  • Training in Energy and Other Industries (Perspectives on Energy)

    Industrial Workforce Development.  The host for this show is Guillermo Sabatier.  The guests are Jill James and Suzie Espling.  


    The energy and electric utility industries are facing a shortfall of engineers and other STEM professionals in the workforce. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, economic projections point to a need for approximately 1 million more STEM professionals than the U.S. will produce at the current rate by 2025. This is a critically important challenge, especially if we hope to remain competitive as a nation or group of nations in science and technology.  What is worrisome is that this also affects STEM-related roles not just in this industry, but across most others.

  • Squirreling Away Taxpayer Funds (Talking Tax)

    Why it's so Hard to Follow the Money.  The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and Tom Yamachika.  


    Most of the money in the state, and the place to which many (but not all) tax collections go, is the general fund.  The Hawaii Constitution explicitly mentions this fund in provisions that together require a balanced budget. There are also, however, numerous other funds, called special funds, revolving funds, and trust funds. In 2020, there were close to two thousand of them.  

    Money also can be and is routinely transferred between funds, sometimes by a special law, sometimes automatically.

  • 'The Changing World Order' (World of Books)

    Ray Dalio's Predictions Are Coming True.  The host for this show is Mihaela Stoops.  The guest is Carl Ackerman.  


    This is a discussion on Ray Dalio's book 'Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order', specifically the last part, where he 'predicts' the future of US and the world. High inflation, increased interest rates, a polarized society, a potential conflict in/over Taiwan between US and China are all 'signs' that the US is approaching its decline as a world power. Why is this the case and what should you do about it?

  • Federal Criminal Investigation of Trump (American Issues Take One)

    Grand Jury Looking at Trump's Criminality.  The hosts for this show are Tim Apicella and Jay Fidell.  The guest is Winston Welch.  


    Today is a first in presidential history.  We learned that The Department of Justice is conducting a criminal investigation of Trump's actions as it centers around the interference of the transfer of power to Joe Biden, and the events leading up the January 6 attack upon our Capital. The Washington Post broke the story which prompted Attorney General Merrick Garland to interview with NBC's Lester Holt. The AG restated his commitment that the DOJ would follow the evidence to anyone who broke the law in connection with Jan 6 insurrection and/or installment of fake electors. The panel explores this important breaking news.
