Today on the podcast I interview my Master's advisor at George Mason University, Dr. Daniel Temple. Dr. Temple is an Associate Professor who studies early life stress and resilience in prehistoric hunter-gatherer populations primarily in Japan, Alaska, the Aleutian islands, and Siberia. We cover a wide range of topics including his academic journey starting with community college to where his is today at GMU. Dr. Temple received his PhD from The Ohio State University where he worked with Dr. Clark Spencer Larsen. His dissertation was a large scale study of the consequences of the agriculture transition in prehistoric Japan to gain a comprehensive understanding of the response to agriculture in the region. We touch on his previous positions as a Professor, getting his master's degree in England, how he met Dr. Haagen Klaus, and his experience working with Don Ortner at the Smithsonian. Additionally, he explains the goals of an ongoing international and interdisciplinary project focused on producing high resolution life histories of hunter gatherers in the Eurasia region from 8,000-4,000 years ago, called the Baikal Archaeology Project https://baikalproject.artsrn.ualberta.ca/. We end our discussion by talking about where he sees the need for change in bioarchaeology and the importance of public facing anthropology.

Welcome to the podcast Dr. Murray Cook, a Scottish born archaeologist working on various projects across Scotland. He runs a top notch field school, and introduces me to the inspiration behind the program. In addition to running the field school, Murray works on both the commercial and research sides of archaeology in Scotland, and discusses his roles on both sides. We also discuss his route to PhD through publication, and the benefits and drawbacks associated with that route. One of the projects he has been working on recently is digging a tartan mill in Stirling. This leads us to touch on my Campbell family Scottish heritage and my family tartan! Most of the episode is focused on his various field sites and the really cool things he is researching. This includes a Neolithic axe polishing rock that he hypothesizes could have been a pilgrimage point for people in the area to come grind their axes.

Today on the podcast we have two guests, Kayla Stevens, a senior Anthropology major at the College of Wooster, and Jeannette Lombardi, a first year masters student in Syracuse University's Forensic Science program. For 6 weeks this summer they were both a part of the Louise Lamphere internship hosted by the American Anthropology Association in Washington D.C. They would split their time between the AAA main office and their respective field sites. Kayla focused on interviewing participants and visitors from the Folklife Festival and identifying key themes and takeaways, while Jeannette worked at the Naval History and Heritage Command (Underwater archaeology branch) cataloging artifacts and gathering information on a potential submarine acquisition as well as a shipwreck. I loved getting to meet both of these women, and I hope you enjoy learning about their respective journeys into anthropology as well as details on their summer internship!

Happy Pride month! You'll notice our logo has changed to reflect this month of celebrating all kinds of love and gender identities, I hope you appreciate it.  Today, we have an accomplished guest, Angelo Robledo, an experimental archaeologist and science educator. Angelo recently got his BA from the University of Las Vegas Nevada, and will be pursuing his graduate education at University College Dublin. Angelo has lived in Las Vegas his whole life and has a deep appreciation and connection to the desert there. In elementary school, he became enthralled with an ancient hunting tool called the atlatl. The interest was furthered when they took a class field trip to Atlatl Rock nearby. Since then, Angelo has been crafting his own tools (both stone and atlatls) and is even a part of the World Atlatl Association. We discuss the history of these tools, the various materials they are made of, and dating of these weapons. We also discuss bioarchaeological evidence of atlatl elbow that could help push back the date for these tools.  Angelo is the youngest guest to ever be featured on the Ologies podcast with Alie Ward, which is currently the #1 science podcast in the world. We talk about how this opportunity came to be and how it has impacted him since the episode aired. https://www.alieward.com/ologies/experimentalarcheology Angelo has goals to continue to educate and work in science communication  Instagram @idigit1st Twitter @idigit1st https://worldatlatl.org/ Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

