    Holly's Human Moment & Other Reflections

    Holly's Human Moment & Other Reflections

    In 2023's final episode of Wonder, Holly & Anthony take time to reflect on the busy year that's been and the feelings that drive our Geo Co passion. We meander through perspectives on our 'human moment', the apparent paradoxes of our earth-reliant material world, and how conversations about earth stewardship can foster connected futures for all.



    *a caution about Holly's recycling comment: we don't let these ruminations deter us from taking personal responsibility for environmental good - recycle your milk cartons!

    Dr Indrani Mukherjee | On Ancient Oceans & the *Brilliant* Billion

    How are wacky elements in ancient oceans linked to the explosion of complex life? What do these ocean chemistries reveal about hidden seafloor ore? Why are we all science fighting about the 'Boring Billion'? Geo Co. is thrilled to welcome the fabulous Dr Indrani Murkerjee, lecturer at UNSW, to Wonder!

    Journey into Deep Earth

    Journey into Deep Earth

    Journey into the centre of the earth, anyone!? Geoscientists Holly Cooke & Dr Anthony Reid wonder what the earth looks like deep beneath our feet ... right down into the liquid inner core. How hot does it get? How far is it from our feet on the surface? How do scientists know the inner structure of the earth? And what deep secrets do earthquakes reveal?

    MIWATCH research group | The Rocks We Mine & Leave Behind

    Welcome to the world of mine waste with the Mine Waste Transformation through Characterisation (MIWATCH) research group from the W.H Bryan Mining Geology Research Centre, Sustainable Minerals Institute, University of Queensland.


    This is a must-listen for anyone in the geosciences, minerals and resources industry who has ever wondered where our beloved mineralised rocks wind up 'in perpetuity' ...


    Associate Professor Anita Parbhakar-Fox, Dr Laura Jackson, and Dr Kam Bhowany join Holly Cooke and Dr Anthony Reid for a high energy conversation about all the rocks we leave behind as we mine our modern world. (Views and opinions are their own and not that of University of Queensland.)

    Dr Marissa Betts | Cambrian Science Fights & Linking Landscapes with Culture

    Welcome to Wonder with geologist, palaeontologist, short-film director and all-round geo-legend Dr Marissa Betts! Come along on our journey of small shelly fossils to Jurassic Park and science fights about Cambrian geology. By exploring big themes like empowering cultural connection to landscape and balancing both scientific and spiritual narratives, we crack open a chat about power of different ways of knowing to build better people-planet futures.

    Voyages in Deep Time

    Voyages in Deep Time

    This episode sees Holly & Anthony on an epic voyage through deep time. Join us in our time-travels as we grasp the vast depths of earth history and explore how humanity perceives time in the present. We muse on how rocks encode both eons and mere moments from ancient asteroids to Burrungkuy rock art. Join us on our final (for now!) journey through earth's most fundamental story - that of the passage, and archive, of time.
