## Resource

We’re headed to the video game aisle, where things could start looking a little scary for gamers, as equipment they love might soon be disappearing. An expert will explain why we can blame AI for it. After we check out video games, we’re also stopping by the toy aisle to get a stern warning about the viral squishy, sensory toys that are sending kids to the hospital. Featuring audio from WBEN News and Talk in Buffalo and the Dana & Parks Show out of Kansas City.
