Podcast appearances and mentions of David Roberts

Full show notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/marapodcast In this episode, you will hear the origin story of Mara Labs, a company built around sulforaphane, the active compound found in broccoli that has been studied across thousands of papers covering almost every major chronic disease, and why most people are not actually getting it from their broccoli supplements. You will discover why the way your broccoli supplement is made determines whether any of it reaches your cells at all, what dose of the active compound moves the needle on inflammation, detox, and cellular defense, and how a single capsule compares to eating five pounds of adult broccoli a day. You will also hear something that has not been discussed publicly before: a pilot study showing that this same compound can trigger your cells to release microplastics, those synthetic particles now found in human blood, lungs, and breast tissue, and push them out through your digestive system. David Roberts is the co-founder and managing partner of Mara Labs. After his wife Mara was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012 and passed away in 2017, David channeled his experience into building a supplement company grounded in clinical science rather than ingredient trends. Dr. John Gildea is Chief Science Officer and co-founder, with a PhD in molecular biology and over 20 years studying the Nrf2 pathway at the University of Virginia. Author of more than 60 peer-reviewed publications, he developed the stabilization method that made shelf-stable sulforaphane possible and has since led research on sulforaphane's effects on microplastics and cancer stem cells.

Sulforaphane, Detox Pathways, and the Science of Microplastic Removal Microplastics are building up inside your brain, blood, and reproductive tissue, and most detox protocols do nothing to remove them. This episode gives you the cellular science behind why toxins accumulate, which three detox pathways control your ability to excrete them, and what the latest research shows actually moves microplastics, heavy metals, BPA, and benzene out of your body.. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -For next week, 25% off all Mara Labs products when you go to www.mara-labs.com/DAVE and use code DAVE at checkout.

Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. John Gildea, a Johns Hopkins-trained PhD with 60 scientific publications and over 20 NIH-funded studies, and David Roberts, co-founder of Mara Labs and co-creator of BrocElite, the only naturally derived stable form of sulforaphane available in a capsule. Together they bring decades of research-backed biohacking and functional medicine insight into one of the most pressing longevity conversations of our time. They break down the lysosome, your cell's built-in incinerator, and explain exactly why it gets clogged with microplastics, advanced glycation end products, and other toxins that won't break down. New research shows that sulforaphane triggers a process called lysosomal surface translocation, which releases those trapped particles so your body can finally excrete them. An in-house Mara Labs study confirmed the excretion pathway: microplastics come out in feces. In the original study, the individual measured the highest microplastic levels ever recorded, and a repeat study a year later showed dramatically lower baseline microplastic levels, suggesting consistent use compounds the benefit over time. You'll Learn: Why microplastics accumulate inside lysosomes and what sulforaphane does to release them How the three detox pathways, glutathione, glucuronidation, and sulfation, work together to remove every major class of toxin What an in-house study revealed about how and where microplastics actually leave the body How toxic estrogen metabolites form and why sulforaphane is the most effective natural tool to reroute them Why berberine supports sleep optimization, ketosis, and blocks a cancer growth pathway most drugs cannot touch How sulforaphane boosts BDNF and neuroplasticity at the cellular level What microplastic sources in your home, including your dryer, rugs, and receipts, are doing to your toxin load daily Why losing weight releases stored toxins and what to take to protect your brain and metabolism during fat loss How sulforaphane activates the same AMPK longevity pathways triggered by fasting without restricting food Thank you to our sponsors! - iRestore | Reverse hair loss at www.irestore.com/DAVE and get exclusive savings on the iRestore Elite, use code DAVE - HeartMath | Go to https://www.heartmath.com/dave to save 15% off. - Timeline | Go to timeline.com/dave and you'll get an additional 20% off your first month - Our Place | Stop cooking with toxic cookware and upgrade to Our Place today.

