How old ARE Romeo and Juliet? And Antony and Cleopatra?? And Rosalind and Orlando??? And King Lear????In this episode, we discuss not only how old the characters in the canon are (or in many cases, appear to be), but also, whether or not it makes a difference to the story.

What if I told you that the women whose images plaster stadium walls, who bring in millions for the NFL, were making less per hour than a Starbucks barista? The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders Netflix phenomenon exposed something we all suspected but didn't want to say out loud—that our obsession with perfection comes at a brutal cost. Meanwhile, our beloved Sex and the City characters returned in And Just Like That, only to reveal how privilege and aging intersect in ways that make us cringe harder than a bad first date.In today's episode, we're diving deep into both cultural moments that had us all talking. From Kelly Finglass and Judy Trammell's leadership styles to the body image pressures that come with those iconic uniforms, we're unpacking what these shows really tell us about conformity, empowerment, and the price of looking perfect. Plus, I'm serving up some serious tea about ageism in pop culture and why Carrie Bradshaw's character development makes me want to throw my Manolos at the TV.In this episode, we cover:How the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders' 400% pay raise happened and why it still might not be enoughThe real story behind those uniforms and what they reveal about body image standardsWhy Kelly Finglass and Judy Trammell's leadership approach changed between seasonsHow Armani's alopecia journey became a powerful moment for diversity and representationThe brutal truth about conformity versus standing out in high-pressure environmentsWhy And Just Like That feels so tone-deaf compared to the original Sex and the CityHow fashion and privilege intersect in ways that make beloved characters insufferableThe ageism double standard that keeps women invisible after 50This episode got me thinking about how we navigate the tension between fitting in and standing out, whether we're 25 or 55. Are we moving forward as a society, or are we just dressing up the same old standards in prettier packages?Ready to start your own conversation about culture, authenticity, and what it means to reinvent yourself?

Think about that. Think about how many millions of dollars each football player gets paid to sign on with the Dallas Cowboys, yet the cheerleaders themselves... their images, their movements. It is the cheerleaders. Like they are their own brand.""There's so much of like, you will get kicked off, right? Like you will, you must conform to a certain standard of pleasingness for people to choose you, for you to fit in. There's so much conformity that happens within this, but also they are encouraged to stand out, but not too much, but stand out.""What made Sex and the City so clever and funny? And back then it really was that it was just this like super cheeky dialogue that was very quippy. They would use a lot of puns. They would be very funny.

What happens when the big job ends and no one's lining up to offer another? For Andrew Middleton, that moment sparked an identity crisis, financial panic, and ultimately, a radical reinvention. In this honest and hopeful episode, Andrew shares how it felt to be “airlifted out of relevance” in his 50s, facing ageism, self-doubt, and the loss of structure that once defined his life. But he didn't stop there. Instead, he built something new: a portfolio career based on curiosity, joy, and meaningful work including founding I'm Not Done Yet (INDY), a growing community for older people seeking purpose beyond retirement. You'll learn: Why traditional retirement isn't the only option - and might not be the right one;How to navigate the emotional and financial shocks of leaving a long career;Why soft retirement, side hustles, and experimentation might be the key to fulfilment;How to rebuild identity, community, and self-worth outside corporate life;Why men in midlife need to talk and how doing so changes everything.If you've ever wondered, “What now?” or feared becoming invisible as you age, this episode offers reassurance, inspiration, and a roadmap forward.

In a culture obsessed with youth and novelty, the Torah offers a radically different vision: “Mipnei seivah takum”—rise before the elderly. This week, Rabbi Josh Feigelson explores the mitzvah of honoring elders as both an ethical imperative and a powerful opportunity for mindfulness. Drawing on Jewish wisdom, comedy legend Mel Brooks, and spiritual practice, Josh invites us to confront our own discomfort with aging and instead embrace the dignity, humanity, and wisdom of our elders. Be in touch at a new email address: josh@unpacked.media.

