Michael sits down with Laura Silver, Associate Director at the Pew Research Center, to unpack the state of trust and neighborly connections in America. Drawing on the latest 2025 Pew survey data, they explore whether Americans still trust most people, know their neighbors, or engage in simple acts of kindness like watering plants or making small talk in a grocery store. From the decline of local media to the rise of digital isolation, this episode covers why Americans report more willingness to help others than they expect in return, and what this says about the social fabric of the country. Is it a crisis of connection? Or a misperception of division? Tune in to find out—and maybe be inspired to knock on a neighbor's door. Original air date 19 May 2025.

A recent report from Pew Research Center analyzed how U.S. adults and tech experts feel about AI, finding areas where the two groups were widely apart and where there was consensus. In this episode, co-host Nicol Turner lee speaks with author of the study Monica Anderson from Pew about these opinions on AI and where these groups want to see more policies. Hosted on Acast.

By 2030, most adults, especially women, might be single for life. A study by Pew Research Center found that nearly 1 in 4 single adults may stay single for life. While that doesn't mean everyone is destined to be alone, it does reflect big cultural changes in dating, relationships, and partnership compared to 30 years ago. Cities like Boston are even ranked among the loneliest in America.Dr. Gabe sits down with Kristal Kleer and Desiree for a candid, eye-opening conversation about the future of relationships—specifically, the growing trend of lifelong singleness among Millennials and Gen Z. Need relationship advice?

Immediately after the murder of George Floyd, there were more people than ever drawing attention to issues of racial inequality and police treatment of Black people. A new Pew Research Center study finds that in the years since, Americans are skeptical that 2020 actually led to any significant change. Two people joined Minnesota Now to dig into the data. Kiana Cox is an author of the study and a senior researcher on the race and ethnicity team at the Pew Research Center and Yohuru Williams, founding director of the Racial Justice Initiative at the University of St. Thomas.

According to Pew Research Center, 55% of U.S. parents report being extremely or very concerned about the mental health of teens today. And several factors are driving that concern: increased influence of technology and social media, lingering effects of the pandemic, and social pressures like extracurricular activities and academic performance. Substance use is also linked with mental health and is occurring at younger ages with a rise in youth overdoses.  Mental health wellness and prevention programs from previous generations, some of which are still used today, have been ineffective or even counterproductive. So, what strategies actually work? In this episode of “After the Fact,” psychologists Obari Adéye Cartman and Sharon Hoover, as well as Pew's Jessica Roark, discuss how to improve youth mental health programs and address substance use.   If you or someone you know needs help with substance use, visit www.findtreatment.gov.

Today, almost 40 percent of American adults aged 25 to 54 are unpartnered—a major shift from just a generation ago, according to a 2021 Pew Research Center analysis of U.S. Census Bureau data. As marriage rates fall, researchers are exploring how economic independence, shifting cultural values and a rethinking of adulthood itself are reshaping what commitment looks like.

The Genesis creation narrative tells us that after creating humankind both male and female in His own image, God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it.” This creation mandate reveals God's intentions for His image-bearers. New research conducted by the Pew Research Center indicates that for today's teenagers ages thirteen to seventeen, getting married and having kids is not a top priority. In fact, eighty-six percent of the respondents say that it's extremely or very important for them to have a job or career they enjoy and which brings financial success when they reach adulthood. Only thirty-six percent said that they cared about getting married, and just thirty percent say it's important to have children. With the cultural tide moving in this direction, perhaps we need to do a better job of teaching about God's heart and design for the family, teaching them that having and raising children is a high privilege and high calling!

