    Special Edition: Tech vs. Privacy - Do You Really Care? Jan 28, 2023

    Perhaps you’re enjoying a new smart device you got over the holidays, or maybe you’re trying to cut back on how much time you spend scrolling on social media. Some of you are probably trying to figure out a way to keep working from home, at least some of the time. No matter what, my guess is that your use of technology has gone up one way or another since the start of the pandemic.

    So what does it all really mean for our data privacy? And do Americans really care about privacy, or will convenience win out almost every time? Today, I’m chatting with Joanna Stern, a senior personal tech columnist for the Wall Street Journal and a contributor for CNBC.

    She’s sharing the personal moments privacy does seem to matter to consumers, whether our devices are actually listening to us, and which newer technologies could be the next to transform our lives in the near future.

    Joanna Stern's documentary: “The iPhone Baby: How 15 Years Shaped a Generation.”

    Two separate presidents – and two separate allegations of mishandling classified documents. Today, we’re taking a look at the investigations into President Biden and former President Trump.

    Richard Painter, former White House ethics lawyer for President George W. Bush, then explains what’s typically in classified documents, and why he says the system our government uses to keep track of them is seriously flawed.

    Special Edition: A Divided Nation – Analyzing the 2022 Midterms Nov 12, 2022

    We might not know all the results from this week’s midterm election but one thing we know for sure: Congress, and American voters, are still just as divided as ever.

He’s a CNN contributor, host of the Flyover Country podcast, and served as an advisor to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Then we’ll hear from Democratic strategist Leslie Marshall. She’s a Fox News contributor and host of the nationally syndicated radio program, “The Leslie Marshall Show.”

    Special Edition: Reaching ‘Net Zero’ - What Will It Really Take? Nov 05, 2022

    Starting this weekend, governments, businesses, and scientific leaders from around the world are gathering in Egypt for the annual United Nations Climate Change Conference. To curb the effects of global warming, a lot of emphases has been put on reaching a specific goal: net zero emissions by 2050.

    That deadline is to, basically, give countries and industries time to implement changes that most scientists say are needed to avoid triggering irreversible, catastrophic effects of climate change. But what does that transformation to net zero really mean and look like in our daily lives?

    Dr. Mekala Krishnan says it’ll fundamentally change every system. She’s a partner at the McKinsey Global Institute and she co-authored a research report that analyzed the economic impact of these changes – the major, society-wide shifts that would have to happen from jobs and cars, to the foods we eat, and beyond.

    Today, we’re doing our best to cut out any sensationalism or politics about the sometimes-very-controversial topics of gun violence and gun laws, and even how or if mental illness plays a role.

    First up, I’m speaking with researcher and practicing emergency physician Dr. Megan Ranney. She’s the co-founder of a nonprofit bringing together medical and public health experts focused on responsible gun stewardship and reducing the rate of firearm injuries and deaths.

    And because we know mass shootings can often cause anxiety and fear, we’ll chat with licensed family therapist Emma McAdam, who you may know from her popular YouTube channel “Therapy in a Nutshell.” She’ll talk about how to calm those emotions so we can still live the life we want.

    Special Edition: What’s Next in a Post-Roe America Jun 24, 2022

    **We are releasing this episode one day early due to the breaking news** It’s official: The U.S. Supreme Court released its ruling Friday that overturns Roe v. Wade, which had guaranteed a woman’s right to an abortion for nearly 50 years. Now, it’ll be up to the states to decide whether to ban or restrict abortions. We’ve been expecting this decision ever since a draft opinion was leaked back in May. But today, we’re asking: what happens next?

    Attorney Greer Donley tells us she expects "chaos” and “confusion" and is sharing the potential legal consequences of the Supreme Court ruling. She recently co-authored a paper published in the Columbia Law Review about this topic called “The New Abortion Battleground.”

    We also get the response and reaction from the president of Texas Right to Life, who also has his doctorate in bioethics and health policy, Dr. John Seago.

    The ongoing story baby formula shortage in the U.S. has left many parents scrambling to find enough to feed their children.

    To help explain how any of this could happen, what parents should do, and what the data shows for the decades-old debate about breastfeeding versus formula, we spoke with economist, New York Times bestselling author, and mother Emily Oster.

    Time magazine recently named her one of its “100 most influential people” of the year, citing her data-driven and popular advice about parenting and pregnancy in her books “Expecting Better” “Cribsheet” and “The Family Firm.” And now, she’s sharing the latest data-driven information with us, too.

    Special Edition: Protecting or Threatening America? ‘Disinfo Board’ Explained May 07, 2022

    Earlier this week, we told you about the Disinformation Governance Board. It’s a new group within the Department of Homeland Security. Officials say it will fight the spread of misleading or false information that could have real-life consequences, especially when it comes from the Russian government or human smugglers.

    But there’s not a lot of information yet about how it will work. Some even worry it will turn into something like the fictional “Ministry of Truth” that pushed state-sponsored propaganda in the novel “1984.”

