Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
For people who have lived through traumatic events, remembering the experience can be a painful — and necessary — step to recovery. Now, new virtual reality technologies are being used to help people simulate their trauma and move past it. Join Kojo as we explore how virtual reality simulators are being used to help everyone from Iraq war veterans to people grappling with addiction.
