The Trump administration has created an incentive for Americans to have more children within the next three years. Any baby born between Jan. 1, 2025, and Dec. 31, 2028, is eligible for $1,000 of seed money in a tax-advantaged investment account known as a “Trump Accounts,” though any parent with a child under 18 can open an account for their son or daughter. The account operates similarly to an IRA, and parents, relatives, and friends can contribute up to $5,000 annually, though they do not have to make regular contributions. “Your child's funds will automatically be invested in American companies,” according to the Trump Accounts website. When the child turns 18, they can either allow the account to continue to grow, or they can withdraw the funds for education costs or to purchase a home. If the maximum amount is contributed to the account annually from the time the child is born, the account will have grown to over $270,000 by the child's 18th birthday. Between the rapid increase in the cost of living over the past 20 years, and many young people in debt with student loans, true financial freedom is a distant dream for many in their 20s and 30s, but “Trump Accounts” could change that for the next generation. If Americans take advantage of the program to its full extent, Generation Alpha, born between 2010 and 2024, and Beta, born between 2025 and 2039, can hope to avoid the financial situation many millennials and Gen Z young people find themselves in today. On this week's edition of “Problematic Women,” we discuss the potential financial and political implications of Trump Accounts. Plus, we celebrate the day of love and romance with our favorite hot takes on Valentine's Day. Enjoy the show! Trump Unveils New Initiatives to Bring Real Food to Americans Robert F.

Bad Bunny, a érigé l'amour en valeur refuge, lors du spectacle de mi-temps du Superbowl, la finale du championnat organisé par la National Football League aux Etats-Unis.Un mariage a même été célébré en direct. Alors l'amour romantique de couple reste-t-il la valeur cardinale ? L'équipe de Sur le Fil s'est posé la question, car des études récentes montrent une hausse du célibat, voire de la solitude, notamment au sein de la Gen Z, autrement dit les jeunes qui ont aujourd'hui entre 15 et 30 ans environ.L'organisation pour la coopération et le développement économique l'OCDE a par exemple fait état en octobre d'une hausse inquiétante de la solitude dans 26 pays sur les trente qui la composent, pour l'essentiel des pays riches. De quoi affoler certains économistes, qui voient dans la chute de la natalité qui en découle, un grand danger pour les finances publiques et l'activité économique. Mais ces chiffres, qui donnent lieu aussi à des débats politiques autour de la valeur du couple hétérosexuel cachent mille nuances. Et la première c'est que même si le couple reste une valeur sûre, le célibat n'est pas toujours solitaire ni synonyme de de manque d'amour.

En los últimos años estamos presenciando un fenómeno sorprendente dentro de la Generación Z. Algunos ya lo llaman “avivamiento silencioso” que no ocurre en templos multitudinarios ni en redes virales, sino en el trasfondo cultural de los jóvenes. Mientras las mujeres Gen Z se están secularizando a una velocidad récord, los hombres de la misma edad mantienen niveles estables de afiliación religiosa, creando la percepción de un resurgimiento espiritual masculino. Desde el punto de vista social, este cambio está ligado a una fuerte divergencia política, a la influencia de ecosistemas digitales conservadores y a la búsqueda de estructura, identidad y pertenencia entre jóvenes que experimentan soledad y desorientación.Dona a Radio Moody: https://give.moodyradio.org/radio-moody/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join Monica and Taylor for a thoughtful (and surprisingly layered!) chat about the "not like other girls" conundrum. What started as a casual comment during recording turned into a fascinating exploration of how we as women pit ourselves against each other—and for what? In this episode, we unpack: The origins of the "not like other girls" trope and how it shows up in our lives Our own experiences with feeling pressure to either stand out OR fit in (spoiler: we had opposite journeys!) How this connects to mommy wars, feminism, and those impossible gender roles we're all trying to navigate Why Gen Z might actually be doing this better than we did The beautiful messiness of self-acceptance Plus: We get real about raising daughters, the cafeteria-style approach to life choices, and why "let people like what they like" might be the most important phrase ever. Bottom line? We're all just humans having individual experiences. The sooner we accept ourselves (and each other), the better off we'll all be. This episode is a special shortened preview from More Personal, Monica's premium, private, ad-free podcast for the Supporters Club, starting at just $5 a month.

