On this Jeffisode, Alana Darcher drops by the crab shed to discuss her research in the field of computational neuroscience, as well as her journey from small-town PNW kid to published brain researcher.

Alana was a great guest and we had a lot of fun recording this show. Neuroscience has always been fascinating to me and it is exciting to get a guest of her caliber. This is a show that you don't want to miss!

Anything worth your energy is going to be scary, especially at the start. Life is innately endowed with so much hardship that sometimes we forget that we can CHOOSE how we suffer, and that choice will be what determines our future. Suffer well, and reap the benefits; suffer like a fool and nothing will ever change.

In this jeffisode, we learn why Jeff wanted to do a crazy thing like start a podcast and he explains what he will be covering in upcoming jeffisodes.

Listen along as Jeff learns by trial and error, that podcasting is not as easy as it looks...