Welcome to the podcast Associate Professor of Anthropology at UC Santa Barbara, Dr. Amy Boddy. Dr. Boddy specializes in evolutionary approaches to human health and researches topics like comparative oncology, maternal fetal transfer and conflict, and much more. Dr. Boddy discusses her academic journey as a first generation student, starting with community college in Michigan and then onto Wayne State where she received her BA and PhD. Dr. Boddy has always been drawn to human health, biology and evolution, but it wasn't until her senior year of college she discovered how she could use an anthropological lens to study the questions she wanted to. We then move into her experience as a post-doc and moving internationally with a young child. Prior to her appointment at UCSB, she worked at the Comparative Oncology Center at Arizona State University where she was a professor. While she still works with this team today, in 2017 she accepted a professor position at UCSB. Currently she teaches classes like Evolutionary Medicine, Human Reproductive Ecology, Genetics, and runs a great lab on campus. We talk the transition from ASU to UCSB, quarter versus semester system from student and professorial point of view, as well as her takeaways from online learning. Currently, she and a team are investigating microchimerism, or the transfer of cells between mother and baby during pregnancy. She has obtained blood samples from a hospital in Santa Barbara to further research these fascinating cells and their role in immune response.

Welcome to the podcast Dr. Nicholas Malone, primatologist, evolutionary anthropologist, now not so secret surfer, and lecturer at The University of Auckland! Dr. Malone was a super fun guest to interview and on this episode we dive into a wide variety of topics including his favorite classes to teach, the inspiration for his new book title "The Dialectical Primatologist," as well as his advice to students. We talk his time studying endangered primates being sold in public markets of Java and his work there with Javan Gibbons. His time spent on Java during his PhD influenced him to continue work on Java, unlike a lot of other primatologists studying monkeys on other Indonesian Islands. Dr. Malone completed his MS at Central Washington University under the mentorship of Dr. Agustin Fuentes, and then his PhD with Joanna Lambert at the University of Oregon continuing to work in Indonesia. For his post-doc he went to the Congo to study Bonobos which he describes as a period of personal and professional growth.  He talks about journalling and ethnography in the field and the role they play in his work and specifically his writing. We also talk about his recent book, his writing process, influences including the 1985 book The Dialectical Biologist, and the unifying question of the book.

Welcome to the podcast Phd candidate at Kent State, Rose Leach Basom! Rose has a background in evolutionary and biological anthropology and is pursuing a career in forensic anthropology. We discuss being an intersectional anthropologist and how to communicate how anthropological skills can benefit younger students, even in their everyday life. We then move into her research while pursuing her master's at Texas Tech. Her research centered around the selection pressures involved in how pelvic shape has changes with the invent of cesarian sections. She also details her field school selection process, explaining that paleoanthropology field programs in Africa were very cost prohibitive. This led her to a program through Texas Tech in Belize, where she was a student and returned for two seasons as a field director. Rose then took some time off after her masters, working as a death investigator and autopsy tech to get some experience in forensics before pursuing a PhD. She also had the opportunity to work as a researcher at Kyoto University for ten weeks conducting a research project through the primate research center. Currently, Rose is working on a way to introduce anthropology and evolution to historically underserved communities, through a board game company of her own invention Stemsapien games! https://stemsapiengames.com/ https://mobile.twitter.com/rosesleach https://roseleach.com/ Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

Introducing UC Santa Barbara alum and current UCLA postdoc Dr. Kendra Calhoun! Kendra is a sociocultural linguist who has broad research interests and experiences but her current projects are focused on African American language and culture in new media forms, such as TikTok. She did her graduate education at UCSB under Dr. Bucholtz, before pursuing post doctoral studies at UCLA. She comments on how being a Black woman in academic affected her journey and how she found community within a predominantly white program. My favorite part of the interview was discussing her memories of the rise and fall Vine, MySpace, Facebook and the impact each had on culture. Her newest project focusing on African American speech and videos on TikTok is fascinating!! This is one of those must listen episodes, including a chat on why referring to scholars of color as “well-spoken” or "articulate" is a racist micro aggression. I appreciate Kendra's vulnerability and poise navigating explaining the connotations of phrase, and I think everyone can benefit from understanding how our language can belittle minority communities, particularly from a the perspective of a linguist.

