Hello everyone and welcome to talk nerdy. Today is Monday, March 12th and I'm

your host Kara Santa Maria and we've got a great episode for you today,

but before I dive in, I want to thank the sponsor

of this week's episode, The Waterline Podcast.

Guys, I've been listening, it's so fun. It's really, really informative. The most recent

episode that I listened to is I went back to the beginning and listened to the pilot.

It's called One in All. It's all about water pollution because of course as we know

there's only so much water on the planet and we are making it absolutely toxic by

all the garbage that we're dumping into it.

Here's the thing.

There are things that we can do to help and this episode really features the story of

the Rhine River and there's an interview with Dr. Stotter who's an environmental

scientist from the ICPR the International Commission for the Protection of

the Rhine. There's so much to learn I really highly recommend of the

protection of the Rhine. There's so much to learn. I really highly recommend that you listen to this initiative of Israel New Tech.

It's called Waterline.

All right guys, this week I get to sit down with Alana Mitchell.

She wrote an awesome book.

It's called The spinning magnet, the electromagnetic force that

created the modern world and could destroy it. But before we dive into the interview, I want to thank those of

you who made talk nerdy
