In this episode of The Sean Trace Show, I sit down with Maynard Okereke, also known as the Hip Hop MD. We dive into why science literacy matters more now than ever, how curiosity fuels discovery, and how merging pop culture with science can inspire the next generation. Maynard shares his journey breaking into science communication, the challenges of representation in STEM, and why empowering kids to think critically changes everything. We talk about my daughter’s journey learning science, the first Vietnamese woman in space, and how we can bring back the “wow factor” of discovery. If you’ve ever felt that science was out of reach, this conversation will show you—it belongs to everyone.