Tik Tok, the popular video-sharing site with more than 1.5 billion monthly active users worldwide, revolutionized the US app market, showing how social media could offer entertainment, short videos and shopping all in one place, say experts.专家表示，拥有全球超过15亿月活跃用户的热门短视频分享平台TikTok，彻底改变了美国应用市场格局，展示了社交媒体如何将娱乐、短视频与购物功能集于一身。"It certainly has brought something new to the US." Z, John Zhang, a professor of marketing at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania told China Daily.“它无疑给美国带来了新变化。”宾夕法尼亚大学沃顿商学院市场营销学教授张忠告诉《中国日报》。But despite the app's widespread success, it still faces uncertainty over a potential congressional ban signed by former US president Joe Biden in 2024, which states that ByteDance, its Chinese-based parent company, must divest the app and sell it to a US company or face a ban over national security concerns.尽管这款应用取得了广泛成功，但它仍面临一项不确定性：美国前总统乔·拜登在2024年签署的潜在国会禁令。该禁令规定，其中国母公司字节跳动必须剥离该应用并将其出售给一家美国公司，否则将因国家安全问题而面临禁用。In April, the Trump administration granted the app its second 75-day extension this year so that it could find a US buyer. The reprieve will expire in mid-June.今年4月，特朗普政府批准TikTok第二次75天延期，以便寻找美国买家。此次宽限期将于6月中旬到期。TikTok, available in 150 countries, was downloaded more than 875 million times in 2024. Its US revenue reached $10 billion in 2023, and American adults spend more than 53 minutes on it on average per day, two studies found.TikTok目前在150个国家或地区上线，2024年下载量超过8.75亿次。两项研究发现，其2023年美国营收达100亿美元，美国成年人平均每天使用时长超过53分钟。A spokesperson for ByteDance said in an April statement that it had "been in discussion with the US government regarding a potential solution for TikTok US. An agreement has not been executed. There are key matters to be resolved. Any agreement will be subject to approval under Chinese law."字节跳动一位发言人在4月份发表声明称，公司“一直在与美国政府讨论TikTok美国业务的潜在解决方案。目前尚未达成协议。仍有一些关键问题需要解决。任何协议均需根据中国法律获得批准。”TikTok CEO Shou Chew said in an April 22 video: "Rest assured we will do everything in our power to ensure our platform thrives as your online home…for years to come. There's tremendous value in this app, and if we close that, it will be a pity."TikTok首席执行官周受资在4月22日的一段视频中表示：“请放心，我们将竭尽全力确保我们的平台在未来数年内蓬勃发展，成为您的线上家园。这款应用拥有巨大的价值，如果被关闭将令人惋惜。”Launched in the US in 2018, TikTok quickly amassed more than 170 million American users, according to the Pew Research Center.据皮尤研究中心的数据，自2018年在美推出以来，TikTok迅速吸引了超过1.7亿美国用户Regardless of its future, it has changed social media and even spurred international competition.无论其未来如何，TikTok已经改变了社交媒体格局，并激发了国际竞争。Instagram, the picture-sharing site, owned by Facebook parent Meta, started its video platform Reels in 2020 in 50 countries, including the US, to compete with TikTok.Facebook母公司Meta旗下的图片分享网站Instagram于2020年在包括美国在内的50个国家或地区推出了其视频平台Reels，以与TikTok竞争。In April, Instagram launched its standalone "Edits Video" creation app. The platform will allow creators to shoot and edit video similar to TikTok or CapCut.今年4月，Instagram推出了独立的“Edits Video”创作应用。该平台将允许创作者拍摄和编辑类似于TikTok或CapCut的视频。"We think it's our job to create the most compelling creative tools for those of you who make videos," Adam Mosseri, head of Instagram, said in a Reels video statement in January.“我们认为，为视频创作者打造最有吸引力的创作工具，是我们的职责，”Instagram负责人亚当·莫塞里在1月份的Reels视频声明中表示。Another US offering that rivals the Chinese app is YouTube's Shorts, a platform to create and share short-form videos. Other Chinese-owned apps, such as RedNote and Lemon8, the latter owned by ByteDance—also are vying for attention over TikTok.另一个与这款中国应用竞争的美国产品是YouTube的Shorts，这是一个制作和分享短视频的平台。其他中国本土应用也在争夺用户注意力，例如RedNote和 字节跳动拥有的Lemon8。However, one of the most unique aspects of TikTok is that it works alongside businesses both locally and internationally to sell goods to customers on the app. That is something that was fairly unusual to US digital audiences beforehand.然而，TikTok最独特之处在于，它能在本地及国际范围内与商家合作，通过该应用向客户销售商品。这对于此前在美国数字平台上的受众来说相当罕见。It's estimated that there are more than 7 million US businesses on TikTok, which helped it support over $24 billion in gross domestic product and 224,000 American jobs, according to a report by Oxford Economics.据牛津经济研究院的报告估计，TikTok上有超过700万家美国企业，这帮助TikTok支撑了超过240亿美元的国内生产总值和22.4万个美国就业岗位。Felicia Jackson, owner of CPR Wrap, a business that helps people as they perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation, said that she made more than $300,000 in just two days thanks to the app.菲利西亚·杰克逊是CPR Wrap的老板，该公司致力于帮助人们进行心肺复苏，她说，得益于TikTok，她在短短两天内赚取了超过30万美元。The method of entertaining people and encouraging them to shop seamlessly in an app has been successful for Douyin, the domestic Chinese version of ByteDance's TikTok and JD, a Chinese e-commerce company owned by Tencent, with revenues of more than $152 billion in 2023.这种在娱乐中无缝推动购物的模式，在字节跳动旗下的国内版抖音，以及腾讯控股的电商公司京东上已被证明非常成功，京东2023年收入超过1520亿美元。Professor George S. Yip, emeritus professor, Imperial College London, and distinguished visiting professor at Northeastern University in Boston, said that TikTok has gained international popularity by following apps like Douyin.伦敦帝国理工学院名誉教授、波士顿东北大学杰出客座教授叶锦华表示，TikTok通过效仿抖音等应用程序获得了国际知名度。"The Chinese are very good at all-in-one apps, and [TikTok is] simply following that practice in the US," Yip told China Daily.叶锦华告诉《中国日报》：“中国人非常擅长开发一体化应用程序，而TikTok只是把这一实践带到了美国。”Smaller content creators and influencers who review or market merchandise from the TikTok shop also are making money and receiving commissions on goods sold.在TikTok商店评论或营销商品的小型内容创作者和影响者也在赚钱，并从销售的商品中获得佣金。"A lot of people would get hurt [if TikTok closes]," Zhang said. "There's no question, because there's a lot of influencers on TikTok, and they're doing really well, and they make a lot of money out of it."“如果TikTok关闭，很多人会受到影响，” 张忠教授说，“毫无疑问，因为TikTok上有很多网红，他们做得非常好，也从中赚了很多钱。”As TikTok continues to seek a US buyer to appease Washington, online retail giant Amazon was said to have thrown its hat in the ring, submitting a bid to the White House to buy it.随着TikTok继续寻找美国买家以安抚美国方面，有消息称电商巨头亚马逊已经加入了竞争，向白宫提交了收购申请。In an effort to update its safety features, Adam Presser, head of Operations and Trust and Safety at TikTok, described its latest innovation "Footnotes."为进一步提升安全性，TikTok运营和信任与安全部门主管亚当·普雷瑟介绍了其最新的创新功能“脚注”。"It will add to our suite of measures that help people understand the reliability of content and access authoritative sources, including our content labels, search banners, our fact-checking program, and more," Presser said in a statement.普雷瑟在一份声明中表示：“它将增强我们的一系列措施，帮助人们了解内容的可靠性并访问权威来源，这些措施包括我们的内容标签、搜索横幅、事实核查程序等等。”revolutionize/ˌrevəˈluːʃənaɪz/v.彻底改革，彻底改变cardiopulmonary resuscitation心肺复苏术seamlessly/ˈsiːmləsli/adv.无缝地，顺畅地fact-checking事实核查，信息查证

