BEST OF 2018: Is It Harder to Build Clean Power Plants or Play in a Reputable Cover Band?

BEST OF 2018: Is It Harder to Build Clean Power Plants or Play in a Reputable Cover Band?

Back in Episode 38, Quinn & Brian asked: Is it harder to build clean power plants or play in a reputable cover band?

Our guest Sean Casten then went on to win the election for congressman of Brian’s home district, Illinois’ 6th! There’s a little more hope in the world, so we want to re-introduce you to these kickass STEM politicians. 

Sean is a scientist, clean energy entrepreneur, and cover band member who ran against Peter Roskam, who called climate change “junk science,” which is really all we needed to hear to know that Sean is the right man for Illinois’’ 6th district. Plus, Sean is backed by our friends at 314 Action, an incredible group of people who are smarter than us trying to get other people who are smarter than us elected. You can check out our previous episodes with 314 Action founder Shaughnessy Naughton (episode 35) and fellow Congressional candidates Chrissy Houlahan (episode 37) and Joseph Kopser (episode 32).
