Alaska

Alaska is the only state that's land is 99% federally owned, it has North America's tallest mountain (Denali) and it's illegal to whisper to someone when they are about to shoot a mouse. Alaska is a unique state, with specific and interesting challenges, especially now that Biden is rolling out aggressive climate change plans for the long term goal of keeping the planet from warming...However, the Alaskan economy and culture is tied strongly into oil production. In this episode we explore stories of Alaska's past and future and how the state is reckoning with the potential loss of its greatest industry. Also lots of dog sledding talk.

About the Podcast

Dude! Nature
The longest running (and most popular) science podcast for those of us who got kicked out of class for throwing pencils at the ceiling. Adam and Noah are skeptical twin brothers whose separate journeys through professional science and engineering led them to a ridiculous notion: that reality is strange and barely understood. Unfortunately they just didn't have the attention span to listen to any science podcasts without wanting to gouge their eyes out with a spoon.

If you've ever wanted to listen to more podcasts about cosmic quandaries, evolutionary mysteries, and giant creatures living underneath the ice of rogue planets but just can't stand academic rambling delivered with a nasally voice, then this podcast is for you.
