It's Tuesday, September 23rd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes and heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  Filling in for Adam McManus, I'm Ean Leppin. By Kevin Swanson 200,000 people attend Charlie Kirk's funeral The New York Post reported 200,000 attending Charlie Kirk's funeral on Sunday afternoon in Phoenix. Turning Point USA's national spokesperson Andrew Kolvet, reported  “over 100 million overall streams for today's tribute to Charlie.” To compare, 100,000 people joined the funeral procession for Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968, and 18,000 attended the Michael Jackson memorial in 2009. Franklin Graham: Charlie Kirk's assassin bullet inspired more bold voices for truth Franklin Graham told the Christian Post over the weekend that Charlie's assassin wanted to shut Charlie up,  but “just the opposite effect is taking place.” Franklin says he hopes this will “raise up an army of young people who will take a stand for Jesus Christ, who are not afraid to speak out and not afraid that they're going to be attacked or accused. We have to take a stand and be open to the truth and not be afraid to speak the truth.” Chris Tomlin: Erika Kirk's forgiveness of killer revealed true Christianity Recording artist Chris Tomlin who performed at the funeral was also interviewed by The Christian Post and had this to say about the event. TOMLIN: "For Jesus to be proclaimed so boldly throughout the whole day by everyone, basically, was, what? An awakening moment in our nation.  It feels like that.  It feels like a shift, right?  It feels like this real awakening that so many people have been praying for.  I was thinking about it today.  "I think Erika's words of forgiveness, probably the words heard around the world.  That simple moment of 'I forgive' was more than anybody could say.  You can preach all you want, but when you see something like that, when you see the true essence of the Spirit of God in somebody; that can only come from the Spirit of God, right?  That kind of forgiveness.  "We can forgive for a lot of things, but that kind of forgiveness can only come from something that somebody who really walks with God.  And for people to see that and witness that -- what a moment around the world.  I think so many people came to faith.  And I pray it's an awakening in this nation." 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, "If My people who are called by My name humble themselves, and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land." 2025 U.S. fiscal year deficit reaches $2 trillion The 2025 U.S. fiscal year deficit has reached $2 trillion, reports Fox News. The monthly deficit exceeded that of the 2024 deficit for eleven months in a row.  This spending deficit occurred despite an additional $350 billion in tariff collections — the highest in recorded history. Several nations now recognize the Palestinian State As of Monday, The United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Portugal and France have officially recognized the Palestinian state, reports the BBC.  These nations join about 75% of United Nations members.  Only the United States and Panama have yet to follow suit in the Americas.  Trump on new H1-B visa applications President Donald Trump announced last week that the new H1-B visa applications for companies to hire foreign workers would be required to pay a fee of $100,000, reports The Guardian. India's economy takes about $135 billion from the H1-B visa program —  96% of H1-B visas are issued to Chinese and Indian workers - about 3% of the nation's Gross Domestic Product. Pew Research Center: Key concern for homeschooling parents is “negative peer pressure” Pew Research Center finds the key concern for homeschooling parents are “negative peer pressure” for 83% of homeschoolers — and “dissatisfaction with academic instruction” for 72% of parents. Only 53% of homeschooling parents want to “provide religious instruction” for their children.  Unlike Charlie Kirk, Trump confessed he hates his opponents The major media has noted that President Donald Trump had set himself apart from Charlie Kirk in his comments at the memorial service Monday. The President said of Charlie that “He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them.” Then, he told the crowd, “That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent. And I don't want the best for them.” His comments contrasted greatly with Erika Kirk' willingness to forgive the assassin of her husband. Jesus said, “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, 'Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in Heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust." (Matthew 5:43-45). Tyler Robinson's next court appearance set for September 29th Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin Tyler Robinson's next court appearance is set for September 29th - next Monday at which point the judge will determine if prosecutors have enough evidence for him to stand trial. Prosecutors have announced they will seek the death penalty in the case. The last person to be put to death in Utah was Joseph Mitchell Parsons in 1999. There are still nine prisoners on death row in the state of Utah — some as long as 31 years. However, there were 100 murders recorded in Utah just last year. Romans 13:3-4 reminds us “For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.  For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.” Gold Continues to Climb Gold is still on its way up, reaching $3,748 per ounce on Monday, while silver made a record high of $44 per ounce.  Young men leaving the Democratic Party And finally, The Hill reports that young men are leaving the Democratic Party — among white young men, that's dropped off from 49% to 29%, and for non-white young men — a drop off of 66% to 54%.  Non-white young women Democratic registrations remain at 75%, and white young women Democratic registrations have held steady at 47%.

