In the toxic waters of Sulphur Cave in Steamboat Springs, Colo. live blood-red worm blobs that have attracted international scientific interest. We don special breathing gear and go into the cave with a team of researchers. There, we collect worms and marvel at the unique crystals and cave formations that earned Sulphur Cave a designation as a National Natural Landmark in 2021. Then we learn how extremophiles like these worms are helping scientists search for new antibiotics, medicines and even models for robots that can explore uneven, dangerous terrain, like caves on other planets.

Lost Debate - Ep 131 | #TrendyTuesday: Community College Enrollment Decline, Gen Z Travel, Remote Jobs Disappearing, TikTok is Changing the Music Industry
Ravi, Rikki, and newcomer Micky jump into #TrendyTuesday, looking at four trends shaping our world. First, the trio talk about community college enrollment, which has been plummeting over the past decade. What’s behind the drop? And should we invest in reversing it? Then the group pivots to our podcast’s most talked about generation: GenZ. Zoomers are traveling in record numbers compared to their peer generations, and many are swiping their credit cards to do it. Are these travel experiences worth the debt? Then we answer a pressing question about the future of remote jobs, which were all the rage during the pandemic (for obvious reasons). But are they still viable for businesses? We figure out the answers (remotely). Finally, we take on the music industry, which has already gone through so many disruptions over the past two decades. Will TikTok be the music distributor’s final boss?
[05:14] - Community College Enrollment Decline
[16:20] - GenZ Travel
[25:35] - Remote Jobs Disappearing
[36:17] - TikTok is Changing the Music Industry

Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - Creating Spiritual Healing For Trauma Survivors
The Chicago-based nonprofit Surviving the Mic is led by, and serves, Black and brown femme survivors of sexual harm. After years of being volunteer-run, it’s now a nonprofit — allowing the group to reimagine how a healing art space can also function as a spiritual, church-like community. The group will begin hosting so-called Survivor’s Revivals on Sundays featuring poetry, storytelling and meditation. Reset learned more about the group and how its members are creating a space for survivors of sexual violence to heal. We spoke to executive directors Niiki Patin, Mojdeh Stoakley and Saunté Harden-Tate.
Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - How To Understand College Financial Aid
Financial aid letters aren’t federally regulated and can vary wildly from college to college. Most high school seniors across the country must decide where to go to college in the fall by May 1. Money can play a big role in which school they pick, and that can be challenging if you don’t have a good grasp of what your financial aid package offers. Reset learns more about how to understand those award letters from WBEZ higher education reporter Lisa Philip.
