Two geophysicists with PhDs, a love of unicorns, and zero filter sit down to talk science. Hosted by Dr. Heather Bedle and Dr. April Moreno-Ward, the podcast blends rigorous geoscience with unfiltered curiosity. Conversations start sensible, take unpredictable detours, and somehow land back on geology. It's not a lecture but a conversation for seasoned geoscientists, curious students, or anyone who stumbles in.

Human vs. Machine! And why the machine still needs a babysitter 29.06.2026 25min

Heather and April explore the world of machine learning in geoscience. Runaway robot vacuums, golden retrievers using calculators....We do talk about critical thinking skills in there somewhere, too.Listen and find out.

Channels, channels, and more channels; as far as the eye can see!April finally gets a full episode to talk about the thing she loves most, and Heather has no choice but to come along for the ride.From ancient civilizations to which state has the best-tasting dirt, and then disaster movies .... wait, what?
Drama Queens of the Subsurface 15.06.2026 26min

Seismic attributes have personalities. We're not taking it back.Dr. Heather Bedle and Dr. April Moreno-Ward break down the attributes they actually use, why some of them are quietly running the whole show, and why spectral decomposition shows up in full color and rainbows whether you asked for it or not. Amplitude is the colleague who says nothing for a year and then changes everything. Cosine instantaneous phase gives you perfect directions and forgets to mention the road is closed. And spectral decomposition? Drama queen. Confirmed.Plus the quiz is back. April is a split answer and owns it entirely.
How in the World Did We End Up Here? 08.06.2026 21min

We start the way all good science should start — with a personality quiz. From there, Dr. Heather Bedle and Dr. April Moreno-Ward introduce themselves the way they'd actually want to be introduced (no CVs, no titles, just the real version), trace the surprisingly winding roads that led two curious humans to geophysics, and somehow end up talking about why seismic data can be genuinely, unexpectedly beautiful.Also covered: what geophysics actually IS — explained in under a minute at a dinner party.Fair warning: there's a quiz, there's a detour, and there may be a channel in here somewhere.
