Kulttuuriykkösen Perjantaistudiossa ruoditaan ajankohtaisia kulttuurin ja median ilmiöitä sekä arvokysymyksiä. Raatilaisina ovat Outi Hupaniittu, Jussi Turhala ja Matti Rämö. Ohjelman juontaa Nicklas Wancke. Perjantaistudiossa mietityttää tällä kertaa, voidaanko periaatteessa kenen tahansa maine tuhota väärillä syytöksillä. Teemu Bergmanin elämä tuhottiin pukstoo-saitilla väärillä raiskaussyytöksillä, häneltä meni työt, ystävät ja maine. Pitäisikö poksauttaa shamppanjapullot, sillä Suomi on YK:n sponsoroiman The World Happiness -raportin mukaan jälleen maailman onnellisin maa? Suomi on kahdeksatta kertaa peräkkäin sijoittunut koettua onnellisuutta mittaavassa kyselyssä ensimmäiselle sijalle. Tosin onnellisusarvosana oli vain 7.7! Perjantaistudio ihmettelee myös STT:n ja Bauer Median viime viikolla saamaa suurta journalismipalkintoa. Se tuli tekoälyn valjastamisesta uutistenlukijaksi. Eikö luomuäänellä ole enää arvoa? Raati kummastelee myös ideaa siirtää kesäloma myöhemmäksi sekä hallituksen kulttuurivihamielisyyttä.

Meik Wiking CEO of The Happiness Research Institute in Denmark is on to talk abut the latest report on World Happiness.

Eri lähteiden mukaan Yhdysvaltain presidentti Joe Bidenin hallinto olisi antanut Ukrainalle luvan iskeä Venäjän maaperälle amerikkalaisvalmisteisilla aseilla. Mitä merkitys tällä on Ukrainan sodalle? Puhelimessa Ukrainan sotaa seuraava asiantuntija Emil Kastehelmi. Suomen itärajaa alettiin sulkea vuosi sitten. Mikä on tilanne Pohjois-Karjalan raja-alueella nyt? Puhelimessa Pohjois-Karjalan rajavartioston komentaja, eversti Matti Pitkäniitty. Onko rajan kiinni pitäminen edelleen perusteltua? Keskustelemassa verkostojohtaja Jukka Savolainen Hybridiosaamiskeskuksesta ja vanhempi tutkija Saila Heinikoski Ulkopoliittisesta instituutista. Sisäministeriö julkaisee koko väestölle suunnatun häiriö- ja kriisitilanteisiin varautumisen oppaan. Miksi varautumisopas tarvitaan? Puhelimessa sisäministeriön pelastustoimen yksikön johtaja Pauliina Eskola. Millä tolalla ovat mielenterveyspalvelut Suomessa? Vieraina Mielenterveyden keskusliiton puheenjohtaja Eveliina Lafghani ja Mielenterveysomaisten keskusliiton FinFamin toiminnanjohtaja Tiina Puranen. Juutalaiset kokevat antisemitismin lisääntyneen voimakkaasti viimeisen vuoden aikana Ruotsissa. Pohjoismaiden-kirjeenvaihtaja Jenny Matikainen kertoo, millaista on antisemitismi Ruotsissa. Juontajana Atte Uusinoka, toimittajina Rasmus Montonen, Elina Sonkajärvi ja Lotta Lautala, tuottajana Annette Blencowe. Korjaus: Suomalaisten mielenterveyttä koskevan keskustelun yhteydessä sanotaan virheellisesti, että Suomi on monesti valittu maailman onnellisimmaksi maaksi. The World Happiness -raportin tulos ei kuitenkaan perustu valintaan tai äänestykseen, vaan luokitus perustuu maiden kansalaisten onnellisuuden tasoa mittaavien kyselytutkimusten tuloksiin.

