Gabriel's incredible! I helped hire him and I would do it all over again...my DMs open for anyone who is looking for a smart, kind editor!
I’m afraid I am one of the casualties. Working w/the team @NPRShortWave for the past year has been a beautiful dream, and unfortunately now it’s time to wake up. Please do send me your job listings/freelance opportunities. And you should keep listening to the show; I sure will.

I second this a million percent - hire Aaron Scott! It was a terrible week for Short Wave, we're reeling. But one lucky shop now has the opportunity to snag Aaron.

I don't have the words right now. I am devastated. Please hire @aaronscottNPR. Everything you make will be better because he's your colleague.

Had a super fun conversation w/ @ArachnologyNerd! However, my reaction to seeing a 4ft TO SCALE model of an ancient scorpion was cut from the ep! I'm looking at you, BEX! ..But big thanks to Lauren! AND great job with this ep @rebeccalramirez & @ggrayson npr.org/2022/10/05/112698508…

Replying to @NPRShortWave
I can build a shelter & light a fire without a match; I twice caught kitchen mice with colanders, so obvs I can trap & hunt; I have lots of hand sanitizer; and I throw good theme parties, so I can help organize those nightly, post-apocalyptic, dance-into-oblivion, Mad Max raves.

So @aaronscottNPR what are your skillsets in this post-apocalyptic future?
I am an armored mech warrior in a color-coordinated bow tie. I have never felt so seen. My life is complete.

Space has black holes so powerful no object can resist. Editors like @ggrayson have ceiling holes so powerful that some pitches don't make it out.

Before I was a science journalist for @NPR, I was a circus performer in Alaska. I'm talking leotards, face jewels, forearm muscles. The tricks look impossible, but physics is on your side. Circus artist and #physics educator Julia Ruth shows us how on today's @NPRShortWave 🎪🧵
