    • The Pittsburgh Job No One Wants

      Five different people have led the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police over the past two and a half years — all under a single mayor — and it's still not clear when we're getting a new, permanent, top cop. What's going on with the police department, and what does this “revolving door” of local chiefs say about the city? We're with University of Pittsburgh law professor David Harris, who’s served on multiple committees to choose Pittsburgh’s police chief, to talk about the leaders from our recent past; recruitment and retention challenges facing us in the present; and how a new process passed by City Council could influence us well into the future.

        BUY THE BOOK!

        “The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness” by Jonathan Haidt, published by Penguin Press, is available wherever books are sold.


        We are only just beginning to understand the impact social media and smart devices are having on the mental and emotional well-being of teens and children around the world. In this episode of “The Oprah Podcast,” Oprah talks to Jonathan Haidt: a social psychologist, NYU professor and the New York Times bestselling author of "The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness." Jonathan will share why he believes the skyrocketing rates of anxiety, depression and addictive behaviors in teenagers can be directly linked to social media and excessive screen time. Oprah and Jonathan will also talk to teens - and their parents - from around the country about how their addiction to social media and smart devices is depriving them of their adolescence. Finally, Jonathan will offer tangible ideas for how parents and teens can work together to act now to prevent long-term and irreversible damage on teenagers’ still developing brains.

      • How Billions in Medical Cuts Would Hurt Pittsburgh

        Our region is facing billions of dollars in cuts to medical care and research by the Trump administration. The decisions made today will have far-reaching effects for decades to come — for the patients who rely on Medicaid, for the scientists researching medical treatments and cures, and for a city whose identity is built around eds and meds. We're joined by three local doctors to talk about the very real impacts if funding goes away and the work they're doing to try and prevent that from happening.

        Thank you to our guests:

        • Dr. Gabriel Cisneros, pediatrician with UPMC Children Community Pediatrics
        • Dr. Marian Jarlenski, professor of public health at the University of Pittsburgh

            Introducing LIZZO EXCLUSIVE: “Releasing The Weight Has Affected People” The Real Transformation Story She’s Never Shared Before from On Purpose with Jay Shetty.

            Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay Shetty

            How would your life change if your healing reshaped not just your body, but your entire way of being?

            What if the real change wasn’t about losing anything—but about gaining a deeper connection to yourself?

            In this deeply vulnerable episode, global superstar Lizzo sits down with Jay for an unfiltered conversation about loss, boundaries, transformation, and what it really feels like living in the spotlight. Lizzo shares how her loyalty to friends and her habit of seeing the good in everyone sometimes came at the cost of her own peace.

            She shares what happened when she finally stopped chasing relationships that no longer served her—and how distance gave her clarity on who was truly in her corner. Lizzo opens up about the pain of letting people go, the reality of feeling isolated, and the music that came out of her lowest moments.

            Lizzo dives deep into how the recent public scandal impacted her—and why she’s now more intentional than ever with her words, her energy, and her healing. Lizzo opens up about the responsibility of being a public figure, how her weight release journey evolved into a powerful personal transformation, and why she's chosen to let go of toxic energy.

            In this episode, you’ll learn:

            How to Let Go of One-Sided Relationships

            Why Some People Disappear When You Set Boundaries

            How to Honor Your Emotions Without Editing Them

            How Your Energy Shapes What You Attract

            How Love Without Drama Becomes a Flow State

            What It Means to Grow Apart Without Guilt

            Why Intentional Healing Starts With Self-Awareness

            Lizzo’s transformation is a reminder that you can still believe in people—and protect yourself. You can evolve—and still be soft. And you can face the hardest season of your life—and still come back to love.

            With Love and Gratitude,

            Jay Shetty

          • Why are Potholes So Bad in Pittsburgh?

            Potholes are a plague this time of year in Pittsburgh, but what does it take to fill them? How many get patched, and what can regular people do to speed the process along? We’re taking all your nebby questions to Bill Crean, deputy director for the city’s Department of Public Works – including the worst neighborhoods and weirdest requests he’s gotten in his 40ish years on the job!

            Call 311 to report a pothole to the city, or use their mobile app. For the county, call 412-350-INFO (4636) or visit CallCenter.AlleghenyCounty.us. If you need to report a hole in a state-owned road, use PennDOT’s Customer Care Center or call 1-800-FIX-ROAD.

            And if you don’t know who owns your road, both the City of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County have maps to help you out.

                America’s first Carnegie library is nearing the end of a $21 million renovation, and we got to neb nose all over the 45,000-square-foot space. Hear all about the history of the Braddock Carnegie Library, plus what they’ve got in store for their own opening day in May. Plus, we’re catching you up on big stories from the week: for the first time in a century, city voters won’t have any choices on their primary ballots for City Council; the trial began to determine who’s responsible for paying settlement money after the 2023 Norfolk Southern train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio; Nippon Steel has upped its offer to buy U.S. Steel, while an activist investor tries to oust the U.S. Steel board and CEO; local health and safety NIOSH workers have been hit by federal layoffs; Steelers legend Cam Heyward laughs off an offer to hang out with QB Aaron Rodgers; Homer City is turning an old coal plant into a natural gas-powered facility to help feed the local power grid; and with the return of street-sweeping season comes new AI tools to issue tickets to anyone who doesn’t get their car out of the way.
