True happiness is found when sins are forgiven and peace with God is restored.Guilt Is WretchedThe burden of unconfessed sin is heavy.

Margaret Fleck and David Forsyth are computer science professors at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). In this episode, we have the ultimate computer science power couple: Margaret Fleck and David Forsyth. Together, they bring a rare mix of academic brilliance, humor, and a knack for keeping students hooked—plus, they're married, which only adds to the chemistry. Margaret Fleck is all about practical teaching. With a background from MIT and Yale, she could easily go the high-theory route, but instead, she's focused on making learning accessible. Her courses are known for their clear structure, simple materials, and frequent small assignments to keep students engaged. She's developed and reworked some of UIUC's most essential computer science courses, like Artificial Intelligence (CS 440) and Discrete Structures (CS 173)—and she even wrote textbooks and created video lectures to help students nail down tough concepts. If you're ever struggling to understand a CS topic, Fleck's teaching style is like a breath of fresh air. Then there's David Forsyth—a big name in computer vision, who brings wizard-level knowledge to the table. Think of him as the Dumbledore of computer science, not just because he actually looks a bit like him (beard and all) but because he's a mentor who doesn't just find the best students—he shapes them into the best versions of themselves. Forsyth has published over 130 papers, co-authored the widely-used textbook Computer Vision: A Modern Approach, and even served as a leader for key conferences in the field. His latest research digs into machine learning, graphics, and making AI smarter in more human-like ways, and he's often training models on his own GPU, pouring the same energy into his work that he does into teaching. These two aren't just here to talk about computer science, though. They go deep into some unfiltered opinions on college life, like why the whole “passion” narrative might be overrated and why more students need to be rebels if they want to truly make the most out of their time at university. They also reveal their own college experiences: Forsyth shares how he made it through tricky subjects (last-minute cramming, anyone?), while Fleck talks about how she keeps students learning without all the usual academic pressure. You'll find out about how Fleck and Forsyth first met—a story that's both geeky and endearing, showing that love can definitely bloom in the halls of academia. Whether you're into AI, wondering about college life, or just want to know how two brilliant minds balance work, love, and pushing boundaries, this is one conversation you won't want to miss.

David Forsyth couldn’t image 30 years ago that his career in academia would involve standing in front of a moving driverless vehicle with a traffic cone on his head. However, this spring that’s what the South African born professor of computer science did as part his University of Illinois class on artificial intelligence. He talks about how the future of programming autonomous vehicles.
This episode is focused on venomous lizards. The first half is all about the desert specialist and ultra-efficient Gila Monster. With the latter portion covering possibly the most charismatic lizard still roaming the earth – the iconic Komodo Dragon. We explore how these lizards interact with their environments and discuss the existence of their venoms. At the end we have the usual Species of the Bi-week who also harbours a dangerous toxin.

On Changing Denver this month, we head northwest to Lakeside Amusement Park. For more than a century, Lakeside has been a popular destination for people of all ages, but only between May and September. What happens during the park's off-season? Where do the people of Lakeside go? And who are they? - Here's more information on David Forsyth's book, Denver's Lakeside Amusement Park: From the White City Beautiful to a Century of Fun. - Our theme song is "Minnow" by Felix Fast4ward. Elk Minister and Chimney Choir generously allowed us to use their music in this episode. "Into the Void of Emptiness" was the first single of Elk Minister's upcoming album, "There's a System of Control," which will be available through iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, CDBaby and other distributors, like Elk Minister’s website, bandcamp, and Soundcloud on January 13. The tracks "In this Light," "I Know the Way," and "In the Underworld" all appear on Chimney Choir's album "Boomtown". Their new album "(dream)" is available now. - Rebecca Aronauer is a fiction writer who organizes Making the Mountain, a quarterly event series featuring local artists at the Lighthouse Writers Workshop. - You can peruse crime data for Lakeside at the Colorado Bureau of Investigation's website. - Follow us on Twitter @ChangingDenver and sign up for our newsletter at www.changingdenver.com/about.
