From breast cancer awareness to the rise in cancers among younger adults, early detection can mean the difference between life and death.

In this episode, Pap Corps Publicist Kay Renz joins Brian and Michael to discuss groundbreaking research happening at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Health System — including how artificial intelligence is helping speed mammogram analysis and may one day help revolutionize breast cancer screening and diagnosis.

Kay also shares her own health scare, the importance of self-advocacy, the $110M+ Pap Corps has raised for research, and how community support saves lives. Michael and Brian reflect on family journeys, support systems, and an aging Florida population that urgently needs better access to care.

A powerful reminder: ask questions, get screened, and don’t face health challenges alone.

Keeping Florida on the Move means tackling Florida’s toughest transportation questions. Can Tri-Rail survive after state budget cuts and fading federal aid? Former Executive Director Steve Abrams joins hosts Michael Williams and Brian Crowley to break down what it will take to keep 15,000 daily riders moving — from South Florida commuters to students and seniors who rely on Tri-Rail every day.

From Brightline expansion to driverless cars, Abrams explains how Tri-Rail’s challenges mirror Florida’s broader mass-transit struggle. The hosts explore why it matters statewide, how counties and Tallahassee can share the load, and why the next generation’s future depends on keeping Florida on the move.