The latest Pew Research Center survey numbers of this White House's favor with the people are in and no surprise, Republicans by and large are loving President Donald Trump, while Democrats are not. Democrats are in lockstep on their hatred for Trump's policies. But America is back on track for a new age of golden politicking, including in foreign affairs. Shea Bradley Farrell, president of Counterpoint Institute, speaks from Hungary about the regard for Trump she's experiencing on the streets in Europe.

(AURN News) — As President Donald Trump gets ready to mark his first 100 days in office in his second term on April 30th, new polling data from the Pew Research Center shows a significant drop in public approval and growing resistance to his administration's sweeping policy changes. Trump's approval rating now stands at 40%, according to Pew, down seven points since February. The report attributes the slide to widespread disapproval of the president's continued use of executive actions and controversial policy moves. “Trump's current approval rating of 40% is on par with his rating at this point in his first term. It remains lower than other recent presidents' approval ratings in the early months of their presidencies,” Pew said in its report released this week. The poll also found that 59% of Americans disapprove of Trump's tariff increases, while 55% oppose his ongoing cuts to federal departments and agencies.  The report also highlights deep divisions over the role of the executive branch and its limits. Of those polled, 51% believe Trump is making too many policy changes through executive action, raising concerns about the balance of power in Washington. Pew also found that 78% of Americans believe the Trump administration would need to stop an action if a federal court says it's illegal. And 88% say the administration should have to follow a Supreme Court decision, reinforcing the public's expectation for constitutional checks on Mr. Trump's presidential authority. Pew's report also found that 78% of Republicans support Trump's move to end Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives in the federal government. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this week's episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Brian Kennedy, a senior researcher at the Pew Research Center. Kennedy focuses on science and society research, studying public attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs about science—including energy and environmental issues. Kennedy and a coauthor released survey results about US public opinion on climate change and related issues at the end of 2024. Kennedy discusses how the survey was conducted and shares his insights on the survey's findings, such as differences in public attitudes toward the clean energy transition; how partisanship is a powerful predictor of views on climate change, climate policy, and even perceptions of extreme weather events; and points of overlap at which Democrats and Republicans share support for certain climate and environmental policies and objectives.

