FORGOTTEN AMERICA
Welcome to Forgotten America, a podcast about the many places that get flown over, driven past, or completely forgotten and the people who call these places home. In each episode, we’ll diagnose the unique challenges faced by rural America and unpack and explore the solutions to those challenges. We’ll also share the culture, stories, and perspectives of Forgotten Americans from the hilltop to the holler and the desert to the delta.
A MOMENT OF COMFORT
A Moment Of Comfort is just that--a space to reflect on a small good thing about life. Like a cup of good soup with a side of crusty bread, it's a reprieve from the anxiety of our current world. From freshly laundered linens to a good stretch, the perfect playlist to an unexpected text from a far-flung friend, these short audio essays revel in the good things nearly anyone can appreciate.
DISRUPTION NETWORK LAB
Examining the intersection of politics, technology, and society, Disruption Network Lab exposes the misconduct and wrongdoing of the powerful. Disruption Network Lab is an ongoing platform of events and research focused on the intersection of politics, technology and society. We are a Berlin-based nonprofit organisation in Germany (Disruption Network Lab e. V.) that has since 2014 organised participatory, interdisciplinary, international events at the intersection of human rights and technology with the objective of strengthening freedom of speech, and exposing the misconduct and wrongdoing of the powerful. We develop work that advocates for the globally marginalised. Disruption Network Lab (http://www.disruptionlab.org/#teaser) organises inter-disciplinary conferences at the interface of scholarship and politics and local meetups throughout the year in Berlin.

ANY QUESTIONS?
We choose to highlight themes that aren't usually talked about in the wellness presentations that we deliver on campus. That's because a lot of wellness topics, and the topics we discuss in this podcast, may be a bit more nuanced, complex, or are sometimes difficult discussing in a short presentation or a group setting. While they may be personal, complex, or sometimes uncomfortable, we get asked these questions and want to create a platform where we can explore them in an accessible way for students. So pop in your ear buds on your walk to class and get a sense of what we get asked and what we have to say on Any Questions?
REIMAGINING THE FUTURE
How is the massive disruption of the past few years leading to transformation, opportunities, new challenges and a new reality? Has our world fundamentally shifted as a result of the COVID pandemic, ongoing wars, climate change, and emerging economic and geopolitical challenges? What does the future look like for the next generation, and how will the baton be passed from the leaders of the past decades to future leaders? In this podcast series, host Paul Laudicina brings together the world’s leading and emerging experts in health care, science, public policy, and business to reimagine where the future might take us. Our guests offer new perspectives and highlight the tensions and complexity we're all navigating, helping to illuminate new paths forward. Reimagining the Future is produced by the Global Business Policy Council at Kearney, a think tank that deciphers sweeping geopolitical, economic, social, and technological changes and their effects on the global business environment.
