Today The News Cycle focuses on how UC Davis continues to serve the public through agricultural programs while facing federal funding cuts. We have a conversation with Albert Liu from the UC Davis Office of Research. Then, Magdalena Knettle covers a community mulberry tasting event, and Adeleine Glenn reports on how funding changes are impacting graduate students.

Hosted and produced by Maggie Lubell. Packages by Magdalena Knettle and Adeleine Glenn. Music by Daniel Ruiz Jimenez.

Tonight we'll throw the tarp off of The Electric Compost Heap and spin a pretty good chunk of new tunes, including songs from Wreckless Eric, Girl Trouble, Guided by Voices, Hayes Carll, and Terry Allen, Jo Harvey Allen, and their whole family under the moniker Blood Sucking Maniacs! It just came out today on Paradise of Bachelors records, so it's as fresh as you can get it. Lots of other musical compostables, too, so take a listen!

In healthcare, we’re trained to move fast, to diagnose, treat, and fix. But what happens when we slow down just enough to ask a different question: What matters to you? In this episode, we reflect on how one simple question can transform not just clinical decisions, but relationships, trust, and meaning for patients, families, and clinicians. Christian von Plessen shares what happens when we stop asking “What’s the matter?” and start asking “What matters to you?”. Whether you're wearing a stethoscope or the hospital gown, this seemingly simple question is a reminder of why connection matters.
