AcaDames

Sarah Birken and Whitney Robinson

Is being a woman in academia a dream, game, or scam? AcaDames is a biweekly podcast that explores this question through interviews with a diverse range of women. Discussions cover career trajectories, finances, childbearing decisions, spirituality, the ever-present patriarchy and everything in between. Co-hosts Whitney Robinson and Sarah Birken open up to each other and their guests in intimate, frank, and often funny conversations. Along the way, they share insider knowledge about the “hidden curriculum” for professional advancement (and potential world domination). Episodes released every other Thursday during the semester.
