About this episode

The episode discusses the intersection of technology and public health with IT experts, covering digital health, device safety, and the role of AI.

When we think of public health, we may not always consider the role that technology plays. Three of our IT experts, Sondra Burns, Nik Shipman, and DeAngela Watson join the podcast today to talk about protecting your digital health, keeping devices safe at home, and how AI factors in to public health. We even get a quick visit from our own unique AI chatbot! Later we discuss grilling, tailgating, and what old technology we still stand by today.