Americans are increasingly anxious about artificial intelligence (AI), with a recent Pew Research Center study revealing that 50% of participants express more concern than excitement regarding AI's growing presence in daily life. This marks a significant rise from 37% in 2021. The study highlights skepticism about AI's impact on creativity and interpersonal relationships, with many believing it could worsen creative thinking and negatively affect human connections. This growing anxiety underscores the need for better understanding and control over AI applications in society.In the workplace, AI is reshaping learning and development, with organizations in the US, UK, Australia, and New Zealand increasing their budgets for these initiatives. A report from LearnUpon indicates that 43% of learning leaders fear AI could fully replace their roles, while 40% anticipate partial changes due to AI disruption. Despite the investment in learning and development, there is a palpable tension as employees question whether AI will ultimately assist or displace them, raising concerns about trust and stability in the workplace.Meanwhile, NVIDIA's recent $100 billion investment in OpenAI has sparked discussions about the stability of the AI market. This investment is part of a larger trend where major tech firms are projected to invest over $325 billion in AI data centers globally. However, the cycle of capital and chips raises questions about real demand versus artificial demand, as the investment appears to be a circular loop that could lead to instability if market conditions change. Providers are advised to focus on building value through governance and integration rather than relying solely on AI infrastructure costs.A wave of new vendor launches, including Acronis, Hexnode, and CloudRadial, highlights a trend towards automation and consolidation in the industry. These companies are introducing solutions that integrate security, backup, and management functions to simplify operations for managed service providers (MSPs). As MSPs begin to take on vendor roles themselves, the emphasis is on creating efficiencies and better governance to enhance client relationships. The overarching theme is that while technology evolves, the real differentiation for providers will come from how they implement and govern these tools to deliver meaningful business outcomes. Three things to know today00:00 Pew Finds Americans More Worried Than Excited About AI as Workplace and Research Risks Mount05:10 Nvidia's $100B Bet on OpenAI Fuels Data Center Boom—But Risks a Circular Spending Loop07:52 Vendors Race to Simplify MSP Stack With Security, AI, and Automation—While Netrio Proves Providers Can Be Builders Too This is the Business of Tech.   Supported by:  https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorshiphttps://mailprotector.com/ Webinar:   https://bit.ly/msprmail All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Matthew 18:21-22Then Peter came and said to him, “Lord, if my brother or sister sins against me, how often should I forgive? As many as seven times?” Jesus said to him, “Not seven times, but, I tell you, seventy times seven. I loathe physical therapy. Thanks to having the back of someone 3x my age, I have been quite a few times in the last ten years. Everytime I go, I am paired with a guy about my same age but who is in impeccable physical condition, which already makes me feel worse. Then they put me through a circuit of ridiculous exercises, things with bands, an impossible balancing board, and stretches that make me feel like something could snap at any moment. Exasperated, after throwing a ball against the wall while balancing on one leg, I asked, ‘What in the world does this have to do with making my back feel better?!' My therapist said, ‘Your low back is weak. We can strengthen it some, but not much. Instead, if we focus on everything else around your low back, your hips, your core, your flexibility, then the pain will start to go away, but not entirely. You'll be able to function, just not fully; your discs are too damaged. So focusing solely on your low back will never bring the healing you want. You have to focus on everything else around it.”Now talking about my woes with physical therapy may seem like a non sequitur to the final question in our series: How do we hold on to our shared humanity in a divided world? But I promise it will come back around. So stay with me. One thing among many I have loved about this series, Asking for a Friend, is that all of the questions have been timely; relevant not just to our life together, but to much that is happening in the world around us. Today's question is one we all want an answer to. The questioner had more context: they said, “as we get more and more divided, it seems like faith communities are pushing further and further to the extremes. In doing so, we lose the ability to see our shared humanity. What do we do? How do we move forward”? Division and conflict have become a staple of American life. And that's not just an anecdote, though I am sure you have your own story. According to Pew Research Center, compared to similar nations,we Americans hold much deeper divisions within nearly every facet of society: