Tom welcomes back Lyn Alden, Founder of Lyn Alden Investment Strategy, to the show to discuss the intricacies of trade deficits, the role of the US dollar as a global reserve currency, and the broader economic implications for the United States. Lyn explains that a trade deficit occurs when a country imports more than it exports, and while some countries experience this cyclically, others, like India, have managed structural deficits by investing in long-term growth rather than overconsumption. The US, however, faces a unique challenge: its trade deficit is deeply tied to its status as the world's reserve currency, which creates an excess demand for dollars and makes it difficult to manufacture competitively. Lyn highlights that the dollar's strength perpetuates this cycle, making imports expensive and exports cheaper, while also forcing the US to rely on foreign investment to fund its deficits. This dynamic has contributed to deindustrialization and a shift in economic power globally. She contrasts this with historical examples like the UK during the Bretton Woods era, where a similar situation led to stagnation before the rise of new powers like the US. The discussion shifts to fiscal dominance, where large government deficits constrain monetary policy, making central banks more reliant on fiscal authorities. Lyn notes that the Fed is increasingly limited in its ability to control inflation due to these fiscal pressures. She also addresses Trump's tariff policies, arguing they harm domestic industries and shift costs onto American consumers while failing to address the root causes of trade imbalances. Inflationary pressures from tariffs are uneven, with specific sectors facing price increases while others experience disinflation. Lyn emphasizes that sustained inflation requires broader money supply growth, which has not been a significant factor in recent years. She concludes by exploring alternatives like gold and Bitcoin as potential reserve assets, suggesting that diversification into neutral reserves could help mitigate risks but remains largely theoretical at this stage.

Together, we unpack fascinating new research showing how the way we eat in midlife can dramatically shape the quality of our lives as we age.  We dive into the role of nutrition to aging better, the dangers of ultra-processed foods, the critical connection between the gut microbiome and aging, and why small, realistic changes to your plate today can mean a stronger, sharper, more independent you tomorrow.  We also explore why meal prepping could be a secret weapon for better nutrition, why plant-based foods are getting more emphasis in future dietary guidelines, and the surprising gap in nutrition education for medical professionals.  Whether you're 40, 50, 60, or beyond—it's never too late to make meaningful changes!  Key Takeaways:  It's never too late to make a difference in your diet.  Only 9.3% of study participants achieved healthy aging without chronic diseases.  The average American diet is not supportive of healthy aging.  Ultra-processed foods significantly undermine long-term health.  Meal prepping can help you stay on track with healthy eating.  Adding more plant foods to your plate can improve overall health and aging.  Nutrition education remains limited in the medical field.  The microbiome plays a major role in healthy aging.  Future dietary guidelines will likely push more plant-forward options.  Small changes today can lead to significant improvements over time.  Prefer to Watch?  You can also watch the full episode on my YouTube channel under the AGE BETTER playlist: Barbara Hannah Grufferman YouTube Channel     Follow AGE BETTER:  If you enjoyed this episode, please follow AGE BETTER on your favorite podcast platform and leave a quick rating or review—it helps so much!

She is a former White House and congressional correspondent for the Boston Globe, U.S. News and World Report, and the New York Daily News.s America Pissed Off Enough at Trump and Musk for a General Strike?The United States hasnt seen such a massive labor action in 78 years. But the oligarchic wreckage of this administration is fueling multiple movements toward that goal.https://newrepublic.com/article/193370/general-strike-trump-musk-sara-nelson-labor-unionsWe note that Canada's election was yesterday, and results are that Canadians voted AGAINST what Trump represents. He made himself an issue in their election. "In the US, healthcare is an industry, in Canada, it is a right." Trump's poor approval ratings are evidence of dislike for him and his policies here in the US, and we discuss whether a general strike is likely in the US to show this. What do we have left to lose?Part two:Carrie N. Baker, JD, PhD, is the Bauman Professor of American Studies and chair of the Program for the Study of Women, Gender and Sexuality at Smith College.

US News and World Report released its most recent law school rankings with a side of chaos, but the big takeaway is the scrambling and erosion of the "T14" as an organizing concept. Is it time to dismiss the rankings as arbitrary? At least until law schools agree to cooperate again. Also, Surrendergate continues and the "we'll do some pro bono for veterans" deal has turned dramatically, with the White House now claiming the authority to "assign" Biglaw firms to work on administration projects. Sound familiar? Along the way, firms are starting to lose senior lawyers fulfilling critical firm roles while the most recent defectors alienate the overwhelming majority of their team. Finally, the Supreme Court has issued some unanimous rebukes in defense of due process and the administration does not seem to care.

