Submitted Apr 22, 2017 to Science Podcasts Joshua Hall and Daniel Arneman first met in 2002 during their grad school admissions interview. Over drinks at the end of the day, they scrutinized the pros and cons of each school they’d seen and despaired of ever making the “right” choice.
They ended up choosing the same graduate program, and over the next ten years faced more impossible decisions covering all the highs and lows of graduate school and careers in science. Looking back at the countless conversations that helped guide their paths, they wanted to ease the way for students, postdocs, faculty, and scientists that navigate these same hard questions every day. The Hello PhD podcast is your chance to join those late-night conversations about life and lab. So grab a drink, bring your burning questions, and let’s talk! |

Submitted Dec 29, 2016 to Science Podcasts A weekly news event in the world of astronomy as told by professional astronomer slackers. Bad humor, sci-fi jokes and clips are the norm. And since this is their day job, they often cover stories not picked up in the mainstream press and also respect the intelligence of the audience. Think Dr. Who combined with Carl Sagan and Car Talk. Hosted by Pamela Gay and Travis Searle. Also check out the Slacker Astronomy Extra Feed for bonus interviews and chit chat shows. Weekly astronomy news and slack.
