    Episode 3: Jerry Kathnelson

    Born in 1939, Jerry grew up in Canada where at an early age, he began experimenting with electronics. Throughout grade school and into high school, Jerry had an engineering mind set where he would take things apart just to see how they'd work and put them back together. In the 1970's he created a device that is essentially in every household around the world, the Smart Thermostat. Listen as he talks about his life, motivations, successes including the Smart Thermostat, and his 61 year marriage. **Please note there is an audio issue with the first minute of the podcast

    Episode 2: Leonard Rivers

    Leonard Rivers comes to us from Southern California. Born in 1947 in the town of Galveston Texas, Leonard details the racism he experienced first hand from an early age, attending a segregated school, becoming a track star, and going on to attend UCLA. Leonard also tells very interesting stories on how he was nearly drafted and sent to the Vietnam War, being savant like as a Certified Public Account, and how he met the love of his life, Gloria. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I did speaking with Mr Rivers.
