    Artificial intelligence, particularly generative A.I., is everywhere these days. And because of that, there's an inherent geography underlying this technology. In today's episode, we cover the geographic biases of A.I., the extractive resources required to run A.I. and then we ask A.I. a bunch of questions about geography to see if it understands what geography is.

    Tornadoes are not unique to the United States. But they do occur within the United States with greater frequency and strength than anywhere else on the planet due to a unique combination of geographic features. In today's episode, we discuss why the U.S. gets so many tornadoes, where they also occur elsewhere in the world, and why Alabama is actually one of the deadliest areas in the world for tornadoes.

    The Moon is not just some celestial object in the sky that peers down on us nightly. It's an integral part of the way our planet functions. Not only does it have a physical impact, as we can see with something like the tidal movements of the ocean, but it's also been a huge source of religion, inspiration, science fiction, and eventually, actual science! As such, the Moon has a geography all unto itself...

    Belize is one pof the more fascinating places in Central America. While it's bordered by Mexico and Guatemala, and shares a geopolitical sphere with Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica, it's not a dominant-Spanish speaking country. In fact, unlike all the other countries, Belize was actually Britain's lone Central American colony for a long time. In this episode, we explore the history and geography of this unique, and gorgeous, Central American country.
