Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
It is finally starting to feel like spring and the new season brings the promise of new beginnings as well as a whole lot of pollen. Some people say if you come to D.C. without an allergy, there’s a chance you will leave with one. What causes spring allergies, particularly here in our region? What steps can you take to avoid those itches and sneezing fits? And is climate change affecting the way we experience seasonal allergies? We discuss with a botanist and an allergist.
Guests
- Rachel Schreiber Allergist and Immunologist
- Laurence Dorr Chair of the Botany Department at the Smithsonian Institution