    We hope to break down the arguments from both sides of this and clear up any confusion you may have after seeing some of the headlines. To help us do that, we’re welcoming back the woman known as “America’s government teacher,” and host of the popular podcast “Sharon Says So,” Sharon McMahon.

    Special Edition: American in Ukraine + What is a War Crime? Apr 30, 2022

    As Russia continues to wage war in Ukraine, some Americans and others around the world are leaving their more comfortable lives behind to go help. Today we’re hearing from a U.S. veteran-turned-volunteer in Ukraine. David Ribardo launched a group called Volunteers for Ukraine to organize relief efforts and collect donations, and now he’s there himself on the ground to help deliver supplies.

    And later, what is a war crime? The United Nations is working to gather evidence of war crimes committed in Ukraine. If Russian soldiers or even President Vladimir Putin himself were to be indicted, what would happen next? We’re getting answers from an expert on international law, Rosa Celorio. She is the associate dean for International and Comparative Legal Studies at GW Law.

    Special Edition: Untold Stories of Non-Ukrainian Refugees Apr 02, 2022

    Today we’re taking another deep dive into the human impact of the war in Ukraine and sharing the stories of some refugees you may not have heard about yet. Among the millions of people fleeing are tens of thousands of people who aren’t from Ukraine, but still need a safe place to go. Their stories suggest they’re facing additional obstacles because of their race, citizenship, or both.

    Isha shares the stories of African students living in Ukraine, explains why she feels some of the news coverage of what’s happening has been offensive and offers a way for everyone to get involved — even if it’s as simple as posting on social media.

    Isha's book: “Beneath the Tamarind Tree: A Story of Courage, Family, and the Lost Schoolgirls of Boko Haram”

    Special Edition: Hate Changing Clocks? Here’s Why We Do It Mar 19, 2022

    It’s been almost a week since Daylight Saving Time began. Why we do change our clocks twice a year? Polls have shown most American adults don’t like it. The Senate just easily passed a bill to stop the practice of changing our clocks, although if it actually becomes law, it would be up to the states whether to stay on Standard Time or switch to Daylight Saving Time year-round.

    Today, we’re sharing a bit about DST’s past. Here to break it down for us is the man who wrote the book on time, Dr. Mike O'Malley. He’s the author of “Keeping Watch: A History of American Time,” and he teaches history at George Mason University. O'Malley explains why the very idea of a man-made clock was controversial in the beginning, how it evolved into the practice of changing our clocks twice a year, and some pros and cons of it all.

    Special Edition: Our ‘Space Junk’ Problem Mar 05, 2022

    What happens to the stuff we send to space when it breaks or collides with something else? A lot of it turns into what’s often referred to as ‘space junk.’ There are thousands of pieces of junk orbiting Earth all the time.

    Just this week, one of those pieces - an old rocket - crashed into the moon. There was no major impact on Earth from that rocket part but other space junk could be more of a threat.

    Today I’m joined by renowned space environmentalist and astrodynamicist Dr. Moriba Jah from the University of Texas. He’s credited with developing the world’s first crowd-sourced tool to better track objects in space. He’s also the co-founder and chief scientist for Privateer Space, a company working to monitor satellites and debris in Earth’s orbit like never before.

    We spoke with Dr. Jah just before the rocket hit the moon. He told us space junk is a much bigger problem than that one rocket and has the power to disrupt not only our future in space, but life here on Earth.

    Ukraine is now fighting off the biggest European attack since WWII. Russia has invaded the Democratic country with missiles, air raids, tanks, and troops. Ukraine's leader has called on everyone to fight back, turning civilians into soldiers.

He has won the prestigious Medal for Distinguished Public Service from the U.S. Defense Department. And, his expertise dates back more than 30 years, from when he got his Ph.D. in Russian and Soviet military history at Yale University.

    We talked to him about Russia's invasion strategy, the possible damage to the Ukrainian people, and whether he thinks Russia will pose an even bigger threat to the rest of Europe.

    Special Edition: Facebook Papers Fallout with Former Employee Nov 06, 2021

    Facebook and its parent company, rebranded as “Meta,” are still dealing with what’s been called the worst public relations crisis the company has ever experienced.

    She says the leaked documents, now known as the “Facebook Papers,” are only part of the full story. She’s giving us an inside look at the company’s culture and later, weighs in on the shift to the metaverse.

    Special Edition: Movie Set Safety w/ Halyna Hutchins’ Teacher Oct 30, 2021

    It was an old-timey Western with a modern, real-life tragic ending. A crew member was shot and killed while filming the movie “Rust” in New Mexico. As we’ve covered here on The Newsworthy, actor Alec Baldwin fired the antique revolver that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza.

    Authorities say an assistant director told Baldwin the gun was "cold," meaning it didn’t have any live rounds in it, before he pulled the trigger. But that wasn’t the case. Investigators now say they think the gun did in fact contain live ammunition. But they’re still investigating and deciding who, if anyone, should face criminal charges.

    To get a better idea of what may have gone wrong, and what should have happened, I’m talking with the president of the American Society of Cinematographers, Stephen Lighthill. He’s also sharing his memories of Halyna Hutchins since she used to be his student at the American Film Institute.
