Coffee Chats with Ryan Ryan Billingham

My guest today is an old friend of mine I've know for more than two decades. Austin is a Senior Regulatory Affairs Officer with Health Canada, working in the Controlled Substances and Cannabis Branch in the Office of Cannabis Science and Surveillance. And in case that wasn't interesting enough, he's very well travelled and did a week-long biological research trip in the Caribbean. We get into all that and more, including why he thinks his Los Angeles Rams are going to the Superbowl this year.

Tyler Anderson, PhD candidate, joins me for a coffee and some catching up. We talk about our cooking during quarantine, his PhD journey, what exactly Feminist Science Studies are and how his field of study applies to the world, and his acting! Tyler has helped organize a lecture series called Empowering Others, and you can reserve a spot at one of the lectures at empoweringothersseris.eventbrite.com!

A conversation between you, the listener, and myself! I asked for some questions or topics you wanted to hear my take on, and you delivered! Today we've got: Bitcoin, the GameStop Saga, coffee, books I love, my travels, culinary tips, the Superbowl and predictions for the 2022 NFL Season.

Phil Brunet joins me to talk about his veterinary start-up experience and what he's up to now. We talk about books, philosophy, and how we've been dealing with the quarantines as well. I'm on Instagram @CoffeeWithRyan come check me out!
