Description

In Episode 35 of The Seed Pod, guest Ryan Yohler shares stories from his studies in geology/geophysics and evolution. We discuss glaciers, slow slip events (similar energy release as earthquakes over time), mass extinction events, museums, Human evolution, and fossil discoveries. Ryan has been all over the world as part of these studies, and has met 'Lucy' and 'Ardi' our early human-like ancestors found in Africa. We talk about tracing history from apes to humans through bones, and the impacts of transitioning from climbing to being bipedal. As a passion project on the side, Ryan and his friends have studied the fossil record to investigate what our future records could look like... and let's just say future paleontologists may be a bit stumped!
