In this episode, Janine and I banter about volcanoes not on this planet. We talk to Dr. Jacob Richardson (NASA Goddard) about all things extraterrestrial when it comes to volcanoes, including Martian volcanism, just how big eruptions can get on other planets and moons, volcanoes of ice and the future for exploration of volcanics not on Earth.

Episode #11: Space is the Place

In this episode, Janine and I banter about how volcanoes can impact climate. We'll talk about what comes out of volcanoes during big volcanic eruption, the role of aerosols like sulfur dioxide have on the atmosphere. Then we tackle the impact of some large volcanic eruptions on global temperatures. We wrap up with why volcanoes are not the cause of current climate change.

Episode #10: Heavy Weather (and Climate)

In this episode, Janine and I don't do much bantering. Instead, we interview Dr. Seth Moran, the Scientist in Charge of the USGS Cascades Volcano Observatory in Vancouver, WA. Hear about the hazards in the Cascades, how the USGS watches the volcano and how Dr. Moran ended up as the leader of CVO.

Episode #6: Back to Basics (A PV Mini-Series)

Your hosts: Erik Klemetti and Janine KrippnerIn this episode, we banter about earthquakes along the Adriatic Sea, the potentially-rising unrest at New Zealand's White Island, and the 2nd anniversary of the Agung eruption. Then we talk pyroclastic flows and lava domes with Dr. Paul Ashwell. We discuss his research in New Zealand, Chile and beyond. We speculate about how nasty and deadly pyroclastic flows can be, how to avoid being killed by one and how to deal with long-term volcanic threats.Support the show

Episode #4: Very Emergency

Your hosts: Erik Klemetti and Janine KrippnerWe banter about pumice rafts and why they're so cool, why bad Op-Eds in newspapers about volcanoes are not cool, the dangers of pyroclastic flows moving over water and the recent global eruption activity. We then dive into answering listener questions, including how volcanoes get names, whether there is a set pattern to volcanic activity over a volcano's life, what is the most hazardous volcano in the U.S., why anorthosite are weird and why never nuke a volcano (or hurricane).Support the show

Episode #1: Of Course, it's Yellowstone

I’m currently an undergraduate geology student and was introduced to the show by my professor for an assignment, but I liked it so much I kept listening! Super interesting look into not only the science of volcanos themselves but also the community that studies them.

Great listen!

The Drs K deliver a wealth of science knowledge about volcanoes, how they affect other scientific disciplines, how they interact with the world around us, the danger we face and how to stay safe in their presence.  They separate the wheat from the chaff in a way the layman can understand

Smiting the ludicrous, debunking the film flam, busting the myths