We begin this episode with Dr. Brian Fagan, legendary archaeologist and independent scholar, detailing the various animals he has. We then touch on a wide range of topics: his philosophy about teaching, the UCSB campus back in the beginning and the growth in the 80's, as well as his time as a student at Cambridge. He details what classes were like at Cambridge, and how different the class style was from UCSB. He found the transition to large classes at UCSB much more in-personal. What he is perhaps best know for is his writing, he has 9 publications - with 2 coming out this year. About 8 years ago he patterned with Nadia Durrani, who is a co-author on several of these publications. He says having her as a writing partner has been incredible and they edit seamlessly, while also her own experiences add a new depth to the work because she can speak to things he's not an expert in (human diversity, feminism, Middle Eastern culture). We also discuss his many hobbies, including sailing, sea kayaking, yacht journaling, raising rabbits, and even driving luxury cars.

This week, my lab mate Griffin Fox sits down to chat with me about his experiences thus far in archaeology. Griffin's collegiate journey began at Moorpark Community College (California), where he began to take Native American studies and archaeology classes. He then had the opportunity to work with Dr. Andrew Kinkella (Season 1 Episode 39) on two indigenous American sites, as his first field training. Griffin reflects on his time in community college and offers advice for anyone considering transferring to a 4-year University afterwards. In 2019, Griffin transferred to UC Santa Barbara, where he hit the ground running and started an internship with Kaitilin Brown his first day on campus! We reflect on our time working together for the P.L. Walker Bioarchaeology and Biogeochemistry laboratory, our team's effort in the recovery of Jack Cantin's remains and what it meant for Griffin. We also divulge some of our antics in the field including building a yurt, and protecting lizard eggs. The work Griffin did with Kaitlin Brown has recently submitted for publishing, after a successful virtual presentation at the SCA's this year.

Welcome Professor of Anthropology and Director of the Human Energetics Laboratory at Notre Dame, Dr. Cara Ocobock. We begin the episode by breaking down a piece Dr. Ocobock wrote for Sapiens called “Sexism Still Winning at the Olympics” https://www.sapiens.org/biology/olympics-sexism-regulations/. She explains how this article came about, and how it was important to collect lines of evidence surrounding the issue that were accessible for freshmen through seniors in her anthropology of sports class. Discussions from these classes helped bust myths students thought to be true, like that testosterone is the sole key to athletic success, and it inspired her to take this piece to a wider audience at Sapiens. She details her own experiences with sexism and harassment as a female athlete, but explains how it was an experience she has taken a lot from. https://www.sapiens.org/biology/female-male-athletes-differences/ Cara also is very close with her family, and during the pandemic she decided to create a lab manual of science experiments for her niece Ruby. Well, upon completion she posted it on Twitter and it's been a HUGE success! Check it out for FREE below. Ruby's Lab Manual: https://sites.nd.edu/cara-ocobock/outreach/rubys-laboratory-manual/ Her academic research focuses on cold climate populations and the physiological adaptations required to survive in harsh environments.

Welcome to the podcast Dr. Joshua Berson, an independent researcher, author, and former Berggruen fellow who received his PhD in History and Sociology of Science at the University of Pennsylvania. Josh has penned three novels, Computable Bodies, The Meat Question, and The Human Scaffold. https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520380493/the-human-scaffold https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/computable-bodies-9781472530349/ https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/meat-question We gush about our love of paper books and how we miss spending hours reading at bookstores. I ask how or if this affected the way he has written to his audience, knowing they most likely wouldn't be picking up the book in a store. This leads him into speaking about the process and thoughts put into his first book Computable Bodies. Next we touch on his second publication, the Meat Question, again diving into process and how the book formed over many years. He describes the goal of this book as to put the idea of what it means to be human and to consume animals in broader terms than just arguments for health and environment. Josh guides us through each step of inspiration, revision, and the review process in detail. Even describes what the face of meat looked like to him. Ultimately it was a paper he wrote “The Charisma of Meat” that sparked the substance of the book. The paper that inspired the Human Scaffold, his most recent publication was a 2004 paper by Joseph Henrick, and the discourses it launched. Josh enjoyed the technical questions it proposed, but wanted to examine empirical archaeological data from Tasmania for a new take. He also explains the takeaways he hopes readers get from reading the Human Scaffold.

