This episode originally aired on September 10, 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic has done a big damage to the American economy.

Less than 50 days remain until Election Day. Polls have been remarkably stable, despite a summer marked by nationwide protests over racial injustice, devastating wildfires raging on the West Coast, and the ongoing pandemic, which has ravaged the economy and is now blamed for nearly 200,000 U.S. deaths.

Summer is not officially over just yet, but the weather is changing, and with that comes the migration of the Monarch butterflies. These important pollinators visit many perennial flowers native to Ohio along their journey. The Chadwick Arboretum and Learning Gardens hosts a Monarch Butterfly Waystation to help them along their way.

The plight of working-class families, and the women who quietly raise them, take center stage in a new novel set in 1950s Ohio. Classified as fiction but rooted in reality, The Daughters of Erietown spans generations and reflects the gender inequality, class struggles and racism through the experiences of one Midwest family.

Millions of migratory birds are set to fill the skies above Ohio as they make their way toward more tropical climates. Telling them apart can be tricky, as many songbirds swap their vibrant spring plumage for more muted feathers on their trek south.

President Trump has been on the defensive this month, beginning with The Atlantic report that Trump had called American service members “losers” and “suckers.” The White House has denied this story. Then, last week, journalist Bob Woodward in his new book titled “Rage” revealed what Trump knew early on in the pandemic.

The pandemic has many people cooking at home like never before. For a lot of us, though, preparing fresh, healthy meals from scratch can be a daunting, time-consuming prospect. But it doesn’t have to be.

The pandemic has upended the tourism industry and canceled vacation plans for millions of would-be world travelers. With roughly 6.4 million cases of COVID-19 in the U.S., the European Union and most of the rest of the world’s nations have banned travel from America.

The number of children heading into the kitchen to cook and bake was already on the upswing before the pandemic, helped along by the popularity of cookbooks for kids and TV shows like MasterChef Junior and Chopped Junior.
