{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Climate Underground Podcast","slug":"climateunderground","podcastDescription":"Did you know that petroleum is as natural as water? That radioactivity keeps our planet warm? That Earth is still in what’s called an ice-house state? These are stories from Climate Underground, a podcast hosted by scientist, author, journalist, and professor Robert Thorson that examines our current climate crisis from an earthly perspective. Learning more about the Earth and its geological history has helped his students cope with climate confusion, misinformation, and exaggeration. All episodes are read from written scripts that are sourced from the scientific and secondary literature. These scripts are in the process of being reviewed for listenability and accuracy by students and scientific colleagues. \n\nThumbnail image from NASA.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/14026407/Climate_Underground_Square_Cover_Image_Final_copy_v69sib.jpg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/14026407/Climate_Underground_Square_Cover_Image_Final_copy_v69sib_1200x628.jpg?s=1b151f8c243746dd1f9427526e70c8dd&e=jpg","podcastUrl":"https://climateunderground.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/climateunderground/feed.xml","theme":"elegant","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pu/pbblog-r3mss-d606a7","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":15,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-05:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-5,"text":"(GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/New_York"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":26,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"Robert Thorson","engagementStatsBaseUrl":null,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-r3mss-d606a7-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":3600,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://r4j68.app.goo.gl/?link=https%3A%2F%2Fclimateunderground.podbean.com%3Faction%3DopenPodcast%26podcastId%3Dpbblog14026407%26podcastIdTag%3Dr3mss&dfl=https%3A%2F%2Fclimateunderground.podbean.com&utm_campaign=pb_web&utm_source=podbean_web&utm_medium=dlink&imv=670&amv=530&isi=973361050&ibi=com.podbean.app.podcast&ipbi=com.podbean.app.podcast&apn=com.podbean.app.podcast","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Avenir"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#8fc31f"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":null},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"
