Disney Lorcana exploded from a $50 D23 promotional set into one of the world's most popular trading card games. In only three years, it has sold nearly 3 billion cards, produced five-figure collectibles and inspired hours-long product-launch lines. But Lorcana also releases four sets a year and retires relatively new cards from competitive play. Is that necessary to keep the game balanced—or a strategy designed to keep Disney fans buying? In this episode we cover: -Lorcana's origin -How the game works -The millennial nostalgia behind its success -The most valuable cards -Whether this is a lasting game or a collectible bubble Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode.

Welcome to another episode of LIFTS, where we explore the future of fitness, wellness and human performance. In this episode, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal are joined by Tony Small, co-founder of Replify, Richard Earney, National Wellness Director at Midtown Athletic, and Mason Levey, co-founder of Y7 Studio, for a special round table recorded live at an exclusive VIP dinner in Chicago, brought together in partnership with ABC Fitness. The fitness consumer is changing. From AI and GLP-1s to wellness, longevity, social media and shifting demographics, the expectations people have of fitness businesses are evolving quickly. The panel explores how younger generations are engaging with fitness differently and whether gyms, studios and health clubs are becoming important spaces for real-world connection. With ABC Fitness data showing Gen Z and Millennials joining and using fitness facilities at higher rates, what does the next generation of members actually want from the industry? They also discuss the growing convergence of fitness, health and wellness, including the impact of GLP-1s and whether fitness businesses should broaden the services they offer or remain focused on their core areas of expertise. The conversation then turns to AI and how technology could help operators deliver more personalised experiences. Rather than using technology primarily to acquire new members, could AI help businesses understand individuals better, communicate with them at the right time and ultimately help create stronger fitness habits? Ultimately, as consumers become more informed, more connected and more demanding, the question is whether the fitness industry can evolve quickly enough to keep pace. In this episode, we cover: How the fitness consumer is changing Why younger generations are engaging with fitness differently Whether fitness is becoming a new kind of social space GLP-1s and the convergence of fitness, health and wellness Whether fitness businesses should expand beyond their core offering Why how exercise makes people feel could become more important How AI could transform the member experience The move from mass communication towards personalisation How technology could help operators build stronger fitness habits Why human connection remains critical as technology evolves Find out more about ABC Fitness - https://abcfitness.com Support fitness industry news by sponsoring future LIFTS episodes.

What does it mean to be a good man? In this episode, Dru Johnson talks with Professor Nancy Pearcey about masculinity, toxic masculinity, feminism, fatherhood, Christianity, and the cultural forces that have shaped modern ideas about men.Pearcey explains why she wrote her book on masculinity after seeing increasingly hostile portrayals of men in popular culture and explores the deeper history behind these attitudes. Rather than tracing hostility toward men only to second-wave feminism, she argues that its roots extend back to the Industrial Revolution and changing ideas about work, family, masculinity, and human nature.The conversation examines how Darwinism and evolutionary psychology have contributed to negative cultural scripts about male aggression, sexuality, and dominance—and how those ideas can help explain the appeal of figures such as Andrew Tate. Pearcey also discusses research suggesting that Christian men can be loving husbands, engaged fathers, and committed family members.The episode explores the importance of recovering a healthier vision of biblical masculinity centered on responsibility, virtue, service, protection, provision, fatherhood, and family. It also considers how working from home, integrating family and work, and reconnecting fathers with their children could help reshape modern family life.Order Professor Nancy Pearcey's book here: https://bakerpublishinggroup.com/products/9780801075735_the-toxic-war-on-masculinityProfessor Nancy Pearcey's website: https://www.nancypearcey.com/Contact us at The Biblical Mind: Click HereWe are listener supported.

Housing prices are through the roof, mortgage rates are high and rents continue to climb. So what's driving today's challenging housing market? This week, Jonathan Miller, CEO of Miller Samuel, joins SoFi Chief Market Strategist Liz Thomas to break down the forces shaping today's housing market. Jonathan shares his perspective on where homebuyers are finding available inventory and why some long-held assumptions about the housing market may no longer apply. He also gives his view on how federal policy could affect home prices and why new construction alone may not solve the housing supply problem. So what does this all mean for Millennials and Gen Z trying to enter the housing market? How are Boomers helping their kids enter the market? Where does the Sandwich generation fall in all this? They get into all of that and more. This episode is for informational purposes only and should not be considered investment advice.

