Summary
00:00:00 -Ā Jorge Cham, ofĀ PhD Comics, joins the Paleopals to discuss his comic, his time in academia, and the path he took to transition to full time artist.
00:27:27 - Scholastic achievement makes people thirsty. Thus the Paleopals imbibe. Patrick pulls out a rye beer he'd been saving. Ryan thinks hisĀ Sour Apple SaisonĀ is thematic. Kelly eschews alcohol for Italian sodas and rockets. While Charlie is back on the IPA wagon with Widmer Falconer.
00:33:48 - In a first for Trailer Trash Talk, we cover a film not just with our guest, but by our guest. Jorge Cham sticks around to talk about his new indie movie based on his very own comics:Ā The PhD Movie. Potentially screening at aĀ university near YOU!
00:52:22 - We 'end' the show with an extended PaleoPOW featuringĀ questionsĀ regarding school from the Paleoposse! Kelly reads an e-mail Catherine asking how we each entered our respective fields. Ryan talks for too long. No one is surprised. Chad read anĀ article in the NY TimesĀ about how we teach math in the US and wants to know what the Paleopals think.Ā Ben's answer is available on the blog. And finally, Steve wants to know if the Paleopals are worried about over-specialization in science.
Thanks for listening, our blog has content which you can get atĀ Paleocave.com!
