Podcasts about Shortage

For the past few years, the California legislature has passed a bevy of laws aimed at cutting red tape and spurring housing construction. Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, who represents the 14th district, has been at the forefront of that work. But, it's still really expensive to build. This year, she is chairing the newly established Select Committee on Housing and Construction Innovation. Guest: Buffy Wicks, CA Assemblymember, 14th District Immigration arrests in San Diego surged nearly 1500% in 2025. And many of the people who've been arrested have no history of criminal convictions.

Pittsburgh's lost more than half its population since our peak in 1950, and our city has more than 20,000 vacant homes. How do we also have a housing crisis? Public Source's Charlie Wolfson joins host Megan Harris to explain why so many houses are sitting empty, what (if anything) the city can do about it, and why our neighbors in Cleveland are doing a much better job turning abandoned houses into affordable homes.

Here's some good news/bad news as we begin this Friday. First the good: We made it to Friday. Now the bad or not-so-great news: you may be spending this weekend indoors. A big wave of Arctic air will send temperatures sliding downward beginning today. Then Sunday the second act moves in, a snowstorm bringing the potential for heavy snow, including here in Northeast Ohio, while in some places in the mid and deep South possible catastrophic ice accumulations are predicted. Complicating the situation: a regional salt shortage that may impact road clearing efforts. The story begins our discussion of the week's news on the “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable.” Power outages could result from the winter storm this weekend but even on calm weather days, Ohio is having a hard time keeping up with rising energy demand. One main driver of that increased demand: data centers. Columbus has become a key location for these centers, with one report concluding it's the second-largest hub in the Great Lakes region. But those centers are popping up everywhere including in Stark County for instance. If you're heading to Downtown anytime soon, you should know that the city has updated its rates for on-street parking and enforcement. The new digital, coinless metered system will give drivers the opportunity to park at a meter for up to four hours, but at increasing hourly rates and enforcement will be extended seven days a week—except in Ohio City where Sundays will not be enforced. Cleveland City Council members are not yet sold on the Bibb administrations "pedal to the metal" approach to shut down Burke Lakefront Airport to open the acreage to lakefront redevelopment. Mayor Justin Bibb has said he would like to see Burker shuttered by 2029. The future of Burke Lakefront will be the topic of our next “Sound of Ideas Community Tour” on March 4. Property owners in Ohio's largest counties are among those that will see their next property reappraisals delayed by a year. Sixteen counties including Franklin, Cuyahoga and Hamilton are pushing back the process. Cuyahoga will next appraise properties in 2031. Fewer Ohioans are enrolled in Affordable Care Act or Obamacare plans after additional subsidies to offset costs put into effect during the pandemic expired last month.

Klamath Community College plans a new early learning center designed to expand child care access while training the region's future educators.

The government is promising a complete overhaul of the water system, which it says will protect households from disrupted water supplies and bring in tougher oversight of water companies. The new water white paper, which paves the way for the Water Reform Bill, proposes the abolition of Ofwat to create a new regulator. It promises new reforms bringing councils, water companies, farmers, and developers together to deliver joined-up local plans to tackle river pollution, water resources and housing growth. We ask the Rivers Trust what it means for agriculture and the health of our rivers.All week we're talking about winter feed - from simple grass to complex proteins. Some farmers have already used up the forage which they grew to feed their animals over the winter. We visit a dairy farmer in Herefordshire who's had to buy in maize to feed his livestock and reduced his herd numbers because there's a shortage of fodder.Glyphosate is a commonly used but controversial weedkiller. Councils use it kill off weeds and it's used in regenerative farming to kill off cover crops, planted to help protect and nourish soils over the winters, before planting the main crop. In the USA courts have ruled that the chemicals in it are linked to cancer. In the UK, the government's reviewing whether it should still be allowed. We speak to farmers, scientists and campaigners about its future.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

UMKC researcher Dr. Cuthbert Simpkins is developing treatments for treating sepsis and blood loss. Once it becomes commercially available, it could decrease the need for blood transfusions.

Following the Trump administration's comments on home ownership, Brad Hunter explains that institutional investors own a negligible percentage of single-family rental homes in the U.S. and are not the cause of housing affordability issues. He attributes the problem to a significant undersupply of homes, estimated at 1.5 to 2 million units, asserting that building more homes, including "build-to-rent" properties, is the crucial solution. Hunter also addresses the disconnect between the perceived overbuilding by homebuilders and the actual supply shortage, pointing to the price ranges and locations where new homes are being constructed.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

The total "Care Economy," which includes both paid and unpaid care, is currently valued at roughly $6 trillion (nearly a quarter of U.S. GDP), and experts warn it is at risk of significant contraction due to these labor shortages. Today, we talk with Mary Helen Crowder, Home Health Aide Instructor, at the ACE Center at Hermitage, about what Henrico County Schools are doing to do their part to close the healthcare labor gap. We were visited by one of Mary's outstanding students and spoke with her about her experiences in the program.When professional home health aides are unavailable or unaffordable, the burden shifts to family members. As of late 2025, the estimated economic value of unpaid caregiving in the U.S. has climbed to over $1 trillion annually. A study in Health Affairs estimated the personal cost of unearned income for family caregivers at roughly $67 billion per year, a figure expected to double by 2050 as the "silver tsunami" of aging retirees intensifies.

