Mark Rober – former NASA engineer, creator, educator and the guy who makes science feel like must-watch entertainment – sits down with T-Mobile’s Chief Brand & Communications Officer for a conversation about curiosity, connection and what happens when big ideas become simple enough for everyone to feel.
Mark shares how he went from working on the Curiosity Rover to building a massive YouTube audience, why great technology should feel effortless, and how storytelling can turn even the most complex concepts into something people actually care about. Across AI, robotics, and MLB’s automated ball-strike system, Lucy McLellan and Mark explore the human side of innovation – where technology helps us do more, understand more and connect more deeply.
They also talk about the power of education, Class Crunch Labs, and why sparking curiosity in the next generation may be one of the most important things we can do. Along the way, the conversation touches on T-Mobile’s Live Translation, Project 10Million, and the role technology can play in breaking barriers for families, students, communities and sports fans.
This is a conversation about the future of technology that keeps coming back to what matters most: people.
