Dyan DeNapoli wanted to be a marine biologist since she was a child. Working with dolphins and penguins called to her, from the inside. At the age of 30, as she was working as a silversmith making jewelry, her parents gifted her a month long EarthWatch Expedition working with Dolphins in Hawaii.As she stood at the airport in Hawaii, waiting for her flight home, Dyan made an important decision: She didn't know how and she didn't know when but she WAS going to dedicate herself to working with marine animals. And boy has she! From getting a second bachelors degree, to finally getting hired at the New England Aquarium (after years of volunteering), to running the world largest animal rescue mission in history, Dyan's commitment to animal conservation has been nothing short of extraordinary.Join us as we discuss:How she found the courage to follow her dreams, despite a total lack of guaranteesWhat to do when you fail miserably at the job you've always wanted to doWhy she loves sharing her story and the story of the animals she cares for, whether that's on a TedXStage, in an elementary school, or via her books.About the Guest: Dyan DeNapoli is a penguin expert, TED speaker, and award-winning author. Her first book, The Great Penguin Rescue, chronicles her experiences helping to manage the rescue of 40,000 penguins from an oil spill in South Africa.

No big deal, just the person who was part of the largest animal rescue in history, right here on the No Outlet podcast! Plus, it's another first for the show, the first person who has given a Real Ted Talk AND the first animal expert on the show. We met right before Covid really messed things up in an improv class that started off as a in person class and was converted to an Online class. I remember her being smart and funny and I knew she was into Penguins, but I DID NOT realize the was THE Penguin lady. But I know now, and was very fortunate to have her on the show...the one and only penguin lady Dyan deNapoli! We talked about reincarnation (its real), saving 40,000 penguins (obvi), going to Antarctica several times, the unfair characterization of Penguins in Batman comics (people remember), Brutal Mating rituals of Penguins, getting attacked by a penguin that you are trying to save, the catchy New England Aquarium TV spot and many other topics...some not even about Penguins! In all sincerity, the devotion that she has to helping this animal is really special and I would highly recommend that you check out her website: https://thepenguinlady.com/ she was a great guest and I really appreciate her joining the program. I hope you all enjoy the conversation as much as we did!
Today's storyteller is Rebecca Atkins! She's a PhD student at the University of Georgia studying marsh periwinkles in salt marshes. Marsh periwinkles are an adorable little purplish snail found in coastal salt marshes around the coastal United States. I've always seen them when I do field work but got to learn so much about them from Rebecca. We also talk about how she got into the wetlands / snail research field, and about the course on STEM and feminist theory she just helped teach with other graduate students. The course sounded really good (that's the "Experiences in STEMM part of this episode because I'm not very good at creatively naming episodes) and I am looking forward to learning more about those topics. Also, Rebecca, like many people I've talked to in STEMM is also an artist & she does illustrations! One of my favorite parts of doing this podcast is learning about all the different aspects of people in STEMM outside of their careers/fields and it's really fun. I enjoyed talking to Rebecca so I hope you enjoy this episode!

Dyan deNapoli is The Penguin Lady and in this episode we talk all things penguin! First we talk about her involvement in rescuing 40,000 African penguins after a massive oil spill in 2000, about her book The Great Penguin Rescue about that experience, about her path to becoming The Penguin Lady, and about the status of penguin populations worldwide.

Everyone loves penguins, but how much do we really know about them as living beings? This week, The Wild Life is taking a waddle on the wild side, and our guide on our clumsy, yet hopefully charming journey is the one, the only, the...penguin lady, Dyan deNapoli. Dyan deNapoli is a penguin expert, TED speaker, and author of the award-winning book, The Great Penguin Rescue, which chronicles her experiences helping to manage the rescue of 40,000 penguins from the Treasure oil spill in South Africa---also April's book club pick (check the episode notes for a link to join!). Dyan is frequent guest on radio, podcasts, and TV in the US and abroad, Dyan has spoken at four TEDx conferences, has created a TED-Ed video for the classroom, and has lectured worldwide about penguins, including as a guest speaker for Lindblad Expeditions and National Geographic on their ships traveling to Antarctica. Today, we explore the penguins popularity, their little known plite, and well, their poop as we travel from Antarctica to the equator. This episode is also dedicated entirely to our dear friend, and long-time supporter, Chris Trankel! Bonus Fact: Adelie penguins fire their poop away from their nest like a mortar shell, and scientist are using satellites IN SPACE to monitor penguin populations by scanning for, you guessed it, their POOP!

What happens when 76 high-wattage women spend three weeks aboard a ship in Antarctica, the most desolate place on the planet? Conversations ignite. Debates are sparked. About career choices. White privilege. And about doubt. It turns out that it’s not always easy to agree to disagree, or agree to agree. Original theme music by Gabriel Corindia.

How can women be mothers, and leaders, and scientists all at the same time? What if those categories don't apply? Does the concept of motherhood need to adapt to our changing world? Go back to that feeling, walking together at the Women's March. Take that with you as you go off into the world. MiLCK’s song “Quiet” narrates this episode, recorded live in February 2017 in Toronto with Choir!Choir!Choir!, C!C!C! Original theme music by Gabriel Corindia. Quiet by MiLCK with Choir!Choir!Choir!

Does leadership training come through a battery of psychological tests? Or is it more about something closer at hand? Knowing yourself. Deep down. And then, being comfortable with that knowing. But how do we get there? And if you get there, what do you do with that information? You’re in Antarctica now and you begin to meet the women. They’re raw, transparent, and inspiring. Hard questions are asked about what makes someone a good leader. We start to hear the sounds of Antarctica, and get to know the women who are a part of this podcast: Monica Araya, Dyan deNapoli, Danielle Medek, Deborah Pardo.
