Many of the graduates whose university costs were funded with Plan 2 student loans are now in their 30s, wondering why they have no money at the end of the month, and why they still owe more student debt than they left uni with. The critical mass of graduates feeling the pinch might just have been reached - and now they're feeling angry and ripped off. On this week’s personal finance edition of Merryn Talks Money, Editor at Large for Bloomberg UK Wealth, Merryn Somerset Webb and author of the Money Distilled newsletter, John Stepek unpick how Plan 2 and the new - perhaps even worse - Plan 5 loans work, how and why graduate marginal tax rates can easily exceed 50% and what tweaks could be made to ease the burden. They also ask the overarching question: is the problem the system? Or is it the fact that the UK seems to be incapable of creating enough high paying jobs?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Martin Shaw on February 5, 2026 at the Graduate by Hilton Evanston Hotel. There's an old Irish belief that if you aren't wrapped in a cloak of story you will be unprepared for what the world will hurl at you. You remain adolescent at just the moment a culture worth its salt requires you to become a real, grown, human being. Myths from antiquity are vivid in describing the conditions of life. Christianity goes a step further in providing the most extraordinary example of how to live that life. Working out of examples from Arthurian and fairy tale motifs, acclaimed mythographer Martin Shaw shows how, if ‘all true is God's truth', profound Christian resonances can be found in many mythic traditions. How do stories assist us in the making of a real human being? In troubled times how could we forge a deeper life? In this event, we welcome Dr. Martin Shaw to celebrate the release of his new book _Liturgies of the Wild_.

Science can feel isolating when you don't see yourself reflected around you. This episode brings together two stories about the search for representation, connection, and belonging in STEM.Part 1: Graduate student Angelique Allen doesn't fully understand the strong connection she feels to the 2015 animated film Home. Part 2: Growing up in segregated 1950s Baltimore, Ken Phillips learns early who society says he can't be. Angelique Allen is a graduate student at the University of Oregon, the founder of Dreams of a Scientist, and an aspiring dirtbag. She spends most of her time thinking about science, with a focus on researching octopus brains and creating art that helps integrate science into society. She spends the rest of her time sleeping in the back of her car, climbing rocks, and doing anything she possibly can to see a sea slug (including but not limited to SCUBA diving, snorkeling, and tidepooling). To follow along her scientific journey (and see what her elderly cat is up to) check her out on instagram @angeliques.outthere. Ken Phillips has served as Curator of Aerospace Science at the California Science Center in Los Angeles since 1990 and is responsible for shaping its exhibits and programs in aeronautics and space exploration. In 1991, he began planning a display of a flown space shuttle orbiter that culminated in NASA awarding the Space Shuttle Endeavour to the California Science Center two decades later. He is now working toward the opening of the 200,000 square-foot Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center for which groundbreaking occurred in June 2022. Ken has taught numerous courses in astrophysics, planetary geology, and space exploration to primary and secondary school students, and is an adjunct professor of the practice of physics and astronomy at the University of Southern California (USC) where he teaches the freshman seminar entitled “The Space Shuttle and our Place in the Universe.” Through the USC Prison Education Program, he also teaches introductory astronomy to students in correctional facilities. He received his bachelor's in physics from North Carolina A&T State University, a master's in general engineering from the University of Wisconsin, and a doctorate in environmental engineering from The Johns Hopkins University.

A spontaneous Wednesday transmission that was never supposed to happen. The moon is in Pisces. The energy is eerie.

It's about being a one-line investigator in human design (perpetually curious, never satisfied, always getting nuggets), having an undefined throat that says what everyone else is thinking, and having a defined heart that gives you the confidence to actually say it—which makes you a leper.Also: why hazelnut Chobani tastes the same as sweet Chantilly (it's all emotional support creamer), why consumer packaged goods companies own all the indie brands you think are saving the environment, and why the brand name "Kumar" isn't even her name and gives her a pebble in her shoe every time she sees it.

Simon and Garfunkel -  Bookends (Columbia) Released on April 3, 1968,Bookends stands as one of the most concise yet thematically ambitious albums of the 1960s. The album blends folk, pop, and studio experimentation into a unified meditation on aging, memory, and identity. Conceived partly as a song cycle, Side One traces the arc of life—from youthful searching in “America” to mortality in “Old Friends”—framed by the delicate “Bookends Theme.” Inspired by the album-as-art statement approach of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the record features layered production shaped by engineer Roy Halee. Side Two balances introspection with radio-ready immediacy, including the cultural landmark “Mrs. Robinson,” written for the film The Graduate. Though running under 30 minutes, the album feels expansive in scope, thanks to its orchestration, field recordings, and emotional pacing. Bookends became the duo's first No. 1 album and helped secure their full artistic control for the even more ambitious Bridge Over Troubled Water. More than a collection of hits, it remains a poignant reflection on time's passage and the fragile beauty of human connection.(S5-Ep7)

