This week on Everybody in the Pool, we’re celebrating our 100th episode with a look at what matters most: your actions.
Since this show began a little over two years ago, the goal has been simple — to spotlight innovation, ingenuity, and capital coming together to tackle the climate crisis. Hope is stronger than fear, but hope alone isn’t a plan. This milestone episode is about agency — the choices we make in our own lives, and how together, those choices add up to systemic change.
Listeners wrote in and sent voice memos sharing the climate actions they’ve taken:
- Investing through platforms like Climatize to fund renewable energy projects
- Moving retirement savings and banking into fossil fuel–free funds and community credit unions
- Cutting back on red meat, shifting diets, and sourcing local food
- Tackling food waste with apps like FlashFood and composting with Mill (our presenting sponsor for this week’s episode)
- Retrofitting homes with solar, heat pumps, and energy efficiency upgrades
- Rethinking careers, transportation, and even family planning with the climate in mind
Along the way, we revisit powerful clips from past episodes and highlight the ripple effects of these solutions — from decarbonizing finance to building circular food systems.
Thank you to everyone who has listened, shared, and taken action. This episode is a reminder that we are not helpless — our feedback, votes, purchases, and investments all send signals that drive change. Drops become a flood.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
