Midwestern comedian Charlie Berens joins U.P. residents to oppose A.I. data centers
MARQUETTE, Mich. (WBUP / WJMN) — Communities across the Upper Peninsula are rallying against the expansion of artificial intelligence data centers, drawing support from local residents and a well-known Midwestern comedy star. Dozens gathered at the Ore Dock Brewing Company in Marquette on Monday night for a panel discussion hosted by the Northern Michigan Alliance for Responsible Development. The event, one of four held across northern Michigan, aimed to educate the public on how to protect their communities from potential infrastructure strain and environmental impacts. Comedian Charlie Berens attended the Marquette event to lend his platform to the cause. He cautioned attendees about the narrative pushed by developers. "A lot of the information comes from big tech, and a lot of that information is skewed. So it's good to balance it out," said Berens. "And really the bottom line is for, you know, you need to decide for the UP not for big tech to decide for the UP." A major point of concern among organizers is the massive energy and water consumption required to run hyperscale A.I. facilities. Berens said these new developments operate very differently from traditional cloud storage centers. "Comparing a traditional data set to an AI

Marquette’s Chanteymen channel catharsis on “Some for the Hard Times”
Marking their first physical release in roughly fifteen years, Marquette band Chanteymen’s new three-track EP, "Some for the Hard Times," captures a distinct shift toward a heavier, more emotionally charged sound. Born out of years of personal and creative evolution (including a complete pivot to electric instrumentation following a 2011 house fire), the project trades the acoustic minimalism of their early work for rich sonic textures, driving guitars, and full-throated group vocals. Rather than dwelling in despair, the album's title reflects a cathartic outlet for processing difficult times, offering a raw, mature perspective on navigating life's turbulence.
