Becoming a Historian with Alycia Asai

Welcome to Season Six of The Modern Scholar Podcast!

In this episode we nerd out with our FIRST EVER repeat guest—the wonderful and creative Alycia Asai from the Civics and Coffee podcast!

Alycia first appeared during Season Two, and I would encourage you all to taken a listen to that conversation here. Since that time, Alycia completed her MA in History from Sonoma State University, and in this episode we explore her graduate journey, her work as a podcaster, and her plans for the future!

Also—take a listen to Alycia's episode exploring history conferences, which we reference near the end of our conversation. It is a fantastic discussion of steps we can all take to make the most of our conference experience.
