In New York, the team learns the importance of keeping a flexible mindset when they meet Radiolab radio host Jad Abumrad. Recounting his failed attempts at other careers, Jad notes that he never entertained radio as a career, but has found it to be a surprisingly satisfying assimilation of his interests.
