  • You Really Can't Get Along with Only English (Global Connections)

    But What Other Languages Should we Learn.  The host for this show is Jay Fidell.  The guest is Lance Askildson.  


    Lance Askildson, Professor of Language and Linguistics at Chaminade University, helps us understand languages and linguistics in the world today, how they are coming together and how they are changing, and how it is becoming more important that we reach out to other cultures and learn languages other than English.  But what cultures and what languages should we study, and why, and how many of them.  For that, we have to anticipate geopolitical and demographic changes, and business and occupational requirements, now and going forward.  European languages, Asian languages, Middle Eastern languages, African languages?  The choices and the learning curves are challenging.

  • Post-Election Expectations and Energy (Perspectives on Energy)

    What Can we Expect Now with Energy Policy.  The host for this show is Guillermo Sabatier.  


    Now that the 2022 midterm elections are over (mostly), we can expect some changes given the modest power shift in the House and possibly the Senate. Additionally, we are seeing a slow creep towards middle right or altogether away from either party and registering as independents.  One likely outcome is the stalling of green or renewable policies once championed by the White House, but not as drastic as expected.  We have already seen examples of the results of the mismanaged push towards 100% renewables without any regard for reliability.  Europe, Australia and even some states in the US can show us how we might best apply a cautious approach.
