概要

Ever wondered what kind of people dedicate their lives to rocks? ‘Geologists from Planet Earth’ might challenge your ideas. In this podcast, geologists tell their stories, a geologist who dodged lions during fieldwork, another who turned ancient rock data into music, and one who found love (and radioactive rocks) working for the Pentagon in Afghanistan. There's a geologist who found working on Greenlandic cliffs more terrifying than the north face of the Eiger and another who navigated a career through mining and motherhood, while proving her father gloriously wrong. ‘Geologists from Planet Earth’ reveals the surprising and inspiring journeys of geologists who - every one of them - are passionate about the planet that we live on.

    A California kid who just wanted to go climbing and dodge the draft ends up in a life spent between the lecture hall and the high Arctic. From Yosemite’s granite walls to magma chambers under the ice, Dennis's story is one of chance and curiosity — one in which a teacher, a mountain lion, and a storm helped forge a lifetime of discovery and humility.

  • Geology as a journey through generations - Adrian Finch
    2025/10/22

    Send us a text

    Adrian Finch hailed from South London and - in his own words - started out utterly hopeless at fieldwork. His lifelong love of crystal structures led him to research into car catalysts and superconductors, before settling on the Arctic for a love affair with geology that, despite hurricane-force winds on a remote Greenlandic nunatak, proved irresistible. It's a testament to stubbornness, mentorship, and an unyielding passion for understanding the Earth.
