Description
Sharing an episode of “What It’s Like to Be...” from author Dan Heath. On the podcast, Dan explores the world of work, one profession at a time, and interviews people who love what they do. He finds out: What does a couples therapist think when a friend asks for relationship advice? How does a stand-up comedian come up with new material? What are the clues that suggest fraud to a forensic accountant? If you’ve ever met someone whose work you were curious about, and you had 100 nosy questions but were too polite to ask... this is the show for you. In this preview, Dan talks to an archaeologist about unearthing ancient wine cellars, finding the right places to dig, tracing the arc of lost civilization, and what archaeologists of the future will make of us.
