If you listened to Rhode Island Public Radio on Sunday at 2 pm, you might have heard the pilot for our new show: Possibly.

More than a year ago, Brown professor Stephen Porder approached Torey Malatia from Rhode Island Public Radio with an idea:  we all know that humans are destroying the planet, but how many of us know what to do about it? What if a radio show could use science to break down the difference between nice ideas and real solutions?  Torey was intrigued and asked Stephen to make a few episodes.

The MHC Group worked with Stephen to take that initial idea and turn it into a 20-minute episode on the future of food. We worked hand in hand with journalist Nancy Pick to develop the script and enlisted musician Tom Van Buskirk to create theme music and sound design.

We’re now hard at work on episode 2. Stay tuned!
