Episode description

Our guest is Scott Brusaw, owner of Solar Roadways, a company that proposes to turn highways and parking lots into giant solar-energy arrays. The company got a huge boost when George Takei, who played Star Trek's Sulu posted about the company to his 8 million plus social media followers. Solar Roadways, which is being crowdfunded on Indiegogo, saw their campaign pass the $2 million mark as the post went viral, making it the most successful project in Indiegogo’s history.
