Smithsonian Institution: Sidedoor

In October 2016, the Smithsonian Institution launched Sidedoor, a podcast dedicated to "science, art, history, humanity and where they unexpectedly overlap." Hosted and produced by Smithsonian staff members Tony Cohn and Megan Detrie, this podcast explores a wide range of issues in the form of twenty-minute episodes. In the inaugural episode, Cohn and Detrie examine how technology is shaping human interactions and identity via interviews with both researchers and contemporary teenagers. In another episode, dedicated to squabbles throughout history, Cohn and Detrie interview Smithsonian paleontologist Hans Sues on what dinosaur skulls can tell us about physical confrontations between these early creatures. On this website, visitors can listen to podcasts in full and check out related resources from the Smithsonian's collections and other sources. Interested listeners can also subscribe on iTunes.
