    Oct. 7 Three Years Later, Cornell & the Search for the Missing
    2026/10/09
    Three years after October 7, Gaza still isn't at peace, and the fighting has spread into a wider war with Iran. Scripps News Chief International Correspondent Jason Bellini has covered the story since the first days. He joins Jon Leiberman to talk about where things stand and where they could go next. That's just the start. Alex Miller has the latest on the ongoing situation at Cornell. A new Gallup report says only 31% of Americans think a college education is "very important," so we ask Stacey Cohen, Fordham adjunct professor, TEDx speaker and CEO of Co-Communications, whether college is still worth it. Food Babe founder Vani Hari was at the White House Make America Healthy summit with Vice President Vance and Secretary Kennedy, and she explains why even some MAHA loyalists aren't on board. Monica Caison, founder of the CUE Center for Missing Persons, explains how to keep a case from disappearing along with the person, and how you can help. Our panel also weighs in on the week's biggest stories. In our hidden headlines, Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley is facing online backlash after his property was marked as a public toilet on Google Maps, as scrutiny of the company's surveillance cameras grows. It writes itself. Everyone has an opinion and we want to hear yours. Text Jon at 202-968-2449, and subscribe so you stay caught up.

  • Big Tech's Thirst, AI's Hidden Job Risk & a Drunk Driver's Shocking Sentence

    Big Tech's Thirst, AI's Hidden Job Risk & a Drunk Driver's Shocking Sentence
    2026/10/02
    A Google data center used more than a billion gallons of water in a single year, more than the town next door. So who pays when Big Tech gets thirsty? News 5 Cleveland reporter Michelle Jarboe went through public records to find out how much water data centers really use, and how much communities can afford to give. Plus, forget the robot takeover. Marcus Mossberger, chief market strategy officer at LYTIQS, says the real risk of AI isn't losing your job. It's keeping it with fewer hours and no health insurance. Scripps News correspondent Maura Barrett also explains what to expect from your health care premiums as open enrollment nears, and it's not pretty. In October 2024, Mark Palumbo was driving home from work on I-95 in Westbrook, Connecticut, when a wrong-way drunk driver three times the legal limit hit him head-on. His wife, Amanda, joins Jon to share Mark's story, talk about a sentencing that left her family questioning what justice looks like, and explain her fight to make sure no other family goes through this. Stephanie Alston and Teddy "The Tax Man" go side by side on the week's biggest stories. In the Hidden Headlines, the dad whose son put $118,000 of Minecraft YouTube ads on a company credit card has lost his job, and he's now selling $100 AI-generated shirts to pay back the debt. And it's Fat Bear Week in Alaska, where reigning champ Chunk is defending his crown. Everyone has an opinion, and we want to hear yours. Text Jon at 202-968-2449.
