In this inaugural episode of the Forensic Anthropology Companion Podcast,  I  first have a chat with two of the editor's of Forensic Anthropology, Drs. Joseph Hefner and Nicholas Passalacqua, about the history of the journal and its future directions.  Next, I interviewed Autumn Lennartz to discuss her paper "Moisture Content in Decomposing, Desiccated, and Mummified Human Tissue", followed by Dr. Chris Maier and Rebecca George to talk about their paper "Examining Differences in Presumed Migrants from Texas and Arizona Using Cranial and Dental Data", and lastly, I was able to chat with Ariane Maggio about her paper "A Simplified Protocol for the Histological Preparation of Cortical Bone Samples for Light Microscopy: A Revision of Garcia-Donas et al. (2017)".
