Max Lenormand, geospatial data scientist, podcaster, and continually curious frenchman teaches us about the fascinating Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and the background behind his books Night Flight and *The Little Prince*. We talk about humans' strange ambition, personal sacrifice, mortality, immortality, aviation, communication networks, and why love is a choice.
