Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Developers build oceanfront houses, hurricanes destroy them, then taxpayers bail out the property owners. It’s an ongoing cycle that costs Americans billions of dollars a year and has many environmentalists up in arms. Kojo and guests discuss the risks of coastal development, and what measures the government employs to control it.
Guests
- Jane Bullock Chief of Staff, Federal Emergency Management Agency
- Charlie Hess Chief of Operations Division in the Office of Civil Works, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
- Jamie Hawkins Head of Services Division, Office of Meteorology, National Weather Service Headquarters