Most people think feeling tired, foggy, inflamed, and “off” is just part of modern life.But what if your body is working overtime behind the scenes trying to protect you from a toxic load your grandparents never had to deal with?In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, I sit down with David Roberts and Dr. John Gildea, founders of Mara Labs, to unpack what modern toxins, chronic inflammation, and microplastics may be doing to your brain, gut, energy, and recovery.David Roberts' interest in this work began after his late wife, Mara, was diagnosed with breast cancer, a deeply personal experience that pushed him to look more closely at the science of cellular protection and detoxification. Dr. John Gildea is a Johns Hopkins-trained PhD and molecular biologist with decades of research experience in oxidative stress, gene expression, and the body's natural defense systems.We talk about what is really happening when your body feels slower to recover, why brain fog may be one of the earliest warning signs that your system is under stress, and how your detox pathways, inflammation levels, and gut barrier all play a role in how sharp or sluggish you feel.In this episode, you'll learn: ☑️ What sulforaphane is and why it matters for brain health, detoxification, and inflammation ☑️ How chronic inflammation differs from the kind your body uses for healing ☑️ Why brain fog may be linked to toxins, mitochondrial strain, and poor cellular cleanup ☑️ What microplastics are, where most exposure comes from, and why they are such a concern ☑️ How modern life may be overwhelming the body's built-in defense systems ☑️ Why detox is not about extreme cleanses but about supporting the pathways your body already uses ☑️ How gut integrity and tight junctions relate to toxic burden ☑️ Simple ways to reduce toxic exposure and support your body more effectivelyIf you've been feeling like your energy is lower, your thinking is less clear, or your body is not recovering the way it used to, this episode will help you understand what may be happening underneath the surface and what you can do to better support your brain and body in a high-stress, high-toxin world.

Today, we welcome back David Roberts, founder of Mara Labs and the passionate mind behind their groundbreaking sulforaphane supplements. After losing his wife, Mara, to breast cancer, David turned personal tragedy into purpose — creating a science-backed supplement company focused on real, stable sulforaphane from broccoli that actually works. In this powerful conversation, David shares how his BrocElite Plus formula helps firefighters and first responders detox from smoke and toxins, speed up workout recovery, reduce inflammation, and even improve sleep. We also dive into their SleepElite formula, kids and pet versions, and their new GL Perfect weight-loss support. If you or someone you love faces high stress, toxin exposure, or simply wants better health and longevity, you don't want to miss this episode.

David approaches microplastic exposure not from a place of fear—but from informed, practical wellness. With a background in public health and a deeply personal journey into cellular health after his late wife's cancer diagnosis, he brings both science and lived experience to the conversation.David holds a MPH from Johns Hopkins, a Masters in BME from the UVA, and a Bachelors in EE and BME from Duke. He founded Mara Labs after his late wife's cancer diagnosis sparked a deep dive into plant-based compounds and cellular protection. His personal health journey led directly to the development of BrocElite®— a stabilized sulforaphane supplement designed to support detoxification, mitochondrial health, and cellular resilience. David has more than 20 years of public health experience on three continents.

As awareness grows around the hidden toxins we encounter daily, one issue is quietly gaining urgency: microplastics in our bodies, homes, and food systems. While headlines are beginning to catch up, many people in the wellness space are asking a more immediate question—what can I actually do about it right now?That's where David Roberts, founder of Mara Labs, offers a grounded and empowering perspective.David approaches microplastic exposure not from a place of fear—but from informed, practical wellness.

Ed Viesturs was a childhood hero of mine. When I was younger—dreaming about mountains—his story helped shape what I thought “greatness” actually was: more than bravado, but also patience, judgment, and the discipline to come home.In this episode, Ed takes us inside an 18-year mission: climbing all 14 of the world's 8,000-meter peaks without supplemental oxygen—with Annapurna as the final, most dangerous obstacle. We talk about the real risk near the end of any long goal: when attention, pressure, and expectations tempt you to break the rules that kept you safe in the first place—and the one rule Ed used to survive. What we cover The “long game” mindset that lasts decades  Why Annapurna was “off the charts” dangerous  How pressure (fame/sponsors/ego) makes people “step over the edge”  Why the summit isn't the finish—getting down is ReferencesNo Shortcuts to the Top: Climbing the World's 14 Highest Peaks — Ed Viesturs (with David Roberts)

Guest David Roberts, Mara Labs, joins to discuss latest research into the consumption of micro plastics. Discussion of the micro plastics in the air, food, and drinks we consume. What is it doing to our bodies, how do we detox them out of our body, and how can we prevent the consumption of more? Democrats "purge" themselves of corrupt elected officials with the latest announcement of resignations. Are they trying to rebrand themselves for midterm elections? Discussion of the party making an example out of Eric Swalwell, and looking at the 25th Amendment against President Trump. 

