Soccer, or association football, originated in 19th-century England as a standardized version of various traditional ball games and quickly evolved into the world's most popular sport, governed globally by FIFA since 1904. But a lot has changed since the 19th century. This beautiful game is going digital. From AI-powered scouting tools to VAR’s controversial calls, technology is changing how the sport is played, coached, and consumed. Wearables track every sprint and heartbeat, while predictive analytics shape training regimens and game-day strategies. But as data and machines take a bigger role on and off the pitch, some are asking—what are we gaining, and what might we be losing? On this episode of WMD Dr. Tamara Schwartz welcome YCP Business Analytics major Caleb Morris, to explore how technology is disrupting soccer at every level, and whether the soul of the sport can keep pace with the code that’s now running it.…
Sports will never be the same. Algorithms are analyzing plays, wearables are tracking every movement, and fans are stepping into virtual stadiums from their living rooms. But as technology takes the field, it’s not just enhancing performance—it’s disrupting the very essence of the game. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz hands off the microphone to her YCP students, Cybersecurity Management major Devon Franz and Business Analytics major Toby Young who explore how data, AI, and immersive tech are rewriting the rules of sports, reshaping what it means to train, compete, and even be a fan—asking, is this evolution making the game better, or just less human?…
In 1994, a barrier that had grounded generations of women finally lifted. Secretary of Defense Les Aspin formally opened combat aviation roles to female service members—a milestone born from years of determined advocacy and shifting military needs. Despite cultural resistance, these Gen X women demonstrated the personal courage to not just earn wings—but to fly into combat zones where no American woman had gone before. Yet even today, the legacy of their achievements faces challenges—not from enemy forces, but from a quieter, bureaucratic elimination. In recent months, tens of thousands of pages, images, and stories celebrating military ‘firsts’—including those by female aviators—have been scrubbed from public military archives under new DEI rollbacks. On this episode of WMD Dr. Tamara Schwartz welcomes her former cadet training officer, Colonel “Buff” Burkel, USAF (retired). They will trace the arc from the 1994 breakthrough to now: from pilots’ unforgettable missions to modern-day efforts that risk losing their stories, asking the question: when history itself becomes contested territory, who decides which achievements endure—and which vanish?”…
AI is accelerating faster than the operational environment can adapt. From autonomous systems to decision-making algorithms, the speed of innovation is outpacing policy—and ethics. In this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz and YCP cybersecurity management student Bryce Durham confront some of the hard questions: When is it appropriate to take the human out of the decision cycle? Can legacy military systems be integrated with AI? And the ultimate dilemma—should a machine ever be allowed to kill without a human in the loop? As AI reshapes everything from transportation networks to modern warfare, we explore what’s gained, what’s lost, and what might never be recoverable.…
As the world becomes increasingly defined by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), quantum technology offers powerful capabilities, but not without strife and concern. From its role in optimizing supply chains to revolutionizing healthcare, this episode explores where quantum computing stands today and where it may take us next. Dr. Schwartz is joined by YCP Business Analytics major, Alyssa Russell to unpack the fundamentals of quantum computing and its growing impact across key industries.…
When ChatGPT came on the scene a few years ago, educators at all levels were not sure what it means to include AI as part of the classroom experience. Some sought to exclude it from the classroom, while others sought ways to include education related to the applied use of AI tools. Three years later, the education sector still finds itself trying to figure out what it means to have AI as another tool to expand upon students’ learning opportunities, while managing the problematic uses. In this episode, Dr. Tamara Schwartz speaks with cybersecurity management student, Slater Brewer to explore both the positive and negative ethical uses of AI in the education sector.…
In a world where artificial intelligence is evolving faster than we can document or teach, staying current has become a moving target. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz talks with her colleague Dr. James Norrie, a Professor of Cybersecurity, Law & Strategy at the York College of PA, and the Founder and CEO of CyberconIQ, a human-centered cybersecurity company about the challenge of writing and educating in real time, when the facts may already be outdated by the time the ink dries and the lecture ends.…
