    A look at 'super agers' and the science behind longer, sharper lives
    Apr 17 2026
    For thousands of years, humans have tried to avoid growing old. Billions are spent every year on potions and procedures to make us look younger, feel younger and think younger. It's a hugely profitable, but ultimately fruitless hunt. But science has started to zero in on some proven techniques. Horizons moderator William Brangham explores that with Dr. Eric Topol and Dr. Sandra Weintraub. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast.

With energy prices on the rise, Horizons moderator William Brangham explores if Americans are open to a new way of powering our world with Bill McKibben and Jigar Shah.

    How worried should Americans be as AI threatens jobs?
    Apr 10 2026
    Americans are anxious about their jobs and whether artificial intelligence is coming for them. Some prominent voices call it catastrophic, others say it's hype. The data, so far, is somewhere in between and deeply contested. Geoff Bennett spoke with Josh Tyrangiel about his recent story for The Atlantic, "America Isn't Ready for What AI Will Do to Jobs."

I am really enjoying this series by PBS. I have found myself retelling some of the stories that I have heard here. They are really interesting.

Short and interesting.
