Kori Czuy is the Métis host of the podcast Ancestral Science, which emphasizes the importance of Indigenous culture, spirituality and worldview in scientific inquiry.
On the show, Elders and Indigenous scientists talk about how science is defined, embraced and understood through spirit and relationality or connectedness.
Ancestral Science is just one of 12 podcasts to share $300,000 from the new Podcasting Program launched by the Indigenous Screen Office (ISO), an advocacy and funding organization serving Indigenous creators.
The ISO money will support the podcasts to grow their audiences by partnering with Acast, a Swedish podcasting platform that makes 100,000 podcasts available to 400 million monthly listeners.
The Ancestral Science podcast delves into diverse topics, including the relational nature of numbers and the interconnectedness of natural phenomena.
