Publish, Perish or Podcast

This week Cameron, Gibbo and Andy discuss current alien influence on Earth. We play pick the fake. We then discuss the nuance required in co-supervision of a research student.

I can't believe it!

Publish, perish or podcast has made it to 100 episodes. Thank you very much to all of our regular listeners and I hope that we have many more episodes and fun recording sessions to share in the coming months or years!

This week Andy and Cameron discuss deep work, flipping classrooms, electronic farewell cards and knitting. Our topic is discussing 6 mistakes made by ECRs.

This week Andy and Cameron are looking for opportunity and positives from COVID-19. We also discuss elbow taps, hugging, hand shaking and determine what we want the post-lockdown world to be like with a game of Would You Rather?

This episode we review our years as academics and business owners! 

Was it good? Listen here!

This week Cameron and Andy are a bit quiet because they are recording in a meeting room at a University and discuss where Science would go on a holiday which is followed by a long discussion on the best toilet in the building.

Verbalize.Science is expanding and Cameron tells Andy some interesting Thesis submission stats and poses a publication ethical hypothetical.

They both have agendas in Pick the Fake.

Finally Andy explains that Research Group websites should be run like a business and gives some unique tips on what strategy to follow.

Unwitting sponsor for the week is the Casio 53W calculator watch - the best wrist based lab accessory of all time.

This week Andy and Cameron share their news for the last month including Cameron's beef with Dr. Karl and his recent gig at a science communication event. Meanwhile Andy is making money and has some strong opinions on panel sessions.

The topic this week is Cameron's career with some massive changes occuring since last recording.

We finish with a career version of 'Would You Rather'. 

Our unwitting future sponsor for the week is the Australian Research Council.

This week join us as we talk about referees and play spot the fake!
