Best Of Access Utah On Science And Folklore With Dr. Lynne McNeill

USU English Department

It’s a pledge drive special edition of Access Utah today. My special guest for the hour is Dr. Lynne McNeill, assistant professor of English at Utah State University. We’ll reach into the archives for parts of some of our favorite episodes of the program. We’ll hear a segment from our conversation on Slender Man, with Amanda Brennan, Dr. Elizabeth Tucker, and Dr. Trevor J. Blank. Then we’ll revisit a portion of our interview with Michael Poland and Jamie Farrell on the Yellowstone Supervolcano. And finally, we'll hear from commentor Gina Wickwar on dogs, Barbara Streisand, and cloning.
