Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bill McKibben has changed (but not that much)
Q: What changed for you?
The optimism is very tempered by the fact that we're now very late in this game, that the predictions that I made almost 40 years ago have now come true.

Q: Would your family describe you as a glass half full kind of guy or a glass half empty kind of guy?
I've been a glass half empty kind of guy because the science around what we're doing to the planet is so dark and dire. And in many ways, still am.
Time heals all wounds
Q: What is the best outdoor activity to do to heal your heart after it's been broken?
Distracting yourself with outdoor activities can help heal after a breakup, especially activities paired with reflection, according to research.

Q: Do you think we'll ever get rid of using mice in scientific research?
The use of mice for research is likely to continue as they provide indispensable insights into human biology and disease. Changes may occur in how they're used, but not their fundamental role in research.
