Back again to talk Tech, Health, and Politics. So much of health and tech crosses into the politics realm and it is important to pay attention to how they will affect us, and the ramifications that they can have on us locally, nationwide, and globally. TikTok, Microsoft, Zoom, Apple, and many other companies have taken different stances on privacy, data collection, and even if we don\\u2019t see it right away we may get caught in this web. China has made laws that can be broken on a global scale to try and control the narrative. ALL of this is a conversation that needs to be started and kept going. By the end we were ready for some Shower Thoughts!

TIL:

TIL that Elvis Presley recorded over 600 songs throughout his career and did not write a single one of them on his own.

TIL that the US $2 bill is still being produced in large numbers. The apparent scarcity of the bill is caused by collectors taking it out of circulation because they think that it is rarer than it actually is.

TIL perp walks (perpetrator walks) are illegal in France, as it is illegal to publish pictures of an identifiable person in handcuffs or police custody unless they have been convicted

TIL a Russian cat was used by prisoners to sneak drugs into their penal colony near Moscow. The cat allegedly had 5.79 grams of hashish & 1.56 grams of amphetamine under its collar. Defense/prosecution lawyers each wanted the cat to support their case but it escaped from its kennel before trial.
