Update

Life has been a bit chaotic lately, so I have had to hit pause on new episodes. But don’t worry—Nicholas (awesome producer) and I are planning to return with exciting new content in March! Thanks for sticking with us, and we can't wait to bring you more helpful and inspiring discussions soon!

Tails from a Vet Tech is a podcast dedicated to highlighting, educating, and advocating for veterinary, shelter, and behavior animal professionals. Our mission is to provide education, information, and dialogue that will create a supportive environment that empowers animal professionals to take care of themselves and the animals they work with. Tabitha and her amazing guests share reflections and experiences from their lives in shelter and vet med. We will have thought-provoking conversations about the ugly and beautiful moments and share success stories with the goal of supporting and inspiring others.

Time rules our lives. We wake, eat, work, and sleep on the clock. Our days unfold in a standardized symphony of alarm clocks, school buzzers, and meeting timers. Meanwhile, global positioning satellites measure time in millionths of seconds, and financial trades circle the planet at the speed of light. 

Time-keeping is among the greatest accomplishments of the human species – but somewhere along the way, we made a fundamental miscalculation: we began to mistake our clocks for time itself. 

Deep Time is a new series all about the natural ecologies of time from To The Best Of Our Knowledge and the Center for Humans and Nature — with support from the Kalliopeia Foundation. In Deep Time, TTBOOK will explore biological time, geological time, cosmic time, ancestral time. We’ll imagine time as a spiral, a loop, and also as an eternal present – as we learn to live beyond the clock.

“The Joy of Why” is a Quanta Magazine podcast about curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge. The mathematician and author Steven Strogatz and the cosmologist and author Janna Levin take turns interviewing leading researchers about the great scientific and mathematical questions of our time. New episodes are released every other Wednesday.

Quanta Magazine is a Pulitzer Prize–winning, editorially independent online publication launched and supported by the Simons Foundation to illuminate big ideas in science and math through public service journalism. Quanta’s reporters and editors focus on developments in mathematics, theoretical physics, theoretical computer science and the basic life sciences, emphasizing timely, accurate, in-depth and well-crafted articles for its broad discerning audience. In 2023, Steven Strogatz received a National Academies Eric and Wendy Schmidt Award for Excellence in Science Communications partly for his work on “The Joy of Why.”

Season 2 of the Eons podcast will be a longform exploration of a question we’re often asked in the comments section of our YouTube videos: how long could a human survive if they were dropped into a particular period of the geologic past?
