  • Summary

  • REMINDER: We’re running another cohort of SciComm STEP next spring! Applications are live right now on our website (MeteorSciComm.org)! 🥳

    In this fast-paced episode (with a few audio flickers, boo Wyoming wind that knocks out the internet), we make this honest podcast about scicomm with impact a bit #overlyhonest. We tackle:

    • Why we think academia still matters
    • Why people “valuing” scicomm ain’t what we need
    • The truth that professional development is too-often worse than no investment/change at all
    • A tough reality: there’s no one place to go to “level up” your scicomm career if you’re beyond-beginner
    • How we deal with (the unavoidable, we argue) jealousy of being advanced scicomm'ers
    • How to stop getting in your own way with your scicomm project/funding pitches

    Dig in for yourself:

    • What’s a scicomm change you’re going to make in 2024?
    • And, what’s one honest thing about scicomm systems that you think needs to be said out loud?!

    We love you for being part of the Meteor community for another season! 💖 Stay connected with us on BlueSky at @bgmerkle.bsky.social and @vgwschutte.bsky.social.
