Dave, Garth, and Eric discuss the genesis of the idea for this podcast series and the need in general for late career faculty to be able to connect with others in similar situations. Dave provides a sneak preview of some of the issues that come up across the episodes. The series is intended not just for faculty who are late in their careers, but also for those in early or mid-career (like Garth!) who might benefit from thinking about what their later career may look like.