The movie Contact , starring Jodie Foster, features a memorable moment. While speaking with a group of students, Foster’s character—an astronomer searching for signs of extraterrestrial life—gazes up at the sky and says, “If it’s just us, it seems like an awful waste of space.” On this episode of WMD , we’re looking up—way up—into a mystery that has shifted from fringe theory to front-page news: Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena—what most of us once called UFOs. What happens when pilots, scientists, and even governments begin to acknowledge that we don’t always know what’s in our skies… or under our oceans? This week, Dr. Tamara Schwartz hands off the microphone to the YCP Tech Insight Club and their special guest, Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet, United States Navy (Ret), who visited York College on March 21, 2025. RADM Gallaudet shared accounts of unexplained encounters witnessed over the years and called for federal policy reform, as the national conversation evolves from conspiracy theory to serious inquiry.…
Video game environments like Roblox and Minecraft attract children as young as age 9. 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.…
In an age of rapid technological change, AI-generated content is reshaping communication, decision-making, and even the way we think. But with this power comes complexity—how do we craft prompts that cut through noise, avoid bias, and drive meaningful outcomes? And how does disruption, from shifting industries to information warfare, challenge the way we use and trust AI? On this episode of WMD Dr. Tamara Schwartzwill be talking with Lisa Flynn, a human systems engineer and a doctoral researcher at University of Oulu in Finland to explore the art and impact of prompt engineering in a world defined by uncertainty.…
The podcast where we explore the impact of technology, social change, and disruption. The VUCA – volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity - just keeps on coming! Season 4 begins February 19th!
Management consultant and educator Peter Drucker has many famous quotes attributed to him, but one of his most memorable by far is “culture eats strategy for breakfast, operational excellence for lunch, and everything else for dinner.” Nowhere is this more apparent than in cybersecurity. A recent survey showed that 30% of your employees think cybersecurity is not their responsibility – 30%! In other words, the perspective that “cybersecurity is an IT problem to solve” persists, despite evidence to the contrary. On this episode of WMD, I will be talking with Amy Omrod, CEO of Cygence, an Australia-based cybersecurity consulting firm providing mission-focused and intelligence-led services to enable clients to reduce risk, and deliver optimal outcomes. Amy explains the importance of building a security first culture to generate sustainable organizational change.…
Take a look around. Work is no longer a place you go, but something you engage in. Industries have become cyborg – a physical, human, digital hybrid. This creates intense pressure to maintain the IT infrastructure that is the lifeblood of the cyborg organization. Cybersecurity personnel take on that responsibility, which requires 24/7/365 vigilance. Is it any wonder that cybersecurity people are experiencing burn out at unprecedented levels? Not only is the job demanding, but more and more, cybersecurity personnel are becoming personally liable when security fails. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz welcomes back Paul Davis, Field CISO from JFrog to discuss building resilience in your cybersecurity workforce.…
The 2017 NotPetya cyberattack exploited the software supply chain when malware was embedded in a routine update of the M.E. Docs software, an accounting software similar to Quicken, which is widely used in Ukraine. This past summer, Crowdstrikecustomers experienced problems when there was an error in a line of code. Although this was not a cyberattack, the impact of this error was widely felt, and both Crowdstrike and IT shops worked hard to provide a remedy as quickly as possible. These events highlight the importance of the software supply chain. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz talks with Paul Davis, Field CISO from JFrog, a software supply chain platform that brings together DevOps, DevSecOps, and MLOps to provide end-to-end visibility, security, and control for automating delivery of trusted releases. Paul explains the complexity of software development and the challenges of an open source software development ecosystem, highlighting how a capability like JFrog can bring peace of mind.…

One of the most common expressions amongst cybersecurity practitioners is “there is no fix for stupid.” This statement is usually accompanied by a shake of the head, laughter, or maybe a shrug. Another version of this sentiment might be “show me something that is fool proof, and I’ll find you a bigger fool.” Inherent in these comments is a sense of derision for the person who was exploited by the latest cyber threat vector. But the members of your organization are also your customers, and these kinds of statements demonstrate a lack of respect for the customer. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz is joined by Ken Fanger, from On Technology Partners. Ken has a message to share: deriding the customer would not win a lot of support in most parts of an organization, so why is it acceptable in the world of IT?…
Manufacturing has traditionally been subtractive. We start with a piece of material, and we subtract material by cutting it away until we have the object we are trying to create. 3D printing, also referred to as additive manufacturing, works in reverse. We begin with a digital representation of an object, and a machine adds filament material to the object one tiny layer at a time until we have created something physical from its digital design. On this episode of WMD, York College of Pennsylvania cybersecurity management student, Conner Everett flips the microphone and interviews his guest, Dr. Tamara Schwartz as they discuss how 3D printing is changing manufacturing and the potential disruptions to the manufacturing industry and supply chains.…