On this week's Tipping Point conversation Paul and Wally reconvene after the New Year and discuss some of their own activities over the break. They then discuss some of the biggest news items over the last two weeks: Trump takes out Venezuela's Maduro. What does it mean for New Mexico? A federally-funded child care scandal has been exposed in Minnesota. With MLG pushing for "free" universal child care this scandal has significant implications for New Mexico:  Also, Tim Walz drops out of Minnesota Gov.'s race. The ABQ Journal has gotten into fundraising for investigative journalism. Zohran Mamdani makes explosive comments in his inaugural address. Meanwhile, the media compares his plans to policies already in place in NM. An article in ABQ Journal claims Farmington is "moving on" from oil and gas, but the reality is much different. NM legislative Democrats claim to have made steps toward solving NM's medical provider shortage. It's a minimal gain at best.

The conversation explores the impact of robots on mental health and their role in healthcare. Anthropologist Tanja Ahlin and Faces of digital health host Tjasa Zajc discuss the fascination with robots, the ambiguous identity of robots, their use in elder care, the challenges of integrating robots, the global perspective on robots, and the misconceptions and realities of robots. The conversation explores the impact of technology on different generations, the role of individual choices in technology use. The speakers also talk about concerns about children and technology, the role of parents, and the impact of technology on human development and creativity. It also emphasizes the importance of optimism and flexibility in adapting to technology.

Send us a textEver tried to judge a play from six feet off the ground with bodies flying past and zero replays? That's where referees live, and it's nothing like the view from the stands. We sit down with RefReps CEO Kyle Armstrong to explore how first‑person video, multi‑angle breakdowns, and short, high‑impact modules are rebuilding the referee pipeline and reshaping sports culture from the ground up.Kyle walks us through the origin story, the tech stack, and the classroom model that puts officiating into high schools and colleges. Students rotate between playing and reffing, then take those skills into local leagues for paid assignments. The result is a rare win‑win: more covered games, real income for teens, and a surge in life skills like conflict resolution, time management, and composure under pressure. We dig into the data too—confidence and intent to officiate hold above 80 percent across tens of thousands of learners—plus why brain science favors immersive reps over dry rule drills.We also look at the culture problem. RefReps installs “Do You Have What It Takes To Make The Call?” kiosks at a state championship, and crowds only get 62 percent accuracy with only two choices and a ticking clock. That humbling moment sparks empathy without lectures, and it's changing how coaches and parents behave on the sideline. From pricing and annual rule updates to VR experiments and partnerships with NFHS, this is a practical blueprint for strengthening youth sports, improving game management, and keeping officials in the game.If you care about fair play, better coaching, and safer sidelines, hit follow, share this with a friend who loves sports, and leave a review to help more people see the game through the eyes of the officials.Support the show

Healthcare does not lack workers; it lacks a work model capable of supporting them. Modern care assumed infinite elasticity from clinicians, but that model has reached its limit. What comes next is not incremental change; it is reconfiguration: team-based, patient-centered, digitally enabled, and economically aligned with value. When the work is redesigned, the workforce stabilizes. This necessary reconfiguration is not a trend; it is an inescapable reality.

The oil and gas industry is facing an unprecedented challenge: the electrical grid cannot keep pace with its soaring power demands. As drilling operations expand and electrification accelerates, grid capacity in key regions like the Permian Basin is being stretched to its limits. This imbalance threatens production timelines, operational reliability, and long-term growth. In this episode, we sit down with Caterpillar to explore why power demand is outstripping supply, the implications for oil and gas companies, and the strategies being deployed to bridge the gap. From leveraging natural gas for on-site generation to navigating competition with other industries, we'll uncover practical solutions and future outlooks. Join us as we discuss how companies can secure resilient power infrastructure and maintain momentum in an increasingly energy-constrained environment.To watch the video, click here.

DIY Snake Catching Classes Emerge Jeremy Zakis Due to a massive snake population boom and a forthcoming shortage of retiring professionals, a new industry offering DIY snake wrangling training has emerged in Australia. Courses, like one run by Dr. Christina Zenck in Queensland, teach people to safely handle dangerous species, such as brown snakes, using specialized snare poles. This training is crucial because killing protected snakes is illegal.

A large population of America is aging and there are not enough healthcare workers to take care of them. The worsening nurse shortage can be attributed to not only an aging workforce but overall burnout and an insufficient number of new nurses. More and more hospitals and organizations have put a focus on training up the next wave of healthcare workers, and are now meeting potential employees where they are - in high school classrooms. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Barb Clapp, CEO of Dwyer Workforce Development, a nonprofit that helps people get training in healthcare, who says by 2030 the shortage of nurses will dramatically effect all levels of healthcare.