Hey Strangers, #rust #american #ai AI experts are feeling pretty good about the future of their field. Most Americans are not.A new report from Pew Research Center released last week shows a sharp divide in how artificial intelligence is perceived by the people building it versus the people living with it. The survey includes responses from over 1,000 AI experts and more than 5,000 US adults, revealing a growing optimism gap: experts are hopeful, while the public is anxious, distrustful, and increasingly uneasy.=======================================Go to the pizza partyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWIgGxr4VXk&t=42s**************************************************My other podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw**************************************************article links:https://www.wired.com/story/your-boss-wants-you-back-in-the-office-this-surveillance-tech-could-be-waiting-for-you/======================================Today is for push-ups and Programming, and I am all done doing push-ups Discordhttps://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxqTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoderYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@codingwithstrangersTwitchhttps://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangersTwitterhttps://twitter.com/strangestcoderBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/strangestcoder.bsky.socialmerchSupport CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

Little Man, Big ChangeLuke 19:1-10Teacher: Blaine Dennison, Congregational Care Pastor at Oak Pointe ChurchA study performed in 2021 by the Pew Research Center revealed that 41% of Americans have experienced some form of harassment online, with 75% of those saying the abuse took place on social media. It's clear that communication between humans has been impacted significantly by the internet, and not always in the best way. Online interactions don't allow human connection because the person at the other end of the sentence is just a screen. When humanity is reduced to an object, then anything goes.During His earthly ministry, Jesus looked into eyes, touched with His hand, held with His arms, and spoke with His voice. Today He speaks into our hearts through His word, and now we are His hands and feet that deliver His message to others. The Word of Life breaks barriers and defenses and invites outsiders to come in and sit at His table.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Legal reporter Jeremy Sharon and archaeology reporter Rossella Tercatin join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Yesterday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused police of holding two aides “hostage” after they were arrested over their alleged engagement in illicit ties with Qatar while working for the premier, who interrupted his ongoing corruption trial to provide testimony in the controversial Qatargate investigation. Sharon delves into the latest developments. The High Court of Justice ruled unanimously on Thursday that Israel has taken a variety of steps to provide for the humanitarian needs of Gaza’s civilian population during the current war with Hamas, and that there was no cause for the court to order the government and the army to take any additional action. We hear why this ruling is important in the context of other accusations against Israel on the international stage. The IDF issued a statement on Monday night announcing that it had disciplined several officers and troops for vandalizing Palestinian property in Jinba after an investigation it conducted into the incident. Villagers claim that troops had stood by while the settler extremists attacked residents and prevented a Red Crescent ambulance from evacuating the wounded. IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir went to Jinba himself to investigate the incident on Sunday, as did Sharon. He reports back. Almost one in four US adults who were raised Jewish no longer identify as such, a new report by the prominent Pew Research Center released on Wednesday has shown. The report focuses on the phenomenon of “switching religions” around the world, and it is based on data obtained by polling almost 37,000 Americans and over 41,000 individuals in 35 other countries, including Israel. Tercatin gives highlights. For the first time, a team of Israeli archaeologists has uncovered ancient artifacts at northern Israel’s “Armageddon” site that might offer proof of an epic battle documented in the books of Kings II and Chronicles between a king of Judah and an Egyptian pharaoh. We hear how the old adage "an army marches on its stomach" may give us insight into this historical battle. Please see today's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

El presidente Donald Trump designó el inglés como idioma oficial de los Estados Unidos el 1 de marzo, como parte de su agenda America First (América primero). La orden supone una victoria para el English-only movement (movimiento sólo inglés) y organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro que forma parte de este movimiento como ProEnglish, que ha sido designada como grupo de odio por el Southern Poverty Law Center. El 78 por ciento de las personas mayores de 5 años sólo hablan inglés en casa en los Estados Unidos, según cifras del Pew Research Center, y desde hace tiempo se exige a los inmigrantes que demuestren su dominio de la lengua antes de obtener la ciudadanía. Así que para hablar sobre las percepciones de los estadounidenses sobre la importancia del idioma inglés como idioma oficial del país, invitamos a Mark Hugo Lopez, coautor del artículo corto y director de investigación sobre raza y etnicidad en el Pew Research Center.

