Hour one: Science for the Masses. Gabriel Licina, Jeffrey Tibbetts, Co-Founders
Science for the Masses is an independent team of research-minded individuals dedicated to making the tools and resources of science more available to the layperson. Their mission is to aid in the development of “citizen science”; they want to see the tools and resources necessary to perform scientific research made available to anyone that wants them. To this end, all of their research is and will be published free and open source, and will be repeatable by the layperson—meaning no multimillion dollar lab equipment.

Hour two: Brio. Jocelyn Painter, Brio Spokesperson
Each year, thousands of children and adults are injured or killed through electrical hazards, fire and other common household dangers. It’s shocking. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Because now there’s Brio, the world’s safest, smartest power outlet. Cool and sophisticated, yet infused with breakthrough technologies, Brio can make your home as safety-smart as you. It employs state-of-the-art microelectronics to tell between things that need power and people that need protection. It can also use advanced wireless innovations and mobile technology to create a complete 24/7 home monitoring system that virtually eliminates shock hazards, plus keeps people safer by alerting them to things like smoke, flooding and the presence of carbon monoxide. Another breakthrough from International Safety and Development (ISD), Brio quite simply revolutionizes the power outlet, helping people live better, sleep better, and enjoy a better quality of life.
Safer sockets. Smarter homes.
