This is a special presentation of the new podcast by friend of the show Molly Wood. This week on Everybody in the Pool, we’re going big. Like, air travel big. Green hydrogen (that is, hydrogen produced using only renewable energy) is a super promising solution for powering rockets and airplanes, but one thing holding it back is a lack of infrastructure. As in, there aren’t hydrogen “gas stations” in every airport yet. This week’s guest is Paul Eremenko, the co-founder and CEO of Universal Hydrogen, a company creating a sort of “Nespresso capsule” fuel cell for plug-and-play hydrogen in regional jets. It’s a company with an ambitious vision that happens to be very doable. Let’s go. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. This is a public episode.

Despite initially high polling numbers, recent campaigns by former President Donald Trump have seen DeSantis's support decline by 10 points. Nevertheless, the end of the Florida legislative session has revealed a potential campaign in the making for DeSantis, with signs including a visit to Iowa, financial preparations, and staff reshuffling.

San Francisco has an undeniable problem with homelessness and drug use. That isn't controversial. However, a Twitter account dedicated to showing the problem in explicit fashion has found itself at the center of our national culture war. Conservatives love it because it shows a liberal city unable to run itself, liberals hate it because it gives ammo to conservatives. At the center of it all is a man who desperately wants to help his neighborhood. But should he curb his pleas for help because they excite conservatives? Are both sides missing the point entirely?Justin sits down with Adam Mesinck, otherwise known as @BetterSOMA, a man at the center of the micro and macro of American politics.

On this episode of Politics Politics Politics, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is positioning himself as a potential 2024 presidential candidate. On a recent multi-city tour, he touted his tough-on-crime stance and criticized liberal cities and prosecutors as being "woke" and out of touch. Speaking to police unions, DeSantis appealed to a constituency that strongly supported former President Trump.

Is the Biden administration so obsessed with political message discipline that it's getting in the way of doing their job?Last week, a train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio released potentially deadly chemicals into the air, resulting in a mass evacuation and a controlled burn of the toxins. The Biden administration has been sparse in their response, leading to suspicion and rumors of a media blackout.

Despite the belief that it is impossible to elect a Democrat statewide in Florida, history reveals that it can be done, as evidenced by President Barack Obama's success in the state in 2012. However, in recent years, the Republican party has made significant gains in the state, with Governor Ron DeSantis winning by a 20-point margin in the 2020 election. Despite this, Steve Schale, a Democratic strategist, believes that it is still possible to elect Democrats in Florida, as long as the Democratic party works to increase voter registration and build a presence in the state capital of Tallahassee.
