected, and now we’re discovering worlds orbiting other stars that could host life as well. The general assumption has long been that life must have the same type of environment that we find comfortable in order to survive. Oxygen, nice temperatures, and a bit of carbon to form the basis of its biology. But as we find life in extreme environments that assumption is being challenged more and more. In this episode of Matter Stream we’re joined by Dr. Athena Andreadis, Associate Professor of Cell Biology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Dr. Andreadis is the author of the book To Seek Out New Life: The Biology of Star Trek, and today we’ll talk about the many forms that life can take here on Earth and what we might find elsewhere in the solar system and beyond. 

Athena Andreadis: 100-Year Starship Study. When Star Trek premiered in 1966, the idea of traveling through space on a ship like the Enterprise was truly futuristic. Today, that same idea is accepted by many to be the inevitable outcome of our technological advancement. But is it really possible? In this episode of Matter Stream we’re joined by Dr. Athena Andreadis, Associate Professor of Cell Biology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Dr. Andreadis is the author of the book To Seek Out New Life: The Biology of Star Trek, and she spoke earlier this year at the 100-Year Starship Symposium.
