The Cross Section of Oral History and Geology with Josh Wolford - Ep 133

In this episode, Carlton talks with Josh Wolford about his background in anthropology and his work on the relationships between Anishinaabe cosmology and the geologic/climactic events in the upper Great Lakes. Specifically on how they relate, where this fits in anthropology, ethno-geoarchaeology, and how we can look at other Indigenous creation stories for clues to our Paleolithic past.

Nor'eastern PaleoIndian Archaeology with Dr. Heather Rockwell - Ep 86

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Heather Rockwell, who is an Assistant Professor at Salve Regina University. Big surprise, she is another fellow University of Wyoming alum. We begin by asking about her developing years in archaeology and then delve into her choice of undergraduate and graduate programs. She explains how having a diverse committee for her Ph.D. at UW was ultimately helpful for her. We then ask Dr. Rockwell to do a deep dive into Northeastern Paleoindian Archaeology. We finish off talking about the academic job market and her upcoming paper with Dr. Madeline Mackie.

Stefan Milo 2: This Time It's Personal #Paleolithic - Ep 43

On this episode of A Life in Ruins podcast, we have a bonfire chat with YouTuber and Neolithic advocate, Stefan Milo. If you’re not familiar with Stefan, we introduced him in Episode 20. Or you may know him from his popular YouTube channel, “Stefan Milo.” We talk about the recent growth of Stefan’s channel and how he has now become the first full-time anthropology YouTuber!

We then quickly get into the Great Paleolithic-Neolithic War of 2020. This began as a meme and took off. It was fun for both our followers to follow and share along with.

We later have a serious discussion about the differences between the two periods and what it means for human history.
