As water shortages intensify across the globe, one company is betting on a controversial solution: making it rain—literally. In this episode, we’re joined by Augustus Doricko, founder and CEO of Rainmaker, to break down the science, promise, and misconceptions around cloud seeding.

We explore how this decades-old technology has advanced, what it could mean for agriculture and the environment, and why it’s drawing renewed interest. Doricko walks us through how cloud seeding actually works, the regulatory safeguards in place, and how it differs from more speculative geoengineering efforts. He also weighs in on the ethics of weather modification and why water access is becoming a national security issue.  He also fact checks various theories when it comes to ways the weather CANNOT be altered. 

Note: Our conversation took place before the recent record flooding in central Texas. Rainmaker faced accusations on social media that their cloud seeding may have contributed to it. We include Doricko’s response.

In the aftermath of the worst mass shooting in NYC in 25 years, we speak with NYC mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo as new details emerge about the attack and the suspect. The former NY governor discusses the state of gun violence, what he thinks needs to be done about assault weapons at the federal level, and how ‘Mayor Cuomo’ would handle public safety and the NYPD differently.

We dig into the NYC mayoral race, his loss to Zohran Mamdani in the primary, what he learned, and why he’s staying in the race as an independent. He weighs in on Mamdani’s proposals, why he thinks Mayor Eric Adams should drop out, the rise of “democratic socialism,” President Trump, the migrant crisis, antisemitism and what’s at stake for New York City in November.

We also revisit his record as governor, including the landmark NY SAFE Act counteracting gun violence, and his economic and infrastructure initiatives as he tells us why he thinks it's inaccurate to say ‘blue states’ can’t get things done. He also addresses Mo News community questions about his controversies, including about his COVID policies, and the sexual misconduct allegations that led to his resignation from governor.
