  • Wonderful!

    I love the podcast. I was just listening to some older episodes about the annual AAG conference. Will there be any discussion on the upcoming conference in March? As a first time student presenter, I’m very interested in content on that subject.

  • Love these folks

    I appreciate the news round ups, interviews (speleology episode was awesome), conference convos, and long/deep philosophical discussions. I creeped into Geography after my undergrad & I want to thank these folks for helping me get immersed in all things GISci. I’ve recommended the show to fellow students and instructors.

    Been absolutely loving their conversations on GIS and geography. Especially liked the recent philosophical episode on Space and Place. :)
