Today the crew tackles a heavy subject: substance abuse and addiction in archaeology. It’s a problem in CRM archaeology for legal, behavioral, and performance issues.

On today's show we talk about the laws and regulations regarding the Dakota Access Pipeline. None of us have had anything to do with that project and we're discussing it using publicly available information. As such, we're not commenting on the ethical and cultural issues, necessarily, just the legal ones. What would we do in a case where we were handed a large project like this? How would we handle it?

On today's episode we bring on two Wisconsin archaeologists to talk about the proposed AB620 bill that will basically allow land owners to test mounds for human remains and de-list them from the Wisconsin Historical Society's list if there are none found. Then, they will likely be able to destroy them. It's an important issue for Wisconsin and the entire mid-west, or, anywhere with a similar problem. Please comment below if you have some input on this issue.
