Show Notes

It's the one-year anniversary of the Blue Origin flight into space, and with the release of William Shatner's book commemorating his space flight, Andrew and Jerry offer Andrew's conversation last year with Glen de Vries, one of Shatner's fellow passengers (and a friend of Andrew's from high school).  Glen was a scientist, a tech entrepreneur, and a problem-solving philanthropist--and they talk about these endeavors.  Glen's scientific research and pivoting towards entrepreneurship, his work solving problems like the global access to clean water, his long-time fascination with space (something Andrew and Glen share).

It's a wide-ranging conversation, and it took place just weeks after Glen's flight into space, but just before the untimely plane crash that took Glen's life.

Glen's passion for his work is inspiring, and you're going to love this wide-ranging conversation.
