Heard Tell For Wednesday, July 24th, 2023
Twitter Gets X-ed Out, Tipping Debate w/guest Krista Kafer, Green Dreams vs Mining Machines, & More
Your Heard Tell Show for Wednesday, July 26th, 2023 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by discussing Elon Musk changing Twitter's branding from the well known bird to his long imagined "X", what it means, and is it going to work out to become the "everything app" he envisions it to be. We go to Alaska where the 8 year long legal fight over 210-miles of proposed road through protected federal land has the Biden Administration between a rock and a hard place of championing a green future, but needing to mine the rare earth minerals that are needed to fuel it. Our guest is Denver Post columnist Krista Kafer, who returns to Heard Tell to talk about her piece on the changing culture and economics of tipping. From the legendary Casa Bonita to just about every service sector now, how technology and the post-pandemic labor situation is converging around what and how to compensate service sector workers. We end on a good note with a story about something so common most folks take it for granted, but became a huge deal to some kids before back-to-school.
All that and more on this episode of Heard Tell.
