Funky Music plays…

Vik: Hello, my name is Viktoria

Sloan: And I’m Sloan. We are two friends based in Edmonton, Alberta and are undergraduate students at Macewan University.

Vik: I am studying for my History major and double minoring in classics and English.

Sloan: I am double majoring in Sociology and History.

VIK: And we are also your hosts for the Interdisciplinary History Podcast. This will be a show where we examine history through its relationships with other disciplines.

Sloan: We decided to start producing this show because we believe that there is power in the way we understand the past.

Vik: and that the greater perspective  which comes from the interplay of intersectional approaches can have transformative potential

Sloan: We believe that those who study history have a lot to offer and to learn from  those who engage in other academic disciplines, and also just for humans who engage with other humans

Vik: and that the perspectives, methodologies and theories of other disciplines lead to a deep, critical, and more meaningful understanding of the past

Sloan: Through interviews, discussions, reviews, guest speakers and more, Vik and I will delve deeply into the interconnections between history and the lives we lead.

Vik: With a lot of chuckles and bad puns of course.

Sloan: And all the charming banter two socially awkward nerds can muster.

Vik: You can find our podcast on your favourite podcast directory under Interdisciplinary History Pod or keep up to date with us on our social media.

Sloan: On Facebook, you can find us by searching Interdisciplinary History Group at Macewan, or you can find us on Twitter and Instagram at the links in the description

Vik: On any of these platforms, you will find a link to our website to find citations, bonus content, blog posts, information about events and more. From there, you can subscribe to our email list so you are notified every time we share something.

Sloan: you can also get in touch with us through our website or social media if you have an idea/suggestion for a topic you’d like us to explore.

Vik: and before we sign off we would like to acknowledge that this podcast is produced in Edmonton on Treaty 6 land, the traditional gathering place for many indigenous people. We honour and respect the history, languages, ceremonies and culture of the First Nations, Métis and Inuit who call this territory home.

Sloan: Our first episode will be up sometime in the last week of October. Stay tuned and stay safe!

Vik: (whispers) Wear a mask. And not just for Halloween.

Funky music fades out.
