  • What Are Data Centers — and Why Are They Suddenly Everywhere?

    What Are Data Centers — and Why Are They Suddenly Everywhere?
    Sep 17 2026
    What are data centers—and why are they suddenly being built everywhere? In this episode of The Brief: Insights From The Inside, Shabbos Kestenbaum sits down with Joe Honan, CEO of Singularity Compute, to explain the data-center boom powering artificial intelligence. Honan breaks down what data centers actually do, why AI requires so much compute power, how much electricity and water these facilities use, and why communities across America are debating whether data centers are worth the cost. The debate is getting bigger than local zoning fights. A House Science Committee probe is now examining foreign funding and potential influence in opposition to American AI and energy infrastructure, citing a report that found activist groups fighting U.S. data center development received more than $39 million from foreign donors. Honan argues this fight is about more than the environment—it’s about compute power, national security, and which country wins the AI race. The conversation covers hyperscale data centers, edge computing, liquid cooling, power grids, water recycling, noise concerns, the Nashville Zoo controversy, construction jobs, skilled trades, foreign-funded opposition, China, national security, orbital data centers, and whether Americans should be optimistic or worried about AI. ▶️ Watch more episodes of The Brief at:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://l.prageru.com/46yupO6 ⭐️ Enjoyed this episode?

  • What Really Happened on 9/11? With Gerald Posner | The Brief

    What Really Happened on 9/11? With Gerald Posner | The Brief
    Sep 11 2026
    What really happened on September 11th—and why do so many 9/11 conspiracy theories still persist 25 years later? In this episode of The Brief: Insights From The Inside, Shabbos Kestenbaum sits down with Gerald Posner, investigative journalist and author of Why America Slept: The Failure to Prevent 9/11, to revisit the September 11th terrorist attacks on their 25th anniversary. Posner explains the official account of 9/11, the intelligence failures between the CIA and FBI, the missed warnings before the attack, and why he believes the evidence points to incompetence—not an inside job. He also responds to some of the most common 9/11 conspiracy theories, including “let it happen on purpose,” Donald Rumsfeld’s $2.3 trillion Pentagon statement, the “Dancing Israelis,” Larry Silverstein and “pull it,” World Trade Center 7, “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams,” the Pentagon missile theory, Flight 93, and unanswered questions about Saudi knowledge before the attack. ▶️ Watch more episodes of The Brief at:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://l.prageru.com/46yupO6 ⭐️ Enjoyed this episode?

    From Lindsay Clancy to Planned Parenthood: Why More Women Are Celebrating Killing Children | The Brief
    Aug 29 2026
    The Lindsay Clancy trial ends with the prosecution resting its case—and hundreds of women still showing up in pink to support the mother who admitted killing her three children. How did we get here—and what does that say about abortion, motherhood, mental health, and American culture? In this episode of The Brief: Insights From The Inside, Shabbos Kestenbaum sits down with Lydia Taylor Davis, Gen Z activist and spokesperson for Students for Life of America, to discuss the Lindsay Clancy trial, postpartum psychosis, abortion culture, chemical abortion pills, Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, and the growing divide among young Americans over the pro-life and pro-choice movements.
