As you know we have a lot of guests who return multiple times. Sam Chang is back, but his first visit was YEARS ago. So let's do a refresher on what Midstory is, and you'll see why I refer to them as a modern NPR. Sam also wants to invite us out to their summer interns storytelling event coming up on July 26th.

Also, some AI discussion, which may be a first on the show, choosing higher ed or not, and local cuisine thoughts.

Gory NBA talk, one of Sam's passions though not his wife's, near the end of the episode.
