KNX In Depth: Can the FAA fix its computer problems after today's ground stoppage?--Today's cannabis might be too strong for older people--Why are lottery jackpots so big now?--The inner workings of Wordle

from Rising from the Ashes

Another mess at airports but this time there's no airline to blame. An FAA computer system failure led to a temporary ground stoppage of planes across the country. This is the first time since 9/11 that a national ground stoppage was ordered. We go In Depth into why this happened and whether it could happen again soon. Grandma and grandpa are finding out the hard way that pot isn't what it used to be. We explain. The Golden Globes make a return. But maybe it wasn't so triumphant. The next winner of the Mega Millions prize will probably take home the fourth largest jackpot in U-S history. This comes just a couple of months after the largest lottery jackpot ever here. We go In Depth into why we're seeing such massive jackpots now and if you really have a good chance at winning. Wordle is as popular as ever. It might get even harder soon. We talk to the person in charge of the game.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
