    In this episode we have special guest and Independent candidate for PA State Rep, Chris Gambino. Chris has spent more than a decade operating inside the systems that shape public life — science, policy, institutions, agriculture, and governance — not as a spectator, and not as someone repeating party lines, but as someone trained to ask the right questions, measure real outcomes, and make decisions that hold up under pressure. We think you will like getting to know Chris as much as we did!
