    Episode 1: The Good Enough Career

    In the first Episode of Off the Path, Sam and Steve talk about what makes a good enough career. How much do you really need to be satisfied? What makes something good enough? We like to call this the "wire monkey mother" episode because what makes a good enough mother is inspiration for what makes a good enough research career.