politics, race, and even agreement on basic facts. Ironically enough, polarization is now a defining feature of these United States.Faith communities are no different, especially along partisan lines. These days it's more likely that the way someone votes determines what church they attend than their theological views. Which means, more churches are becoming homogenous in their political beliefs, more people are leaving churches from political partisanship, and there are fewer and fewer purple congregations. For the most part, churches are not sorting themselves, they are already sorted. And in just the past two weeks, headlines have piled up calling this moment an inflection point—a crisis. It sure feels like it. Unity? Seeing our shared humanity? It seems nearly impossible—for churches, for the nation, let alone the warring parts of the world. So what do we do? I think we, as a church, go about unity like physical therapy.It may sound counterintuitive, but if unity is the goal, don't focus on it. If we insist on “being united”, if we tell ourselves and others, “we are a united congregation,” we won't be—and everyone will end up disappointed, or worse.Dietrich Bonhoeffer once wrote, “He who is in love with his vision of community will destroy community. But he who loves the people around him will create community wherever he goes.” The same is true of unity. If we love the idea of unity more than the people in front of us, we'll never achieve it. This is exactly what allows a group like Zeitouna to exist. Zeitouna is a group of six Jewish and six Palestinian women who, despite deep divisions, have learned to see each other's shared humanity. For over twenty years, they have gathered in each others' homes every other week, sharing dinner, and engaging in intentional Dialogue. They listen not to formulate a response, but to understand the other's point of view. Their goal is not to come to an agreement. How could they? Instead, they work on creating shared understanding—by listening, speaking from their own experience, slowing down, and pausing more. They focused on so many other things, not just the issues. And only then were they able to see one another for what they truly are, human. Irene, a Jewish member, said, “My heart has been opened to those who scare me.” Wadad, a Palestinian member, said, “Through Zeitouna I've learned to hear the voice of the ‘other'—her pain and her joy—realizing it mirrors my own.” They never chased unity itself. They focused on other things, and unity formed along the way.Instead of chasing unity, let's focus on our shared humanity, on forgiveness, and on grace.Now, in the church we love to say that every person is made in the image of God. And that is true. But if we stop there, we can fool ourselves into thinking that image means we are inherently good, virtuous, capable. Scripture, and our experience, say otherwise. Paul reminds us that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” The image of God in us is real, but like funhouse mirrors, it is fractured and distorted. So what do we share, really? We share our limits. We share our failures. We share our tendency to mess things up and let each other down. Our weakness, not our strength, is our common ground. And friends, that might sound like bad news, but it is actually quite the opposite. Because when you stop expecting other people to be more virtuous, more stable, or more capable than you are—you find yourself a little less disappointed. A little more patient. A little more compassionate. It frees us to meet one another not with unrealistic expectations but with grace. But that also means we will need to forgive, and to do so often. Like Peter, we ask “how often”? More than we want to, more than what seems right, honestly more than we think we can. Because it's not so much that someone will wrong you 490 times, but that it might take 490 attempts at forgiving one offense before we've really done it. All of that is hard. Which means, if we are going to see our shared humanity, forgive one another, and live as a functioning community, it will only be out of gratitude for the grace of Jesus, who has already done all of that for you and always will. When we dwell on the grace poured into our lives, it spills over—flowing from our hearts out into the world, giving others the mercy and love Jesus has already given us.Just like physical therapy, if unity is the goal, focusing on it will only lead to more pain, disappointment, and ultimately division. Because we will, and likely already have, let each other down. But I am asking you to stay. Stay even when there's disagreement, stay when feelings are hurt, stay when it feels easier to walk away. Because if we leave every time, we miss what Jesus is capable of through forgiveness and grace. So let's focus on those things now: on shared humanity, on forgiveness, on the grace already given to us. And then by the mercy of God and the work of the Spirit, unity will begin to take shape. It may not be perfect. The pain may not entirely go away. But we will be able to function. We will be able to live together as God's people. And we will have hope for the unity that is to come to all people, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

