Podcasts
Hi there! I’m trying something new here. Below you’ll find a series of research-based, AI-generated mini-podcast episodes—each under 15 minutes—created to make peer-reviewed academic literature more accessible. The goal is twofold: to share evidence-backed insights on key issues in the aviation industry and to help counter misinformation and disinformation with credible, approachable content.
|
While this format is not a substitute for reading the original studies in full, it offers an academically grounded and accessible overview of the key insights. All sources are drawn exclusively from peer-reviewed journals to ensure the integrity and reliability of the content. I encourage you to engage with the full texts when possible, as they provide important depth and context beyond what can be covered in a 15-minute podcast. I've cited all sources below each podcast. Happy listening!
