Today’s show teaches listeners about how the U.S. Congress wants to require automakers to include AM radio in the vehicles they sell to facilitate an emergency broadcast network.

Hosts Daphne and Fred share their analysis of the article "Emergency Alerts & the U.S. Congress: The Big Disconnect" from the Curt Robbins & Associates Technical Writing Agency that was published on September 19, 2024.

An excerpt from the article: "I'm a proud American. I love this country. But I don't think dinosaur thinking is going to help this great nation maintain its leadership position in technology and commerce and best protect its citizens during emergency scenarios. And if we're going to consider AM radio for emergency alerts, CB radio should also rank as a contender. 'Breaker breaker, this is the Rubber Duck. The aliens have landed and your ass is grass. Over.'"
