We sat down with John German, the Lab’s Chief Communications Officer, to learn about the inspiration behind the Lab’s new podcast series, It’s Elemental, and the vision for its future. The series currently includes more than three dozen interviews with Lab experts on a variety of topics.
Podcasts offer a uniquely human and accessible way to share information. As John notes, “Audio interviews help build human connection. You can hear people in their own words, you can hear them react to questions in real time.” This personal element, the ability to hear genuine reactions and individual voices, may be exactly what’s needed in an information-rich world.
Tune in to learn more about the inspiration behind our new podcast series.