Today's episode of the Punk CX podcast features a recent chat I had with Jeannie Walters, who is the Founder and CEO of Experience Investigators, an international keynote speaker, and an author. Jeannie and I caught up at a recent event we were both at, and I took the opportunity to have a chat with her about her new book: Experience is Everything: Making Every Moment Count in the Age of Customer Expectations. We chat about the origin of the book, CX Foundations, the importance of mindset, four key questions that every CX leader should be asking, why they should also be thinking about what their organization and leaders need, and why it's nearly impossible to deliver a great customer experience without creating a customer-first culture. This interview follows on from my recent interview – The unstructured data revolution in CRM – Interview with David Roberts of SugarCRM – and is number 581 in the series of interviews with authors and business leaders who are doing great things, providing valuable insights, helping businesses innovate and delivering great service and experience to both their customers and their employees.

Today's episode of the Punk CX podcast features a recent chat I had with David Roberts, President and CEO of SugarCRM, the sales CRM platform focused on B2B growth. We talk about why sellers/salespeople don't get any value from CRM systems, whether the advent of AI makes things better, whether organisations are taking a tool-first, problem-second approach, what they should be doing instead, and the role of contextual intelligence, amongst other things. This interview follows on from my recent interview – Closing the experience gap – Interview with Qualtrics executives from X4 – and is number 580 in the series of interviews with authors and business leaders who are doing great things, providing valuable insights, helping businesses innovate and delivering great service and experience to both their customers and their employees.

Today, I'm joined by David Roberts and Dr. John Gildea, two passionate researchers whose work sits at the cutting edge of environmental health and longevity science. In this episode, we dive deep into the catalyst for developing a stabilized sulforaphane supplement—something born out of both necessity and relentless curiosity. David opens up about how environmental toxicity stopped being theoretical for him, and Dr. Gildea brings a wealth of clinical insight into why supporting our detox pathways could be a game-changer for chronic disease prevention.

They're at it again. Two years after they last teamed up for a Volts/Catalyst crossover episode, David Roberts joins Shayle for another far-ranging conversation exploring the future of energy. Their prompt was simple: Each host brought three critical questions they want to see answered in the next decade. From “data center fever” to closed-loop critical mineral economics, Shayle and David take the opportunity to dive deep into a myriad of second-order effects of the clean energy transition. In the hour-long conversation, the two hosts cover topics including: The coming explosion of self-driving cars, and whether it will fuel urban sprawl The feasibility of "electrifying everything” and whether a proliferation of “micro-DERs” in home devices will create create a more efficient grid or a software-fueled dystopia The future of off-grid data centers Whether the pros of geoengineering and solar radiation modification, or SRM, outweigh the potential moral hazards Resources: Catalyst: The Volts crossover episode Catalyst: The plug-in DER case for small businesses Catalyst: AMA: Geoengineering, nuclear, power prices, and more Open Circuit: Tesla's fork in the road Latitude Media: The growing free-market push to let data centers go off grid Credits: Hosted by Shayle Kann.

David Roberts spent nearly four decades in finance—starting on Wall Street in 1983 and joining Angelo Gordon in 1993, when the firm was a 15-person shop managing about $300M. By the time he left, the firm managed roughly $50B in assets, and David contributed to that growth by helping build and launch several of the firm's businesses. After retiring, he created Sparks From Culture, a widely read Substack, which provides its nearly 9,000 readers with “weekly personal essays on wealth, status, and family from someone with generational wealth, writing with transparency.”Our host, Ross Overline, is one of David's readers.In this conversation, David and Ross explore the hardest questions finance leaders rarely discuss publicly: How do you know when you have “enough”? Why does comparison keep resetting our definition of success? What are the risks of wealth concentration?They discuss inequality, philanthropy, competing views of capitalism's current state, and how greed often shows up as self-justification. David makes the case for generosity as a stabilizing force in society—and shares how he's translated these beliefs into real, high-impact giving.The episode closes with a simple but unforgettable principle: the butterfly effect—small acts of generosity can change a life more than you'll ever know.Meet David David Roberts is a retired Partner of Angelo Gordon, where he joined in 1993, helping build and scale investment platforms across real estate, structured credit, and net lease. After retiring in 2022, he briefly served in public service as Senior Advisor to Maryland's Secretary of Commerce.In recent years, David has become a thoughtful public voice through his Substack newsletter Sparks From Culture (no payment necessary). All proceeds from paid subscriptions are donated to the Robin Hood Foundation, reflecting David and his wife Debbie's long-standing commitment to impact-driven giving.He holds a B.S. from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