Jack Marshall, a blind man from Stoke-on-Trent who has moderate hearing loss has recently picked up his degree certificate in Computer Science and Music Production at Keele University's winter graduation ceremony and hopes that his story of going through mainstream and specialist education will help to inspire other blind and partially sighted people to achieve their goals in life. When Jack was born he was diagnosed with retinopathy of prematurity and also has some moderate hearing loss too. He went through mainstream education up to A-levels, then went on to the Royal National College for the Blind, where he got into computers and music which encouraged him to go on to Keele University to study Computer Science and Music Production.Jack explains to RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey about how he wants to use his story and experiences of going through education and graduating with his degree to encourage other blind and partially sighted people to not let barriers get in the way of achieving their goals in life whatever that might be.(Image shows the RNIB Connect Radio logo.

A candid conversation with Eric Brotman on why retirement planning needs structure, flexibility, and fewer assumptions. One of the things I've learned after years of retirement planning conversations is that most people aren't short on opinions — they're short on clarity. They've heard plenty of rules.They've absorbed countless headlines.They've picked up advice from coworkers, friends, and financial media. But when you slow things down and ask a simple question — “Why are you doing it this way?” — the answer is often some version of, “That's just what I've always heard.” I recently sat down on the “Don't Retire… Graduate!” podcast with host Eric Brotman (author of “Don't Retire, Graduate” and previous guest of my podcast back in the “Retirement Revealed” days) to discuss why building a better retirement plan starts with asking better questions. Eric is the author of Don't Retire, Graduate, and his core message is relatable to everyone entering retirement: retirement isn't a finish line. It's a transition — and transitions deserve thoughtful planning, not assumptions. As Eric put it during our conversation, “Most people think retirement is a decision. It's not. It's a process.” Why One-Time Decisions Matter So Much to a Retirement Plan When you're working, mistakes are usually correctable. Save too little one year? You can increase contributions later. Invest poorly early on? Time often smooths things out. Retirement doesn't work that way. Retirement is full of one-way doors — decisions you can't easily undo. Social Security claiming. Pension elections. Medicare choices. Tax strategies.  Once those decisions are made, you often live with them for decades. This is where many retirement plans quietly fail. Not because the investments are bad, but because the planning skipped the hard questions upfront. The Quiet Problem of Underspending One of the most interesting threads in our conversation was something I see often with clients but rarely see addressed directly: underspending. People spend decades being disciplined savers. They're rewarded for delaying gratification. Then retirement arrives — and suddenly they're supposed to flip a switch and start spending confidently? That transition is harder than most people expect. Eric described it bluntly: “A lot of retirement plans are designed to avoid failure, not to support a great life.” When plans are built entirely around extremely high “success rates,” the tradeoff is often living smaller than necessary. Retirees follow conservative rules, spend cautiously, and end up with more money at the end of life than they started with — not because they needed it, but because no one ever gave them permission to use it. That's how an effort to preserve your money in retirement can turn into a missed opportunity. Why Rules of Thumb Aren't Enough Rules like the 4% withdrawal guideline exist for a reason — they're simple and memorable. But that simplicity comes at a cost. Rules of thumb can be useful starting points, they become problematic when people treat them as guarantees rather than guidelines that require context. Markets change. Taxes change. Spending changes. Life changes. A retirement plan that assumes constant spending and ignores flexibility is solving a math problem that doesn't exist in the real world. What works better is a framework that expects adjustment — not perfection. Retirement as a Graduation, Not an Ending The phrase “Don't retire, graduate” isn't about working forever. It's about intention. Some people want to fully step away from work. Others want to consult, volunteer, or stay mentally engaged. Neither approach is right or wrong — but drifting into retirement without deciding is where dissatisfaction often starts. What makes a difference for most retirees? Having a purpose to your life in retirement as a new chapter, not a conclusion to the entire book. When you treat retirement as a graduation into something new, the planning naturally becomes more thoughtful. Spending decisions align with values. Time gets treated as intentionally as money. And confidence replaces guesswork. The Real Goal of Retirement Planning At its core, this conversation wasn't about beating markets or optimizing spreadsheets. It was about aligning math with real life. A good retirement plan doesn't just aim to avoid running out of money. It aims to help you live well — without constant second-guessing. For many, effective retirement planning isn't about dying with the most money. It's about using the money you've earned to live well, without fear or constant second-guessing. That's a goal worth planning for. If you're approaching retirement — or already there — this episode will challenge some comfortable assumptions and help you think differently about what your plan is actually designed to do.