Is it time to dismiss the rankings as arbitrary? At least until law schools agree to cooperate again. Also, Surrendergate continues and the "we'll do some pro bono for veterans" deal has turned dramatically, with the White House now claiming the authority to "assign" Biglaw firms to work on administration projects. Sound familiar? Along the way, firms are starting to lose senior lawyers fulfilling critical firm roles while the most recent defectors alienate the overwhelming majority of their team. Finally, the Supreme Court has issued some unanimous rebukes in defense of due process and the administration does not seem to care. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On April 11, 1881, classes began in the basement of an Atlanta church at what was then known as the Atlanta Baptist Female Seminary. Sponsored by the American Baptist Women's Home Mission Society, this modest beginning marked the foundation of what would become Spelman College, one of the nation's premier institutions for African American women. Spelman is consistently ranked among the top liberal arts colleges by U.S. News & World Report and as one of the best women's colleges by Forbes. The Rockefeller family, especially Laura Spelman Rockefeller, provided significant financial support. In 1924, the school was renamed in her honor. Learn more about your ad choices.

This Canadian election will be a sprint, not a marathon. Only 33 days remain! And so, World Report wants to help you find the best election podcast to keep you informed. Today we present House Party, a lively new election chat from the makers of The House. They promise their watch party is not (only) for political nerds. House Party brings you three hosts (Catherine Cullen, Jason Markusoff, and Daniel Thibeault) in three locations (Ottawa, Alberta and Quebec) who get together on Wednesdays to tackle one big, burning election question. Their episode today: Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is catching heat for what she said to Americans about Canada's federal election. In a resurfaced March interview with right-wing media outlet Breitbart, Smith suggested the U.S. pause tariffs to avoid hurting Canadian Conservatives' electoral chances. She also said Pierre Poilievre is the best leader for Canada because he's more “in sync” with U.S. President Donald Trump. Today on House Party, journalists Catherine Cullen, Jason Markusoff and Daniel Thibeault dig into debate about the differences between Poilievre and Trump, their style, their policies — and why the Conservative candidate needs to straddle a wide swath of beliefs across the political right, if he wants to be elected Prime Minister.More episodes of House Party are available here: https://link.mgln.ai/kv6axN

Have you ever wondered if trusting your teen more could actually make them more responsible? Or do you find yourself constantly worrying and feeling like it's your job to control everything in their life? In this episode of Power Your Parenting – Moms with Teens, host Colleen O'Grady sits down with Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson, co-authors of The Self-Driven Child and their latest workbook, The Seven Principles for Raising a Self-Driven Child. Together, they explore how fostering a sense of autonomy in teens can actually make them more motivated and resilient. They discuss the critical difference between control and influence, the importance of parents being a non-anxious presence, and how stepping back can help teens step up. Through relatable examples and real-life experiences, they illustrate how letting go of excessive monitoring and trusting teens to navigate their own decisions—while still providing guidance—can lead to stronger relationships and more self-sufficient young adults.  William Stixrud, Ph.D. is a clinical neuropsychologist and a faculty member at Children's National Medical Center and George Washington University Medical School. He lectures and writes widely on the adolescent brain, meditation, and the effects of stress, sleep deprivation, and technology overload on the brain. He is on the board of the David Lynch Foundation.    Ned Johnson is the founder of PrepMatters and the coauthor of Conquering the SAT: How Parents Can Help Teens Overcome the Pressure and Succeed. A sought-after speaker and teen coach for study skills, parent-teen dynamics, and anxiety management, his work has been featured on NPR, NewsHour, U.S. News & World Report, Time, The Washington Post, and The Wall Street Journal.   Here are three key takeaways from this conversation: First, teens need to develop a sense of control over their own lives to build confidence and resilience—over-managing them often backfires. Second, maintaining a calm and supportive presence as a parent is more effective than reacting with anxiety, as emotions are contagious. Lastly, success isn't defined by a perfect academic record or a linear path—giving kids room to make mistakes and learn from them is one of the greatest gifts a parent can provide. This episode will leave you with a fresh perspective on parenting and practical ways to create a more positive, less stressful dynamic with your teen. Learn more about your ad choices.

Springing forward got you down, or up? Check out this re-release of our episode with U.S. News & World Report sleep expert Julia Forbes. Can't sleep? You're not alone but getting some good ZZZ's could be one hack away. The U.S. News & World Report annual survey on sleep is out. Survey says: 75% of us are too stressed out to get a good night's sleep. Julia Forbes is the magazine's sleep editor. She says there's a lot keeping us up. "Life stressors. You have work. You have kids. There are big world events that are top of mind that we also cover in our sleep survey," says Julia. Julia's journey to becoming an expert on all things sleep is fascinating. And, she reports getting nine hours of sleep a night so she practices what she preaches. Bad sleep is linked to everything from health issues to mood problems. That phrase "everything is better after a good night's sleep?" It's legit. Want to increase productivity? You need to sleep. Want to be in a better mood? You need to sleep. Having issues with your partner? Try sleeping with or without that partner. Sleep divorces are on the rise for the third year in a row and Julia says some sleep honesty can be great for relationships and she makes a great pitch for a sleep split. "I'm not sleeping well, I don't think you are either. So here is something. We can try to fix that," says Julia.
