Totality Talks - The Solar Eclipse Podcast (Leticia Ferrer and Chris Alexander)

The first episode of Totality Talks!  We introduce ourselves and get acquainted with the podcast concept.  We also begin to guide listeners into the path and discuss the true awe of totality. We are working on our microphone issues and ask for your understanding and patience.  

There are a few small content errors in this podcast... that's why we will be interviewing experts!  We will also be utilizing the “wrong” buzzer when warranted.  Clear skies!

This episode we have the honor of chatting with retired NASA Goddard Space Flight Center astrophysicist Fred Espenak. Known as “Mr. Eclipse”, Fred has authored over 20 books related to eclipse prediction, eclipse observation, and eclipse photography.  He has traveled to all 7 continents to observe total eclipses of the Sun and witnessed 30 total solar eclipses, 11 annular solar eclipses and 9 partial solar eclipses.  He's spent almost an hour and half inside the umbral shadow.  Today, we chat (remotely) and listen to Fred’s tales from the road en route to chasing totality. We talk about his first eclipse experience and explore his path of authoring canons, guides, and manuals for eclipse observation.

This episode we catch up with a new friend we met in Exmouth, Western Australia just after the total solar eclipse of 2023.  Allan Aldworth is a co-host of then morning radio show Hit Breakfast (WA) and observed his first TSE this last April.  He joins us remotely and shares his experiences with us today as we chat about eclipse day, Perth, and the little town of Exmouth. Our talk also covers:

- The first time experience
- Exmouth's community preparations
- Planning for the next 4 Australian Eclipses 

As mentioned in this episode the other upcoming Total Solar Eclipses in Australia are:

• July 22, 2028
• November 25, 2030
• July 13, 2037
• December 26, 2038

Once again, we kindly ask that you excuse our mess.  We had some mic issues with Leticia's rig and her audio is distorted in segment 2 between 11:00 and 24:00. We got it fixed for the last segment, so it's a victory!  This is still a first-timer podcast construction zone. Regards. Clear Skies!

In this episode, we get to chat with clinical psychologist, eclipse chaser, and community planner extraordinaire, Dr. Kate Russo. She is a native of Queensland, Australia and has authored pioneering books on the psychology of total solar eclipses including Total Addiction and Being In The Shadow.

Our conversation will be split into 2 episodes as we dive into the "ineffable" wonder of totality.  How do you describe an experience for which there are no words?  Dr. Kate shares her approach to researching this very concept.

In this episode we chat with Dr. Richard Tresch Fienberg, astronomer and science communicator. He talks about his journey from JPL, to Sky and Telescope, and on to the American Astronomical Society. Of course, we chat about the total solar eclipse of April 8, 2024.  He is now  retired and serves as the head of the American Astronomical  Society’s  Solar Eclipse Task Force. Trained as a professional astronomer,  he remains an amateur astronomer at heart. Rick joins us from his private observatory in central New Hampshire.

This episode we chat with the premier eclipse climate and weather expert, Jay Anderson.  He is the ultimate  ‘clear skies guy’ as creator of eclipseophile.com, which is THE standard for eclipse trip planning.  He has observed 34 solar eclipses including 24 total solar eclipses. Jay joins us remotely from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

At 10 days out from totality in 2024, we hear about his journey and listen to wise guidance as we transition from climate projections to weather models for the upcoming event.

YES!  So, did you see it? Sounds like lucky holes were found …almost everywhere!  Apologies for the delay.... eclipse elation and subsequent eclipse blues are real. We’ve been truckin along to April 8  and hope YOU got to see the total eclipse of the Sun! In this episode, we chat with 2 eclipse virgins no more: producers of the first total solar eclipse musical (based on David Baron’s book American Eclipse), Janet Brenner and Laura Ivey. They observed their first total solar eclipse and share their experiences with us.  Leticia and I also share a little bit about our eclipse day 2024. 

Also in this episode, we share some love from inside the shadow of the Moon.  We'll spend part of our session with veteran eclipse chaser, Letica’s husband, Daniel Brookshier.  Daniel tells us a bit about their encounter inside the umbra of the April 08, 2024 eclipse, marking HIS eighth rendezvous with totality. We nerd out about image and video capturing as we exchange notes on totality 2024.
