Remember last episode when we got super political? Well, get ready for some more politics. And this time, we’re diving into President Trump’s nomination of Barry Lee Myers for the new administrator of NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. What is NOAA? Who is Barry Myers? Why should you care? We’ll have a compilation of press reports, opinions from various sides, and our own insights on the nomination and what it could mean for NOAA and the National Weather Service. Join us for this and as always, a fun look into our lives and songs of the week!
