Show Notes

8:30am to 9am: Jennifer Wakeman, Executive Director of DRIVE, on the crazy progress they’re having with economic development, broadband, using existing sites and building new ones. DRIVE has become the most instrumental growth facilitator in PA—and it’s a new group. 9:06am to 9:30am: Matt Rousu, Ph.D., Professor of Economics, Dean of the Sigmund Weis School of Business, Susquehanna University, with his view on the talk about recession, the other economic drivers right now; inflation, supply chain, scarcity/shortages, worker shortage, chip shortage, and baby formula shortage. During open phones, we refuted PPL's claim they have enough generation and grid capacity, and a caller talked about the 'wacked out minds' who do school shootings, should be in Danville State Hospital.
