We’ll also get the latest on another environmental hazard with big health impacts in Connecticut – air pollution.

    Investigating the world of influencer kids

    Journalist and author Fortesa Latifi remembers the first time she stumbled upon child influencer content. She noticed a pattern of family influencers sharing incredibly intimate content of their children's firsts. "They were shaving their legs for the first time or getting potty trained, and it would get millions of views," she said. "And I just started thinking how strange it would be to grow up that way." The family influencer world has become a multi-million dollar industry. But some are starting to question the way this content is created, asking questions on how children are compensated for participating in these videos. Additionally, there is the question of consent. Today on Where We Live, we talk to Fortesa Latifi about her new book “Like, Follow, Subscribe: Influencer Kids and the Cost of a Childhood Online.” Where We Live is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, TuneIn, Listen Notes, or wherever you get your podcasts.

    E-books and what it means to own something in 2026

    We live in an age of convenience. From one device, millions of books can be accessed and stored. E-readers have become so ubiquitous that even if you don't personally own one, you probably know someone who does. But, have you ever stopped to think about how we get our e-books? And once you do get it, do you actually own it? Today, we will be digging through these questions as we explore e-books and the technology that supports them. Guests: Deborah Schander: Connecticut State Librarian Nicholas Engert: public librarian of over 20 years Lon Seidman: Connecticut resident and tech reporter at Lon.TV Connecticut Public's Megan Rodriguez-Hawkins contributed to this show.
