SciPol Connect is a podcast by the Penn State Science Policy Society that aims to connect listeners with the experiences of leaders working in science policy. Whether you're considering a career in science policy or just like to geek out over science, this is a great podcast for you. In our very first podcast, we talk with Ambassador Dave Balton - Senior Fellow at the Wilson Center - about his career and the use of science in shaping ocean policy.
