Joining senior reporter Tim Carpenter to connect Kansas reflector listeners to challenges and opportunities of spreading the broadband wealth are Stanley Adams of the Kansas Department of Commerce and Daniel Friesen of IdeaTek, a company in Buehler, Kansas working to extend fiber in across the state.
