Medical misinformation is causing more and more parents to not only refuse vaccines, but also routine preventative care. A new study published by the American Medical Association shows the number of parents refusing routine Vitamin K shots for their newborns doubled between 2017 and 2024. 5.2% now decline the shots due to possible risks. Maria Shilaos turned to a board-certified pediatrician for some answers, Dr. Jonathan Williams with Ogden Clinic. Read more at KSL.com.

Much of Utah is seeing record-breaking heat right now and will continue to do so for at least another week. While the temperatures themselves might not be the hottest we've ever seen, temperatures this high this early are pretty extreme. In fact, the warm weather has forced several ski resorts to end the season early and has local water districts and municipalities considering water restrictions. In this Deep Drive, Maria Shilaos discusses this historic heatwave with meteorologists and water managers. She also hears from Governor Spencer Cox as he outlines his thoughts on the lackluster winter and the warm weather right now. The conversation finishes up with a look at how you can conserve water before restrictions go into full force. Guests: Devan Mascuilli, KSL Meteorologist Governor Spencer Cox Darren Hess, Assistant General Manager for Weber Basin Water Conservancy District Kelly Good, Director of Community Engagement at Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District

A major development could take place in a high profile, death penalty case in Utah tomorrow, and the odds are good we won't know exactly what's happening. It's a story that may sound familiar to KSL listeners and fans of the Cold podcast: the murder of Joyce Yost by Doug Lovell. It's a lot to unpack, though, so Cold podcast host Dave Cawley explains the situation to KSL NewsRadio's Becky Bruce. He provides context on the whole situation, along with the background on the murder, kidnapping and rape of Yost more than 40 years ago.

Utah's housing shortage was part of the affordability crisis discussed during the 2026 Legislative General Session that just wrapped. It's been a problem for several years -- many Utahns getting priced out of their neighborhoods... unable to secure long-term permanent housing. The governor says he's committed to building 35,000 starter homes, but many have said we're far behind that goal. On this Deep Dive, guest host Heather Peterson discusses Utah's housing crisis and how lawmakers tried to make things better during the session. She's joined by Steve Waldip, Senior Advisor to Governor Cox for Housing Strategy and Turner Bitton, Founder and Executive Director at Wasatch Advocates for Livable Communities.