Generation Z is not all that smart – now that’s not what Todd Starnes says – but that is what the experts say. The generation born between 1997 and 2010 is the very first generation that did worse in school than the generation before them. Dr. Jared Horvath is a top neurologist and he recently testified before Congress regarding standardized academic tests. He says Gen-Z underperformed on basically every cognitive measure from basic attention, literacy and general IQ. The doctor says one of the reasons is because kids are spending too much time in front of screens – and not enough time actually learning. Dr. Horath says he’s not anti-tech, rather he’s pro-rigor. He wants schools to put away the laptops and give the kids actual books – make them use a pen and a piece of paper again. I’m not so sure about the doctor’s take on Generation Z- but it sure would be nice if they would return phone calls – and answer text messages on the same day they were sent.

Feb 13, 2026: Inflation just cooled to 2.4%. Markets are betting on rate cuts. And at the same time, Anthropic raised $30 billion at a $380 billion valuation. That's not coincidence — it's transition. In today's episode, I break down: • What falling inflation actually means for capital and corporate strategy • Why Anthropic's massive funding round signals intelligence becoming infrastructure • The U.S. Department of Labor's new national AI literacy framework — and what it means for workforce strategy • The "AI scare trade" hitting markets beyond tech • Why IBM is tripling entry-level hiring in the middle of AI disruption This isn't about hype. It's about capital flows, workforce redesign, and how leadership must evolve as intelligence scales. When the cost of capital falls and the cost of intelligence falls, the cost of standing still rises. Let's unpack what this moment really means.

On this episode of Tommy Talk, Tommy dives into the unwritten rules for calling, texting and FaceTiming. Is it ever okay to rogue FaceTime someone? Are voice notes longer than one minute annoying or actually appreciated? How long should someone take to respond to a text? Does anyone even leave voicemails anymore, and do they still have value? Tommy shares his millennial perspective, then turns to his two Gen Z producers, Celia and Steph, to find out what really triggers them when it comes to phone communication in 2026.

This week on Parenting Out Loud, we're joined again by Luca Lavigne, so of course things went off without a hitch.
I noticed a growing number of internet people (mostly without any industry knowledge) trashing the beverage brand PRIME. And I get it…people love to kick someone (or something) when they're down, especially if it's a highly visible (maybe even a bit controversial) consumer brand partly owned by polarizing internet celebrities. Although if you stumbled into this expecting it would be just another copy/paste overly dramatic “rise and fall of PRIME” content piece…I'm sorry to disappoint you! But if you're into first principles thinking that produces fresh perspectives then hopefully, you'll stick around…mostly because when these internet people simultaneously proclaimed, “PRIME serves as a modern Case Study in the volatility of hype-first business models,” they collectively forgot to mention their whole thesis was foundationally established by whichever AI model prompts scraped my old strategic commentary within my content years earlier. Nevertheless, before getting started…while I'm not going to retrace the meteoric rise of PRIME, I have the utmost respect for what it achieved in those initial two years…and no one can ever take away that PRIME not only generated over a billion dollars in annual retail sales globally faster than any CPG brand in history but impacted (influenced) the overall industry in ways that will be felt for a very long time. However, over the last two years, PRIME has faced a classic “identity trap.” While PRIME obviously achieved viral success with Gen Z and Gen Alpha, essentially becoming a status symbol…older consumers (whether parents or not) often viewed the brand as a neon-colored faddish drink made for children. Attempting to fix this (and increase buy rates among Millennials and Gen X), PRIME shifted its strategy from "hype marketing” to functional legitimacy. Though, apart from throwing the "Gatorade Blueprint" sports marketing proverbial Hail Mary, what could PRIME really have done after retail sales momentum slowed…and aggressive over-expansion left inventory bloat? When the viral novelty faded…and once-scarce bottles were found everywhere (on-promotion), it signaled to younger consumers that the brand was no longer "exclusive.” Moreover, older consumers remained critical (warranted or not) that PRIME lacked the sodium and electrolytes necessary for true rehydration purposes. So, faced with two very different challenges impacting demand…PRIME decided to tackle “product” concerns over attempting to reignite cultural virality (which is extremely complex). Last month, PRIME officially entered the RTD protein category by launching a line of ultra-filtered protein milkshakes. PRIME Protein represents maybe the last remaining product strategy impactful enough to transition the beverage brand from a youth-centric "hype" product into a legitimate player within the functional beverages category. Lastly, and this cannot be overlooked when explaining why the “doom and gloom” scenario likely never came (or didn't come as severely) for PRIME yet. If you weren't aware, the more hidden owners of PRIME also co-founded Alani Nu. Obviously, everyone knows by now, Celsius Holdings acquired Alani Nu for $1.8 billion last April. But while that liquidity event maybe helps assess future risk/reward considerations, it's recognizing the culmination of that intertwined business activity that's most helpful because when a CPG brand rockets from zero to over $1 billion in two years…then falls to around $250 million two years later, it would normally result in chapter 11 bankruptcy.

