The massive failure of Silicon Valley Bank is not only sending shock waves through the tech industry, but also through the entire US Banking industry, and it has the potential to disrupt the entire US economy. In fact, two other banks failed last week as well. Could it be a trend? That's why federal regulators took swift action to limit the damage yesterday, and why President Biden assured the nation that banks are safe, and our economy remains strong. But, how and why did this happen,

While there are already a lot of ways to save energy and money by retrofitting your home with new windows, weather stripping, and insulation; wouldn't it be cool if you could do even more, just by using a different kind of building material? Well, now you can–or, at least you'll be able to soon–as a result of a new tech breakthrough in energy efficient building materials pioneered by researchers at Purdue University. Listen now to our conversation with Purdue University Assistant Civil Engineering

*Please note, this story was updated to correct technical issues, on 3-6-23 This week, we're taking a deep dive into clean water technology. We decided to look into it, in response to the big train derailment and toxic chemical release in East Palestine, Ohio, which is about 76 miles Southeast of Akron. Is anything going on with their water going to affect us? Could the kind of thing that happened there, happen here? These are the kinds of questions that guided our conversations, but

This week, it's all about recent breakthroughs that point the way toward a future with better, faster, and more secure computers, as well as nearly unlimited clean energy. Listen now, for word from the National Science Foundation, about some new research being done now at the University of Rochester, which could make it easier to mass produce quantum computers. We'll also hear an easy to understand explanation of nuclear fusion from our featured guest , Physics Professor, Dr. Susan Ramlo,

As the use of Artificial Intelligence increases; the race is on for humans to redefine themselves and their professional expertise. That's the word from author, organizational Psychologist, and Artificial Intelligence expert, Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, and the topic of his new book, "I, Human: AI, Automation, and the Quest to Reclaim What Makes Us Unique". This topic took on increasing urgency this week, as journalists from the New York Times and Washington Post testing Microsoft's new

From James Bond's super spy Aston Martin, to Elon Musk’s tricked-out Teslas; the cars we own, drive, and aspire to impress with, have had an outsized hold on America's consciousness and mythology for over 100 years. But, the problem is; we don't just drive them; they drive us to make monthly car payments, and lament the ever-increasing cost of gas, insurance, license tags, parking, and maintenance. But what are you going to do? Some lucky Americans live in cities where taking mass transit is

A new artificial intelligence- powered chatbot called ChatGPT is taking the world of education by storm, because it can write so well; it can seem like its work was produced by a human. In addition, the bot can write computer code, which could be harnessed by criminals or nation states bent on thievery, mayhem, and even cyber war. So, what can we do about it, how should educators respond, and what's next? Find out, with Stark State College Associate Professor of Information Security, Glenn

You've probably heard by now that federal officials have been talking about the harmful effects of gas emissions from stoves, and the possibility of new regulations. But, what does that mean, or could it mean for you and your stove at home, and on a larger scale; what does it mean to global climate change overall? We'll find out today through a series of reports with experts in the area, including several from here in Ohio.

Seattle Public Schools sued a number of big tech companies this week, claiming the purposely addictive nature of their products is causing a mental health crisis that makes it both more difficult and expensive to educate their students. President Biden also came out this week calling on congress to more tightly regulate big tech companies, in part, because of the same concerns raised in federal court by Seattle schools. Listen now, as we explore that topic with Assistant Professor of Communications,