This week Nicola and Di chat with the stunning and soulful Kate Bell. Kate is an international model, writer and yoga teacher, who is passionate about using her voice to challenge outdated ideas in fashion and beyond. Kate has been modelling for 4 decades and has worked for so many incredible designers and iconic brands, appearing in fashion shoots and runway shows all over the world. Now at 57, Kate is speaking out against ageism and advocating for change. In this conversation we hear how Kate got started in modelling, and by the time she was 19, was living in New York and flying all over the world. Kate shares some of the most juicy stories from her early modelling days, which you won’t want to miss. Kate talks about the 2 different worlds and lives she was living - there was the model Kate and the yogi Kate, and she describes the full circle moment, later in her career when she was hired by an activewear brand as a yoga teacher and her two worlds integrated in the most beautiful way. Kate also opens up about the ways she has experienced ageism in her career and how ageism really is the last ‘ism’ that needs to be kicked out of the room! We couldn’t agree more. It was so lovely speaking to Kate. She is graceful, grounded and full of insight and we were so grateful to have this conversation with her in the studio. We hope you love it too.

Chinese authorities and companies are taking steps to address the so-called "curse of 35", a discriminatory hiring practice that sidelines or dismisses workers age 35 and older due to labor costs. More employers across the country are easing age restrictions in their recruitment policies in an effort to promote fairer hiring.中国政府部门和企业正采取措施应对所谓的 “35 岁魔咒”—— 这是一种歧视性招聘做法，因劳动力成本问题将 35 岁及以上的劳动者边缘化或解雇。全国越来越多雇主在招聘政策中放宽年龄限制，以推动更公平的招聘。In Heyuan, Guangdong province, a government recruitment program announced earlier this month that 355 new employees would be hired for government departments this year. The general age requirement is 18 to 35 years old, but that age limit has been extended to 40 for candidates with master's degrees or for demobilized military personnel and their family members.在广东省河源市，本月早些时候公布的一项政府招聘计划显示，今年政府部门将新招聘 355 名工作人员。一般年龄要求为 18 至 35 岁，但拥有硕士学位的应聘者、退役军人及其家属的年龄限制放宽至 40 岁。Candidates as old as 45 who have doctorates and those up to age 50 with senior professional titles may also apply for the program.拥有博士学位的应聘者年龄可放宽至 45 岁，具有高级专业技术职称的应聘者年龄可放宽至 50 岁。Other provinces and cities have introduced similar changes. In November, Shanghai said applicants for the city's civil service exam must be between 18 and 35 years old, with the age limit raised to 40 for those with master's or doctoral degrees.其他省市也推出了类似调整。去年 11 月，上海市表示，该市公务员考试的报考者年龄须在 18 至 35 岁之间，拥有硕士或博士学位者年龄限制放宽至 40 岁。Guangzhou Pharmaceuticals Holdings, a major State-owned enterprise specializing in traditional Chinese medicine, biomedicine and healthcare, announced in May that it welcomes jobseekers under the age 45, with the cap extended to 50 for applicants with notable work experience.