Florida is riddled with sinkholes, and the state’s sinkhole policies are in flux.

On this week’s FIRE podcast, Dr. Robert Brinkmann, Professor Of Geography at the University of South Florida, talks with host Arin Greenwood about sinkholes: why Florida is full of them, the problems with current sinkhole policy, and what he wishes people understood about these fascinating geologic phenomena.
