The Reframers Podcast

An AI Apple a Day

This episode, Zach discusses Apple and their lineup of AI Integrated devices. Are these devices a threat to your privacy? What capabilities does Apple promote? Are these devices right for you? We are going to discuss the details so you can make the call for yourself!

With great POWER comes great (AI) responsibility

In this episode of The Reframers Podcast, we explore the critical issue of cybersecurity and its impact on our power grid. Zach delves into the potential consequences of cyberattacks, emphasizing how they can disrupt essential services such as hospitals, banks, and grocery stores. Unlike a typical power outage caused by a physical accident, a ransomware attack could have far-reaching implications for society. Join us as we discuss the pressing need for enhanced cybersecurity measures and highlight some of the positive developments and solutions emerging in this vital area.

Reframing Policing in America

This week, the Reframers take on a much-requested topic, the police! As usual, we give the origins and development of policing in America, followed by a very intense discussion into the problems that we face by police, as well as the risks that we take by defunding the police. We each offer some suggestions on ways to improve policing so we can all benefit. This episode has some great topics and is an open, intense conversation that you won't find anywhere else. 

Reframing Unions in America

In this episode of the Reframers, we celebrate our 1 year of podcasting by talking about unions in America. We break down the different types of unions that exist, discuss the difference between public and private sector unions, and what some of the pros and cons of joining a union might be. This is a great episode riddled with pop culture references and a ton of information about "collective bargaining." Thank you for listening!

Reframing Healthcare in America

We're talking about healthcare in America this week.

We focus on:
How do you get health insurance in the U.S?
Why is it so expensive?
Why do people disagree about how healthcare should work in the US? 

We're always striving to make any conversations on the Reframers a model for real-life conversations. We encourage reimagining disagreement, by "reframing" what it means to talk with someone who sees different media than you, grew up with a different background, or has different beliefs.
