In this limited series, Sam Ladner and Steve Portigal talk about what a research career looks like, even when it goes "off the path."
Sam and Steve do a deep dive into interviewing. What makes a good interviewer even better? What's the difference between a journalist and a researcher? Two expert interviewers interview each other about interviewing!
In the first Episode of Off the Path, Sam and Steve talk about what makes a good enough career. How much do you really need to be satisfied? What makes something good enough? We like to call this the "wire monkey mother" episode because what makes a good enough mother is inspiration for what makes a good enough research career.
In this episode, Sam and Steve talk about how they try to grow their skills. What kinds of strategies work early in your career? What works later in your career? We call this the "get over it" episode.
