Show Notes

Hosts: Jeff Cunningham and Ryan Harris

Description: In the final episode of The Triple Point Podcast, Jeff and Ryan look back on the impacts of Hurricanes Helene and Milton across Florida and other parts of the southeast, and Ryan talks about his experience in the eye of Hurricane Milton. Originally recorded on October 17th just before the U.S. elections, there was plenty of conspiracy theories racing across social media about whether the government has the ability to create or control hurricanes. Jeff and Ryan dive into weather modification and geoengineering, Russia's propaganda disinformation campaign, and of course talk at length about the continual problem of risk communication, risk psychology, and decision making.