A vigil was held at Arizona State University for Charlie Kirk, conservative influencer and founder of Turning Point USA, after his assassination on September 10th. His career was kickstarted and his identity as a fierce debater was solidified on the ASU campus, and his message resonated with many young people. Charlie Kirk is not the only news personality connecting with a younger generation. According to research by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center, nearly 40% of adults under 30 get their news from content creators. This week on ⁠The Gaggle⁠, we hear from Gen Z about what Charlie Kirk meant to them, the legacy he's leaving behind and research on where young people turn to for their news.

A new survey from the Pew Research Center explores how Christians view faith and politics after the 2024 election. Most Americans said they do not believe God plays a role in U.S. elections. Just 4% said God chose President Donald Trump for his policies, while 32% said his election was part of God's plan. Nearly half — 49% — said God does not get involved in elections, and 14% said they do not believe in God. Eighty percent of Christians said good Christians can disagree with Trump, while only 7% said supporting him is essential. The survey also found that most Americans say religion shapes how they vote very little or not at all.

Aujourd'hui, on parle de l'impact de ChatGPT sur notre langage quotidien.En effet, une étude américaine révèle que l'usage du chatbot influence directement le vocabulaire humain.Comment ça se passe ?Les mots de ChatGPT se glissent dans notre vocabulaireD'abord, les mots de ChatGPT se glissent dans notre vocabulaire.L'étude montre que des termes comme "approfondir", "stratégique", ou "multifacettes" sont de plus en plus utilisés dans le langage courant. Ce qui est étrange c'est que ces mots sont souvent employés dans des contextes académiques. Et ils sont désormais plus fréquents dans les échanges quotidiens de tout un chacun.Les résultats montrent donc une augmentation de l'utilisation de ces mots, ce qui suggère une fusion entre les choix de mots humains influencés par le lexique des grands modèles de langage.Donc la question à dix mille euros c'est "est-ce que ce sont les utilisateurs qui influencent ChatGPT, ou bien est-ce ChatGPT qui influence notre façon de parler ?"L'influence générationnelle des chatbots d'IAEt bien en réalité tout ceci a à voir avec l'adoption du chatbot et son influence générationnelle.Car l'une des découvertes marquantes de l'étude, c'est l'ampleur de l'adoption de ChatGPT, notamment chez les jeunes adultes. De quoi en faire de véritables chevaux de Troie du vocabulaire de l'IA.Selon le Pew Research Center, plus de la moitié des adultes de moins de 30 ans utilisent l'outil. Et avec une telle utilisation, l'influence de ChatGPT sur leur langage est indéniable. Les mots à la mode véhiculés par l'IA se propagent ainsi très vite.Quels sont les risques de ces évolutions du langageCar si l'IA transforme notre manière de nous exprimer, cela soulève des questions sur l'impact que cela peut avoir sur nos idées et nos valeurs.Les chercheurs s'inquiètent de la façon dont l'usage excessif de certains mots pourrait affecter notre manière de penser, et de l'éventuelle influence de l'IA sur notre communication de manière plus générale.Le ZD Tech est sur toutes les plateformes de podcast !

According to a 2014 study by the Pew Research Center, people in wealthier countries are happier on average, but only up to a point. Even in so-called "emerging" countries like Indonesia, Pakistan and Turkey, there was a correlation between rising wealth levels and the percentage of happy people. Interestingly though, in well-off nations, people don't necessarily attribute their happiness directly to money. The same Pew Research Center study found that health, children's education, safety from crime, owning a home and having a fulfilling job were all more important than financial security. Of course, those factors are all somewhat connected to the economy.  Where did that saying come from to start with? And is money still a key player? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Distraction, Devices, and the Disconnection Dilemma Episode #83

President Donald Trump is going to defend his tariff policy before the U.S. Supreme Court. Lower federal courts recently ruled that President Trump does not have the authority to impose tariffs under the national emergency powers. A new Pew Research Center poll found that 61% of Americans disapprove of his tariff policies. Businesses like Sisseton-Wahpeton fabric designer Denise Hill are faced with having to raise prices to make up for rising costs on goods from other countries. We'll get a reading on the effect tariffs have had on Native-owned businesses so far. GUESTS State Sen.

Generation Gap has been on the air nearly ten years, hosted by Dorothy Wilhelm. and Ray Miller Still, Editor in Chief of The Enumclaw Courier Herald. Ray says there are only 2 Courier Herald Newspapers in the World. One is in the United States and One in Ireland. So it's been our custom to decide on the question we'll discuss for each show. Dorothy, born in 1934, is a member of the Silent Generation. The Silent Generation is generally defined as those born between 1928 and 1945. This generation grew up during the Great Depression and World War II, which significantly shaped their values and worldview. We're called Silent because we didn't make waves. We didn't protest. We had seen the Great Depression and the Great War. We just wanted peace and civic involvement. Ray is a member of the Millennials who were born between 1981 and 1996, making them approximately 29 to 44 years old in 2025. This age range is defined by the Pew Research Center and is widely accepted, although some sources may vary by a year or two. And then our newest Generation Gap member is Jason Falls. we're still working on remembering what generation he belongs to, but we think Gen z. Stand by for late breaking bulletins. This month Ray suggested that we talk about the video games that everybody is playing these days. It didn't work out too well. Ray wanted to hear about the games that Dorothy played, and she denied ever playing a game in her life. Jason was ready to dive in. Born in 1975, he's a member of Gen x, according to the books, but I'm not convinced. He just doesn't seem like an X - more about this later. We were all ready to talk about games. According to Generation z blogs, this is an important indicator of the generations. It doesn't say why. Gen Z is the most important generational shift so far, according to Gen Z Blogs but their experiences and outlook are not understood well enough by those who have come before them. Generation Z has huge, as yet mostly untapped, potential to meet the challenges of today. In 2025 Generation Z will form over a quarter of the UK workforce and an even larger proportion of US. The older ones are already in management positions in large companies and ripping up the rulebook on their own. Their importance in the workplace will grow. But back to our question. Dorothy is steadfast in her determination not to play games or even have a pedicure for that matter. So you'll want to tune in next month to hear the final word on Why Generations Fight and if we can possibly get along. I actually thank we can, but I'm not sure I can learn one of those electronic games. But little old people can't manage those teeny keys. This is the closest thing to a drop dead question that we've had on Generation Gap. What do you think about old time hands and new time games. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Power of Showing Up explores how consistent spiritual practices transform our lives. While habits like exercise and saving money shape our physical and financial well-being, church attendance profoundly impacts our spiritual, emotional, and relational health. Research from Harvard, Barna Group, and Pew Research Center reveals that regular churchgoers experience greater generosity, consistent prayer, deeper connections, reduced loneliness, and more regular Bible reading. Studies also show decreased anxiety and depression and improved marital satisfaction among those who attend church regularly.Hebrews 10:25 encourages believers not to give up meeting together because we need each other to grow spiritually. When we approach church with a contributor mindset rather than consumer expectations, we discover opportunities to encourage others through meaningful interactions. Church also provides a crucial reminder of God's unchanging character and promises in our uncertain world.To build a strong church attendance habit, try these four strategies: pre-decide to attend rather than making Sunday morning decisions, tell a friend for accountability, reward yourself for consistency, and commit to never miss twice. These practical steps help overcome the neural pathways that often lead to self-sabotage when forming new habits.

