River to River host Ben Kieffer talks with IPR's Natalie Krebs about how public health experts are concerned with how the settlement's broad language around the suggested uses for funding may lead to states diverting funds elsewhere.
Then, we listen back to Newsbuzz interviews from earlier this year, including the economic impact Caitlin Clark made while on the Hawkeye roster, a group of Des Moines North high school students who developed an app for a NASA contest, and an advancement in genetic research from Iowa State University.
We also listen back to a conversation about volunteer opportunities to monitor Iowa's waterways through the Izaak Walton League's Save Our Streams program.
