Over 15 years of ocean science and conservation online
Between the ramp up in deep-sea mining and the publication of my Jabberwock adventure, I did a lot of podcasts this quarter. Listen to some of my favorite interviews, below. Deep-sea mining keeps heating up. I joined Hopkins Public Health on Call to talk about the current state of deep-sea mining and what the future … Read More “Deep-sea mining, forest ecology, and Dungeons & Dragons: all the podcasts I’ve been on this quarter” »
Listen to Kernean George, Marcella Harris, and Brett Steigerwaldt on The Rumcast talking about the Rosalie Bay Distillery: Dominica’s First-of-Its-Kind Rum Distillery. Meanwhile, the Cephalosquad seems have largely forgotten that multiple party members are missing and have wandered of to a fancy castle to start an entirely different mission.

Dugongs and Seadragons is the only Dungeons and Dragons Podcast featuring actual marine science professionals playing D&D 5e while talking about marine science, conservation, and all things ocean. It’s been going for a long time, and jumping into the mid-point of an actual play podcast can feel like a daunting task. But we’ve got you … Read More “We Leased the Kraken!

It finally happened. Three years after Chris Parsons and friends announced their podcast on this very blog, I have joined the Cephalosquad (I actually joined almost a year ago, but we have A Backlog). Meet Patches Tenderfoot, a rabbitfolk necromancer who believes that if he delves deep enough into the arcane arts, he can de-extinct … Read More “Want to join the Cephalosquad? Fight the Kraken!?
