It's Not All About the Men! Cracking Human Evolution with Dr. Cara Ocobock
Welcome back to #TheStoryofUs, your favorite fireside chat style, and #Paleo Series! On this episode, we have another amazing guest—no surprise there. This time, we are honored to be joined by science communication master Dr. Cara Ocobock! Winner of the 2023 “AABA and Leakey Foundation Communication & Outreach Award in Honor of Camilla Smith,” we are not dealing with just any science communicator here! Join us as we have an excellent discussion on her work, which surrounds how people survive in the most extreme climates and the adaptations that they create to survive, as well as her incredible work on bringing “Women the Hunter” into the public eye, the idea that human evolution does always surround the work of men! We have an electrifying episode that you will not want to miss! If you learned something new today or just enjoyed the conversation, be sure to leave a like. It helps me out a great deal; it allows me to reach more people as I spread the story of our Human Origins! Don’t want to miss another episode? Be sure to subscribe! See you all next time!
