New podcast up this week about the Science and Stats behind podcasts! I got to speak with a PhD candidate at the University of Washington who collects and analyzes data behind how guests & ideas spread across different channels. Different from what I normally do, but still very cool stuff!

I posted some great videos recently about work being done by a Harvard professor and his research group! They use samples from an asteroid which NASA recently visited to learn more about our universe. A very important use of government funding!

This video is for anyone wondering what government agencies like NOAA produce! I go through why so many agencies care about sea level rise, how it impacts typical Americans, and 4 major takeaways from this report:
(1) the projected average sea level rise of one foot by 2050
(2) increased frequency of coastal flooding
(3) Emissions impact on long-term sea level rise
(4) Planning ahead, including for different risk tolerances
