I’m a huge fan of Initial Conditions. An extremely informative and well produced podcast. Love the hosts. Looking forward to many more season of this great content!

When a friend suggested this I was skeptical but it turns out I love physics history! The writing is great and I’m even learning a little bit about physics. A great addition to my podcast line up!

Informative and entertaining! Really happy to have this in my podcast feed, just the thing for my commute!

Such interesting topics and so well done. Really cool that they go into the archives for each episode

While the facts and circumstances surrounding Eunice Foote’s work are quite intriguing and the presentation of them is a positive step toward the long overdue exposition of known past scientific work by women; I found the presentation too speculative along the current ideologically driven agenda concerning equity in science. Actual documents such as letters or other supporting records are apparently non existent so it is inappropriate to stretch the known facts to fit such current memes. Such seeming misinformation is perhaps even a dis-service to her actual work if it compromises the size of the audience. An example of this concern is the question (which for some reason was left unanswered) and which might have bearing in regards to her overall attitude toward a career in science: “what was her second and final publication with AAAS about?” An interesting enough start for “Initial Conditions” however, that I will sample a few more.

I know this show isn’t about geology but it still rocks! Haha seriously though this show is super informational and just fun to listen to. The couple that host the show are clearly very knowledgeable and I can’t wait to hear future episodes.

Wow this is amazing! Can’t wait for more, love love love! So great to hear about overlooked history. Thank you AIP!
