The Documentary PodcastFloods hit Texas, then came the cloud talkBBC Trending: Why are some Americans yelling at clouds?On 4 July, just hours after flash floods hit the US state of Texas, killing more than 130 people, social media was inundated with unfounded theories about the causes of this tragedy.

These baseless claims were quickly debunked by scientists. And yet, online, calls for the companyâs CEO, Augustus Doricko, to be arrested, punished - or, more sinisterly, executed - co...

Product Market FitEp58: e/acc, the Gundo, and turning deserts into forests â Product Market Fit podcast (startups | technology | growth)Happy New Year!
We're kicking off 2024 with a bang! Augustus Doricko is the youngest founder I've interviewed and perhaps the most ambitious. His company, Rainmaker, is looking to use cloud-seeding technology to revitalize the American West and, in his words, extend the Great Plains into Nevada and Arizona.
We talked about e/acc and why hard tech is the answer to the growing sense of doomism. And what's happening in "the Gundo" (El Segundo, CA).
I love his optimism and ambition and enjoyed our wide-ranging conversation.
