About this episode

Mosquitos cause 700,000 deaths per year. They’re also just a pain. So startups are rushing to solve the bug bite problem — Because climate change is now an industry. And it’s bigger than you think

Spotify launched a TikTok-style vertical feed to discover podcasts — Next they should expand it to music. Take back what tiktok tiktook. Music discovery.
