How you deal with a traffic ticket is much different depending on if you are a man or a woman. So says the ticket fighting service called Off The Record, an app where you upload your ticket and they will connect you with a local attorney to fight your ticket.

To answer that question and so much more is Karen Bailey-Chapma...

This episode my guest is Dr Sujay Kaushal, professor of Geology and Earth System Science at the Univers...

That is what Zach Shefska, CEO of CarEdge is working on. In this episode I speak with Zach about how they leverage AI to research and negotiate with dealerships, the f...
