Two New Podcasts for Geosciences

December 12, 2023

During the past year, two podcasts were launched by scientists at the Jackson School of Geosciences: the “Water Resources Podcast,” hosted by Senior Research Scientist Bridget Scanlon, and the “Science, Y’all” podcast, hosted by graduate students Noah Benitez-Nelson and Nick Regier.

Scanlon started the “Water Resources Podcast” in February to spark discussion on water supply issues and solutions for sustainable water management around the globe. On each episode, she welcomes an expert guest for a chat about their water research.

On the “Science, Y’all” podcast, Benitez-Nelson and Regier interview members of the Jackson School’s research community, including students and faculty members. Each episode is 20 to 30 minutes and offers a chance to learn more about people at the Jackson School, particularly in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences.

“You meet people and see them in the hallway, but unless you’re working with them closely, that’s all you see,” Regier said. “This is a great means of just getting to know these faculty better and building deeper roots to the department.”

New episodes of the “Water Resources Podcast” air every other Thursday and are available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube. “Science, Y’all” episodes are available on Spotify.
