This is the first ever episode of Wesearch, a podcast where I sit down with researchers to talk about their work and what gets them so excited about learning!

This week I sat down with one of my best and oldest friends, Erin Tinney, to talk about her work as a criminology doctoral student and research assistant. We talk about why crime happens, how it impacts society, the school to prison pipeline, bias, capital punishment, and even more. For notes on this episode and to see documents that I promised to link you to, go to emmeurer.com/wesearch/episodes/01.

Music for this and all episodes was written by Alex Browne. You can find more of his music by going to https://soundcloud.com/user-727938900 or following him on Twitter @alexeddybrownie.

If you’re a researcher and want to share your work or just very excited about learning and want to talk about it, please reach out to me at [email protected]. You can follow along at @wesearchpod on both Instagram and Twitter, where I share updates and more fun things about the show!
