Michael Green joins me to discuss what it has been like for him living in the St. Louis area after moving here from Dublin, Ohio.

We also dive into discuss how the popular People Behind the Science podcast, which he produces and is hosted by Dr. Marie McNeely of Washington University, came to be created. Also discussed was his company Unfold Productions which produces that show and a number of others including People Behind the Innovation hosted by my guest from Episode 3, Travis Sheridan. 

Michael also shares what he thinks of the current state of podcasting and what he would like to see as podcasting continues to grow as a medium.

As always we dive into the guest faves segment and learn more about some of Michaels favorite things about St. Louis.