The way Americans consume information is evolving fast, and younger Americans are increasingly turning to nontraditional sources for their news. According to Pew Research Center, 39% of adults under 30 regularly get their news from influencers rather than traditional outlets. In this episode of "After the Fact," we explore what this shift means for trust in journalism, the role of social media in shaping public opinion, and how news organizations are responding to this changing landscape. Drawing on analysis from the Center and the Pew-Knight Initiative, we hear from a news researcher, Michael Lipka, and a content creator, Mosheh Oinounou, on how the lines between entertainment, opinion, and information are blurring, and what it means for the future of an informed public.

For decades, the story of religion in America has been the story of decline. A steadily growing share of Americans have been identifying as “nones” – people with no religious affiliation. But a new report from the Pew Research Center shows something surprising. That number of “nones” has plateaued. What could be behind it – and is it a sign of bigger things to come? We’re joined by Greg Smith, senior researcher at Pew Research Center, and Ed Stetzer, theology dean at Biola University, to explore this trend. Thank you to Pew Research Center for making today’s conversation possible.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The host explores a looming social crisis: the stark reality of modern relationships and happiness. Citing studies from the Pew Research Center and the General Social Survey, the host reveals that a significant number of Gen Z women don't believe marriage or motherhood leads to a happy life. However, he counters this with data showing that married women with children are actually twice as likely to report being "very happy" compared to unmarried and childless women. The discussion also highlights a growing partisan divide between young men and women, with Gen Z men being the most conservative in a century, creating a "demographic armageddon" that will make it harder for young people to find a compatible partner.

Avec plus de 43 millions d'emprunteurs et 1 700 milliards de dollars de dettes, le système de financement des études supérieures aux États-Unis montre ses limites. Les conséquences sociales et économiques inquiètent. Aux États-Unis, un étudiant dépense chaque année entre 10 000 et 70 000 dollars pour ses études, selon le Pew Research Center. Résultat, 43 millions d'Américains ont contracté un prêt étudiant, pour une dette globale qui atteint désormais 1 700 milliards de dollars. Suspendus pendant la pandémie de Covid, les remboursements ont repris, fragilisant le budget de millions de ménages et limitant leur accès à d'autres crédits. À lire aussiÉtats-Unis: l'administration Trump va reprendre la collecte de dettes étudiantes impayées Un frein à la consommation et à la croissance Chaque mois, des milliards de dollars sont absorbés par le remboursement des prêts étudiants, au détriment de la consommation. Les défauts de paiement se multiplient, entraînant saisies, pertes d'accès au crédit et difficultés pour acheter un logement, créer une entreprise ou fonder une famille. Selon Morgan Stanley, cet endettement pourrait réduire la croissance américaine de 0,1 point de PIB dès cette année. Des réponses politiques insuffisantes et un avenir incertain Joe Biden avait tenté, via le plan SAVE, en 2023, de plafonner les mensualités et d'annuler une partie des dettes, mais la Cour suprême a bloqué la mesure. Donald Trump a adopté une ligne plus stricte, avec reprise des recouvrements forcés et retenues sur prestations sociales. Face à cette impasse, deux scénarios se dessinent. Le premier, un réaménagement permettant aux ménages de souffler. Le second, plus pessimiste, une explosion des défauts de paiement qui pourrait peser sur l'économie américaine pendant des décennies. De plus en plus de jeunes remettent désormais en question la rentabilité même d'un diplôme universitaire, fragilisant à leur tour les universités.

