In this episode we pick-up where we left off on the previous episode, with Jill Fellows telling me about how she identifies the guests that are featured in her podcast and how she has approached overcoming the various challenges related to integrating public scholarship into her academic career.

Dr. Jennifer Jill Fellows teaches philosophy and is the Associate of Arts Coordinator at Douglas College. She also hosts two really terrific podcasts: “Andraste’s Gadfly” (which examines various philosophical topics as they apply to or manifest within the Dragon Age series of games) and “Gender, Sex, and Tech! Continuing the Conversation” (which is — as one might suspect from its name — about the interplay between gender, sex, and technology). And, she seems to be constantly on CBC Radio discussing super-fun topics like whether you’d make it onto Santa Claus’ nice or naughty list, our relationships with AI, and the history of feminized computers.
