  • Great Presentation and waiting for more!

    The Geological Expeditions of Yore’s first episode was so fun to listen to. The story telling includes passion, theatrics, and beautiful sound design. I enjoyed learning more about a geological icon, even though I’m not a geologist myself. I am excited to see what else the Geology Podcast Network puts out.
