Dipping my toes into science-based podcasts… the infectious joy from the two hosts of Wonder makes this an accessible and entertaining listen! Loved hearing about Hedda’s research into glacial changes and will definitely listen to more episodes.
It’s always so good to hear people share their passions, you can hear the excitement in their voices.. and that’s infectious.
Thanks Anthony and Holly!

A science-forward show that consistently pairs fieldwork with laboratory insights to explore Earth systems, minerals, and planetary history. Episodes frequently thread together on-site geology with lab analyses, remote sensing, and international collaborations, covering topics from chromitites and carbonatites to critical minerals like lithium and indium. Notable strengths include accessible storytelling, a clear emphasis on real-world research workflows, and guests who bring field experience alongside technical expertise. The show also stands out for its international partnerships and its ability to translate complex geology into tangible implications for exploration, mining, and resource security.
