Hurricane Ian wrecked havoc and destruction across the Sunshine State. And Florida native and marine biologist Nicole Kirchhoff joined host Chelsea Henderson to describe what the damage from the ground is like. She talked about the localized flooding, climate change's role and the impact on the storm's intensity plus how she, her family, neighbors and people across Florida are picking up the pieces.

This is Nicole's second time on the podcast and our thoughts and prayers are with her as well as everyone affected by the storm. Listen to more episodes of the podcast below or via https://republicen.org/podcast.
