Episode description

Dr. Andrea Dutton and Dr. Stacy Jupiter, two MacArthur "Genius" Fellows (just named last week!), join the podcast this week to talk about their research and careers, what it was like to receive this incredible honor, and how this grant will impact their careers. We also get their take on last week's IPCC report on the state of our oceans.

Plus, Dusty Baker, legendary baseball manager, player, and now, solar entrepreneur, talks to us about why he got into the renewable energy business (and also a little baseball...because, hey, it's October!).
