AnthroLore

Recorded Fall of 2025 Here, our new crew of Anthro students and I discuss the significance of Fear. How might we think of it within the lens of Anthropology? We discuss the many phobias and what scares us most. Goosebumps galore despite the need to project. :) My apologies to your ears for the volume shift.

Recorded in Spring Semester of 2025. As finals were nearing we wanted to discuss how to take care of ourselves and some of the pitfalls along the way. Sometimes the culture of care is just about capitalism and consumption. Here we discuss that and how to view self care as something we are all capable of doing, no strings attached.

In Spring of 2025, we took students from Arizona, some of whom have never flown anywhere before to visit my old haunting grounds of Gainesville, Florida. We got a great taste of old Florida including humidity, Spanish moss, Micanopy, author of the Yearling--Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings' homestead of Cross Creek, St. Augustine, and other locals. Here the students and I discuss what we did and how o...

Recorded Spring of 2025: If there's one thing that our students love, it is all things spooky! Doesn't matter what semester we're in, we go back to the fun. Here, we are sharing individual ghost encounters and getting ourselves sufficiently spooked out! Enjoy.

Recorded spring of 2025: We deep dive into the importance of the 4 fields and what interests us the most about each.

Oh my goodness, dare I say this one sounds pretty good compared to recordings from the previous semester. We had a great conversation looking at why we have Ethics in Anthropology and how important it is to Do No Harm. Welcome to the Spring Semester of 2025! Thanks for joining us! Originally recorded 2/4/25.

Originally recorded on 10/1/24. You can always tell who is sitting closer to the microphone (sorry for my yelling), but we're back and there's a chance you might be able to hear us this time! Please stay with us, we're trying to get this sounding better. Enjoy our venture into 1692.

Continued from our recording on 3/5/24.

Originally recorded on 3/5/24. Sound quality is still not the best but man, we had fun researching these! I hope you can hear us well enough to enjoy them.

Continuing our recording from 11/14/23, we are concluding our Egyptology discussion, despite the poor sound quality. Please be patient with us...the sound will get better soon.

Recorded 11/14/23 The sound quality is definitely lacking in this episode but we were so proud of it. Hopefully you are able to hear some of our comments.

Hi everyone! We've been MIA for quite a while due to significant technical issues. Our deepest apologies! But we never stopped recording and so, despite many technical issues as well as some sound issues, we're going to get caught back up. Sorry this episode has a lot of sound issues, please bear with us. Originally recorded on 9/26/23.

This time, in light of the Halloweeny mood, the gang is discussing all things vampire, immortality, death, and whether we glisten in the sunlight. The gang: Derik, Lauren, Alex, Kalitta, Nate, Liam, Taylor, and Lisa *Apologies for Lisa's loudness here--we didn't have headphones today. She's cringing.*

Welcome! Thanks for joining us. Here's a little information on AnthroLore is about and Anthropology in general. We're glad you're here!

The gang is back with new faces and new stories for the Fall semester, 2023! Today we're getting into the groove again with stories about Magic and Witchcraft. We've got a particularly spirit-minded group this semester so stay tuned for some more fun with us. Please note, the sound quality isn't the best on this issue since we have new people running tech this time. It will improve as...

Today we dive deep into our fascination about dragons and serpents in different myths, legends, and folklore. We talk about various serpents portrayed in pop cultures and worldwide and how they relate to some origin stories.  Also sorry about the beginning we had a little mishap with the audio. :)

Our aspiring anthropologists come together to discuss their favorite urban legends with the research they found.

Aspiring anthropologists talk about Disney's Ariel and her surrounding controversy along with other mermaids from different cultures to see how different cultures' mermaids are from each other. The speakers also tune into a first-hand account story of someone that has had an interaction with a mermaid and discuss what happened to them and what made the account so mystical or rather scary. AnthroLo...

Sorry about the audio, sounds a bit like we are underwater. Perfect for this episode, in which we talk about different flood myths from a few select cultures from around the globe. They range from creation stories to apocalyptic ones. Enjoy!