David Roberts and Dr. John Gilday spent years developing Mara Labs after David's wife Mara was diagnosed with breast cancer and they discovered the compound that could help her, sulforaphane from broccoli, didn't exist in stable, absorbable form anywhere. They grew broccoli sprouts for ten families while Dr. Gilday obsessed over stabilizing the molecule. When he finally cracked it, Mara pushed them to share it with the world before she passed away. This episode reveals why most broccoli supplements are essentially worthless, how microplastics are jamming up your cellular detox systems, and why estrogen itself isn't the enemy, but its metabolism might be. You'll learn why berberine outperformed Valium as a sleep aid in studies, how eating late with low insulin production leaves glucose sitting in your blood all night, and why Ozempic's weight loss can be up to 40% muscle. Discover: • The broccoli supplement truth: why 95% of products contain only the precursor molecule that your stomach acid destroys before it can work • The microplastics mechanism: how plastic particles fill up your cellular "drains," blocking the lysosome from clearing waste and creating hormonal noise • The estrogen metabolism shift: why estrogen is protective until it converts to quinones that can make DNA breaks in your genome • The sulforaphane detox pathway: how one compound turns on Nrf2 to activate every cell's built-in detoxification system • The berberine absorption problem: why standard berberine is nearly impossible to dissolve and ends up disrupting your gut microbiome instead of entering your bloodstream • The GLP-1 difference: why natural berberine-induced satiety works without slowing gut motility the way Ozempic does Find Dr. John Gilday & David Roberts: Website: https://mara-labs.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themaralabs  Timestamps: 0:00 - Why most hormonal supplements don't work  1:46 - Hot Seat: Biggest detox mistakes and the NRF2 master switch  3:20 - Is berberine nature's Ozempic?  7:18 - Claire's one-month transformation with sulforaphane  9:21 - How Mara Labs was born from a breast cancer diagnosis  17:00 - Microplastics: the forest fire in your body  24:18 - The estrogen truth: it's not the enemy, the metabolism is  35:04 - Why your matcha works better with sulforaphane  39:17 - Berberine, Ozempic, and fasting in a pill  52:12 - The 40% muscle loss problem with Ozempic (and how to prevent it)

What if the biggest metabolism disruptor today is not carbs or calories, but the toxic load you cannot see? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi sits down with Mara Labs co-founders David Roberts and Dr. John Gildea for a deep dive into microplastics, detox pathways, and the science of sulforaphane. They break down how microplastics and the chemicals that leach from plastics can interfere with cellular function, including lysosomes, autophagy, inflammation, and hormone signaling. You will learn why sulforaphane is known for activating Nrf2, what that means for detox and repair genes, and why the conversation around metabolic health is also a conversation about toxin exposure. They also discuss berberine as a tool for metabolic flexibility, blood sugar support, ketosis, and even sleep, plus new product innovations like BarkElite for dogs. If you want practical strategies backed by research and real-world testing, this one is packed. Key Topics Covered Why microplastics are everywhere and why that matters for metabolism and longevity How microplastics may interfere with lysosomes, autophagy, and cellular cleanup What sulforaphane is and how it activates the Nrf2 pathway Phase 1, 2, and 3 detox explained in plain English Why inflammation is often the real root issue behind stubborn fat loss Berberine, AMPK, GLP-1 signaling, and metabolic flexibility Why late-night eating can wreck sleep and HRV The dog angle: joint support, inflammation, and BarkElite Coupon and Discount  Browse all products featured in this episode : http://www.benazadi.com/mara Mara Labs discount code: FREEDOM 25% off from January 19, 2026 through January 26, 2026 After January 26, 2026: code still works for 15% off Follow Ben Azadi

Tucked inside the first floor of the Gwinnett Historic Courthouse in Lawrenceville, the Gwinnett County Veterans Memorial Museum (GCVMM) is a hidden gem. It’s free, volunteer-run, and packed with over 4,000 artifacts honoring those who’ve served since 1776. The museum’s story is as rich as its collection. It started in 1989 as a small military display, born from a mission to preserve the courthouse and the graves of eight soldiers from the Creek Indian War. After years of effort, it officially opened on Veterans Day 2005. Now, 20 years later, GCVMM is celebrating its anniversary on Nov. 11 from 3–6 p.m. at the Historic Courthouse. Expect patriotic demos, speakers, and tours. It’s free, it’s meaningful, and it’s a chance to honor history. See you there!

