NightSide News Update. We kick off the program with four news stories and different guests on the stories we think you need to know about! For one of our segments this evening we’ll discuss how Boston is experiencing its windiest year on record!
Yikes! Boston Rats Spreading Disease… According to a recent study by Tufts University researchers at the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, rats in Boston are spreading a potentially deadly disease known as leptospirosis. The disease-causing bacteria can infect humans and animals with symptoms in humans ranging from mild and flu-like, such as an upset stomach, to more severe, in rare cases resulting in organ failure and death. We discuss how humans can contract the disease and treat it. We also want to hear about your experiences with rats in Boston!
Strikes Continue. Israel and Iran continue to trade strikes one week into their conflict. Will the U.S. get involved? Should they or not? To give diplomacy a chance, President Trump said he would put off deciding for two weeks whether to join Israel's air campaign against Iran. We will discuss a military analysis of Israel's Operation Rising Lion and whether Israel is biting off more than they can chew. Investigative journalist Tatsu Ikeda thinks so and will disagree with Dan tonight on NightSide!
20th Hour. NightSide’s last hour of the week we like to keep it light and fun. Join Dan at 11PM this evening where he’ll introduce the topic for you!
