In this week's episode Austin and Ulysses discuss the ICONIQUE SCIENTIST Charles Turner and their contributions to entomology.

We round out the episode with SCIENTIFIC NOMENCLATURE by spinning some entomology/arachnology inspired drag names, QUEER RANTING about twitter, and lastly discussing the submitted QUEERY asking how to balance academia and a social life. Join us back here in the first week of august to discuss Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson along with space exploration!

We want to acknowledge that we are researching, recording, and editing this podcast on the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprising the Siksika, Piikani, and Kainai First Nations), as well as the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations). The city of Calgary is also home to Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3.
As biologists, we rely on knowledge pertaining to the land to understand energy flow - Indigenous folks have realized this long before modern biology. It is therefore critical to acknowledge the traditional knowledge, methods, and caretaking of Indigenous peoples towards the land. We encourage the support and exchange of resources designed to help reduce systemic inequities in academia and society in general. Given the overturning of Roe Vs. Wade in the states, we would like to highlight the Indigenous Women Rising organization.