Running through Jan. 4, 2026, this bilingual exhibit (English and Spanish) is packed with STEM, art, and civic lessons—plus a whole lot of fun. Find it at 275 Centennial Olympic Park Dr. NW. More info? Head to childrensmuseumatlanta.org. STORY 6: 4-H Farm Friends — A Gwinnett County Fair tradition for more than 3 decades Logan, a sixth-grader with a heart for animals, has always been drawn to anything with fur, feathers, or scales. At his first 4-H event, he spent the day doting on baby ducklings, goats, and sheep—each lovingly named, of course. This year, 4-H Farm Friends is back at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds, running through Sept. 21. For just $1, visitors can cuddle baby chicks, meet cows like Moolan and Ellie May (who turns five on Monday!), and even hang out with goats—new this year. For Logan and his mom, Misty, 4-H is more than animals—it’s community. Pam Bloch, a 4-H leader for 17 years, says the program is about more than cute animals. “We’re teaching kids where their food, clothes, and milk come from,” she said. “It’s hands-on learning they don’t always get in urban areas.” And for Logan? It’s pure joy. STORY 7: Police arrest suspect in North Gwinnett Co-Op burglary A Clarkston man, already serving time in a work-release program for burglary convictions, is now facing fresh charges tied to last month’s break-in at the North Gwinnett Co-Op’s Second Blessings Thrift Store in Buford. Lavan Hickman, 38, was charged with burglary and second-degree criminal damage to property after investigators determined he left the Gwinnett County Correctional Institute on work release before committing the Aug. 19 crime. Surveillance footage showed someone smashing a window with a rock to enter the store, causing over $10,000 in damages. Stolen items included a cash box, money bags, and a Sony camera. Kim Phillips, the co-op’s executive director, expressed heartbreak but also compassion. We’ll have closing comments after this.

Welcome back to Tuesday's Thought, a bonus episode sharing reflections on the most recent episode of the Henny Flynn podcast: The Way of Love: Finding Our Response in a Troubled World (S18E2)There was a single overpowering reflection this week... the power of hope. Without hope we are hopeless, with it we are hopeFULL. This quote from David Roberts seems to say so much that could be useful... important... maybe essential, for us today: “Hope isn't about the future as much as it is about the present." I leave you with a reflection to journal about or ponder over - and if you feel doubt or fear or anger come in that's ok, let them know there's space for them too - and ask the question againWhat makes you hopeful?With loveHenny xPS: This is the link to the episode I mention - recorded with the ever wise Susan McCulley, back in season 4. We were speaking during the time of Covid but many of the reflections feel just as resonant today: Hope is now... with Susan McCulley (S4E2)  ★ Support this podcast ★

