The world is being disrupted over and over again, and the risks previously categorized as “unknown unknowns” have become commonplace. Everywhere we turn, Mount VUCA is in various stages of volcanic eruption. Join IQ4U’s Dr. Tamara Schwartz and her invited guests in this new podcast exploring the intersection of globalization, technology, business, ethics, and social change as we learn to live with Weapons of Mass Disruption.

Although there are content restrictions, such as limited chat functionality, voice communications, and friend requests, many children bypass these protections, not understanding why they are in place. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz talks with Nevin Ferry, a cybersecurity management student at the York College of PA, about how radical ideologies are being spread through gaming platforms.
