My goal is to deliver industry news, interesting interviews, and closing commentary with every episode. This first week I spoke about the events involving SCANA, the John Oliver Show bit, and interviewed the author of Campaigning For Clean Air, Meredith Angwin. In weeks to come, I have a lot of other big names lined up for interviews, which I'm sure won't disappoint.
The first episode is currently up. Please note that the website is still a work in progress, but will be continuously updated. And as I get more comfortable with the production of the episodes, expect the quality to improve as well.
Keep in mind, I may state things that you disagree with and that is okay. This show will contain commentary. I encourage everyone to consider the news pieces I am talking about and to draw their own conclusions. My goal is simply to provide context and opinions on a very nuanced issue in a way that is palatable for all audiences in an entertaining manner. I am also always looking for people to interview or debate with, so if there is anyone you think would be a good fit, yourself included, please contact me.
