Collaborations
We love collaborative works! In fact, depending on how you cut it, most of our work might fall in to that realm if you count our professional guests, co-hosts, and guest blog posts. However, this section is dedicated to collaborative work the podcast has done in other people’s arenas. Where we’ve been guests, other work our co-hosts do, and some thoughts and ideas on what kind of things we would like to be a part of in the future.
If you would like to contact us about a collaborative concept or idea, please contact us!
Guest Appearances
In June of 2018, Kirsten Lopez and Emily Long made a guest appearance on the Seven Ages Audio Journal to discuss women in the field of archaeology and the importance of femenine voices in the media.
Other Projects
Sara Head is a well-known co-host on a long-running blog and podcast, Archaeological Fantasies. You can find new and archived episodes, blog entries, and fun discussions exploring pseudoscience and her new podcast on paranormal archaeology.
Go Dig a Hole is a podcast out of Portland, Oregon that was first started at the Archaeology Podcast Network alongside Women in Archaeology. The founder Chris Sims had roped Kirsten Lopez into recording a couple sessions in person, and she was hooked! Operating out of a small independent recording studio in Portland, they host local archaeologists, artists, and fellow podcasters into fun conversations, political diatribes, and ethical quandaries.
Chelsi Slotten worked with the Smithsonian Institute of Arctic Studies during her PhD program with American University in Washington D.C. in the early days of the podcast. Her work there included a number of blog posts for their blog, Magnetic North:
