We welcome Moody's Mark Zandi, Moody's Chief Economist and one of the most influential and trusted macroeconomic voices shaping markets, policy, and business strategy worldwide. Zandi begins by explaining how today's consumer landscape is defined by a widening K-shaped economy—an income and wealth split decades in the making and now intensified by rising asset values and post-pandemic dynamics. Households at the top of the income spectrum are spending freely, while middle-class consumers remain pressured and those at the bottom struggle to keep up, borrowing to sustain purchases.Zandi also connects the affordability crisis to structural issues like housing supply, wage pressures, labor shortages, and the unpredictable impact of tariffs—which are simultaneously slowing job creation, lifting inflation, and clouding retailers' pricing strategies. He warns that delayed tariff pass-through may soon accelerate and that upcoming legal decisions could radically alter retail margins.Perhaps most striking is Zandi's analysis of AI's fingerprints on the labor market. He highlights rapidly rising unemployment among younger workers and the risk that productivity gains arrive faster than hiring can adjust—potentially tipping the economy toward recession just as retail faces profit pressure, concentration of growth among a handful of giants, and shifts in category performance.Before joined by Zandi, Steve and Michael dig into the retail headlines: strong BFCM e-commerce results , Buy Now Pay Later surging again, and evidence that AI-driven traffic is now materially influencing online demand. They examine the evolving performance of dollar stores, with Five Below delivering standout comps, the ongoing stampede to value, and whether the end of de minimis rules may reshape the bargain landscape.They then break down Macy's mixed but improving traction, tariff lawsuits led by Costco, and the broader retail question of whether top-line growth is increasingly profitless prosperity—a theme reinforced by margins squeezed across beauty, off-price, and specialty retail formats.In a quick recap of the most remarkable stories of the week Steve is stunned that Meta still invests heavily in the metaverse—even while shrinking budgets Michael questions whether defunct brands like Bed Bath & Beyond can meaningfully return in the Canadian retail market dominated by TJX, HomeSense, and IKEA.Expect the annual game of holiday discount chicken to intensify as promotions escalate, plus intriguing experiments like Netflix House in former department-store spaces—potentially hinting at new opportunities for mall real estate.

Animal hoarders acquire and live with dozens or even hundreds of creatures in their homes, causing suffering for both the hoarder and the animals.

#666: In this First Friday economic update, we explore the paradox defining our current economy: record-breaking retail numbers alongside plummeting consumer confidence. In this First Friday economic update, we explore the paradox defining our current economy: we're spending more than ever, while feeling worse about money than we have in years. The Bureau of Labor Statistics hasn't released jobs data for two consecutive months. The Federal Reserve must make a critical interest rate decision flying blind. Meanwhile, private sector data reveals troubling trends. Small businesses are hemorrhaging jobs while discount chains like Dollar General see their stock prices soar 44%. Americans are spending differently this holiday season. They're shopping earlier, using AI to find deals, and turning to buy-now-pay-later options. Households are spending less than last year, yet total spending increases because more people are participating. This K-shaped recovery benefits luxury retailers and bargain stores while crushing the middle market. We also cover essential year-end financial moves. From maximizing retirement contributions to tax-loss harvesting strategies, we help you navigate your personal finances amid economic uncertainty. The disconnect between what the numbers say – and how people feel – reveals deeper truths about an economy that's technically growing while leaving many behind.

All Shall Be Well: Conversations with Women in the Academy and Beyond
“If at all possible, resist the dehumanizing forces that are at work in grad school and in the early days of your academic employment.” — Emily Hunter McGowin Theologian and professor Emily Hunter McGowin joins us on the podcast to discuss the nature of family in the context of God's kingdom. How can we live as faithful followers of Jesus within our complex family narratives? Author and theologian Emily Hunter McGowin joins us on the podcast to discuss her recent book Households of Faith: Practicing Family in the Kingdom of God. Emily helps us to interrogate the cultural assumptions we bring into the work of family life and to consider them in light of the words of Scripture. She asserts that the Bible is far from prescriptive about the details of household life and that Scripture makes space for a variety of shapes and structures that support family connectedness. Emily challenges her readers to think carefully about the integration of community needs with personal flourishing, and she offers simple suggestions for integrating nourishing habits into the complex fabric of family life. In addition — I'm pleased to tell you that InterVarsity Press is offering a discount on Households of Faith for listeners of this podcast. Just use the code IVPWSAP25 for 25% off and free shipping when you purchase the book at ivpress.com. You can find a link to the book and the discount code in the show notes.

