In this episode of A Life In Ruins podcast, Connor and Davíd interview Joshua Herrin; archaeologist and artifacts laboratory manager of the Augusta Veteran’s Curation Program. Josh originally started his career at Georgia, Southern University, but then found himself in the United States Army.
After finishing his tenure with the National Guard, Josh re-enrolled in his undergraduate studies and later, earned his masters degree from Georgia Southern as well.
Connor and David interviewed Josh about his nontraditional career path in archaeology and especially his focus on historic archaeology in the south. Josh is very knowledgeable about Georgia History, and the three have a fascinating conversation about the history of the colony and then later the state of Georgia.
They end the show talking about Josh and Davíd’s job at the veterans Curation program, and how it’s such a unique job, as it is the definition of applied anthropology.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
