Did This Guy Invent Geophysics? | Ep 23

August 20, 2025

In this episode of Sparking Interest, Kaden Eades sits down with Dr. Peter Duncan—a geophysicist, entrepreneur, and quite possibly the inventor of geophysics (or at least that’s what Kaden suspected at first). Having never heard of geophysics before this interview, Kaden dives headfirst into a world of tiny earthquakes, flying blimps, and Earth-listening gadgets. Dr. Duncan shares how his love of science, outdoor adventures, and really good geology department parties led him to a career mapping the underground—sometimes with tech so cool it sounds like sci-fi. Along the way, he offers advice for curious minds and proves that physics, music, and storytelling make one surprisingly awesome combo.

A quick apology to Dr. Peter Duncan—this episode took a little longer to release than planned, but I promise it was worth the wait! Also, when I joked that he might’ve invented geophysics, I didn’t mean to age you or anything—I just hadn’t heard of it before and you sounded like you invented it. Thanks again for being such an awesome guest!
