Listen "Archaeology, Genetics, and YouTube with Stefan Milo | DIH # 6"
Episode Synopsis
STEFAN MILO RETURNS Just kidding. This is his first appearance on my solo show, but Stefan has been on A Life in Ruins over 5 times. If you don’t already know, Stefan is a YouTuber, author, and overall awesome bloke. He has a YouTube page dedicated to making well-researched and really well-produced archaeology and anthropology videos. I met Stefan almost 5 years ago now through our artist, Ettore Mazza, and we’ve been friends ever since. We eventually shoot the breeze about the Bronze Age, Homo erectus, and get into modern genetic science. But mainly, I ask Stefan about his current success where he started. We talk about his childhood in the UK, his undergrad at Sheffield, and then his time abroad in Europe. We then discuss how he came to the US, Portland, and his time working IT at a credit union and how that led to YouTube. We talk about a lot more, but if you’re a fan of Stefan, I recommend listening to the whole episode because we cover a lot!
