Dr. Kinkella’s Return

It is my pleasure to welcome back to the podcast a friend of the show and repeat guest, Dr. Andrew Kinkella (Professor at Moorpark Community College). Dr. Kinkella joins the podcast today to discuss his media empire, his summer work at El Pilar, as well as his experience writing an archaeology textbook, Archaeology is Awesome https://he.kendallhunt.com/product-listing?search_api_views_fulltext=&search_api_views_fulltext_1=Kinkella&search_api_views_fulltext_3=&field_product_format_field_isbn_number=&sort_by=title2&sort_order=ASC&items_per_page=10

He takes you behind the curtain of his publishing process and gives advice to anyone considering publishing their own book. We also discuss his podcast, The Pseudoarchaeology Podcast, and the impact of the Netflix show Ancient Apocalypse. He also provides great advice for any students planning to attend conferences. Lastly, we discuss the rise in CRM jobs and how it is now more important than ever to teach practical excavation skills to anthropology students.
