When you think of Iowa, you probably picture corn, hogs, and other crops, but one farm is doing things a little differently. Today, we're learning about an Ames-born farmer who's changing how we view food in the West.

Snow has been a hot topic this month, and here's a fun fact you might not be aware of: "snow fleas" are a real phenomenon. If you're in a snowy region, you might encounter them. The good news is, they're not nearly as bothersome as regular fleas.

We’ve all heard of “life hacks” — those clever little tips and tricks designed to make our everyday lives a bit easier. Some of them are truly innovative and can be game-changers, helping us save time, money, or effort. But then there are those life hacks that are just downright questionable, often offering terrible advice that can lead to frustration or even injury

Though it's unsettling to consider. However, it's a thought that’s on the minds of many. Newsweek used maps created by historian and professor Alex Wellerstein to assess the potential effects of a Russian nuclear strike with their strongest missile.

Is there anything more loving than a pair of swans? Let's start off with a fun fact... Swans weren't always in Iowa. It is reported that as early as 1935 we started to move them into Iowa.

New laws are being seen in Iowa to keep kids safe online. Just recently the FBI took to X (formerly Twitter) To warn about this growing issue. While anyone can be a target, the FBI went into deeper detail on people who are targeted more often

You would think Iowa is low on the target list, but thanks to Council Bluffs, Iowa... we are in a top 10 target list. We are also looking at possible results for Des Moines.