Please join me in welcoming Dr. Megan Carney, Professor of Anthropology at the University of Arizona to the podcast! She also received here graduate degree at UC Santa Barbara! Dr. Carney is a sociocultural anthropologist who works with migrant communities conducting ethnographic research on food insecurity as well as the social dynamics of displacement and migration. A lot of her early work, that composed her first book, was conducted in Santa Barbara, working with migrant women from Mexico and Central America (Honduras, and Guatemala), examining the issue of food insecurity in an agriculturally productive region. "The Unending Hunger:" https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520285477/the-unending-hunger After completing her PhD, Megan immediately began working in Italy in 2014 coinciding with the Arab Spring. She was fascinated by the discourses surrounding immigration at the time. Immigrants coming across the Mediterranean were dying at sea due to governments refusing to take responsibility, a real crisis that is a result of social and political failings. Megan published her second book on this subject entitled “Island of Hope, Migration and Solidarity in the Mediterranean:” https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520344518/island-of-hope Terra Firma film: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terraferma_(film) She herself identifies with the right to food/food sovereignty movement that is dissatisfied with food security being the end goals. This movement believes this is not sufficient rather, they want to push to make food a human right. Currently the US does not recognize food as a human right, so right to food is working against transnational food companies, and working towards making food a fundamental human right. They think food is not a commodity, and it should not be controlled by private companies trying to make a profits. They believe there should be dignity in how food is distrusted. Dr. Carney also lays out techniques for ethnographic life history interviews and shares some stories. She talks about the transition to the University of Arizona in 2017 and outlines then classes she teaches and has created, as well as the topics she's passionate about teaching like “black food matters.” She discuses the research and ethnographic data collection process, and discusses the benefits of long term ethnographic work. She explains why writing the second book was actually harder to write than the first. She is also the Director of the Center for Regional Food Studies, a center that conducts research related to issues locally in borderland regions but is also involved across critical food studies. https://crfs.arizona.edu/ Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

Welcome to the podcast, Katie Seeber! Katie is an archaeologist who focuses on community and heritage archaeology, with her most recent project and dissertation focusing on the Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park, the first town of freed slaves. Katie also breaks down her experiences with CRM Archaeology, as well as questioning why indigenous voices and presence was absent on certain projects she worked on. She explains incredibly upset she was to see that the tribes had no idea about the projects she was a crew member on, and knew going forward community based archaeology would be the center of her work. She offers some key tips for fieldwork and CRM, how to negotiate for a fair wage, and the importance of setting boundaries with your teammates.  She pursued graduate studies so she could be a crew chief, and run her own projects with ethical, sustainable, and community driven goals. She looked to do a degree in community and heritage archaeology, and the only people she could find doing similar work, were working in the Northeast, which brought her to Binghamton. Katie prioritizes valuing all team members and using everyone's unique set of skills to achieve their best work. She emphasizes the importance of developing niche skills that can add value to fieldwork, in her case this was becoming an expert in electrolytic reduction. Electrolytic reduction is the chemical process of rebuilding metal artifacts once they have been excavated. https://www.katieseeber.com/research https://twitter.com/seebeegeebees?lang=en https://www.redbubble.com/i/sticker/That-Anthro-Podcast-Sticker-by-thatanthropod/89065514.JCQM3 Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

