    Banking on the Water Table: America’s Hidden Groundwater

    Groundwater is our hidden savings account. Learn how scientists map water-table depth using wells, satellites, and machine learning - and why shallow groundwater across large areas matters for ecosystems, contamination risk, and drought resilience.

    Constructive Destruction Meets a Finite Planet

    Innovation drives economic growth - but the planet has limits. We translate “creative destruction” into Earth terms: resource booms, energy transitions, and why sustained growth only works long-term if it respects geologic and climate boundaries.

    Hydrogen beneath our feet

    A clean energy source may be naturally generated underground. We follow the petroleum-style playbook - generation, migration, trapping, drilling - and ask where geologic hydrogen could fit into global and U.S. energy futures.

    ٠٩‏/١٠‏/٢٠٢٥

    New Rooms for Chemistry: MOFs, Geology & the Nobel

    Why did porous crystal “architectures” win big attention? Meet metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), the mineral connections that inspired them, and how their tiny pores could help with carbon capture, water harvesting, and pollution cleanup.

  5. De-Extinction’s Wild New Chapter

    ٠٧‏/٠٩‏/٢٠٢٥

    De-Extinction’s Wild New Chapter

    Science fiction is turning into science fact. We explore “de-extinction” efforts like woolly-mammoth traits and dire-wolf headlines - plus the ethics of altering nature, ecosystems, and what we owe to living species today.

    Terrain Under Turbulence in a Changing Climate

    Is Tornado Alley moving? In this episode, we analyze the geological and meteorological forces shifting the center of tornado activity from the Great Plains to the Southeast. We explore how flat sedimentary basins fuel supercells, the role of climate change in this migration, and what the rising threat means for preparedness in Kentucky and Tennessee.

    Into the Abyss: The Race for Deep-Sea Metals

    From polymetallic nodules to battery supply chains, we dive into deep-sea mining: how it works, what it could provide, and the environmental and governance questions swirling in the darkest parts of the ocean.

    Bourbon and Bedrock: How Kentucky’s Limestone Shapes the Spirit

    Kentucky bourbon has a geologic signature. Discover how limestone-filtered water removes iron, adds key minerals for fermentation, and helps set the stage for bourbon’s smooth character.

  9. The Secret Behind Baseball’s Magic Mud

    ٠٥‏/٠٢‏/٢٠٢٥

    The Secret Behind Baseball’s Magic Mud

    That perfectly “broken-in” baseball feel starts with geology. We unpack what makes baseball mud special - its grain size, clay minerals, and just-right stickiness - and why a specific mud source became a big-league secret.

  10. Lithium: The Fuel of the Future

    ١١‏/١١‏/٢٠٢٤

    Lithium: The Fuel of the Future

    Lithium powers the clean-energy revolution - but where does it come from, and what are the tradeoffs? We trace lithium from brines and hard-rock mines to batteries, geopolitics, recycling, and the environmental footprint of “green” tech.
