In the first episode of South Pole, Antarctic social scientist and expedition guide Dr. Katie Marx explores how people build relationships with a continent most will never visit. From Hobart and other Antarctic gateway cities to tourism, research, and public engagement, she explains how proximity, community, and storytelling shape what Antarctica means to people. Host Clark Marchese also asks who gets to participate in Antarctic conversations and why caring for the continent is not limited to scientists or explorers.
