Gigs & Internships
Kansas City Public Radio is looking for a Kansas Health Reporter. The team over at KCUR is so impressive, this would be an excellent next-step gig!
Current grad students: Here’s an internship focusing on ocean science communications! Apply by the 12th! (I believe it’s remote?)
The Denver Museum of Nature and Science is hiring a comms person to work on outreach. They say they want someone with experience producing podcasts, so be fully prepared to work two jobs as both the producer and the comms strategist.
If you have experience in newsletters and CMS, check out this gig in College Park, MD.
And, possibly the most exciting gig this week: NASA is looking for a Heliophysics Producer. 🌞

💌 Newsletters I just really like Edition
I unapologetically love the HBR Management Tip of the Day newsletter. It focuses a lot on things you can control.
The Cohort. Alex just… speaks the words I didn’t know I was carrying.
The IndieGraf newsletter is useful for anyone in communications - I think their case studies are the least-boring and often provide good ideas for communicators thinking critically about their audience.
And, weirdly, the Premium Beat blog newsletter. Once or twice a month they’ll have free shit to give out, and being the asset-kleptomaniac I am I always save it for later.
What got Me Through Last Week
I finally watched The Bear on Hulu. Aside from the technical excellence (if it doesn’t get an Emmy for sound-mixing and editing I will fight someone) I just felt like I personally knew multiple people in this show.
