- Meleagrology (TURKEYS) with Cyler Conrad
- Description
- <p>Wattles. Snoods. Struts. Vibes. It’s not November, which is exactly why we’re putting this episode out. All day every day, turkeys are out there like beanbags with stick legs. Let’s take a moment, or 90 minutes, with Archaeologist, Meleagrologist, and turkey researcher, Dr. Cyler Conrad. We’ll find out if they can fly, do they like to kiss, where did they get their audacity, turkeys versus my car door, if they can survive a rainstorm, the deep connections between Indigenous cultures and North American turkeys, creepy turkeys, alternative universes, if one can eat turkey eggs, where do they nest, what’s up with the wishbone and so many inconvenient facts that will have you questioning what you thought you knew about these so-called thunder chickens. </p> <p>Follow Dr. Conrad on <a href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=YSicePUAAAAJ&hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Google Scholar</a></p> <p>A donation went to the <a href="https://indianpueblo.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Indian Pueblo Cultural Center</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/meleagrology" rel="noopener noreferrer">More episode sources and links</a></p> <p>Other episodes you may enjoy: <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/chickenology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Chickenology (HENS & ROOSTERS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/condorology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Condorology (CONDORS & VULTURES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/2017/11/7/ornithology-with-james-maley" rel="noopener noreferrer">Ornithology (BIRDS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/food-anthropology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Food Anthropology (FEASTS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/indigenouscuisinology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Indigenous Cuisinology (NATIVE COOKING)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/plumology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Plumology (FEATHERS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/indigenouspedology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Indigenous Pedology (SOIL SCIENCE)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/oology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Oology (EGGS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/experimentalarcheology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Experimental Archeology (OLD TOOLS/ATLATLS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/araneology" rel="noopener noreferrer">Araneology (SPIDERS)</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies-by-topic" rel="noopener noreferrer">400+ Ologies episodes sorted by topic</a></p> <p><a href="https://pod.link/1746567248" rel="noopener noreferrer">Smologies (short, classroom-safe) episodes</a></p> <p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-sponsors" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sponsors of Ologies</a></p> <p><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-extras" rel="noopener noreferrer">Transcripts and bleeped episodes</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/ologies" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Become a patron of Ologies</a> for as little as a buck a month</p> <p><a href="https://www.ologiesmerch.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OlogiesMerch.com</a> has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!</p> <p>Follow Ologies on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ologies" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ologies.bsky.social" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bluesky</a></p> <p>Follow Alie Ward on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alieward" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@alie_ologies" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TikTok</a></p> <p>Editing by Mercedes Maitland of <a href="http://maitlandaudio.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Maitland Audio Productions</a> and <a href="https://www.jecmusic.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Jake Chaffee</a></p> <p>Managing Director: Susan Hale</p> <p>Scheduling Producer: Noel Dilworth</p> <p>Transcripts by Aveline Malek </p> <p>Website by <a href="https://www.kellyrdwyer.com/photo