Welcome back listeners to Season 2 Episode 1 of That Anthro Podcast. On this episode Dr. Maddy McAllister, a maritime archaeologist in Australia, gives us a glimpse into her job, researching shipwrecks! Maddy breaks down what maritime archaeologists study, what types of tools and historical documents they use, as well as correcting some common misconceptions about excavating underwater. Growing up she loved history, nautical tales, and the ocean. She was also an avid diver from the age of 14, so the field of maritime archaeology allowed her to combine all her passions. Before taking a job as a senior curator at the Museum of Tropical Queensland (https://mtq.qm.qld.gov.au/), she worked in cultural resource management for the state of Australia surveying reported shipwrecks. Her recent research at the Museum has focused on reported, but unidentified shipwrecks putting together the pieces of the mystery like a cold case detective. Most recently, the Museum reopened to the public after renovations and an exhibit refresh, allowing Maddy too curate and update some exhibits she's particularly proud of.

Welcome Sarah Alami Gouraftei, a PhD candidate at UC Santa Barbara in the Integrative Anthropological Sciences Laboratory (IAS). Sarah grew up in Morocco, and reflects on the social inequalities that were very apparent to her in Casablanca. She says she really saw the harm social injustices can do which ultimately is what really sparked her interests in behavior, the origins of human sociality and social hierarchies, wealth inequality, and gender inequalities. She also talks about how she really admires the solidarity and hospitality of people in Morocco, explaining that in Morocco it is very important for people take care of their social relations. We discuss a project she is looking forward to post-PhD studying social ties, relationships, and gender inequalities in Southeastern Morocco; as well as all the details on the questions she is studying for her dissertation. Lastly, we talk about some of her fondest memories from working in the IAS Lab, and the excellent experiences she has had with her advisor Dr. Micheal Gurven. https://www.anth.ucsb.edu/people/sarah-alami-gouraftei Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

IN SEARCH OF CULTURE© 2021 VOL.1 ISBN 978-976-96650-2-6Overall In Search of Culture© 2021is deemed a scholarly, analytical intellectual conversation which I ensued as an Author, Cinematographer, Media Arts Major, License Cultural Practitioner and Publisher. In navigating this processI mirrored the way of life of an archaeologist in order to get at the cultural evidence. In this process I used my research skills as a vehicle which included my lens to dig through the layers of built-up information and material to try to understand the processes through which the layers were built up over time, and to find any critiques and exposés buried within the layers. This conversation helped me develop analytical tools for interpretation, reading and understanding and a wide range of cultural practices and forms, past and present. For me it certainly is no myth but an unquestionable dialogue and a doctrine that evolves and involves what, when, where, when and how at the same time the way of life of practitioners thus creating an intellectual environment for enquiry. This exposition creates space for the self-determination theory because of the fundamental psychological needs which must be fulfilled for wellbeing and growth.The same is a theory that underpins this discourse while the approach of Rapport-based communication is critical. At the end of the day when the proverbial dust is settled In Search of Culture© 2021 implies and implicates these practitioners because it is their way of life which is deemed culture but also imputes human behaviour which determines culture and culture determines behaviour across time and space. Importantly, In Search of Culture© 2021is a cultural conversation which is verbalised in podcast 113 captured in 13 chapters and framed ISBN 978-976-96650-2-6WORKS CITEDGittens,William  Anderson, Author, Cinematographer Dip.Com., Arts.

On this episode I chat with Rhian Dunn, a UCSB Alumni who is currently pursuing her PhD in Physical Anthropology with a specialization in Forensic Anthropology at Michigan State University. Prior to that she received her MS in Forensic Anthropology at Mercyhurst in Erie Pennsylvania, studying vertebral elements for ancestry estimation. She emphasizes the importance of the training she received in methods and learning how to improve the replicability of testing. Rhian explains her passion for forensics, saying how the focus on the individual identification and applying her skills to accomplish this, can really have an impact of forensics on the community level. She had the opportunity to travel to Puerto Rico and assist the ME and board certified Forensic Anthropologists in identifying human remains from backlogged cases. She reflects on her time at UCSB, what she's learned along her journey, and how she still hopes to one day participate in a field school! We breakdown what the lab and programs are like at MSU and what an average day is like for her in the Forensic Lab! Rhian pushes herself to search out other perspectives and methods that will improve her skills, including being involved in the Campus Archaeology Program at Michigan State.

