Our story will take a brief pause while I'm on summer vacation and fieldwork, including rocks more than three billion years old in Western Australia.But don't worry! In the meantime, there will be a seven-part miniseries on the oldest rocks of each continent. Tune in to find out which are closest to you, or use these as guides for a geology-themed vacation! After then, we'll return to the Hadean world to investigate the origins of life. Until then, have a pleasant summer, and thank you all for listening!Website: https://www.bedrockpodcast.com

This podcast starts at the beginning of Earth's prehistory and works forward through time.  Bedrock will explore the first 90% of Earth’s past, a time known as the Precambrian Era.  Before humans, before dinosaurs… there was the Precambrian.
The Earth was an incredibly alien world, but not a dead one. 
Along the way, you will build a mental toolkit to see the world like a geologist. You will never look at a mountain, the moon, or pond scum in quite the same way again.

Welcome to Bedrock.
