In our February episode, we discuss the mushrooming of data centers in the Midwest. The growth of artificial intelligence is driving demand for computational power and the construction of data centers across the United States. Yet these data centers require massive amounts of water and electricity, which has led to concerns among impacted communities. We speak with Professor Madhumita Dutta of the Ohio State University, along with local activists Katie Currid, and Rachel Gonzalez, to better understand their growth. In our Dollars and Sense Debrief, Chris Sturr interviews Stephen Barton about all things rent control, which will be on the ballot in Massachusetts in November 2026. Tune in. #rentcontrol #ai #datacenters *** Dollars and Sense Debrief with Chris Sturr and Stephen Barton - 1:50 minutes Feature interview with Professor Madhumita Dutta, along with local activists Katie Currid, and Rachel Gonzalez - 21:47 minutes