Twenty years ago this week, Hurricane Katrina—still the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history—made landfall in New Orleans. Many mark the storm as the transition point to a new age of extreme weather impacts. The Federal Emergency Management Agency more than tripled the size of its Disaster Relief Fund going forward as a result of Katrina and two other major hurricanes in 2005.  Yet two decades later, disasters of this scale have become so common that FEMA has been on track to run out of its Disaster Relief Fund for the second year in a row, unless Congress issues an emergency aid package.  And in this anniversary week, more than 180 FEMA employees have endorsed a letter submitted to members of Congress, urging their defense of the agency's continued operations in spite of the President's stated intent to eliminate or severely curtail its funding. The 36 co-signers that opted to use their names have been placed on administrative leave until further notice, The New York Times reports.  This is the context for today's conversation with the host and co-creator of the Peabody Award-winning podcast miniseries “Floodlines”, Vann R. Newkirk II.  Vann traces the events surrounding Hurricane Katrina as a demonstration of the ways a community's risk exposure and recovery assistance are often determined by race and class.  These disparities became nationally visible both in the immediacy of the disaster and long after, as some New Orleanians were able to return and recover their homes and livelihoods, while for many others such recovery still remains out of reach.    Duke and Vann also look at Hurricane Katrina's invigoration of a national and federal movement for environmental justice. Now that this work is being targeted and dismantled, they discuss how to maintain focus in the face of such dramatic reversals and the implications for the next major storm.   Be sure to tune in again next week when we look further into the post-Katrina recovery period with one of its primary leaders, HR&A President and CEO Jeff Hébert, who formerly served as first deputy mayor for the City of New Orleans, executive director of the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority, and as one of the first chief resilience officers appointed under Rockefeller's 100 Resilient Cities initiative.  Relevant content from Vann R.

A recent study by the Pew Research Center shared statistics that Latter-day Saint women are top of the charts when it comes to experiencing “a deep sense of spiritual peace and well-being on a weekly basis.” We also report the “highest rate of being very happy.” To someone only paying attention to what media and popular culture might say, these statistics might be surprising. But we know why these numbers ring true: we live our faith daily and it really does bring us greater peace and happiness.   Dr. Jenet Erickson, a fellow of the Wheatley Institute and a professor in the School of Family Life at Brigham Young University, recently dove into these findings and is here to share what she learned. The real stories of Latter-day Saint women are ones of peace, power, and strength that shine brighter than any viral trend. We are women of conviction who love and serve God and each other with all of our hearts.  Links: Jenet's article in the Deseret News: Perspective: National data doesn't confirm popular distortions about Latter-day Saint women Join us!

AP correspondent Marcela Sanchez reports on new data from the Pew Research Center on illegal immigration in the U.S.

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is one that really isn't that surprising, especially if you've been tracking with the data on how digital devices are interrupting our kids sleep patterns. Forty five percent of the kids surveyed said that social media sites hurt the amount of sleep they get. Only four percent of kids say social media sites help their sleep, while thirty two percent are neutral. As you've heard us say here many times before, God made us for a rhythm of work and rest, and our kids need over nine hours of uninterrupted sleep each night for healthy growth and development. Parents, one of the first and most helpful parenting steps you can take is to get the phones out of their rooms. Doing this will contribute to their health and flourishing.

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is that after all these years of adults noticing the drop in kids' productivity due to so much time spent on social media, the kids are now beginning to realize this themselves. Four out of ten thirteen to seventeen year olds say that social media platforms hurt their productivity. This makes sense as we know that social media is distracting, with notifications interrupting whatever it might be that our attention should be focused on. In the past, research has shown that the human mind can not multi-task with optimal productivity for either task. Teach your kids to focus their minds on the task at hand, putting their phones aside so they might do their best at whatever it is, all to the glory of God.

From TikTok trends to Hollywood mergers, the media world is evolving fast. Most Americans — 83 percent of U.S. adults — use streaming services, according to the Pew Research Center.Social media is competing with traditional outlets for our attention and trust.  And mergers are reshaping who creates, distributes and profits from the content we watch, read and listen to.  MPR News host Angela Davis talks with a media analyst and a pop culture critic about how technology, business and culture are transforming the media landscape and what it means.Guests:Eric Deggans is TV critic, media analyst and guest host at National Public Radio. Next month, he begins teaching as the Knight Professor of Journalism and Media Ethics at Washington and Lee University in Virginia.