At some point in time we have all dreamed of being someone else or somewhere else. When you read a fantasy book that felt so real, you wished you could go to that place. Or maybe you were watching a professional sporting event and imagined that it was you who was making that slam dunk, homerun, impossible goal, or touchdown. That time at your first job when you dropped something, the entire room looked at you, and you just wished the floor would open up so you could be anywhere else. Video games give us the opportunity to escape reality, and with the growth of extended reality technologies, escaping our reality can feel ever more real. On this episode of WMD, two of Dr. Schwartz’s students from the York College of Pennsylvania, Sebastian Suriel-Diaz and Chase Shelton discuss how virtual, augmented, and extended reality are changing the video game experience.…
We live in an age of surveillance, but few of us pay attention to exactly how closely we are being tracked. Devices like the Ring doorbell, the Apple Watch, Google’s search engine, and the smartphone in your pocket provide location, imagery, voice, interest, and health data. Social media provides the same. Few people, if anyone, read the user agreements in detail to find out exactly how that user data is being monetized by the companies that build those devices and software. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz hands off the microphone to three cybersecurity management students here at the York College of Pennsylvania: Nevin Ferry, Jesse Bitzer, and Brooks Almond, as they head to campus to ask their fellow students about their privacy and whether or not they understand what’s in the user agreements for the social media apps they use.…

Generative AI is already making an impact on resumes, and there are new applications of AI in the HR process being introduced all the time. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Schwartz talks with Cameron Gutshall, a business analytics student at the York College of Pennsylvania, to explore how AI is changing the experience of hunting for internships and jobs.…
What is real? This is the question posed to the Velveteen Rabbit by the Skin Horse. He goes on to explain that “Real isn’t how you are made. You become.” The rise of Augmented and Virtual Reality technologies makes this question even more complicated. Is something “real” when we experience it in cyberspace? On this episode of WMD, Dr. Schwartz talks with cybersecurity management student Carlos Gomez about how virtual reality and augmented reality technologies are changing our perceptions of what is real.…
Coaching in sport is extremely important to development both as an athlete and as a whole person. The tools a coach has at their disposal is a factor in how they can help their athletes prepare, train, reflect, and recover. Emerging technologies are creating new ways to assist in the player – coach relationship. In particular, IoT offers numerous opportunities related to tracking athlete health and performance. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz welcomes York College of Pennsylvania Cybersecurity student Luke Ragusa to wrestle with the many potential applications of IoT in the sport of wrestling.…

This episode includes some explicit content and may not be suitable for young children.…
One of the best experiences that comes from being a professor is when a student takes the opportunity to share their personal story. Military veterans share a very special bond, as a veteran herself, Dr. Schwartz feels especially grateful for that connection when a student veteran shares their story. This is part one of a very special two-part episode of WMD, where one of those veterans, Mr. Jon Ritt, shares war stories from his multiple deployments to Southwest Asia. Jon is a business analytics major at the York College of Pennsylvania reinventing himself for a third career, and he uses his experiences to describe how technology is changing the battlefield. This episode includes some content that may not be suitable for young children.…
Historically, National Security has always involved the most cutting edge of technology. As the world moves back into a RealPolitik posture with nations competing for power of a global scale, how we go to war is changing again. The newest arms race is in the application of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics on the battlefield. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz talkswith cybersecurity students Jaylen Mills and Rae’Vaugn Fowler about how militaries, intelligence communities, and law enforcement are employing these emerging technologies.…
George Orwell imagined it in 1984 . Star Trek imagined it with the Borg, when they promised that we would all be assimilated. The Internet of Things, or IoT in industry jargon, is no longer the stuff of science fiction, but rather the stuff of science fact, and it is disrupting everything. On this episode of WMD, Dr. Tamara Schwartz hands off the microphone to York College of Pennsylvania cybersecurity management student Will Galasso, who interviews Ian Panulla, a software architect and CTO about how IoT is changing the way we experience the world.…
