Episode 97 - Hip Neanderthals with Mayowa Adegboyega

These hips don't lie. Amber and Anna talk with paleoanthropologist Mayowa Adegboyega about her research on the evolution of the pelvis. Mayowa also gives us some insights on the experience of being Black in academia, and how she uses science communication and the occasional silliness to make anthropology more accessible.