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is related to how social media affects one's friendships. Teens say that there are positive effects on friendships, including being more connected to what's going on in their friends' lives, finding it to be a place to show their creative side, finding people to help them during difficult times, and making them feel more accepted. But they also site negative impacts, including being overwhelmed by all the social drama, feeling the pressure to create content that others will like, feeling like their friends are leaving them out of things, and making them compare in ways that makes them feel worse about their own lives. Parents, this mixed bag is one reason why many experts are advising no social media until the age of sixteen.

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings points to the fact that our kids themselves are starting to see the downside of all this time spent on social media. Back in twenty twenty two, thirty six percent of kids said they spend too much time on social media. A year later, that number had dropped to twenty-seven percent. But in twenty-twenty-four, just one year later, the number jumped up to forty-five percent. We are hearing about more and more kids who are initiating steps on their own, by taking social media fasts, getting rid of their smartphones in favor of dumbphones, and getting off social media altogether. Parents, too much time spent on social media means too little time on other more important things, like the cultivating of a rich devotional life.

On this week's episode of Women Speak — a segment on Northeast Newscast — hosts Northeast News Editor-in-Chief, Julia Williams and former Missouri House Representative for District 19 Ingrid Burnett sat down with Chancellor for Metropolitan Community College (MCC) Kim Beatty (P.h.D.) to continue our series on women in education.Beatty delves into current internal operations for MCC and how the education system has evolved over the last few years. Throughout the episode, she additionally discusses career paths that MCC offers from nursing degrees to customized training for companies. Programs, which MCC provides are also discussed including the A+ Program as well as dual credit course options for high school students prior to graduation. She goes on to share her professional background and the path that led her to her position today. Beatty also mentions a few people who have inspired her along the way along with what she considers her proudest accomplishments. Williams shares a brief history and statistics from Pew Research Center — a nonpartisan, social science research organization based in Washington, D.C., according to its website — on the number of women in the U.S. who have obtained their bachelor's degree over the past 30 years. Beatty expands on this to mention how these national trends are reflected on the local level. Williams additionally discusses a few women who pioneered higher education and who have paved the way for women in post-secondary education today. This includes some of the first universities to allow female admission as well as some of the first females to graduate from those universities and continue to make a difference after receiving their degree. Beatty, Burnett and Williams additionally discuss ways to get involved within higher education including boards, commissions, foundations and mentoring service opportunities. Music used within this Women Speak episode is a song called “I Wish I Knew You Then” by Kansas City local artist Honeybee and the group's lead female vocalist, Makayla Scott. “I Wish I Knew You Then” is a recent single, which Honeybee released in March 2025.  Honeybee's latest single “Lindenlure,” was released on May 30 and is now available on its streaming platforms. 2025 singles “I Wish I Knew You Then,” “Charmed Life” and “Lindenlure” as well as additional Honeybee tracks are available on Spotify, Apple Music, Youtube, TIDAL and Youtube Music. *Disclaimer* I Wish I Knew You Then and any previous or future Honeybee songs used by The Northeast News within the Women Speak podcasts are courtesy of and approved by Makayla Scott and Honeybee under proper copyright law.

Join Jim and Greg as they stock the Friday 3 Martini Lunch with four stories. They discuss Democrats trying to blame President Trump for record-high grocery prices, young men supporting Republicans far more than just a few years ago, the U.S. withdrawing from Middle East ceasefire talks, and the loss of three hugely prominent celebrities this week who were household names for kids of the 1980's.First, they get a good laugh as the Democrats post a graph of grocery prices since 2019 showing how prices are at a record high. The Democrats captioned the graph "Trump's America." The backlash was immediate as the graph clearly showed the vast majority of the inflation took place in the Biden years - as we all know.Next, they welcome new numbers from the Pew Research Center showing male voters aged 18-29 now favor Republicans by a 52-34 percent margin. Men of every age group prefer Republicans by double digits and women over 50 are split pretty evenly. Women under 50 strongly side with the Democrats, and Jim offers a cultural explanation for the gender gap.Then, they roll their eyes as French President Emanuel Macron announces France will recognize a Palestinian state when the United Nations General Assembly opens in late September. Meanwhile, ceasefire talks have ended after the latest Hamas counteroffer was so ridiculous that the mediators would not even pass it along to the U.S. negotiators.Finally, they reflect on the deaths of '80s legends Hulk Hogan, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, and Ozzy Osbourne. They explain what a cultural phenomenon Hogan was back then. They also remember Warner's very memorable years on The Cosby Show, and how Osbourne's reputation shifted from heavy metal music to a quirky dad once his family got a reality show.Please visit our great sponsors:Upgrade your skincare routine with Caldera Lab and see the difference.  Visit https://CalderaLab.com/3ML and use code 3ML at checkout for 20% off your first order.

