  • Good content

    I appreciate the depth of information coverage. My only criticism is audio quality. I listen to a lot of podcasts, and Currents has noticeably worse audio quality.

  • Straight from the horses mouth

    One of my favorite things about the energy transition is the direct access to people who are in business and their willingness to share their thoughts. This podcast is a great example - nothing but profiles of important players in the business side of the wider effort to save life on earth. I’m not a capitalist but understanding the business environment is critical to my work - thank you for what you all do to bring this info to the public.
