This episode in particular is a favorite. I enjoy hearing from scientists who are local to the Logan, Utah area and I hope to join them some day soon. Also, if I'm not mistaken, it's the first, Dr Ryan Jackson, who got into his field by asking questions and wanting to find answers. That's the kind of boss I'd like to have some day.

This podcast is an excellent reminder of why scientists start down their career paths. We feel a desire to know something, to solve some problem, to make life better for some individual.