In this episode of The Lindsay Elmore Show, Lindsay sits down with David Roberts, co-founder of Mara Labs and a pioneer in sulforaphane supplementation.Sulforaphane, derived from broccoli sprouts, has been called the "master molecule for health" thanks to its ability to support detoxification, reduce inflammation, enhance brain health, and improve metabolic function. David shares the science behind stabilizing sulforaphane, explains why most supplements fall short, and discusses its synergistic effects with molecules like curcumin. From detoxing microplastics to balancing hormones and boosting mitochondrial energy, sulforaphane has far-reaching benefits for overall resilience.Key TakeawaysSulforaphane Basics: A compound found in broccoli sprouts with over 37 documented pro-health mechanisms.Brain Health: Increases BDNF, supporting neuroprotection, neurogenesis, and even enhanced dreaming.Detoxification: Activates NRF2 pathways, turning on over 200 antioxidant and detox genes for up to 72 hours.Inflammation: Synergizes with curcumin to reduce NF-kB and IL-6, two key pro-inflammatory markers.Practical Use: Each capsule of Mara Labs' stabilized sulforaphane equals the benefit of 2.5 pounds of broccoli.Metabolic Impact: Helps balance estrogen, supports mitochondrial energy, and assists in reducing belly fat and insulin resistance.Environmental Defense: Aids the body in processing toxins like glyphosate and mobilizing microplastics.Chapter Timestamps01:00 – What is sulforaphane and why it's the “master molecule”03:00 – How sulforaphane supports brain health through BDNF05:00 – Stabilizing sulforaphane and the challenges of supplementation06:45 – David's personal story: breast cancer diagnosis and discovery of sulforaphane08:00 – How sulforaphane is delivered and stabilized in capsules10:00 – The NRF2 pathway and turning on antioxidant defense13:00 – Detox done right: why many “detox programs” fail15:00 – Curcumin and sulforaphane synergy for inflammation reduction18:00 – Internal studies on inflammation markers (IL-6, NF-kB)20:00 – The real role of detoxification vs. buzzwords24:00 – Toxins in modern life: microplastics, glyphosate, and more28:00 – Genetic modification, glyphosate, and long-term toxicity29:30 – Sulforaphane for metabolism, mitochondrial energy, and belly fat32:00 – Additional Mara Labs products supporting metabolism (GLP-1 alternatives)33:00 – How to learn more: Mara Labs discount link

This episode was originally broadcast in April 2022Alex Honnold is one of the world's best rock climbers, famous for his free solo ascents of big walls, including his 2017 first free solo of El Capitan in Yosemite.Alex began studies in engineering at the University of California-Berkeley but dropped out to pursue his passion for climbing, living out of his van. He first attracted attention within the climbing community in 2008 when he became the first climber to free solo Half Dome in Yosemite. In 2012 he established the speed record for the Yosemite Triple Crown, climbing three big walls in under 19 hours. With Hans Florine, Alex climbed the popular Nose of El Capitan, a nearly 3,000-foot granite wall, in a record time of two hours 23 minutes and 51 seconds – a feat National Geographic described as perhaps " the greatest feat of pure rock climbing in the history of the sport."Alex has been profiled by 60 minutes and the New York Times, appeared on the cover of National Geographic and starred in numerous adventure films. In 2015, together with professional climbing writer David Roberts, he authored Alone on the Wall, the story of seven of his greatest climbing feats up to that year.In 2012 Alex founded the Honnold Foundation to provide solar power to some of the disadvantaged communities he was coming across in his climbing career. In 2021 the Foundation supported 44 communities across 17 countries with its brand of community-centered innovation catalysed by solar energy.Links and more:Watch the video of this episode: https://youtu.be/MwmQf0mhHkEHonnold Foundation: https://www.honnoldfoundation.org/Free Solo Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urRVZ4SW7WUFree Solo website: https://films.nationalgeographic.com/free-soloThe Ascent of Alex Honnold – CBS special report with Lara Logan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SR1jwwagtaQEduro Corner: The most exposed move of Alex's Free Solo climb of El Capitan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blfR33DUqsgProject Bo: https://www.projectbo.org/Project Bo, lessons learned: https://www.liebreich.com/project-bo-saving-lives-in-sierra-leone-with-solar-batteries-and-twitter/

This week, David Roberts is back on the show to discuss what has happened to the Inflation Reduction Act and what it means to clean energy and the climate movement to have such a major setback. We step back to think through the landscape of climate policy now and also reflect on pivotal moments in the recent history of legislative efforts that have shaped the current state of clean energy in the U.S. From his early days at Grist to his influential work at Vox, David offers a unique perspective on the challenges and triumphs of advocating for climate action. We also discuss the shifting political theories and strategies that have influenced policy decisions over the years and examine the complex interplay between politics and climate policy. David explores the role of public perception in shaping policy outcomes and why waking up to the new media enviornment is critical for the climate movement. He argues that changing the narrative around climate solutions can engage broader audiences and drive meaningful action. We also discuss the U.S. and China dynamic in the global energy transition and what he has made of covering Elon Musk over the years.  David Roberts is a renowned journalist and the author of the "Volts" newsletter and podcast.
