With the first launch of the SpaceX Starship just days away, I thought it would be good to catch up with my old friend Tim Dodd, The Everyday Astronaut to catch up on what he's been doing, his plans for the first launch of Starship, and of course we talk about the upcoming Dear Moon mission he's been selected for.Check out Tim's channel at https://www.youtube.com/@EverydayAstronautVisit his website at https://everydayastronaut.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
If you're familiar with the YouTube channel Not Just Bikes, there's a chance you've been "orangepilled." This is what fans of the channel have called the radical shift in worldview that they experienced once they found the channel. The host, Jason Slaughter, is on a mission to educate the world not just about the benefits of walkable cities, but about the absurdities that come along with the western suburban sprawl that millions of people have accepted as normal. He does a fantastic job of pointing out how completely abnormal and backwards it all is.Today we talk about his experience of moving to Amsterdam and discovering the joy of living in cities that prioritize people over cars, and discuss ways that we can transform our current cities into something more healthy and sustainable.You can find Jason over at his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@NotJustBikesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Scott Carney is an investigative journalist whose recent book, The Vortex, tells the almost unbelievable story of the deadliest storm in human history, which was followed by an even deadlier genocide and war that almost led to nuclear annihilation.
