    In this episode, Julie is our cohost for the first time and we talk with John White, a First Americans Archaeologist studying the earliest peopling of North America. He discusses how he found his way to his specific niche of the field, what questions he is trying to answer, some awesome and ingenious interdisciplinary techniques that help us understand ancient landscapes, a day in the life of a field archaeologist, and how to move yourself closer to getting involved in the field of archaeology. Lastly, he goes into details about some very exciting (but as yet unpublished) findings, teasing an upcoming publication.
