In this interview, Matt sits down with the one and only Fr. Mike Schmitz. The conversation focuses on accepting who God made you to be — as it relates to getting older, detachment (even from good things), anxiety, fatherhood, the spiritual life and more. Also discussed is fitness, the rising interest in Catholicism among young people today, Gen Z vs. Millennials, why Fr. Mike loves being a priest, the impact of Bible in a Year, God's love, grief, Fr. Mike's podcast, and the beauty or religious orders.
In the riveting conclusion of Tom Bilyeu's conversation with WhatifAltHist, we journey deeper into the social and psychological forces driving the modern malaise. This segment picks up with the feminization of culture, the consequences for masculinity, and how evolutionary psychology explains everything from birth rate collapse to rising social distrust. With both wit and a sharp edge, WhatifAltHist analyzes the shifting dynamics between men and women, the devastating impact of merit suppression, hypergamy, and why Gen Z faces a world of atomized social interaction and declining family formation. Part two dives into the pathology of the modern left—from ideological purity spirals to the breakdown of authentic community and the rise of suicidal empathy. The conversation explores the perils of unchecked immigration, authoritarian overreach, and the dangers of ignoring biological realities. The episode wraps with hard-hitting advice on how society might regenerate—championing a return to masculinity, social trust, and the restoration of a truly human context. If you want insight into the deep mechanics of our culture war and the blueprint for unwinding the crisis, this is an essential listen.

According to a new study, 29% of Gen Z finds using cash to be cringe, not king! What do you think for today's hot topic? Plus an all-new Confession Wednesday in today's show!
November 5, 2025: In today's episode of Future Ready Today, I explore five major shifts reshaping the modern workplace. Walmart is redefining loyalty and culture by paying top managers up to $620,000 and giving them a real sense of ownership. At the same time, a wave of corporate layoffs continues to ripple across major companies like Amazon and Oracle as businesses trade people for productivity in the age of AI. Gen Z workers are facing an unprecedented career crisis as automation wipes out traditional entry-level roles, leaving an entire generation without a clear path to start their careers. Across organizations, transformation fatigue is spreading as employees grow weary of endless change, while new research from Mercer reveals how a leadership vacuum is fueling widespread technology anxiety. Together, these stories reveal a powerful truth: technology may be transforming how we work, but leadership still determines how it feels.
Willie talks with Gabe Guidarlini of Turning Point Action, a branch of Turning Point USA, about last night's election and how it might affect Gen Z voters.
On today's Flyover Conservatives Show, we sat down with Mark Mitchell from Rasmussen Reports to uncover shocking new polling data that reveals how young voters are walking away from the old GOP. Mitchell exposes how the political establishment missed three elections in a row and why Gen Z and Millennials are rejecting both parties in favor of a new “America First” movement. From collapsing faith in institutions to the generational clash over capitalism, marriage, and morality—this data shows America is entering a whole new political era.On today's Flyover Conservatives Show, we sat down with Mark Mitchell from Rasmussen Reports to uncover shocking new polling data that reveals how young voters are walking away from the old GOP.

What if the biggest workplace challenge isn't strategy, skills, or systems, but simply understanding each other?
In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers sits down with Toby Hung, co-founder and COO of 1Fort, to discuss the practical application of AI in commercial insurance agencies. Toby shares his background on both the carrier and tech sides, explaining why he co-founded 1Fort to bridge the gap between insurance and technology. The conversation centers on how AI can automate the most time-consuming, non-revenue-generating tasks—like the submission-to-bind process—allowing agencies to 10x their revenue without 10x their headcount. They also explore why AI is the "great equalizer" for small and mid-sized agencies. Key Highlights: The All-in-One AI Solution Toby Hung addresses the frustration agents feel after buying multiple "point solutions" that overpromise and under-deliver. He details 1Fort's all-in-one approach, which uses AI to automate the entire commercial submission process—from extracting data and entering it into carrier portals to generating high-quality, white-labeled client proposals, coverage comparisons, and marketing summaries. AI as the "Great Equalizer" The conversation highlights how AI levels the playing field, enabling small and mid-sized agencies to compete directly with 100-pound gorillas. By using AI, smaller, hungrier agencies can achieve the same level of output, accuracy, and speed as their largest competitors, who are often backed by massive resources. Solving Agency Turnover and Burnout Toby explains that AI is a powerful tool for employee retention. By automating the manual, repetitive tasks that lead to burnout (like spending nine hours a week on submissions), agencies can empower their staff to do more meaningful, high-value work. It also helps attract younger talent (Gen Z, millennials) who expect modern technology in the workplace. Bridging the Tech and Insurance Gap Coming from both the carrier side at AIA and working in big tech, Toby explains that insurance people and tech people often "don't speak the same language." 1Fort was built with agency feedback to be an accessible tool that integrates directly into existing workflows, rather than being another complex piece of software that requires hours of training.

