Ep. 1: Learn With Puzzles and Ep. 2: National Park Conservation

Kathryn interviews Author & Professor of Economics Steven Landsburg PhD, author of the book "Can You Outsmart an Economist? 100+ Puzzles to Train Your Brain." In our world of fake news and splashy soundbites, Landsburg teaches the curious how to look behind the headlines and statistics and think critically about economic problems. He's found that readers often learn better, and enjoy themselves more, when lessons in intimidating topics are packaged as puzzles. Kathryn also interviews Author & Visiting Senior Research Scholar Stephen Nash MJ, author of the book "Grand Canyon For Sale: Public Lands versus Private Interests in the Era of Climate Change". February 26, 2019 is the 100th Anniversary of the establishment of Grand Canyon National Park - this and other national parks and forests are in danger. Using on-the-ground reporting as well as scientific research, Nash shows how industrial exploitation and accelerating climate change will dislocate wildlife populations and vegetation.
