 Listen Now to Future News and Views

Needless to say, the Ukraine war is on all of our minds these days.  Never has social media played such an important role in providing us with information as to what is going on in the war torn area, with TikTok, Twitter and Youtube at the forefront of the disaster. To help make matters even more granular, Elon Musk has shipped a truckload of Starlink terminals to the Ukraine, to insure future internet connectivitity as local infrastructure crumbles. Viewing this war through the lens of social media gives us more info to chew on, and more propaganda to wade through.  But hey, we’d rather do that than simply listen to approved stories by the agenda-driven news agences. Many narratives are explored in today’s news segment, including those from you, our listeners and callers. Enjoy!

Hey, the ‘horizon’ could only be 5 years away for the next 10. (that’s a joke.)   And while we are waiting, we can have nanobots clean toxins from our blood and regenerate extra limbs, in case we lose one! Enjoy.
