The US or the rest of the world? Support the showThe Nova Society Podcast In season 5, we will transition to 3 episodes per week and expand episode lengths for more in-depth conversations.Stay tuned for more information about our proposed weekly second channel, The Nova Society-Side Projects, where we have conversations with guests about topics important to them and to you, our listeners.
