“I have been devouring these podcasts since I learned of them about a month ago. I’ve been going through the archives, starting with some of the older scientists, particularly those that have worked in oceanography, which is my own field. It’s fascinating to hear about what the key questions were in oceanography and climate science decades ago. It’s also fascinating to hear about the trajectories of individual scientists, many of them stumbling into climate science accidentally. The conversations can get kind of technical from time to time but there is always plenty of conversation that is non-technical and often about the social responsibility of climate scientists, which is something that Adam Sobel himself struggles with, as do I. In a nutshell, the podcast is a must for climate scientists and those in related fields, but will also be of interest to a more general audience. One episode in particular that will be of general interest will be the one with Naomi Oreskes, the great historian of science. She is brilliant and absolutely shines in this interview and dispatches a lot of wisdom in a short amount of time.”