Fully 53 percent of Pew Research Center respondents said there were too few American women in politics. What do you think? What's clear is that there are too few women holding Republican Party offices. When you look at the data and break down the figures, whether it's federal, state or municipal offices, fact is Democrats outnumber Republicans when it comes to women office-holders. This trend needs to change. Rep. Lisa McClain is the House Republican Conference chair and the highest ranking woman in House Republican leadership, and she has quite a bit to say about the state of the nation, the state of Democrats, the state of the leftist attacks on President Donald Trump and more — and all in time for Women's History Month.

Much has been said and written about the decline of Christianity in America, including on this podcast. But is something changing? A new Pew Research Center study shows that the decline of Christianity has tapered off over the past few years. In this episode, we dig into the statistics and analyze the opportunities they present for Christians to be on mission.(0:00) Introductions(1:05) The Data Shows…De-Churching Is Leveling Off(7:50) Some of Our Favorite Research Study Nuggets(12:13) How to Make Sense of This as Church Leaders(24:10) The ONE Thing We Want You to Take with YouArticle: https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2025/02/26/decline-of-christianity-in-the-us-has-slowed-may-have-leveled-off/

The latest report from the Pew Research Center not only helps us understand where our teens ages thirteen to seventeen are spending time online, but should light a fire under us to exercise diligence and regularity about helping our teens practice what we call digital discipleship. It's not surprising that YouTube is hands down the most used online platforms for kids, with nine out of ten saying they use the site. Seventy three percent of our thirteen to seventeen year olds say they visit YouTube daily. Six in ten say they visit the TikTok video site daily. With our kids consuming so much video content on a daily basis, we need to teach them to use wisdom and discernment regarding what they see, along with limiting the amount of time they spend scrolling through videos. Ask them about what they are seeing. Ask them to share what they see with you. And train them to embrace content that furthers their faith, while avoiding that which is not good, true, and honorable.

It's been 5 years since COVID-19 began rapidly spreading around the world. A Pew Research study surveyed almost 10,000 Americans, and 72% of respondents said the pandemic drove the country apart. Pew Research Center's Alec Tyson shares the impact of this political divide. And, millions of people lost loved ones to COVID-19.

About 120,000 immigrants lacking permanent legal status live in Oregon, according to a 2022 estimate from the Pew Research Center. The state has sanctuary laws in place, meaning that state and local resources are not used for federal immigration enforcement. Law enforcement officials in places including Marion, Polk and Jackson counties have told local media outlets they will continue to follow state laws on immigration enforcement.  Still, immigrant communities face uncertainty as policies change at the federal level. Kathy Keesee is a program coordinator for Unete, a nonprofit in Jackson County that advocates for agricultural workers and immigrants. She joins us with details. 

Episode 185: Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada discuss a paradox in America — that even as formal religious participation declines, belief in the supernatural remains remarkably strong. According to data from the Pew Research Center, 86% of Americans believe in the existence of a soul or spirit, 83% believe in God or a universal spirit and 70% believe in an afterlife. These findings suggest that while fewer people identify with organized religion, the human need for spiritual and supernatural explanations persists. "It seems to go deep in human nature," Kyte said. "Human beings want answers to why questions like, 'Why am I here? What's the purpose of my life?'" Kyte explained that while science has provided explanations for many of the "how" questions, religion continues to play a role in addressing the deeper "why" questions that science cannot fully answer. This desire for meaning and purpose beyond the physical world appears to be a fundamental part of the human experience. The discussion also explored the role of religion in providing community, support and a sense of purpose, particularly during difficult times. Kyte emphasized the importance of religious practices and rituals in helping individuals develop the habits and disciplines necessary for a "meaningful life." About the hosts Scott Rada is a digital strategist with Lee Enterprises, and Richard Kyte is the director of the D.B. Reinhart Institute for Ethics in Leadership at Viterbo University in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