You graduate. You pack. You move across the country. But then... Your advisor calls to say you didn't actually graduate. Simultaneously, the industry you've been studying for 4 years tanks due to a recession. Now what?We're continuing our series about reframing failure after graduation with InterVarsity Alumnus Joel Anderson. Joel shares about a time when everything that could go wrong did go wrong. And, yet, somehow God used each perceived failure to accomplish his purposes and protect Joel in ways he didn't think were possible. RELATED EPISODE(S)Oops!

What does it actually look like when a parent and student commit to graduating college debt-free? In this episode, I sit down with Kelly, a mom and financial advisor who is actively helping her daughter go through college without student loans. We talk through the real conversations that had to happen early — including the moment they decided she would not take student loans — and how having a clear plan changed everything. From a parent's perspective, Kelly shares how being intentional, getting on the same page as a family, and involving her daughter directly in the process made all the difference. We also break down practical steps like getting a job during college, contributing to her own 529 account, and finding campus jobs that allow students to get paid while doing homework. You'll also hear simple explanations of what a 529 account is, how compound interest works, parent loans, and how it compares to a high-yield savings account — all in plain English. If you're a parent, a student, or both, this episode will help you understand how to get started with a real-life debt-free college plan.

Stressed because it's so expensive? Are you having trouble finding scholarships, or all you find don't apply to you? Overwhelmed with all things school and money?   Welcome fam! This podcast will help you find and get scholarships, avoid student loans and maybe even graduate college debt-free!   Hey! I'm Kara, a Christian entrepreneur, amateur snowboarder, and scholarship BEAST! I figured out how to not only finish college debt-free, but I even had $10k left over in the bank after graduation. (& btw, my parents weren't able to help me financially either!)   During school, I was worried about paying for next semester. I couldn't find scholarships that worked specifically for me, and didn't know how to get started while juggling homework and keeping up with ALL.THE.THINGS.   But dude, I learned there was a better way! With God's direction, I tested out of classes, and found the perfect scholarships, grants, internships, and weird budget hacks that helped me go from overwhelmed to debt-free with $10k in the bank–all with God on my side.   ... and I'm here to walk you through this, too.   If you are ready to find scholarships specific to you, learn to manage your money well, and have enough money to kill it at college, this pod is for you!   So grab your cold brew and TI-89, and listen in on the most stress-free and debt-free class you've ever attended: this is Money and Mental Peace.

Domestic abuse is an unfortunate reality for far too many people. Many people will flee a bad situation with no real plan for the future beyond surviving.  Today, we chat with Patti Slaughter, the Founder and Executive Director of  The Bernie House. Named for Patti's father and his legacy of caring, The Bernie House (or houses) is a place for families to live in a true home while they get back on track. Victims of domestic violence will typically flee their situation after seven incidents, but shelters are only a temporary solution. The Bernie House and its four homes are what comes next! (And to correct a statistic that I tried to recall when speaking with Patti-- 2 out of 5 people are victims of domestic abuse!) During their stay, resources for education, employment, and life skills are made available. At the end of their stay, all the contents of their home are left with them. Truly, this is an amazing organization that defines the phrase "small but mighty." We also hopped on the phone with Stephanie Canali, who has written a book about her situation and her experience with The Bernie House-- Breaking Chains, Building Homes: The Bernie House Transformation. Stephanie's story is one of grit and perseverance with a VERY happy ending! Plus, she'll be at Hearts and Hatters (see below) signing books! We also chat about Hearts and Hatters! This gala is an annual event around this time of the year, held in support of The Bernie House. And it is a great time to boot! This year, it will be held on Valentine's Day at the Graduate by Hilton Hotel on West Street. Tickets are available at The Bernie House's website or on the Where In Annapolis (app).

Last time on "How We Heard It," your hosts looked at the top-selling music artists from the 1960s to the 2020s and ranked them, decade by decade. They debated, argued and came to some consensus as they considered all of music's biggest acts from the Beatles to Taylor Swift.   This time around, they decided to rank the best and worst movies that were tops at the box office from the 1960s to the 2020s, and let's just say they were taken by surprise at just how much the film industry has changed over the years.   The box office take in the 1960s and 1970s was topped by such varied and ambitious films as "The Sound of Music," "The Graduate," "2001: A Space Odyssey," "Star Wars," "Jaws" and "The Godfather." Meanwhile, four of the top 10 films from the 2010s were all from the "Avengers" franchise, and the top six movies so far in the 2020s have all been sequels.   Has Hollywood become too dependent on redundancy, or do film audiences simply prefer sequels to brand-new stories? Are superhero movies and action films succeeding at the expense of other genres like comedies, dramas and romance? What new movies have been bucking modern trends? And were the old movies really so great in the first place?   "How We Heard It" weighs in on these and other questions as your hosts relive some of their favorite times at the movies ... as well as some of the most numbing ones.

