https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/one-guy-too-many-papers--6395948One Guy Too Many Papers is a follow-up to the Two Guys One Paper podcast. In this series Tom Elliot talks with editors of scientific journals about the current challenges facing scholarly publishing, including open science, rising submission rates, reviewer fatigue, and the growing influence of artificial intelligence.

Seaons 1: Two Guys One Paper is about promoting the work of early career researchers in sustainability-related fields while helping to demystify the publication process and science dissemination. In each episode researchers Tom Elliot and Furqan Asif chat with someone who has recently published one of their first academic peer-reviewed papers and we focus on discussing three questions with them:

• What’s their paper about?
• Were there any weird mishaps during the process?
• And what tips they offer to other rookies looking to publish their work?