Welcome Professor of Archaeology at Moorpark College, Dr. Andrew Kinkella! To start off our discussion we go back to Dr. Kinkella's undergraduate days at UC Santa Barbara, and how it guided his journey in Anthropology. Hear about his Intro to Archaeology teacher, Professor Brian Fegan, and how his captivating teaching style inspired Kinkella to want to do the same thing in his teaching. We emphasize the importance of work life balance, having outside passions, and taking a double major or classes outside of your major. He breaks down his first internship and field experience with Anabelle Ford in Belize looking at Maya sites, and how it ignited a love of traveling and fieldwork. He also breaks down his various roles at Moorpark College, including running the Moorpark College Archaeological Program.

Alicia Boswell is an Assistant Professor in UC Santa Barbara's History of Art and Architecture department, and focuses her research (and teaching) around themes of ancient Andean Archaeology, conservation, cultural heritage, craft production, cultural landscapes and much more that we will discuss in today's episode. Since she began her journey as an undergraduate Peru has been an important area of study for her. She talk about her project working outside of Trujillo, and what she loves about working in and exploring Peru. Dr. Boswell also addresses Western biases in archaeology and how research is progressing in Peru, describing it as the researchers just now catching up on this ancient indigenous knowledge. We also talk about her impressive efforts to promote conservation and community work in local communities through M.O.C.H.E. Inc while she pursued her research questions in the area. https://www.arthistory.ucsb.edu/people/alicia-boswell https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-boswell-80364080/ Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

This episode with Adam Gamwell is jam packed with great conversations, stories about serendipitous timing and pertinent advice for anyone looking for new, creative ways to apply their anthropological knowledge more broadly. Adam tells about his graduate school experiences at Brandies, and how traveling to Peru as a graduate student ended up shaping his research to focus on quinoa. He also discusses how he started his podcast This Anthro Life (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/this-anthro-life/id871241283?i=1000493151025) and how it has morphed over the years, including his new goals for the podcast's future. Then we dive into how he co-formed the American Anthropological Associations podcast library and the wonderful products and events that have stemmed from that collaboration. One of my favorite moments of the episode is how Adam describes the vibe of This Anthro Life saying, “TAL aims to capture the vibe of someone saying ‘Oh Anthropology, I took a class on that I college. I only took one but it's the class I'm always going to remember.'” Find Adam at the various social media listed below TAL - www.thisanthrolife.org Adam's website - Gamwell.design Missing Link Studios - https://www.missinglink.studio/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamgamwell/ Twitter - twitter.com/gamwell Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

This week I interview husband and wife writing duo, Dr. Lesley Newson and Dr. Peter Richerson, on their careers and their newest joint book, A Story of Us: A New Look at Human Evolution. We discuss how they met and decided to write the book in a style that targets a multi-level audience, not just other academics, and why they chose to tell the story of human evolution in a new way. Dr. Richerson feels as if all scientists are storytellers, and while he focuses on the "stones and bones," working with Lesley who has prior experience in publicizing science, helped them create a book that is engaging, educational, and furthers the examination of human evolution.

Today Dr. Jennifer Miller from the Max Planck Institute joins us today to talk about her work investigating research questions in Stone Age Africa, focusing on Ostrich eggshell beads (OES). Her PhD focused on these beads and their symbolic and cultural meanings, while also looking more broadly at multiple sites to see if there was any regional change or change throughout time. OES beads have been used for the last 50,000 years in Africa and Asia, and are still produced in Africa today; so she asks, have they changed throughout this time? Is there some sort of evolution evident in the beads themselves that could inform population differences and changes the way lithic and ceramic technologies do? Dr. Miller plans to present and publish these results soon. She also talks about working in cave structures, what technologies they use to map them, and what excavating in Africa is like, particularly a newer project at Panga ya Saidi cave in Eastern Africa ( https://www.shh.mpg.de/1466873 ). We end the episode with her very valuable advice for other researchers, and look forward to what future projects will hold for her.