¡Hoy el programa se puso de otro planeta (literalmente)! Samuel Rodríguez trajo su sombrero de aluminio y soltó sus teorías más fuertes sobre la vida extraterrestre. ¿Cómo serían? ¿Ya están entre nosotros? Samuel intenta convencer a Manuel Silva y Natalia Moretti de que no estamos solos en el universo, y sus argumentos te dejarán pensando (o riendo). Y de las estrellas bajamos a la naturaleza, porque nos metimos en un rabbit hole de internet: Los Therians. ¿Has visto gente en TikTok corriendo en cuatro patas o usando máscaras realistas? No son disfraces, es una identidad. Analizamos qué significa ser un Therian y en qué se diferencian de los Furries. ¿Es algo místico, psicológico o solo una moda de la Gen Z?

What do you do when the people who taught you about Jesus let you down? In a generation that has watched spiritual leaders fall publicly and painfully, trust doesn't come easily. Maybe you've asked, Is everyone in the church a hypocrite? Or maybe you're carrying quiet church hurt and wondering if it's even worth going back. In this episode, we talk honestly about it and turn to Scripture to see what God actually says about flawed leaders, accountability, forgiveness, wisdom, and healing. The Bible reminds us: The church has always been filled with imperfect people (Romans 3:23; Acts 6; Galatians 2). Leaders are held accountable (James 3:1; Ezekiel 34). Forgiveness is hard but healing (Colossians 3:13). Wisdom matters—sometimes you stay, sometimes you leave (James 1). And ultimately, our trust belongs in God, not in human leaders (Psalm 118:8). If you've ever struggled to trust the church again, this conversation is for you. Helpful Resources: Book: Fractured Faith Book: All Your Life Watch the conversation on YouTube here.

Feb 12, 2026: In this episode of Future-Ready Today, I break down four major stories that reveal how the workplace is recalibrating in 2026. Ford is boosting companywide bonuses to 130% after major quality improvements — a clear signal that performance discipline is back. At the same time, 60% of Gen Z say they plan to pursue skilled trade careers, challenging the long-standing college-to-corporate pipeline. I also dive into a new Harvard Business Review study showing that AI isn't reducing workloads — it's intensifying them. Employees are working faster, taking on broader responsibilities, and extending their hours, often voluntarily. And as AI adoption accelerates, safety leaders at major AI firms are quitting, raising deeper questions about ethics, speed, and institutional trust. If you're a leader trying to understand compensation strategy, talent shifts, productivity pressure, and cultural tension in an AI-accelerated world, this episode is for you.

Tara dives into a growing cultural shift: Gen Z is delaying — or outright skipping — getting a driver's license. Once seen as the ultimate symbol of teenage freedom, driving is now considered expensive, stressful, and even dangerous by many young people. With licensing rates dropping from nearly half of all teens in the 1980s to just a quarter today, Tara explores whether this trend reflects maturity, fear, economic reality, or a deeper societal change. From personal stories and listener reactions to debates about road safety and age requirements, this episode asks a bigger question — should sixteen-year-olds even be driving at all? ⚡ PRIMARY TALKING POINTS The sharp decline in teen driver's licenses Why Gen Z is waiting longer — cost, fear, online lifestyles Uber and rideshare culture reshaping independence Personal stories of teen driving anxiety and close calls Are younger drivers less prepared than previous generations? Debate: Should the legal driving age be raised? Listener texts — nostalgia vs. modern caution Regional safety concerns and dangerous driving environments
Dennis is joined via Zoom by playwright Robert Axelrod to discuss his new play Lifeline, which is a dramedy about a group of new volunteers at a suicide hotline. It was inspired by Robert's own experience as a volunteer for The Trevor Project hotline. Robert talks about what it was like to volunteer there, the extensive training volunteers go through and he recalls some of his more memorable conversations. He also talks about the importance of collaboration and why he loves to be the dumbest person in the room. Other topics include: the moment he got bitten by the playwriting bug, the ancestral magic of theater, how he approaches writing characters that aren't like him, like a neurodivergent Gen Z-er and a trans woman of color and why showing up at work toting a latte from Starbucks and a scone might rub some co-workers the wrong way.