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is one that I also find encouraging. Teens were asked about who they are most comfortable talking about their mental health with. The options included parents, friends, a mental health therapist, a family member other than a parent, and a teacher. Fifty two percent of the kids said they are extremely or very likely to talk to their parent. However, sixteen percent did say they are not too or not at all likely to talk to a parent. No matter what, we can always exert greater effort at building the kind of relationships with our kids that encourage good communication and a willingness to open up. Be sure your kids know that along with God, you are always available whenever they want to talk!

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most interesting findings is our teenagers' shifting attitudes on whether or not social media is harmless, or harmful. Back in twenty twenty-two, thirty-two percent of our thirteen to seventeen year olds said that social media sites have a mostly negative effect on people their age. At the end of twenty-twenty-four, the percentage of kids saying the same thing had risen significantly to forty-eight percent. Parents, when our kids themselves are self-reporting that social media is harmful, we need to interpret that as a cry for help. God has given you the responsibility to raise and nurture your kids to spiritual maturity. Perhaps it's time we realize that we must take steps to help them peel away from social media harm.

Late last year, the Pew Research Center conducted a survey of almost fourteen hundred teens, ages thirteen to seventeen, to come to an understanding of our teenagers' experiences and attitudes around social media and their mental health. One of the most concerning findings to me is that thirty-four percent of our kids say they go to social media to get mental health information, with sixty-three percent of the kids surveyed saying that social media is an important source for information about mental health. My concern is fueled by the fact that even though one can find good advice on social media, it is also a source of misinformation, and even the kind of bad information that can encourage kids to embrace and lean into things like gender confusion, immoral sexual practices, and body dysmorphia. Parents, prepare your kids with warnings about what they might find on the internet, along with constant encouragement to come to you so that together you might get the proper needed help.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss today's rulings from the Supreme Court, including a 6-3 decision that limits the ability of federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions that block a presidents' executive orders. They also talk about the fall-out from the New York Democratic mayoral primary. Then, they discuss new research from the Pew Research Center on the 2024 election and they deliver the “You Cannot Be Serious” stories from the week. Next, Carl and Andrew speak to Emerson College Pollster Spencer Kimball to discuss his most recent poll numbers, including a look at likely presidential candidates in 2028 and Emerson's poll of the New York ranked-choice mayoral race. And finally, Andrew talks to RCP National Correspondent Susan Crabtree about her recent reporting concerning dual nationality political prisoners held in Tehran and efforts to gain their freedom. Will the Trump Administration push for their release as part of a larger deal with Iran?

A few thoughtful boundaries can go a long way toward keeping your attention—and your heart—right where it belongs. In this episode, John discusses: Setting clear boundaries for technology use Using digital tools without letting them take over Modeling intentional tech habits for others Capturing memories creatively without relying on phones Getting active to help minimize screen time Key Takeaways: Designate specific times and areas where phones and devices are off-limits—like meals, game time, or evenings. These tech-free zones help protect face-to-face connection and make space for deeper conversations. Schedule intentional moments for using phones—whether it’s snapping photos, checking in with friends, or finding local spots to explore—so tech use stays purposeful, not constant. Lead by example when it comes to phone habits. Others, especially kids, will often mirror what they see, so your own behavior can gently shape the group’s overall tech use. Bring along a digital or disposable camera to encourage creativity without defaulting to your phone. It adds fun to memory-making and invites everyone to see the trip from a different perspective. Plan active group moments that naturally draw attention away from screens—like a hike, a game, or a walk on the beach. Physical activity often creates space for presence, laughter, and lasting memories. “Stay prayerful, flexible, graceful, and kind. Even with preparations and expectations set and shared, and tech tips in place, and doing your best, a plan is still only a plan.”  Resources Mentioned: How Teens and Parents Approach Screen Time by Pew Research Center: https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2024/03/11/how-teens-and-parents-approach-screen-time/ CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!

POLITICO's James Bikales breaks down why the lobbying group hasn't taken a public position and where the Senate stands on those credits. Plus, Americans' support for expanding renewable energy is dropping under the second Trump administration, according to a new report released from the nonpartisan Pew Research Center.

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.