It was a bad showing for Republicans in last night's elections. Democrats had a full sweepin Virginia as Abigail Spanberger won the gubernatorial election, bringing Jay Jones as Attorney General and Ghazala Hashmi as Virginia's Lieutenant Governor. Democrat Mikie Sherrill won in New Jersey and Socialist Zohran Mamdani is now Mayor-elect in New York City. At day 36, we are now in the longest government shutdown in history as President Trump urges Republicans to use the 'nuclear' option. Mark Mitchell is on today's show to unpack the undertones of American society and what happened at the ballot box. As the Republican party frays over personalities like Nick Fuentes, the Democrats have unified in their messaging and assemblance. While their policies have created a situation like New York, while 64% percent foreign-born New Yorkers voted for Mamdani, what lies beneath is much more frightening. While Capitalism has created the richest nation in history, it has also created tremendous wealth disparities and no one feels this more than Gen-Z. Zoomers that voted for Donald Trump were only spilt 44% - 43% on Socialism. Gen-z sees an unaffordable future, a battle of the sexes, and high incidents of mental health. They look at a system that has failed them and have a 'burn it all down' attitude. Democratic-Socialism is appealing to younger voters and Zohran Mamdani is the embodiment of this. Therefore, it is up to Republicans to coalesce with substantive messaging and strong leadership that can carry us into the future.

The holidays are tip-toeing closer, and everyone swears there's "plenty of time". Jean and Laura kick off with gift talk, including the latest hot gadget: the Wi-Fi love lamp that lets loved ones send colorful light signals to say "Hey, I'm awake!" or "I miss you!" or "I pressed the wrong color again."Then we tumble headfirst into the viral "six-seven" trend (is this our fault? Did Boomers accidentally start this?)We discover that egg plates are suddenly a Gen Z treasure, and defend the honor of the noble China cabinet.Laura faced three days without her phone and ends up on an Apple Store pilgrimage full of forgotten passwords, blinking screens, and the slow unraveling of short-term memory. Is tech making us all forgetful? And should we be panicking when the Medicare memory test arrives?

On this special episode of @Betches, sponsored by Hulu's All's Fair, Sami, Jordana, and Aleen take a trip down memory lane to share how Betches was built from the ground up. They get into the post-grad, living at home hustle, the first “wait, this is real” brand deals, and how Betches became a genuine source of connection for women everywhere. They break down how they'll keep the Betches voice while welcoming Gen Z into the fold, how each of them naturally slid into their role, and who they'd cast to play them in the inevitable Betches movie. Plus, they put 20+ years of friendship to the test with a newlywed-style game to see who actually knows who best.

When employers say “26 is the new 18,” what they're really noticing is Tim Elmore's Peter Pan paradox in action: the age of authority is dropping while the age of maturity is rising. In this energizing conversation, Tim and Ginny decode Gen Z's “magic and tragic”—their native fluency with tech and AI alongside lagging people skills—and offer hopeful, practical ways to coach rather than complain. You'll hear why childlikeness is fading while childishness expands, how social media turned from connection to performance, and why soft skills (read: people skills) will be the ultimate edge in the AI age. Listen for simple, family-ready reps—hosting adults, letting kids own their schedules, building EQ—and workplace plays like great first days, hobby-like projects, and leading with empathy. We also get real about the gig economy, shrinking loyalty ladders, and why teens need margin, movement, mindfulness, and management to protect mental health and grow grit. You'll leave with language that reframes Gen Z from “problem” to “potential,” and with concrete steps for parents, teachers, and team leaders to build self-awareness, social awareness, and emotional regulation in everyday life. Leaders are dealers of hope—start here, share this episode with a friend who's wrestling with Gen Z, and model the future you want your kids to inherit.

Mike dives into the fiery debate over Tucker Carlson’s controversial interview with Nick Fuentes, tackling the growing clash within MAGA over free speech, censorship, and the next generation of conservatives. Broadcasting fresh off his trip to Israel, Mike pushes back hard against the idea of “deplatforming,” warning that silencing voices—even offensive ones—only fuels their power.

At just 21 years old, Stella Prince has already done what most artists spend a lifetime chasing.She's been called “the artist bringing folk music to Gen Z” by Forbes, sang at a John Prine tribute in Nashville, and will record her debut album under the Northern Lights in Iceland.But what struck me most wasn't her voice (which has shades of Joni Mitchell and Brandi Carlile)…It was her work ethic and gratitude.For seven years, she handled everything — booking, performing, social, promotion — completely solo.Then, in the last nine months, her dream team came together.And her reflection is powerful:“It's really life-changing to finally have support from other people. It's the biggest shift I've ever felt.”

In this episode of Faith + State, Vince Miller and his son-in-law, Minnesota State Rep. Elliott Engen, talk about what it means to stand for truth in an age of moral confusion. From discipleship to politics, they challenge believers to stop spectating and start engaging—because when good men do nothing, evil wins by default. Summary: We live in a world that's lost its moral compass—where "my truth" replaces the truth. In this conversation, Pastor Vince Miller and Politician Elliott Engen discuss how moral relativism is shaping our schools, laws, and even our churches. They call Christians to engage—not just complain—by discipling, serving, and standing for what's right. Whether you're a pastor, parent, or policymaker, this episode will equip you to fight for truth with both conviction and compassion.

Eric Peters from Eric Peters Autos joins me for our weekly visit. We talk about elections, the individual vs the collective and how Ohio is tempting conservatives with control issues with a proposed law punishing "refusal to disclose." It's useless to pretend that everything isn't getting more costly, thanks to inflation. Ron Paul says, if you can't afford a vacation, blame the fed.
