  A behind-the-scenes look at how digital surveillance is affecting the trucking way of life. 
   
   
   
  Long-haul truckers are the backbone of the American economy, transporting goods under grueling conditions and immense economic pressure. Truckers have long valued the independence of their work, sharing a strong occupational identity rooted in a tradition of autonomy. Yet these workers increasingly find themselves under many watchful eyes. Data Driven examines how digital surveillance is upending life and work on the open road, and raises crucial questions about the role of data collection in broader systems of social control. 
   
   
   
  Karen Levy takes listeners inside a world few ever see, painting a bracing portrait of one of the last great American frontiers. Federal regulations now require truckers to buy and install digital monitors that capture data about their locations and behaviors. Intended to address the pervasive problem of trucker fatigue by regulating the number of hours driven each day, these devices support additional surveillance by trucking firms and other companies. Traveling from industry trade shows to law offices and truck-stop bars, Levy reveals how these invasive technologies are reconfiguring industry relationships and providing new tools for managerial and legal control—and how truckers are challenging and resisting them.

  Existential Therapy - Finding...

  Existential therapy is a deeply philosophical approach to psychotherapy, grounded in the belief that life’s greatest challenge is navigating its inherent uncertainties while striving to create meaning. At its core, this approach invites individuals to confront the universal dilemmas of existence: freedom, responsibility, isolation, mortality, and the search for purpose. These existential concerns, though often unsettling, are also the catalysts for personal growth and transformation. 
  In a world increasingly defined by chaos, existential therapy offers a path to clarity. It does not seek to provide simple answers or quick solutions but instead fosters a deeper understanding of the self. The process requires embracing the discomfort of life’s unanswered questions and exploring the choices that define who we are. This journey of self-discovery helps clients uncover their authentic values and live in alignment with them, even in the face of life’s inevitable challenges. 
  The roots of existential therapy lie in the existentialist philosophy of thinkers such as Søren Kierkegaard and Friedrich Nietzsche, who emphasized individuality and the importance of living authentically. Later, philosophers like Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre explored the intricacies of existence, freedom, and the weight of human choice. These ideas profoundly influenced psychologists like Viktor Frankl, Rollo May, and Irvin Yalom, who brought existential philosophy into the realm of therapeutic practice.

  Fire and flood, train wreck and tornado—a look at the many disasters Chicago has endured over the years. 
   
   
    
  The story of Chicago is often likened to that of a phoenix rising out of the ashes of the Great Fire. Yet that infamous event was only part of the destruction that has shaped Chicago's identity. 
   
   
    
  This unique history explores the calamities that have befallen the Windy City, such as the 1954 killer water surge that swept in on a calm summer day; the 1967 tornado that ripped through rush hour traffic; the 1886 Haymarket Square riot that put Chicago on the anarchist map; and many other acts of nature and human folly. As you witness a fireproof theater burn, a flood rise up without rain, and one of the greatest maritime disasters occur within city limits, you'll gain a new appreciation for how this city has endured through unexpected tragedies and produced many unlikely heroes.
