Prepare to set sail on an informative adventure as we dive deep into the mysteries of the ocean, explore the mind-boggles of inattentional blindness, and unravel the secrets of a groundbreaking weight loss drug.

Ever wondered about the marvels of weight loss drugs?
Eager to uncover their potential benefits and drawbacks? We embark on a voyage of discovery with OZEMPIC, exploring its health outcomes and how it mimics a gut hormone to suppress appetite.

But that's not all!

We also venture into a quirky discussion about dogs and inattentional blindness, pondering whether humans are susceptible too.

Our lively exploration then plunges us into the awe-inspiring world of marine geology, guided by Dr. Wright's vivid stories from her Hawaiian upbringing and experiences with underwater volcanoes.

And hold on tight, for we're about to plunge even deeper!

Travel with us to the Challenger Deep, the deepest part of the world's oceans, as we discuss its geological wonders and history of exploration. We then surface to the world of deep-sea submersibles, marvelling at the engineering feats and safety measures that make these dives possible. The expedition doesn't end there though.

We steer towards Esri, a billion-dollar company revolutionizing the world with free and user-friendly mapping tools, as Dr. Wright shares her journey from academia to becoming the Chief Scientist at Esri. So buckle up for a journey packed with scientific discoveries, intriguing insights, and a generous dash of humor.
