In the tradition of coffee houses in England in the 17th century, the Coffee Jam podcast is a meeting place to discuss news and ideas. We aim to create a community based around chatting over a nice cup of coffee.

We’ll be talking about third-wave coffee and coffee culture, careers and job searching, creativity, diversity and inclusion, and more. We'll have guests join us to chat about our topics and interview interesting people about "how they found their jam.”

Episode 1: The Intersection of Dolphin Dissections, Duels, and Coffee Culture

We’ll be chatting about the history of coffee houses in England, third-wave coffee, goats high on caffeine, the persistence of gender bias in coffee culture, and more.