Swiss watchmaking's most compelling momentum may be coming from its independents. These small maisons pairing centuries of technical discipline with remarkably personal creative vision. One Swiss luxury manufacture that has repeatedly shown how an independent spirit can challenge the conventions of high horology is the 180-year-old Ulysse Nardin. Scott Kerr speaks to Francois-Xavier "FX" Hotier, president of Ulysse Nardin Americas, about the modern appeal of independent watchmaking, why direct relationships with collectors define a true independent brand, and how younger, more informed collectors are reshaping luxury watch demand. He also talks about how Ulysse Nardin regaining independence from Kering helped strengthen its collector appeal and why its groundbreaking Freak collection remains the brand's “laboratory on the wrist.” Plus: Why UN watches resonates with AI- and tech-driven wealth creatorsFeaturing: Francois-Xavier Hotier, President of Ulysse Nardin Americas (ulysse-nardin.com)Host: Scott Kerr, Founder & President of Silvertone ConsultingAbout: The Luxury Item is the leading podcast on the business of luxury, and an important resource for global industry decision makers who want to stay one step ahead.

It's Tuesday, August 18th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Arizona pastor murdered by crucifixion Demonically inspired opposition to the Christian faith is on the rise here in the United States as well as overseas. A Christian pastor in Arizona was subjected to a crucifixion-type murder last year. The perpetrator, Adam Sheafe, confessed he did it because the pastor would not compromise on his teaching on the Biblical doctrine of the Trinity and the deity of Jesus Christ. The murderer, in this case, has been sentenced to life in prison. “For this reason, the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath.. . but also that He said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.” That's John 5:16 and 18. Ukraine has achieved an 8-1 casualty ratio with Russia since January Ukraine is back on top in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The Center for Strategic and International Studies reports that Ukraine has achieved as much as an 8-1 casualty ratio since the beginning of the year — up from a 2-1 ratio since the beginning of the war. The report also notes that the war is taking a toll on the Russian people. They suffer from a “sputtering economy, higher prices on groceries and other expenses, tax increases, significant internet restrictions, and an oppressive crackdown on freedom of speech.” Russia has suffered an estimated 450,000 fatalities in the conflict. That compares to the United States losing 102,000 men in military conflicts since World War II. Dramatic increase in military budgets in the Far East Sabers are rattling in the Pacific. Japan's military budget is up 5% year-over-year. South Korea's budget is up 7.5%. The Philippines' budget is up 9%. And Taiwan's is up 16%. China's build-up began 25 years ago and is now averaging 7% per year. China's budget is running at $283 billion compared to Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan which are spending $150 billion combined. America's deficit up 11% Here in America, for the first 10 months of the fiscal year, the U.S. deficit registered an 11% increase year-over-year. That's 31% above the average deficit produced by the Biden budgets between 2021 and 2025. Proverbs 28:22 reads, “A man with an evil eye hastens after riches, and does not consider that poverty will come upon him.” Gen Z investors believe sports betting is good investment An online survey of 1,000 U.S. retail investors conducted in late March and early April, which was released this week, found that 52% of Gen Z investors were planning to shift money originally set aside for stocks or other investments into sports wagers over the past year. Only about one-third of Gen Z participants reported no involvement in sports betting at all, compared with 63% across all age groups in the survey. Specifically, 26% of Gen Z respondents -- those born between 1997 and 2007 -- said they view sports betting as a deliberate, ongoing part of their wealth strategy. That figure drops sharply with age: 14% of Millennials, 6% of Gen X, and just 1% of Baby Boomers reported the same outlook. Overall, U.S. sports betting has increased from $2 billion of waging to $166 billion in waging since 2018 - just eight years ago, according to Research Ground. Gen Z also loves cryptocurrency In addition, Motley Fool's recent survey found that Gen Zers are the most likely to invest in cryptocurrency at 49% compared to other demographics including 46% of Millennials, 26% of Gen Xers, and 11% of Baby Boomers. Plus, 57% of cryptocurrency purchasers think it's an investment, and 26% use it for a monetary exchange. But crypto is losing favor with American investors. Gallup's recent poll found only 2% of Americans favor crypto for a long-term investment which is down from 8% four years ago. Real estate, stocks, and gold are the favorite choices for investors now. The birth dearth in America The National Center for Education Statistics reports that public schools in America have lost almost two million students since 2019. This is partially due to the birth dearth – or the decline in America's fertility rate. Since 2015, it amounts to a loss of about one million children. Births to women in America topped out in 2007 at 2.12 or 2,122 births per 1,000 women aged 15–44. Today, the birth rate is hovering around 1.57 or 1,570 births per 1,000 women. By contrast, the average birth rate for homeschooling families is 3.5 children per family. The Centers for Disease Control reveals that total U.S. births fell off during the first quarter of 2026 — a 2.1% drop off from the previous year. There were 4.3 million births in America in 2007, but only 3.6 million births last year. And we're looking at another drop of about 700,000 students this year. This data points to an 18% drop in American births in 18 years. Based on these recent numbers for American births, by 2031, the public schools will lose another 2.44 million students due to birth decline alone in this country. That's not counting the number of students who drop out. Shocker: Canadian male cyclist beating women in the sport And finally, men, pretending to be women, are once again proving that they can beat women in women's sports. A Canadian cyclist, by the name of “Mr. Ivy,” claimed to have transgendered into a woman; after which he won a women's cycling championship.

