Next week, we’ll follow an inspiring and sobering story about disability, activism and family and join NOVA as it investigates an ancient mystery. Take a look at what’s coming up!

Ady Barkan's life was upended when he was diagnosed with ALS at age 32. After a chance encounter with a U.S. Senator on an airplane catapults him to fame, Ady and a motley crew of activists barnstorm across the country, igniting a movement for universal healthcare in a journey that transforms his belief in what is possible for his country and his family.

The ancient Maya built large complex cities with towering pyramids and temples that served as centers for a thriving civilization. Follow archaeologists exploring new evidence into the mystery of why after hundreds of years the cities were abandoned.

An investigation finds one apartment complex in Clayton County has filed more evictions against tenants than any other landlord across metro Atlanta - including during the federal government's pandemic eviction ban that was designed to keep people in their homes and stem the spread of COVID-19. Host Steve Fennessy talks to Washington Post reporter Yeganeh Torbati on this week's Georgia Today podcast.