@BEOYouth | Today's discussion focused one what effect does not have two parents have on a child?
Australia could soon be throwing away huge amounts of renewable energy simply because there's nowhere for it to go. It's partly why the Federal government has announced its Solar Sharer scheme – a way for households to mop up free, excess electricity for 3 hours in the middle of the day. But is Australia in danger of building a high-renewables grid that leans too heavily on households to solve structural problems? Long-time consumer energy advocate and Senior Advisor with the Justice and Equity Centre, Craig Memery, argues large industrial loads, not households, could be doing more of the heavy lifting on demand flexibility. He warns that renters, shift workers and anyone who can't move their energy use to the middle of the day could end up subsidising those who can. And he champions energy efficiency as the overlooked “no-brainer” that cuts bills, emissions and peak demand for everyone.

On this week's Inside Business, host Ciarán Hancock is joined in studio by senior lecturer in housing at TUD Dublin, Lorcan Sirr.The episode starts with some recent good news, that the net wealth of Irish households is nearly €1.3 trillion, or an average of €228,000 each.Sounds good but as Lorcan explains, this is an illusion. He argues that Ireland isn't really a wealthy country in spite of what the statistics tell us. Lorcan also touches on the housing crisis in its many forms and goes through some possible solutions. And he does have some solutions. He also explains why he thinks judicial reviews of planning decisions haven't caused the housing crisis. Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound.

Proverbs 17:1–2 contrasts two powerful realities: the quiet strength of a peaceful home and the disruptive force of strife, even in houses filled with abundance. A single dry crust with peace is better than a feast soaked in conflict. And wisdom elevates a servant above a shameful son, showing that God honors character over position. In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart uncover these timeless truths, calling listeners to cultivate peace, pursue wisdom, and recognize that God exalts the faithful—regardless of status or circumstance.

Next year the short-term letting industry is expected to get a massive overhaul in an attempt to combat the housing crisis. New rules are set to be introduced on May 20, 2026, and yesterday legislation faced pre-legislative scrutiny at the Oireachtas committee on enterprise, tourism and employment. As reported by the Irish Independent, one woman spoke at the committee about how these new rules will cripple her income as it has been a lifeline for her family. Lorna Cahill has been renting out a granny flat in Co Clare for the last nine years and she joined Pat on the show.

1 in 4 households are living paycheck-to-paycheck. Why are so American families struggling? How have the last couple years been for you? We break down this new report with Joe Wadford, an economist with the Bank of America Institute
Households aren't just about who shares your last name—they're about the people who share your life. In this episode of The GoodKind Podcast, Clayton, Amy, and Chris dig into the idea of “household” as Andy Crouch describes it: a web of relationships that offers belonging, responsibility, and formation in a world that often feels disconnected.From college dorm “communes” to hosting friends who become family, the hosts explore what it really means to live deeply with others. They unpack why modern life makes communal living feel strange, how technology has shaped us into isolated “pixels,” and why the Bible presents a much more connected vision of people bound together by trust and consequence.Whether you're longing for deeper community, curious about living more intentionally with the people around you, or simply wondering if your friend-who's-basically-an-aunt counts as part of your household, this conversation will help you imagine a richer, more rooted way of life.Takeaways:A “household” is more than a family—it's a group of people who share life, trust, and responsibility.Technology can flatten our relationships into interactions without consequence.The Bible describes people as interconnected, like a net—distinct but bound together.Hospitality is one of the simplest ways to rebuild household-like rhythms.Deep community doesn't always require sharing a roof, but it does require shared presence and vulnerability.You can take small, intentional steps toward creating a modern household right where you are.Resources & Products Mentioned:The Life We're Looking For – Andy Crouch's exploration of households and human flourishing.The Gospel Comes With a House Key – Rosaria Butterfield on hospitality and biblical community.
John Blank and Eric Winograd cover the impact of the U.S. government shutdown on households and what the Fed might decide to do in December. Eric previews the September jobs report we will see later this week, though he notes the shutdown had not begun yet and we won't see the impact yet. He thinks the October payrolls could be an “outright negative” number. John covers delays on IPOs and thinks some listings may be shelved as a potential bottleneck forms.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