广州医药集团是一家专注于中医药、生物医药和医疗健康领域的大型国有企业，在 5 月宣布，欢迎 45 岁以下的求职者应聘，具有显著工作经验的应聘者年龄上限可放宽至 50 岁。"Companies generally seek to hire employees in economical and reasonable ways. That means workers must produce value equal to their pay, or companies may prefer younger candidates who have more energy and cost less," said Zhaopin, a leading online recruitment platform.领先的在线招聘平台智联招聘表示：“企业通常寻求以经济合理的方式雇佣员工。这意味着劳动者必须创造与薪酬相等的价值，否则企业可能更倾向于选择精力更充沛、成本更低的年轻候选人。”Cheng Yang, a senior partner at Beijing-based law firm Lantai Partners, echoed that view in a recent interview with Workers' Daily, a major national newspaper. Cheng said age caps are often used to control labor costs, as older workers may incur higher expenses for wages, healthcare and benefits.最近，北京兰台律师事务所高级合伙人程阳接受《工人日报》采访时对此观点表示赞同。程阳称，年龄限制常被用来控制劳动力成本，因为年长员工可能在工资、医疗和福利方面产生更高费用。However, she emphasized that older employees tend to be more experienced and skilled, and that eliminating age discrimination is becoming increasingly urgent. China began implementing a policy this year to progressively raise the statutory retirement age over 15 years — from 60 to 63 for men and from 50 or 55 to 55 or 58 for women, depending on the occupation.然而，她强调，年长员工往往更有经验和技能，消除年龄歧视变得日益迫切。中国今年开始实施一项政策，将在 15 年内逐步提高法定退休年龄 —— 男性从 60 岁提高到 63 岁，女性根据职业不同从 50 岁或 55 岁提高到 55 岁或 58 岁。Li Xinyu, 33, who works at an advertising agency in Beijing, said she feels growing insecurity and anxiety as she ages in a youth-driven industry.33 岁的李新宇在北京一家广告公司工作，她表示，在一个以年轻人为主导的行业中，随着年龄增长，她感到越来越没有安全感和焦虑。"Younger people are always favored in our industry because employers believe they have more creative ideas," Li said. "That puts a lot of pressure on those of us nearing 35."“在我们这个行业，年轻人总是更受青睐，因为雇主认为他们有更多创意想法，” 李新宇说，“这给我们这些接近 35 岁的人带来了很大压力。”She added that she has enrolled in numerous training programs over the past two years to stay current and enhance her skills, and hopes the government will introduce stricter rules to protect workers in her age group.她补充说，在过去两年里，她参加了许多培训项目，以保持与时俱进并提升技能，并希望政府能出台更严格的规定来保护她这个年龄段的劳动者。In recent years, China has rolled out several national policies aimed at curbing age discrimination. In September, the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council, China's Cabinet, released a guideline calling for high-quality and full employment. The guideline pledged to eliminate unreasonable restrictions and discrimination in employment related to gender and age.近年来，中国已推出多项旨在遏制年龄歧视的国家政策。去年 9 月，中共中央和国务院发布了一份关于高质量充分就业的指导意见。该指导意见承诺消除就业中与性别和年龄相关的不合理限制和歧视。Cheng, from Lantai Partners, said stronger legal measures are needed to define and penalize age discrimination. She recommended that authorities establish a system to screen job ads for biased age limits, and publicly name and penalize companies that engage in discriminatory hiring practices.兰台律师事务所的程阳表示，需要更强有力的法律措施来界定和惩罚年龄歧视。她建议有关部门建立一个系统，筛查招聘广告中存在偏见的年龄限制，并公开点名和惩罚从事歧视性招聘做法的企业。重点词汇age discrimination /eɪdʒ dɪˌskrɪmɪˈneɪʃn/ 年龄歧视recruitment policy /rɪˈkruːtmənt ˈpɑːləsi/ 招聘政策statutory retirement age /ˈstætʃətɔːri rɪˈtaɪərmənt eɪdʒ/ 法定退休年龄labor costs /ˈleɪbər kɔːsts/ 劳动力成本

Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about Talent. While we're seeing a growing awareness of ageism, the reality is that it is regularly ignored as an inclusion factor. The impact of this is staggering. AARP estimates that ageism costs the US economy $850 billion in lost GDP annually, and research shows that intergenerational teams consistently outperform age-segregated ones in terms of productivity and innovation. Yet, unlike other forms of discrimination, age bias is openly accepted in hiring via things like age-coded job descriptions and ATS systems that filter by graduation dates. So what will it take for organizations to recognize that age discrimination isn't just morally wrong - it's actively destroying their competitive advantage? My guest this week is Maureen Clough, host of the 'It Gets Late Early' podcast and advocate against ageism on a mission to expose this universal form of discrimination. In our conversation, she reveals practical strategies for both employers and job seekers to combat age bias while building truly inclusive workplaces that work for everyone. In the interview, we discuss: Is ageism getting worse? The $850 billion impact on GDP How ageism is baked into some recruiting processes Why proving age discrimination in the US is so difficult. What should TA do to combat ageism? The power of intergenerational teams and mentorship AI's impact on entry-level jobs and Gen Z's involuntary disconnection from the workplace Strategies for older job seekers What should the future look like?

In this episode of the Glowing Older podcast, host Nancy Griffin interviews Ashton Applewhite, author of 'This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism.' They discuss Ashton's journey into understanding ageism, the current state of awareness, the importance of policy, and the intersectionality of ageism with other social issues. Ashton introduces her initiative, YODA, aimed at fostering intergenerational connections to combat ageism. About AshtonAn internationally recognized expert on ageism, Ashton Applewhite is the author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism and a co-founder of the Old School Hub. She speaks widely at venues that have included the United Nations and the TED mainstage, and is at the forefront of the emerging movement to raise awareness of ageism and make age a criterion for diversity. In 2022 the United Nations named Ashton one of the Healthy Aging 50: fifty leaders transforming the world to be a better place to grow older.Key TakeawaysOldSchool.info is an anti-ageism clearinghouse—a central repository of tools and resources for the emerging movement against ageism.Ageism is a pervasive issue that affects all aspects of life. We are all biased, but we can control our attitudes about aging. The first step in any social change is awareness, because most bias is unconscious and we can't challenge something when we don't even know exists. Building intergenerational connections is vital for combating ageism. The YODA initiative (Youngers and Olders Dismantling Ageism) aims to connect younger and older generations as a tool to end ageism.Older people resent younger people for having more social and cultural visibility, and young people resent older people for having more political access and moreeconomic clout. Both are true.Fear divides us and people make money off fear. When people are divided, they tend to not come together to change ways of thinking or the ways institutions work.

The 411 on Ageism & How To End It Faster I Janine Vanderburg   For the life of me, given the choice between a strong, more profitable business and letting go of the back-assward stigma around age, the logic is clear. But is it?    Like me, Janine Vanderburg isn't shy about why the math isn't mathing the business reasons why it's about impact not age..    Here's what you'll find out:  What employers don't want you to know  You think it's your resume that needs tweaking or  your interview techniques but What if the real obstacle was something entirely different? What if the system itself was rigged against you in ways you've never considered—not because you're not qualified, but because of your date of birth.  Who's impacted by ageism, or who isn't? When there's a problem like ageism in hiring, it "goes in both directions." As Janine Vanderburg reveals, we're not just talking about discrimination against those 40-plus. "Youngerism" is equally "alive and kicking." If you've been ghosted after interviews, if you've watched less qualified candidates get positions you were perfect for, it might not be you—it might be your birth year. Let's talk about the numbers they're not talking about Last year alone, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission received 16,000 complaints of age discrimination. When surveyed, over 80% of respondents believed they had experienced workplace age discrimination. Even more shocking: Resume Builder's surveys found hiring managers systematically screen out both applicants over 60 AND those under 27. And if you work with AI? 90% of hiring managers don't want to hire anybody over 35 for roles involving artificial intelligence—despite experienced professionals often being the best AI power users. Three Places Ageism Is Sabotaging Your Career (And What to Do About It) Inside your own mind: When you think "I'm too young/old for this position" before even applying In hiring practices: When recruiters make assumptions about your abilities based solely on graduation dates Embedded in systems: When AI screening tools filter you out before a human ever sees your application The Demographic Shift That Will Change Everything By 2030—just five years away—there will be more people over 65 than under 18. Companies unprepared for this reality will be scrambling for talent while others thrive. Will you be positioned to capitalize on this inevitable shift? What Smart Job Seekers Do Differently As Janine advises, "You can be willing to fight to end ageism, and you can also try to preserve your financial security." Both can be true at once. The wisest approach? Learn the unwritten rules, navigate the system strategically, and position yourself where your true value is recognized. Listen now to discover how to turn what looks like an obstacle into your greatest competitive advantage. Janine Vanderburg (https://www.linkedin.com/in/janinevanderburg/) is a Keynote Speaker, and Founder/Director of Changing the Narrative is the leading effort in the U.S. to change the way people think, talk and act about aging and ageism through evidence-based strategies and innovative public campaigns.