Undergraduate student Tim James from the University of Mexico joins me today to talk all things paleontology and CRM archaeology (Cultural Resource Management). We discuss his unique background growing up visiting museums in New Mexico, and how being exposed to archaeological sites and indigenous people from such a young age really inspired him to study ancient material culture, and explore how it connects us all. We talk about ancient fossils in downtown LA, and his new job at the SWCA as an on call paleontologist an archaeologist. Which means he and the team are called in when construction crews are digging in a site and find fossils, or the team will survey/excavate if the site is suspected to have cultural materials. He also tells us a fun story about excavating and driving a 900 pound triceratops sacrum across the country from South Dakota (all legal and with proper authority of course!) to a museum in LA where it currently resides. He expresses his opinion that paleontology doesn't take into consideration early indigenous peoples finding fossils and how they would have explained them and incorporated these extinct animals into their mythology and oral histories; and that they should start to. https://maxwellmuseum.unm.edu/ Follow @thatanthropodcast on Instagram, and @ThatAnthroPod on Twitter for more behind the scenes content.

"Don't just treat the site of the pain, treat the root cause". You've probably heard or seen this. On the surface, it sounds attractive - what could be more valuable than treating the cause, rather than the symptom? However on closer inspection it turns out that there are gaping chasms of faulty assumptions underpinning this idea. PLUS: Will strength training make me stiff?

UCSB Associate Professor Dr. David Lawson joins us on the podcast to introduce his work in behavioral ecology, evolutionary approaches to human behavioral diversity, and anthropological contributions to global health. We also discuss his childhood in Northern Ireland, and how he stumbled into a biology degree at University College London, and then found a love for Anthropology. We compare and contrast his experiences in University in the UK, as well as his experiences teaching at an American institution. He serves as the graduate advisor in the Anthropology dept and highlights how sometimes the American academia PhD track can be limiting. He talks about his dissertation, and his approach to the research; take existing data and learn about the research process and methodology before going out and collecting data. Diving into the complex topic of child marriage, Dr. Lawson explains the context, anthropological and societal reasoning behind this phenomena, how young women in early adolescents have agency, and how his work strives to understand it.

This week's episode touches on some of the hard hitting questions and research being done by Dr. Raquel Pacheco, an assistant professor at UCSB, on race, gender, and migration, specifically focusing on researching these issues in Mexico. Dr. Pacheco grew up in a border town, and identifies as Chicana (defined as a woman who embracers her Mexican culture and heritage, but simultaneously, recognizes the fact that she is an American) and takes the time to explain her cultural affiliations as well as how she ended up falling in love with Anthropology. We discuss the book she is working on as well as the many fascinating projects she has done, as well as how she has tackled teaching Anth 125: The Anthropology of Gender at UCSB. Lastly, we touch on her inspiration, her partner Georgette Gomez who ran for Congress this term. Please enjoy and consider looking up her work, https://www.anth.ucsb.edu/people/raquel-pacheco.

Pregnancy is a fascinating time for many reasons, but key among them is the intensity of food taboos and perspectives on what is or isn’t good for neonatal health. My guest this week, Anu Lotay, is an anthropology PhD candidate at the University of Victoria and research director at VPIRG. She explores the unique and challenging field of pregnancy loss for women and their families in the Indian diaspora. She seeks to understand the roles of cultural, transnational family networks, gender differences, and experiences with Canadian healthcare systems to manage infant loss. In this episode, we explore how the role of food taboos and beliefs impact pregnancy within Indo-Canadian women, and how pregnancy loss is understood or experienced in relation to food. Anu discusses how food is seen as not only physically nourishing or harmful during pregnancy for Indian women, but also how food prep and sharing is used to symbolize different experiences and shape relationships between pregnant women and their mothers or grandmothers. Indo-Canadian women engage with multiple and often competing guidelines for pregnancy and loss in Canada, and Anu expertly navigates this complex issue throughout the episode.