This one hits where it hurts: the living room. We dig into how money actually moves in multi-generational, first-gen Hispanic households during the holidays when everyone has an opinion and nobody wants to say the quiet part out loud. Daniela Molina joins me to cut through the noise with straight talk on culture, pressure, and breaking money taboos. We start with reality. Different generations carry different money scripts, and when the saver, the spender, and the “I don't even know” all live under one roof, small choices turn into family politics. Daniela lays out how to start real conversations without shaming your elders, how to share what you're learning without posturing, and how to reframe the holidays so love is the priority—not debt. Then we torch a few lazy hot takes. “Cut off your family to get ahead” sounds bold online, but it ignores culture and context. “Debt is always bad” is just wrong. We separate clickbait from facts and talk about how to consume media like an adult: verify sources, look for methodology, and stop outsourcing your brain to headlines. We also get tactical: setting boundaries when relatives hit you up for cash, protecting your personal life if you work in media or client-facing roles, and expanding your reach with bilingual content—even if you don't speak Spanish—by partnering, translating key one-pagers, and focusing on genuinely useful advice. Holiday season is when budgets blow up and resentment festers. Not this year. Listen in, get your plan tight, and keep your dignity intact.

Almost 200 Clare households contacted a housing charity focused on preventing homelessness between the months of July and September. Threshold has revealed that it worked with a total of 187 households in this county in the third quarter of this year and prevented 24 from becoming homeless. Its latest Impact Report states that the number of renters who've made contact with the service has risen by over 20% in the last year. Threshold National Advocacy Manager Ann-Marie O'Reilly says there's a growing feeling of insecurity among renters.
What can destroy a household? Proverbs 19:13–15 looks forward to the midweek sermon. In these three verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that a household may be destroyed by any one of its members being a fool. The devotional meditates upon the sacred architecture of the household, emphasizing that godly wisdom and character are essential to its stability and flourishing. Central to this vision is the contrast between the ruin caused by a foolish son, a contentious wife, or a lazy individual, as opposed to the divine blessing of a prudent wife, whose wisdom is not merely human achievement but a gift from YHWH. The text underscores that while material inheritance comes from fathers, true spiritual and relational wealth—especially in marriage and parenting—are special displays of God's sovereign grace in the cultivation of godly character. It calls for diligent, joyful labor as an act of worship, rejecting laziness not only as personal failure but as a corrosive force that undermines the entire household. Ultimately, the devotional affirms that the health of the family rests not on human effort alone, but on divine provision: grace, and the faithful application of biblical wisdom in every relationship and responsibility.
In September of 2025, the Utah Foundation – a partnerorganization that I have respected for years – published a report titled, “Households and Heritages: How Family Health Hooks into Social Capital.” The report begins with a statement that aligns with Latter-day Saint beliefs: “Family is the basic building block of society and a core component of social capital. Stable families provide ways for children to socialize and develop emotionally and intrinsically. The larger community benefits from this stability, especially when family connections are strong.” This report provides some results that are a little surprising in terms of Utah's ranking in reading to your children, screentime, eating dinner together, and overall time spent with the family.

Wisconsin is getting more and more interest from data center developers. It's not new to the state. Michael Greif, fellow with the Midwest Environmental Advocates says that information transparency is critical for residents near these centers. He says knowing where power lines will be located is particularly important since utilities have been using "imminent domain" to secure land for power towers. Another nice sunny day for Wisconsin. Stu Muck says although the weather's breezy and dry, some of our remaining corn and soybean fields aren't drying down. Volume has picked up again with sales listings at the Steffes Group.
