Erum and Karl reflect on their journey of producing nearly 100 episodes over two years. They discuss the challenges of consistency, the behind-the-scenes work required, and the evolution of their podcast from a simple idea to a platform that amplifies voices in the biotech space. Highlights include their gratitude to guests and collaborators, feedback from listeners, and the growing impact of their conversations, which now extend beyond audio, into video content and live events. As they look forward to the next 100 episodes, Erum and Karl express excitement about continuing to explore the frontiers of biotechnology and science communication!
