Probability Matters was created by Mwangi Ndonga who holds CIH, CSP, and CHMM certifications and Kyle Krueger who is a published author and speaker in the health and safety industry. Both individuals are extremely passionate about the topics of worker health and safety and industrial hygiene. The idea for the Podcast came out of numerous lunch conversations over the years. These conversations discussed the potential, philosophy, impact, and the role that technology can play in the future of health and safety. We intend to invite listeners to our "lunch table" to elaborate on these discussions with a few special guests along the way.
This podcast was founded to create a platform for thought leadership. We will introduce, discuss, and argue for the use of technology to improve health and safety. The stage is intentionally genuine. We do not promote specific products or companies. We do, however, promote positive ideas and philosophies that will make an impact on the overall health and safety of workers.
Probability Matters is brought to you by the Rocky Mountain Chapter of the AIHA.

Much Love,

Customer Reviews
Informative and fun!
This podcast is a perfect intersection of interesting and informative topics and fun and free flowing discussions. They have already touched on some very important health and safety topics and they’re just getting going. Can’t wait for more!
Science of data
Great episodes here. Kyle and Mwangi do things in this episode (and others) that most don’t. They go outside their expertise to see how they effect and can benefit from each other.
Great podcast for OSH pros!
I’ve listened to 3 of these podcasts and they are now on my go-to list. Kyle and Mwangi are articulate and passionate. They also explain IH concepts very well to this non-CIH.
