Somehow made it 9 months into 2025 without a single episode about teeth. Dr. Blankenship-Sefczek fixed that this week 😁 🦷

Y'all are getting an incredibly thoughtful and coherent discussion of frailty, intersectionality, the morbidity-mortality paradox, the osteological paradox, and bias in research with
@dryaussy.bsky.social this week.

Proud of the Mississippi State University Forensic Recovery Unit, a collaborative effort between Mississippi State University Police Department and the Cobb Institute of Archaeology, Mississippi State University to bring resolution to missing persons cases around the state.

If you listen to this & want more, I want to remind you I have an ENTIRE BOOK that completely debunks popular understandings of the menstrual cycle and teaches you not only the problems with the eugenic history of this science, but helps you understand the real science:

You don't have to be a gene-ius to learn allele bit about DNA from Dr. Erlich's episode.

But seriously: Check out today's show. Dr. Erlich was there when PCR tests were invented, and he had a front-row seat to DNA in forensics and paleoanth. His stories are incredible.

(ps: sorry about the puns)

First primatology episode of the year with @fuzzyatelin.bsky.social! This interview has everything! Epigenetics! Fieldwork! Colorful monkey genitals! Listen now: open.spotify.com/episode/6vOZ...

To the gender essentialists who listen to my show: Your sad, narrow, unscientific views bum me out. I hope you can open your mind (and heart) enough to enjoy the rich tapestry of humanity that surrounds us.

In the meantime, I'm going to moderate the hell out of your comments.

After listening to this episode while editing, it's crazy how many times I say "I'd never thought about this before…” while talking to @kateclancy.bsky.social. Listen to her episode now, read her book, email me to gush about it ❤️

finally catching up on overdue correspondence from AABA, and my assistant is being super helpful and not at all distractingly cute

i'm headed to #AABA2025 this year! want to grab coffee? want to do a quick interview? feel free to DM me on bluesky or email me at gaby.lapera(at)anthrobiology.com

I'm kind of in love with @archaeo-b.bsky.social after interviewing her for the show. Check it out: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/d...

Looking for a grad student in biological anthropology to interview in 2025. Is that you? Do you know the perfect person? DM me :)

Hey y'all! Check out the interview with @jessegoliath.bsky.social. I can genuinely say this is the most fun I've ever had talking about sad but important things. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...

Interviewed the delightful Dr. Drea from @duke-university.bsky.social about mechanisms of female dominance. Come for the science, stay for the tips on circumventing your landlord's pet prohibition and a new appreciation for the *comparative* ease of human birth.

i just discovered you can leave comments on podcast episodes on spotify. brb - replying to all of the very nice people who had something to say 🥹

A new Bluesky starter pack listing biological anthropologists. Let me know if you want to be added go.bsky.app/CnJLf95

I'm planning my 2025 line up. Anyone know any kick-ass biological anthropologists that I should get in touch with? Are you a totally rad biological anthropologist yourself that wants a platform to talk about your research? Slide on into my DMs 👀
