The Air We Share

The Air We Share Podcast

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of The Air We Share, a new Friends of the National Center podcast spotlighting the untold stories of our retired colleagues from UCAR, NSF NCAR, and UCP; the people whose curiosity helped shape the science, culture, and legacy of our organization.

Listen In!

Each episode, we sit down with retirees whose drive and inquisitiveness carried them through decades of groundbreaking science, community, and collaboration.

In season one, we explore the theme of curiosity — what sparked it, where it led, and how it shaped the atmosphere of their lives and work.

These are their stories. In their own words.

Because the air we share… is full of questions.

EPISODES

Episode 1 – Wendy Abshire

This podcast is a celebration of the people who made this community what it is and an invitation to reflect on what drives discovery across generations.

Whether you’re a current staff member, a fellow retiree, or someone invested in the future of atmospheric research, we hope you’ll listen, share, and stay curious.

If these stories resonate with you and you want to support our efforts to preserve and share more voices from our history while inspiring the next generation, please consider a gift to Friends of the National Center. Every contribution helps keep our collective story alive and contributes to the advancement of the organization’s scientists and researchers.
