Energy, oil spills, drones, and graffiti

 Hosted by Tom Becker, this program features segments on the politics and science of energy policies and cleaning up after oil spills.  We also learn about the blowback from drone attacks and a comic documentary about grafitti and video.

Many thanks to those of you who contributed during our recent membership drive.  If you didn't, the tip jar at the top is still open!
