In this episode of Art and Science Punks Kate and Rob talk about what encouragement looks like to us, parts of encouragement, how it might be just the right thing to share with someone or feel like unwelcome pressure. 

Kate and Rob also share an art pick and a science pick this week: one is racing marbles; the other about growing crystals in a way they&#39;ve not encountered before.