Ian Myers isn't here to give you startup hacks—he's here to tell the truth.At just 26, he became a CEO. By 30, he'd built Oceans, a $10 million agency connecting skilled professionals in Sri Lanka with U.S. startups. But his story isn't a straight line—it's an open map. From literature to venture capital, Japan to New York, success and failure, Ian has treated life like a Tintin adventure: follow the clues, embrace the chaos, and keep going.In this conversation, we dig into what really fuels a global entrepreneur—from Buddhist philosophy to a bias for action—and how Ian's building a future-of-work company that's human-first, not hype-driven. For anyone rethinking college, career paths, or the AI takeover, Ian offers something rarer than advice: perspective.Key Highlights of Our Interview:Tintin Over Tech Bros: Why Curiosity Beats Calculation“My role model isn't Musk or Zuck—it's Tintin. He's fearless, inquisitive, and always exploring something new.”Zen and the Founder's Mind“Buddhism taught me how to stay grounded through chaos. That mindset shaped how I lead.”LinkedIn Paralysis Is Real. Here's What to Do Instead.“People tell me, ‘My classmate's a VP already—I've failed.' That thinking's toxic. Just follow what's interesting.”Ageism, Across Borders“In Japan, your age trumps your ideas. It pushed me toward entrepreneurship.”Oceans: Talent Without Borders“We embed Sri Lankan professionals into U.S. startups—not as temps, but as core team members.”AI, Hype, and the Reality Check“Yes, AI is impressive. But like every tech wave, adoption will take longer than people think.”The Diversity Dilemma: Who Gets a Seat at the (Remote) Table?“We've turned down clients who wanted ‘an attractive female EA.'

Age bias is everywhere: online, at work, even in the stories we tell ourselves. Ashton Applewhite wants us to see age not as a limitation, but as a source of strength. In today's episode, Jessi Hempel sits down with the anti-ageism activist to unpack the hidden ways ageism shapes our workplaces, and how we can push back. Ashton is a leading voice in the age equity movement. She's the author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism and founder of the Old School Hub, a resource center filled with free tools to combat age bias. In this conversation, she shares practical strategies for navigating ageism at work, whether you're feeling “too old,” “too young,” or just underestimated. Jessi and Ashton discuss: • Why age has less to do with competence than we think • How internalized ageism holds us back, and how to recognize it • What managers can do to build age-diverse teams • How to tell your story in a way that challenges bias • Tips for job seekers facing age-based assumptions • The power of language in shaping workplace perceptions Continue the conversation with us at Hello Monday Office Hours!

In this second half of his conversation, Gagan Sandhu pulls back the curtain on what it really means to design financial independence. It's not about the FIRE movement or early retirement—it's about knowing your trade-offs and making conscious, math-informed decisions that align with your values. From career reinvention every 10 years to balancing ambition with family time, Gagan offers Gen Xers a refreshingly grounded take on money, identity, and midlife work design.>>Financial Independence Is a Design Decision“I didn't quit to escape. I quit because I could—on my own terms.”Gagan redefines financial independence not as a finish line, but a framework for how to live, work, and choose with freedom.>>It's Not About the Number. It's About the Math Behind Your Life“I built a five-year runway—not a fantasy.”He walks through how he calculated his freedom, X + Y + Z style: long-term retirement, short-term burn, and real-life expenses like college.>>FIRE vs Philosophy“Desires evolve. So does your definition of freedom.”In a head-to-head with Vince, Gagan goes deep on the psychology of wealth—and why independence without self-awareness is just another trap.>>Ageism or Skill Gap?“Don't blame age. Upgrade your playbook.”Gagan reframes mid-career uncertainty not as an HR problem, but a personal pivot point—and makes a sharp case for reinvention every 10 years.>>Teaching the Tool, Not the Trick“You don't need financial content. You need clarity.”He explains how Zillion helps busy families and immigrants manage wealth like pros—not through advice, but through intuitive, data-backed modeling._________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Gagan Sandhu  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

While a relatively new term, ageism is a method of discrimination based on age - typically toward older people, though it can also be directed toward younger people as well. It's a way of enforcing harmful stereotypes - too old to be effective, interesting, too young to have sufficient knowledge or understanding. In this episode, Shantelle and Cristina discuss how ageism can be internalised and used to hinder yourself, without you necessarily even being aware of it. It's a quiet whisper telling you not to wear that, it's too late to try, do or be that. They get to the bottom of where they think it comes from and how to fight it within yourself, and the beauty that can come with successfully removing it from your thoughts. Cristina Carpio is an entrepreneur, media personality, and philanthropist with over two decades of experience across media, hospitality, and the luxury lifestyle sector.
