The Spillover Event

Hello, On this week's episode Ezra talks about the second impeachment of Donald J. Trump. This time, Democrats are impeaching the president because of his remarks last Wednesday to his supports that would later arrive to the US capital, breach the capital system, and put lawmakers lives at risk. They are also citing his refusal to concede in the presidential election that he lost. Republicans are countering these arguments with their own arguments. Hear this and more on News Nerds episode 32. You will also hear from David Quammen over a 40 minute interview. He is a science writer that has written numerous books including The Twisted Tree, and Spillover, abut animal infection and the next pandemic. He talks to me about Spillover and what this new animal caused pandemic means for humanity. I STRONGLY encourage you to read the book. It's a good one! Also, new countries have joined the geographical location challenge including Switzerland (many more countries were not listed in the challenge, but other countries have visited the website for their first time like South Africa). Thanks for listening to this episode, and don't forget to share it with a friend...
