Katie Mullaly
Cool Science Radio Co-HostScience has been a passion of Katie Mullaly’s since she was a child: from staring up at the stars, hunting for fossils, exploring the geology of Uintah Basin (where she grew up), and always just wondering WHY? Katie took this love of science (and an innate ability to communicate and teach these complex topics) and formed both her graduate and undergraduate degrees around Science Communication.
Katie is also the author and publisher of the highly-acclaimed, Land of… Children’s Books series where she shares her passion for teaching, creating greater awareness, and living a conscious life.
Katie has a BS in Science Communication and an MS in Professional Master of Science and Technology, both from the University of Utah, and is working on a “PhD” in being a better human. She will be working on her dissertation on being a conscious, caring, more connected person for the rest of her life, and looks forward to sharing that work with anyone who will read her books, and listen to Cool Science Radio.

Author Richard Simon, who went all-in to discover what would happen without his smartphone, for a whole year, shares his story of digital detox in his new book, "Unplug: How to Break Up with Your Phone and Reclaim Your Life." Then, researchers have found that most spring runoff heading to our reservoirs is actually several years old, indicating that most mountain snowfall has a years-long invisible journey as groundwater before it leaves the mountains. Paul Brooks, a professor of Geology and Geophysics at the University of Utah, tells us more about this study and our water’s trajectory.