In this week's episode, BPC Senior Advisor Theresa Cardinal Brown sits down with Robert Warren from the Center for Migration Studies, Jeffrey Passel from the Pew Research Center, and Jennifer Van Hook from the Migration Policy Institute to discuss methodologies used to estimate the unauthorized immigrant population, the recent trends in those estimates, and how they are used and understood (or misunderstood) in public policy debates.  Center for Migration Studies: US Undocumented Population Increased to 11.7 Million in July 2023: Provisional CMS Estimates Derived from CPS Data - https://cmsny.org/us-undocumented-population-increased-in-july-2023-warren-090624/  Pew Research Center: What we know about unauthorized immigrants living in the U.S. - https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/07/22/what-we-know-about-unauthorized-immigrants-living-in-the-us/  MPI: The Unauthorized Immigrant Population Expands amid Record U.S.-Mexico Border Arrivals - https://www.migrationpolicy.org/news/unauthorized-immigrant-population-mid-2023

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the recent release of Pew Research Center's Religious Landscape Study. Last conducted in 2014, the 2023-24 study surveyed more than 35,000 Americans concerning their religious affiliations, their beliefs, and their practices. It is simply the largest and most significant study of its kind in terms of getting a snapshot of where our country is on all things spirituality and religion, and the current health of the American Church. The findings go far beyond what some of the headlines from this study would suggest. Episode Links Dr. White released a recent blog on this topic titled “The Stall of the Nones” - the “nones” being the group who identifies as having no religious affiliation. Their numbers have been rising for decades, yet seem to have reached a leveling-off point. (We'd encourage you to check out his book on this subject that was discussed in today's episode titled The Rise of the Nones.) Dr. White mentioned a recent New York Times article titled “Christianity's Decline in U.S. Appears to Have Halted, Major Study Shows” which latches onto that finding from the study. The more notable takeaway from the study that seems to have been overlooked is the fact that the number of people who would identify as Christian continues to decline - from 78% in 2007 to 62% in 2024. That decline is stunning. As Dr. White noted from the Christianity Today article titled “Pew: America Is Spiritual but Not Religious,” six people have left Christianity for every one who has joined. That is certainly not sustainable. Dr. White stressed the importance of reaching the younger generations for Jesus, and the fact that a solid children's ministry is a vitally important component. He wrote a blog on this topic titled “The Most Important Sub-Ministry In Your Church” that would be worth reading if you missed it.

A new poll from the Pew Research Center indicates that the decline of Christianity in the U.S. has slowed. Churches across the U.S. say they have lost members over the past century, indicating a larger trend of declining religious life in the United States. Greg Smith, the Pew Research Center senior associate director, and Penny Edgell, a professor of sociology at the University of Minnesota and an advisor to this study, joined Minnesota Now to talk about the poll's results.

Pew Research Center findings show many parents and teens think it’s harder being a teen today than it was 20 years ago. They point to technology, especially social media, as having a particularly negative impact on teen life. But how can parents and members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ease the pressures on today’s youth and help them to flourish during their teen years? Laura Padilla-Walker, dean of Family, Home and Social Sciences at Brigham Young University, has pondered this question in her research as she focuses on parenting and media influences during adolescence and young adulthood. Padilla-Walker joins this episode of the Church News podcast to help parents and leaders discover how positive behaviors can both replace and protect against negative behaviors and how sacred living strategies can help families stay stronger and happier.  The Church News Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners to make a journey of connection with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints across the globe. Hosts Jon Ryan Jensen, editor of the Church News, and Church News reporter Mary Richards share unique views of the stories, events, and people who form this international faith. With each episode, listeners are asked to embark on a journey to learn from one another and ponder, “What do I know now?” because of the experience. Produced by KellieAnn Halvorsen.

More people are living longer. According to Pew Research Center, within the next 30 years, the population of Americans age 100 and over is expected to increase more than fourfold. With an aging population, how will the stages of our lives shift and expand? In this episode from 2019, Andrew Scott, longevity expert and economics professor at the London Business School, discusses what individuals and society can consider about the challenges and opportunities of living longer for. One upside, Scott says, is “this gift of time” means that people will be younger for longer

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy explores the evolving dynamics between parents and grandparents in child-rearing practices.

The discussion delves into the idea of the "village" concept in parenting, contrasting past attitudes with present-day practices. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own familial relationships and the importance of intergenerational support in raising children.