We're just getting started.” Contact your two U.S. Senators by phone or email and ask them to vote for the SAVE Act. 1,000 fake marriages to Chinese nationals in New York The Department of Justice charged 11 individuals in New York last week in a massive marriage fraud scheme.

What if the greatest wealth you've been searching for isn't money at all? In this thought-provoking conversation, two friends wrestle with a question that takes an unexpected turn: If someone knew the one truth that could change your life forever, would you want them to keep telling you—even if you didn't want to hear it? This episode explores the difference between temporary riches and eternal treasure.
Pittsburgh is a great hub for thrift, vintage, consignment, and flea market shopping — whether you're hunting for a perfectly broken-in jacket, a weird little piece of history, or something you absolutely did not need but suddenly cannot live without.

Plus, why Millennials should've been stocking up on JNCO jeans instead of beanie babies, how Castle Shannon quietly became a vintage mecca, and a crowdsourced list of Pittsburgh's best secondhand spots.

What Tupac Shakur would've made of Marco Rubio (nothing good!). Tyler Austin Harper's essay in The Atlantic about leaving academia out of frustration at being a "Token Black Professor." University students skipping meals and skipping classes is a sign of a broken system. And in the back half of the episode, Dr. Van Jackson speaks with Dr. Robbie Shilliam about international relations since the Black Lives Matter uprisings of 2020. After George Floyd's police murder and the Black Lives Matter movement explosion in 2020. They also discuss: What made Hans Morgenthau a theorist of race relations, not just international relations; Why the field of IR has a racial blind spot in the first place; Why IR's leading journals, editors, and scholars re-engaged racial questions after 2020 but without drawing on what the discipline's own canonical thinkers had to say about race; Why the Gen Z and Millennial generation of scholars are possibly built differently when it comes to racial issues and historical IR; and How the concept of “frontier” unites Republicanism and imperialism in some of the early thinkers of IR like Frederick Jackson Turner, William Allen, and Merze Tate.

J Gulinello (HealthReclamationProject.com) joins me for a Monday-night kick off!

In this special 9-week series, listeners will hear from three different groups—GenX paired with Millennials, Gen Z, and Boomers with a mix of the Silent Generation. Their conversations cover a variety of topics including technology, unity in the Church, racism, and parenting. Grouped by similar ages, these 12 individuals share their unique views, opinions, and convictions based on their generational upbringing and views of the world. Ranging from ages 16 to 81, we're covering 5 different generations with 16 different guests.In this episode, our Millennials and Gen-X group share their views on parenting, spanking, the necessity of a college education, what motivates them to determine a career, and whether our society has an unhealthy disposition toward safety. Our guests also have a little fun with music—can they identify the artists of popular songs from the other generations? Bios of our Millennial and Gen-X contributors: Amy AldermanAmy Alderman is a Mortgage Loan Closer at the best credit union in the state. She has been married to Dick Alderman for 20 years, and together they have two daughters, Abigail and Audrey. The Aldermans have been part of the Seacoast family for over 15 years. In her free time, Amy loves building puzzles — especially on Saturdays with her mom. She is deeply passionate about Biblical literacy and has been leading a women's Bible study since 2009.David SchirduanDavid Schirduan is a software engineer by day and a game designer by night, with an emotionally needy dog named Ori. He has attended Seacoast for over five years. In his free time, David reads sci-fi and fantasy novels in between rounds of video games. He also runs a small publishing company with eight books and counting. David once lived on a ship in Africa for over a year, and at age 35 made the bold decision to purchase his first-ever pair of sneakers — prior to that, it was strictly flip flops or dress shoes. He is believed to be the only David Schirduan on the planet. The others died under mysterious circumstances.Sean ScapellatoSean Scapellato is a former English and writing teacher who now practices law full-time — his former students having gotten old enough to make that transition feel right. He has been married to his extraordinary wife, Sara, for 33 years and has been attending Seacoast for over 25 years. They have two great kids, Nick and Maggie, ensuring the Scapellato name lives on. An avid reader and writer, Sean hopes one day to write thrillers. He is finally over his obsession with being a fusion drummer, and everyone in his life is grateful.Harmony ButlerHarmony Butler is a Veterinary Practice Coach who has been married to Myron Butler for going on 17 years.

A lifelong vegetarian, she will — on rare and glorious occasions — give in to a craving for a Gwantley's chicken hot dog, without a shred of guilt. Before YouTube changed everything, she appeared in a local commercial that aired regularly in the early 2000s, teaching others to be an example of virtue.Seacoast Podcast is now on InstagramBe a Patron of the podcast We have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024.
