… about african drums and the Loch Ness Monster (How we Talk, part 1)

What if everybody knew… why a West African drummer was so serious about his European students understanding why he played? Or, why creatures like the Loch Ness Monster or Bigfoot are so important to people… who don’t even believe they exist? 

These might seem like unrelated topics, but as our guests Allie Mangel ’22 and Lucy Ellen Dever ’22 walk us through their research, we'll hear about two different that we (try to) connect with one another, how that can go wrong, and what that means for future generations.

This is the first of a two-part series.
