In this episode of Career in Ruins, Derek and Lawrence finally catch up after a busy few months. Derek joins us from sunny Greece while Lawrence checks in from a much rainier Britain. We chat about the latest Time Team episodes, Derek’s ongoing work in Greece, and some of the adventures we’ve shared recently on Career in Ruins—including our visit to the Crannog Centre and a trip to Belfast.
We also give a sneak peek at a forthcoming Career in Ruins in the Field special, recorded during a dig on Derek’s very own farm. Along the way, we muse on prehistoric parenting, reflect on the highs and lows of bid and funding writing, and—as always—wander down a few unexpected archaeological rabbit holes.
