Ep. 27 - Chris, Laurie, and Jennifer

Today I'm joined by Dr. Laurie Brown and Dr. Chris Condit, retired professors in the Geoscience Dept. at UMass. They tell the story of how they met and fell in love doing field work in the Springerville volcanic field in northern Arizona. Laurie explains her work studying Earth's magnetic field as it's recorded in the rock record (paleomagnetism), and talks about being the first woman professor hired in her department. Chris discusses his work mapping volcanoes and lava flows, and training NASA astronaut candidates how to do geologic mapping and sampling. Local comedian Jennifer Myszkowski joins as co-host. You can also find Jennifer hosting the Lady Haha Comey Open Mic at Holyoke Hummus in Holyoke, MA and hosting Bear Swaps Saturday mornings from 8-10 on Bear Country 95.3 FM.
