    Camilla Rees & Scott McCollough, Esq Say Cell Towers Are Costing You More Than Just Property Value

    “Enough is enough.” That’s the rallying cry of more than 100 health advocacy groups uniting under the banner of 704 No More™ — a coalition determined to restore local governments’ rights over the placement of cell towers and antennas. Why? Because in 1996, Congress quietly passed Section 704 of the Telecom Act, which stripped local communities of the ability to fight these towers on health or environmental grounds. Nearly three decades later, wireless infrastructure has multiplied, exposures have intensified, and communities remain powerless. In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, host R Blank sits down with longtime health advocate Camilla Rees and telecom attorney Scott McCollough, Esq., to uncover: How industry lobbying created Section 704—and why it still protects profits over people The science regulators ignore: decades of Navy, NASA, NIH, and EPA studies showing EMFs disrupt DNA, immunity, and ecosystems Why you can’t sue for property loss or illness when a tower goes up near your home The safer alternative: how fiber-to-the-home could cut EMF exposure by hundreds of times while keeping fast connectivity Why the FCC is one of the most captured agencies in Washington—and what it means for your health This episode dives deep into health, rights, and the hidden history of U.S. telecom policy. If you care about your family, your property, or your community, you don’t want to miss it.

    David Woodward Says It’s Time to Put Your Phone in a Box—Literally

    Are you addicted to your phone—or just trained to be? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we dive into the clever world of physical tools for digital wellness with David Woodward, co-founder of Mindsight. Once a pet product entrepreneur (yes, he made the squeaky toy your dog loved... and you barely tolerated), David now designs devices that help people unplug, refocus, and live more intentionally. His flagship product? A timed phone lockbox. It sounds extreme, but it’s changing lives—from breaking scrolling habits to curbing smoking, overspending, and late-night doomscrolling. Here’s what we explore: How a literal box is beating screen addiction when apps can’t Why fortress mode (30 days, no override) is digital rehab in a box Wild user stories—like casino-goers locking up their winnings The psychology of self-imposed tech boundaries The evolution of the “Breathing Buddha,” a screen-free meditation device Why the future of digital wellness might be more analog than you think If you’ve ever said, “I just want to use my phone less,” but couldn’t quite follow through—this one’s for you. Ready to reclaim your time, attention, and sleep? Tune in to this powerful conversation—and if it resonates, share it with a fellow phone addict.

    Elon Musk’s Pentagon Deal: Grok, AI, and the Future of U.S. Security

    The Pentagon just signed a contract worth up to $200 million with Elon Musk’s xAI, bringing Grok—yes, the same chatbot known for snappy one-liners—into the heart of U.S. defense operations. It’s called “Grok for Government,” and the pitch is bold: AI that can process oceans of security data, write official reports, and accelerate decision-making at the highest levels. But here’s the twist. Days after the deal, Grok made headlines for producing offensive and harmful outputs, sparking outrage and raising one very big question: should a machine this unpredictable really be trusted to shape government decisions? In this episode, we dive deep into the promises and perils of putting generative AI in charge of security. We’ll unpack: The speed factor: how Grok could transform intelligence analysis by condensing tens of thousands of reports into actionable insights in seconds. The transparency crisis: what happens when citizens can’t challenge AI-driven government decisions because no one knows how the algorithm made them. Accountability dilemmas: when an AI makes a bad call, who takes the blame—the agency or the developer, or no one at all? Bias and reliability: why generative AI’s “fluent but unreliable” outputs are especially risky in national security contexts. The psychological layer: how trust, anxiety, and public confidence are shaken when people learn machines, not humans, are influencing authority. The philosophical question: should technology ever be trusted with life-and-death decisions without deep human oversight? This isn’t just about the Pentagon. It’s about how AI is colliding with ethics, digital wellness, and our collective sense of trust in technology. It’s about whether faster, smarter government also means safer, fairer government—or whether we’re handing over too much power, too soon. AI promises speed. But speed without fairness is dangerous. Intelligence without accountability is hollow. And efficiency without ethics can erode democracy itself. Tune in for a conversation that connects AI, health, and the future of tech-life balance in ways you won’t hear anywhere else. Subscribe to The Healthier Tech Podcast and join the dialogue on how we can live better, safer, and more intentional lives in a digital-first world.

    Recommending You—or Rewriting You? The AI Browser Assistant Dilemma

    What if every hesitation, every curiosity, and every secret you typed into your browser was quietly feeding an AI assistant that doesn’t just help you—it shapes you? In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we dive into the AI privacy dilemma—a debate at the crossroads of digital wellness, surveillance, and convenience. Browser assistants are getting frighteningly good at their jobs: Auto-filling forms, translating languages, blocking threats, and even shopping for you. Predicting your habits and moods by analyzing every click, scroll, and pause. Collecting data so intimate it makes “private mode” feel like a bad joke. Sounds helpful—until you realize convenience has a price. At what point does assistance tip into intrusion? Do these AI tools make life easier, or are we just trading privacy for a digital babysitter? And when the machine knows you better than your own family, who’s really in control? We’ll break down: Why personalization always demands exposure. How “incognito mode” is anything but private. The illusion of control when you click “allow.” The future of browser assistants: ethical AI, on-device processing, and whether it’s enough. This isn’t just about tech—it’s about what it means to stay private, human, and free in a world where your browser has stopped being neutral. If you’ve ever wondered where the line between help and surveillance is drawn, this episode will make you rethink how you browse. Subscribe now and tune in—you won’t want to miss this one.
