On this powerful episode of The Morning Experience, we open with a thought-provoking monologue unpacking the rise of massive data centers quietly reshaping rural communities. Who benefits? Who pays the energy cost? And why are billion-dollar deals happening with so little public input? We break down the economic promises, environmental impact, and what it means when technology expands faster than transparency. Then in the Flavor Forecast, we take a journey back in time—exploring the role food played during the Civil Rights Era. From church kitchens to organizing meetings, we highlight how meals weren’t just nourishment—they were strategy, fellowship, resistance, and community building. It’s history, culture, and connection served on one plate. Smart conversation. Cultural depth. And a reminder that even technology and food tell stories about power.