Maria Pe Talks About Journey to the Upper Realm Our guest today is someone that Roberta Grimes has known for almost fourteen years. They met soon after Maria Pe had suffered what was an almost unimaginable tragedy. Back so many years ago, Craig Hogan and Roberta Grimes were still were putting on afterlife conferences, and they met Maria Pe at one of those conferences in Scottsdale, Arizona. She had lost her two beautiful young sons when their father had murdered them, and she had an amazing story to tell about how she had managed to get in touch with them across the veil, and even learned how to meet with them by herself astral-traveling in the astral plane. And yes, that is certainly possible! Maria is such a wonderful inspiration to parents whose children have transitioned that when Roberta first began Seek Reality as a podcast, a dozen years ago, she invited her to be a guest a couple of times on this new podcast. But then they lost track of one another. Now they are in touch again, and Roberta has gladly invited Maria back to again be our guest, and to share with us how her sons, Sean and Kyle, are doing in their ongoing lives in the afterlife. Maria Pe is a Harvard University graduate, and a Graduate of the University of San Diego School of Law. She is a former attorney in human resources and private practice who has since retired from the County of San Diego. Maria tells us that she had no prior religious beliefs or spiritual practices at all prior to her sons' deaths in 2011. But the wonderful thing is that she learned how to do what she calls journey meditations to connect with her sons in spirit, which helped in her journey through grief into healing. Her terrific book about all of this is called Journey to the Upper Realm. And Maria Pe's website is seanandkyleimaginefund.com.

Hilton is reportedly preparing a new brand aimed squarely at smaller college towns, expanding its Graduate strategy with a more accessible concept called Undergraduate by Hilton. As immigration enforcement ramps up and travel infrastructure gets pulled into the spotlight, much of the U.S. travel industry is choosing silence — raising questions about neutrality, values, and risk. And Taiwan's Starlux Airlines unveils a gold Airbus A350, turning an aircraft into a flying branding experiment in the attention economy. On today's Skift Daily Briefing, Sarah Dandashy breaks down what these moves say about branding, positioning, and strategy in travel right now.

A healing birth can change the way you understand everything that came before it. In this episode, Dr. Dekker talks with EBB Childbirth Class graduate Michaela Raines about experiencing a deeply healing birth after a first birth that didn't go as planned. Michaela shares her first hospital birth story—including unexpected interventions, a long pushing phase, perineal trauma, and a NICU stay—and how those experiences shaped her postpartum recovery. She then walks us through how education, intentional preparation, and support helped her approach her second pregnancy differently, leading to a fast, unmedicated water birth at a freestanding birth center. Michaela also reflects on how this birth felt both physically and emotionally redemptive and what she would share with parents preparing for a subsequent birth after a challenging experience.

"I just want to say one word to you.  One word.  Plastics… There's a great future in plastics." This iconic line from the movie The Graduate is at the top of my mind when I think about where we are heading in healthcare. I've interpreted "plastics" as symbolizing a dystopian, mass-produced future of medicine—where artificiality and inauthenticity dominate in the pursuit of efficiency and profit margins. After listening to today's podcast on the growth of community-based palliative care, I find my perspective shifting on this quote. Perhaps the advice given for a future in plastics reflects the past generation's established worldview, failing to recognize a countercultural revolution seeking transformation and meaningful change, even if it may come across as a little brash. In this thought-provoking episode of the GeriPal podcast, we are joined by Alan Chiu (Chief of Palliative Care at Monogram Health), Mindy Stewart-Coffee (National Vice President of Palliative Care at Optum Home and Community), and Ben Thompson (National Medical Director for Hospice and Palliative Care at Gentiva) to discuss this revolution happening in palliative care. The conversation centers around the rapid growth and investment in community-based palliative care, which has emerged as a key area of innovation and opportunity to meet the largely unmet needs of patients living with serious illnesses. With a focus on expanding access, improving outcomes, and addressing workforce shortages, the guests explore how value-based care models are reshaping palliative care delivery. The discussion highlights the differences between traditional fee-for-service models and newer value-based care approaches, including how they incentivize care. We take a deep dive into the risks and benefits of these models, emphasizing the importance of maintaining high standards of care while fostering innovation. We also delve into the role of for-profit organizations and private equity in driving change, acknowledging concerns about motivations while recognizing that these entities can help spur innovation and improve access when led by clinicians committed to patient-centered care. Ultimately, this podcast serves as a call to action for the palliative care community to help shape not just the "Wild West" of community-based care, but palliative care 3.0 as a whole. Do we sit back and wait for a future dominated by a plastic version of palliative care, or do we help lead this revolution to ensure it maintains the authentic heart of what brought us to this field?  As Diane Meier aptly warns, "if you are not at the table, you're on the menu."
