Chuey's Story -- RISE takes listeners on a journey of the San Francisco Bay: underneath the surface to swim with harbor seals and phytoplankton, overhead to soar with a million migratory birds, and along the coast to explore marshlands and skyscrapers that ring the Bay. On the way, the program addresses the impact of climate change. This episode introduces listeners to a single community and family. While adaptation to climate change is necessary, it will not be easy. And in the process, there will be winners and losers.

Southern Wyoming -- Wyoming is the least populated state in the U.S. In this sparsely populated landscape where private property and self sufficiency are prized, community is built on the expectation that distant neighbors might need to rely on one another one day. When people come together here, they have to have good reason to. The program brings listeners to the towns of Laramie, Cheyenne and the surrounding landscape in Southern Wyoming for a look at how the things that happen in the small towns and countryside of rural America can change the country as a whole.
