Love this podcast! I have no training or education in anthropology or archaeology and I find the content really interesting - educational AND entertaining. Keep it up boys!

The guys are really fun and bring a human element to archaeology. It’s fun to see archaeology presented in a way that makes it seem much more fun and relatable as a career!

Long time listener first time reviewer. I love the show and listen when new episodes are dropped. I do CRM in New Mexico and listen while I survey. I like that you all are trying new things with the show and keeping it fresh. Also since at least one of y’all is a paleo guy you might be interested in the current ENMU field school at Blackwater Draw over by Clovis,NM. Dr. Brandon Asher is the lead Arch out there if you all every want to talk to the guy that manages the Clovis type site.

I’m not even an archeologist and I love this show. It’s so much fun. I’ve learned so much. And the guys are all knowledgeable and funny. Definitely recommend.

5 for content. 4 for execution. If I could give 12 points, I'd rate this podcast a 4.5 If you can brace yourself for the numerous bro-isms and accept that these men are actually academics then you'll enjoy the ride. I always find overlap in the topics covered and my own interests. Currently, I'm actively following Carlton's underwater archaelogy adventure in the DR

Archaeology, anthropology, and prehistory are fascinating to me but I didn’t study any of these things in school. They have a lot of knowledge about these topics, especially in the North American context. And their relationship as three friends who went through school together makes their conversation interesting and fun. Most of their episodes are interviews with an expert in a specific field. They always devote a part of their discussions to insider knowledge about careers in these fields. That’s not directly applicable to me, but I find it useful bc it demystifies it a bit and helps me understand the background that these academic discussions are coming from. They recently received feedback that they should try to make their podcast more approachable to non-experts, which I largely agree with. I also hope to see more overview episodes, since it’s sometimes hard for me to grasp the context of the discussion. Also I sent them an email asking if Neanderthals had dogs and Connor got back to me with both an answer and a reading assignment! The answer was ‘probably no bc of timing, but here’s a book from someone who disagrees with me on the timing.’ I really appreciated that he took the time for that. Also, his recommendation to read someone who disagrees with him is a green flag. One of the best things about our time and place is that we can have direct access to expertise on nearly any subject and these guys are a good example of that. They really put in time educating people about their field and it clearly comes from a passion for what they study.

They’re doing the work and talking about it with help from friends and colleagues

Accessible and informative, deserves a listen.

I love the way this podcast tackles current issues in archaeology with knowledgeable guests and in an entertaining way. They know their stuff but they don’t take themselves too seriously. It’s fun-just like having a beer with a bunch of nerdy cool archaeologists.

I have been following David & Ian on Youtube & Instagram and happily JUMPED into the rabbit hole of Archeology, Anthropology, & Ethnocynology. And man I cant get enough. 😵‍💫 I even have a favorite early ancestor thanks to plastic spoon boi (Stefan) and as a cat person, a new appreciation for dogs thanks to David. Please keep on giving us amazing material through these many platforms. Im living a distant dream through you all 🥹
