Artificial intelligence, particularly generative A.I., is everywhere these days. And because of that, there's an inherent geography underlying this technology. In today's episode, we cover the geographic biases of A.I., the extractive resources required to run A.I. and then we ask A.I. a bunch of questions about geography to see if it understands what geography is. -

Tornadoes are not unique to the United States. But they do occur within the United States with greater frequency and strength than anywhere else on the planet due to a unique combination of geographic features. In today's episode, we discuss why the U.S. gets so many tornadoes, where they also occur elsewhere in the world, and why Alabama is actually one of the deadliest areas in the world for tornadoes. -

The Moon is not just some celestial object in the sky that peers down on us nightly. It's an integral part of the way our planet functions. Not only does it have a physical impact, as we can see with something like the tidal movements of the ocean, but it's also been a huge source of religion, inspiration, science fiction, and eventually, actual science! As such, the Moon has a geography all unto itself... -

Belize is one pof the more fascinating places in Central America. While it's bordered by Mexico and Guatemala, and shares a geopolitical sphere with Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica, it's not a dominant-Spanish speaking country. In fact, unlike all the other countries, Belize was actually Britain's lone Central American colony for a long time. In this episode, we explore the history and geography of this unique, and gorgeous, Central American country. -

All answered on today's podcast episode! -

Trains are an incredibly important piece of transportation technology. But while the United States is not often considered to be a train country overall, it actually kind of is! It's just not one for passengers. Still, the U.S. has more active track than any other single country and hauls much of our goods from city to city. Join us as we tackle the global geography of trains including who carries the most passengers, what the longest rail line is, and what the United States', Canada's and Mexico's rail infrastructure looks like. -

Pizza has really become one of the most global dishes. From its humble beginnings as a street food in Italy, to becoming localized in various ways all around the world. This has lead to some of the most contentious debates: Does pineapple belong on pizza? Does New York or Chicago have better pizza? Should Pizza be cut into squares? Everyone has an opinion! In this episode, Geoff and Hunter explore how pizza traveled the world, and dive deep into a few of the more popular styles of pizza in the United States. -

The Nile River is an incredible geographic feature on our planet. But despite being so closely associated with Egypt, it actually runs through many other countries making it equally important to hundreds of millions of people. Despite this importance, one dam being constructed in Ethiopia could upend how and where water goes throughout much of the Nile River basin. And this is leaving some really large geopolitical questions hanging out in the open. -

More than anything else, petroleum (or gasoline) truly makes the world go round. It powers our personal vehicles, freight trucks, train, and ships and even our large passenger jets. Because of this it's extremely valuable! So much so that oil is being extracted from the ground on every continent except Antarctica. In this episode, we run through the geography of oil production, how oil became a staple fuel, and what "peak oil" even means anymore. -

The U.S. Postal Service is a foundational part of the United States. And during it's nearly 250 year existence it's delivered a lot of mail! One way in which it's been able to be so effectvie is by carving up the country into ZIP codes, which have since spread far and wide to become a defacto geographic unit for things well beyond carrying mail. Here's the incredibly geography of the U.S. Postal Service! -

The beauty of the National Parks in the United States are one of the few things most Americans can agree on today. However, did you know that there was a chance we would never have a national park system at all? Were it not for some key decisions by a few people, the entire system of parks, monuments, trails, and more would simply not exist. In today's episode we'll cover what a national park is in the United States, how they came to be, how parks are created, and why we love them so very much. -
