Our project was born in the bits and pieces of conversations we had together and with other students that always seemed to lead back to a common theme: there is no platform for students in our field to talk about their interests or share their research. We created the GradLings podcast for students at any stage in their career to have a space in which they can discuss their experiences about venturing into the world of linguistics and higher education. The program is intended to promote collaboration among like-minded, passionate, and enthusiastic linguists and highlight their contributions to our evolving field and raise social awareness about what linguistics is all about.
