We've gained some new subscribers recently, and over the next few Sundays we want to help welcome them to the show by re-releasing some of our favourite episodes from the last few years. If you're new here, welcome! And if you've been with us for a while, we hope you enjoy this trip down memory lane.

GUEST: Dr. Courtney Howard, emergency physician; Vice-Chair of the Global Climate and Health Alliance
