Every few months, I rediscover hummus and how amazing it is. Now is one of those times, and I’m eating it for every meal.

Listening to podcasts on vacation, I like being that “oh hey, someone’s listening to our show in France!” datapoint
Who can we trust to lead the largest school system in the state? I produced a podcast looking at just that. 14 community voices speak up in this audio collage, delving into what kind of leader today's students need
First episode in our special series on the search for a new Superintendent of Boston is LIVE! Hear from a diverse group of community leaders offering their thoughts on the role, priorities, and how the community can support our district and its new leader: pod.link/LNASC

One of my favorite pieces I produced last year. Happy Pride!
“I think it's important to see queer people in the outdoors because nature is so queer itself.” For #pridemonth, we feature @pattiegonia, a drag queen who loves hiking in six-inch heels, over-the-top outfits, and makeup: loe.org/shows/segments.html?…

Maybe I’m late to the game here, but I just learned that there are animals that evolved into crabs at least 5 separate times, and carcinization is now my favorite word

It’s @livingonearth’s 30th anniversary! Felt great to help put together this special episode with visionaries like @DrKWilkinson
A green economy is about more than installing wind and solar, says @allwecansave's @DrKWilkinson. The care economy is also low carbon set of industries, predominantly held by women and women of color. She explains in our 30th anniversary #EarthDaySpecial: pod.fo/e/c7f93
One of my favorite books I’ve read all year. And @CharMcConaghy was such a delight