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. Today is day 167 of the war with Hamas. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. We begin today's episode with more ripples felt since Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer's 45-minute speech last Thursday calling for new Israeli elections as the war winds down and branding Netanyahu as an obstacle to peace. Yesterday, Netanyahu spoke to a group of Republican senators and US House Speaker Mike Johnson confirmed that the legislative chamber's Republican caucus is considering inviting Netanyahu to address Congress. What does it mean as Israel -- or at least Netanyahu -- becomes an increasingly partisan issue? Netanyahu said yesterday he would “soon approve plans to evacuate the civilian population” from Rafah ahead of an expected major operation in the southern Gaza city. At the same time, he acknowledged that preparations for the operation “will take some time,” as Jerusalem continues its dialogue with Washington. What new information do we have on a looking Rafah operation? US Secretary of State Antony Blinken will visit Israel on Friday, but yesterday he said that the “gaps are narrowing” between Israel and Hamas on an extended truce and hostage deal. What are we hearing from Israeli hostage families? Though the findings predated the Hamas massacre of October 7 and the subsequent war in Gaza, Israel wis fifth place in the World Happiness rankings for 2024. Horovitz weighs in. For the latest updates, please see The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: Live blog March 21, 2024 US speaker says House GOP weighing asking Netanyahu to address Congress Never mind Chuck Schumer's hopes and fears, what Israel do Israelis want? ‘Gaps closing' in hostage talks, Blinken says as he begins 6th wartime trip to region Israel drops one place to 5th in global happiness list; Finland retains top spot THOSE WE HAVE LOST: Civilians and soldiers killed in Hamas's onslaught on Israel THOSE WE ARE MISSING: The hostages and victims whose fate is still unknown Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In recognition of this month's World Happiness Day, we are presenting one of our favorite episodes from last year with Janelle Monàe and her longtime collaborator, Nate Wonder. Janelle's latest album, The Age Of Pleasure, was created in part as a celebration of black love and community. And as Nate Wonder shares in this interview with Justin Richmond, one of his guiding principles when making the album was to make Janelle smile. As part of Pushkin Industries' network-wide celebration of World Happiness Day, we will also be sharing an episode of The Happiness Lab from our brilliant colleague, Laurie Santos later this month.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Before we break for the holidays, The Big Story team decided to try to end our year on a positive note with a week of good news stories. We hope this week brings you hope, light and laughter. It might be our job to often deliver bad news, but that doesn't mean that's all the world is.Today: You might have thought—based on everything you've seen and heard in the media and through your social channels—that the pandemic turned us all into angry lunatics, yelling at one another and throwing tantrums. We're delighted to inform you that's simply not remotely true, and we have the data to prove it.GUEST: Dr. John Helliwell, professor emeritus at The Vancouver School of Economics at the University of British Columbia; a founding editor of The World Happiness report

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday. Editor David Horovitz and environment reporter Sue Surkes join host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode. MK Simcha Rothman's revised version of the bill changing the mechanism of judicial appointments is set to be brought before Rothman's Constitution, Law and Justice Committee today to be readied for its second and third (final) readings in the plenum. Horovitz explains what the new bill entails and its significance to the judicial branch as a whole. The United Nations released its Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's Sixth Assessment Synthesis Report yesterday. With a focus on Israel, Surkes breaks down some areas where the country is moving away from its commitments. Surkes recently visited the Hula Lake where she investigated what's happening with migrating cranes. She describes the natural grandeur. And finally, Horovitz gives some insight into Israe's surprisingly high fourth-place ranking in the UN-sponsored World Happiness index. Discussed articles include: Ostensibly softened, Rothman bill gives coalition broad control over choice of judges Changes to judicial overhaul leave just 10 days to re-do constitutional framework ‘Red line we won't accept': Levin warns Court not to block judicial appointments bill Scientists urge further cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2035 to meet Paris goals Israel soars to 4th place in global happiness list, highest since ranking started Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on iTunes, Spotify, PlayerFM, Google Play, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In the 7a hour, NewsRadio WFLA Anchor Chris Trenkmann runs through today's top stories, including Governor Ron DeSantis' response to rumors of an impending Trump indictment.

Florida Politics Publisher Peter Schorsch discusses the potential indictment of former President Trump, DeSantis' standing within the GOP, and a major school choice bill. The U.S. ranked 15th in the World Happiness report.
