    A podcast for everyone
    Some of the episodes on this podcast are some of my favorite things I’ve listened to. Interesting interviews, fact-driven, nonpartisan. Professional host. Although the episodes begin with a data point, the narrative style showcases some of the most poignant journalism in the business.

    I love this podcast for all the interesting, informative data it provides. I also like that the eps aren't too long. I don't have a ton of extra time so I appreciate the shorter podcasts. Thanks for creating this and putting it out there for data nerds like me!

    National Parks need our help
    Thank you for this important and timely reminder that "we the people" can help fix our parks. I'm calling my US Senators to support Senate Bill 751 to create a permanent funding source to maintain these 400+ national parks and cultural resources.
