37 min - Dead & Buried: The History of Burial Practices with Amy ManlapasLet's talk about death, baby! Burying and memorializing the dead is typically thought of as a distinctly human (or at least hominid) act. In this episode, Meagan is joined by Substitute Sister and history teacher, Amy Manlapas, to talk about what that has looked like for the last few hundred thousand years (we've been digging graves for a long time!). Starting with the 400,000 year old (and pre-burial-practices) Sima de los Huesos (Pit of Bones) in Spain, we dig through the history of graves leading up to the modern cemetery.**You can find Amy on TikTok @amymanlapas or through her website: https://amy-elizabeth.net/.**Want to listen without the ads?

1 hr 20 min - The End of the WorldSeveral times throughout human history, people have experienced extreme events that made them believe their world might be coming to end. In this episode, we discuss two of these terrifying times, the Late Antique Little Ice Age that began around 536 CE, and the Dust Bowl that plagued American and Canadian prairies from 1930-1936. We then journey further back in time to discuss the mass extinction events that have occurred several times across Earth's history, and take a look forward at what might ultimately destroy the planet we call home.**Want to listen without the ads?
