Welcome to Atmosphere with meteorologist Emily Gracey, a podcast where science becomes conversation. Each week, Emily sits down with leading experts in weather, climate, earth science, and beyond to…
Science can feel distant, complicated, like a world reserved for experts speaking a language the rest of us were never taught.
But after years of talking to scientists, I've learned something.
The people behind the research are some of the most passionate, curious, and compelling people you'll ever meet.
And the work they're doing, it shapes all our lives.
I'm meteorologist Emily Gracey, and this is Atmosphere.
Every week, I sit down with the scientists asking the biggest questions about our world, from hurricane experts at the National Hurricane Center to severe weather researchers in Oklahoma, geologists decoding Earth's history, and science communicators helping us make sense of it all.
We'll talk about the science, of course, but we'll also talk about the people behind it.
What drives them? What fascinates them? What scares them? What keeps them searching for answers? Because science isn't separate from our lives.
It's woven into every part of them.
This is a podcast about curiosity, about wonder, about the natural world and the human stories that help us better understand it.
