Is busyness subtly drowning out your ability to love God and love others? When we're constantly rushing from one task to the next, we lose the time and mental space to notice the needs of those around us, let alone build meaningful relationships with them. Our hurried lifestyles often turn our homes into mere refuges from the chaos instead of places of true connection and community. Today's guest, Dave Runyon, author of The Art of Neighboring (https://www.amazon.com/Art-Neighboring-Building-Genuine-Relationships/dp/080101459X), shares how simple acts of loving and connecting with our neighbors can create a profound social safety net – stronger than governmental programs – and foster a deeper sense of community.

What are the effects when you give $1,000 a month in unconditional cash transfers to low-income Americans for three years? Our guests this week studied the behavioral and political outcomes of this in a 3,000-person study. Elizabeth Rhodes is the research director for the Unconditional Cash Study at OpenResearch, a nonprofit research lab founded by OpenAI founder Sam Altman. David Broockman is an associate professor of political science at the University of California, Berkeley and worked as the principal investigator supporting the unconditional cash study. Together, they co-authored, along with others, a paper: "The Causal Effects of Income on Political Attitudes and Behavior: A Randomized Field Experiment.” Rhodes and Broockman join WITHpod to discuss some of the most surprising finds, why receiving cash overwhelmingly didn't change people's political leanings, how the money changed people's attitudes about work and more.

In 1972, the federal government launched a program to support the poorest disabled and elderly Americans. Supplemental Security Income, run by the Social Security Administration, provides monthly checks that are a lifeline for some of the most vulnerable people in this country.SSI was intended to serve as a powerful safety net and a tool for fighting poverty. But a recent NPR Investigation led by correspondent Joseph Shapiro has discovered a very different reality today.In today's episode of The Sunday Story, Shapiro explains how SSI's outdated rules have made the system difficult to run and almost impossible for its beneficiaries to navigate. Impoverished disabled and elderly people say they have been penalized for trying to improve their lives—for saving money, getting married, and even daring to have careers.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In today's episode of Mid Mic Daily Bite, hosts Bunchu and Chamber tackle the burgeoning relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and Universal Basic Income (UBI), discussing its potential as a visionary solution to the challenges posed by an AI-driven future. As automation reshapes industries and transforms the job market, the necessity for solutions like UBI becomes increasingly apparent.The hosts delve into how AI, while enhancing efficiency and productivity across various sectors, also poses significant risks by potentially displacing a large portion of the workforce. This displacement raises urgent questions about economic stability and the livelihoods of millions who might find their skills obsolete in the face of advancing technology.UBI emerges as a compelling response, proposing a guaranteed, unconditional income to all citizens—ensuring a safety net in a landscape where traditional employment could become less common. Bunchu and Chamber discuss the dual nature of UBI as both an economic policy and a moral imperative, highlighting how it could serve as a means to redistribute the wealth generated by AI and automation more equitably.Furthermore, they explore the criticisms and logistical challenges associated with implementing UBI, such as its financial viability and potential impacts on economic incentives. Yet, they argue that the rapid evolution of AI may necessitate such bold measures, and AI itself could play a crucial role in administrating and optimizing UBI schemes.This episode provides a deep dive into how AI and UBI could coexist to forge a sustainable economic model in an era of unprecedented technological advancement, ensuring that the fruits of AI advancements are enjoyed by all segments of society, not just a few. Join Bunchu and Chamber as they navigate through the complexities and potential of integrating AI with universal basic income to address the future of work and societal well-being.Source: https://midmiccrisis.com/ai-and-ubi-a-solution-for-the-future-of-work/Follow Us:Website: https://midmiccrisis.com/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@midmiccrisisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/midmiccrisis/?hl=enTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mid.mic.crisis?lang=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/MidMicCrisisNewsletter: https://mid-mic-crisis-newsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribeFireBrain AI: https://www.skool.com/firebrainPowered by @dGenNetworkWebsite: https://dgen.network/Support the show

During the pandemic, most moms hit a breaking point. All of the increased labor of childcare, at-home teaching, and caregiving seemed to land mostly, or only, on their plates. It was a clarifying moment for many of us that things simply could not continue as they were going—and that perhaps they had been going that way for a long time. Jessica Calarco is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Wisconsin and the author of the new book HOLDING IT TOGETHER: How Women Became America's Safety Net. In this interview, discusses the forces that place the burden of childcare and domestic labor on women.

A journey that began with a few men in Melbourne growing mustaches, has now bloomed into a global movement. Movember, as it's known, has raised over $800 million, advocating primarily for men's health issues including prostate and testicular cancer, along with mental health and suicide prevention. Our guest, Mark from the Movember Foundation, walks us through this heartening transformation, articulating the significance of both physical and mental health in men's lives. Through conversations about the Alec Model, we learn the power of asking, listening without judgement, encouraging action, and checking back in. Exploring the nuanced aspects of masculinity and vulnerability, our guest underscores the need for redefining strength as an attribute that includes emotional expression and empathy. The reverberations of the Covid-19 pandemic on men's mental health are also put under the microscope, as we discuss the importance of altruistic collaborations and the steps Movember is taking to support men re-entering the workforce.In our final stride, we touch upon the unacknowledged collective grief brought about by the pandemic and the ways to process it on a personal level. The episode underlines the fact that men's health is not just a November concern, but a year-round priority. So, come along on this enlightening journey with us, as we redefine, rediscover, and reclaim men's health, one mustache at a time.Head to Movember.com to donate or, create your own fundraising page.Support the showAdditional Resources: Subscribe/Rate/Review on iTunes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: >>>HEREEnroll Here
