Nate Miles joins Jeremy Keil to discuss how the Allspring retirement research reveals trends of concern among retirees and the options they have to address them. Mike and Susan did what many couples do. They saved diligently. They crossed the $1 million mark before retirement. They felt prepared. But when it came time to make actual retirement decisions—when to claim Social Security, how to withdraw from their accounts, how to manage taxes—they realized something uncomfortable: They had spent decades saving… but very little time learning how to retire. This example speaks directly to what this year's Allspring Retirement Study uncovered. As Nate Miles shared on the “Retire Today” podcast, this wasn't a small or struggling population. Participants were 50+ with at least $200,000 in investable assets. A third of retirees surveyed had $1 million or more. Yet only six out of ten retirees said they feel financially secure. That gap between assets and confidence tells us something important: retirement success isn't just about how much you've accumulated. It's about how well you transition into distribution. The Social Security Mistake One of the most striking findings involved Social Security. Nate explained: “One third of our respondents claimed Social Security at 62 years old… because they believed the value or the benefit of waiting was not worth it. Yet they underestimated the value of waiting by 50%.” Many respondents assumed the benefit grew at 4% per year when delayed. In reality, for most people, it grows closer to 8% annually between full retirement age and 70. That misunderstanding alone can permanently reduce lifetime income. In the MAKE step of the 5 Step Retirement Master Plan, Social Security is foundational. For many retirees, it represents 30–40% of their guaranteed income. Optimizing that decision isn't optional—it's essential. And yet, education around it is surprisingly thin. As Nate pointed out, there are “560-something permutations” of Social Security claiming strategies. It's ubiquitous, but complicated. And too often, people default to the earliest date simply because it feels tangible. The Tax Blind Spot The second major theme of the study? Taxes. Only about 20% of retirees reported using a tax-efficient withdrawal strategy. Think about that. After decades of saving in multiple account types—traditional IRAs, Roth IRAs, brokerage accounts—most retirees are simply withdrawing from wherever feels convenient. Nate put it plainly: “Taxes matter for everyone, not just the high net worth crowd.” In the KEEP step of retirement planning, how you withdraw can meaningfully impact how long your money lasts. Choosing between Roth and traditional dollars. Managing capital gains. Coordinating withdrawals with Social Security timing. These aren't abstract academic exercises. They are practical levers that affect real income. Yet as Nate observed, most people spent 40 years having taxes withheld automatically from paychecks. They paid taxes—but they never actively managed them. Retirement flips that script completely. Now you must choose. The Psychological Shift No One Talks About Nate shared that many retirees are comfortable spending above their retirement number—until their account dips below it. The moment it falls beneath that original balance, panic sets in. Even if the plan accounts for drawdown. Even if it's sustainable. Even if it's expected. That's what I call the “accumulation paradox.” Economists assume you'll build your assets and gradually spend them down toward zero. Real people assume the number should stay intact forever. But retirement isn't about preserving a scoreboard. It's about funding a life. This is where the SPEND step meets the INVEST step. You saved to use the money. And yes, at some point, your balance may begin to decline. That's not failure. That's function. Advice Still Matters One of Nate's most memorable lines was this: “Monte Carlo gets 10,000 cracks at retirement. You and I get one.” We don't get multiple trial runs. We get one real-life retirement. That's why quality advice matters. The study suggests people with pensions are more likely to use annuities. People with advice are more likely to use tax strategies. And people who understand their income sources are more confident. Retirement is no longer just accumulation. It's design. And design requires intention. If you're within five years of retirement—or already there—ask yourself: Have I optimized my Social Security? Am I intentionally managing taxes? Do I have a clear income floor? Am I emotionally prepared to draw down assets? Because as this year's research shows, even million-dollar portfolios can feel uncertain without a plan. Retirement isn't about guessing well. It's about designing well. Don't forget to leave a rating for the “Retire Today” podcast if you've been enjoying these episodes! Subscribe to Retire Today to get new episodes every Wednesday.

Damir and Sam are joined by Cambridge philosopher Henry Shevlin of the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence for a raucous and rambling conversation about the state of artificial intelligence. Is it about to get conscious, take all of our jobs, and destroy the world? Or is all this industry hype?Henry starts off the conversation asserting that AI already has a kind of “agency,” even if it's not yet the full kind that some skeptics are looking for. Damir and Sam push back on AI's reliability and proclivity to hallucinations, and wonder whether AI can create anything genuinely novel or creative.The conversation turns to autonomy and risk. Can “artificial superintelligence” ever be reached, asks Sam? Henry points to AI coding agents already improving themselves. Damir objects to anthropomorphizing AI and prefers treating these systems as powerful tools capable runaway failures — but nothing more. Henry disagrees, ending the conversation with a plea for AIs getting consideration as moral entities at some point.Required Reading:* “Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies,” by Nick Bostrom (Amazon).* The Creative Mind: Myths and Mechanisms, by Margaret Boden (Amazon).* “Disambiguating Anthropomorphism and Anthropomimesis in Human-Robot Interaction,” by Minja Axelsson and Henry Shevlin (arxiv.org).* “Real Patterns,” by Daniel C.

Spring training brings the kind of Yankees update that always raises eyebrows as Cam Schlittler is pulled off the mound with back tightness. The guys break down why any pitching issue, even a “no big deal” one, feels different than it would for a position player, especially with the rotation already shorthanded. Is this something that simply pushes Schlittler back a turn or two, or a warning sign that keeps him off the Opening Day roster entirely? Plus, a bigger discussion on how minor setbacks for young pitchers can quietly snowball once the calendar starts moving.

I have been thinking a lot about AI lately, and specifically about whether we should be worried about our over-reliance on it. Because if I am being completely honest with myself, I use AI for absolutely everything now. Every email that comes in gets pasted into Claude for analysis. Every project brief gets discussed with it. Every piece of writing gets shaped by it. When Claude goes down, my entire workflow grinds to a halt.So should I be worried about this dependency? Should you?After spending the last few weeks working through this question, I have landed somewhere that might be useful to share. Because I think the conversation about AI is happening right now in organizations everywhere, and the dividing line between those who embrace it and those who resist it matters more than most people realize.The dependency questionWhen I first noticed how reliant I had become on AI, my immediate reaction was concern. I started thinking about all the things that could go wrong. What if Claude disappeared tomorrow? What if I was outsourcing too much of my thinking? What if I was losing critical skills?But then I started looking at all the other dependencies in my working life:If the internet goes down, work stopsIf the power goes off, my life stops.If AWS servers fail (which seems to happen every other week), half the tools I rely on become uselessIf Figma stops working, design work haltsJust one more dependencyWe have built our entire professional lives on top of dependencies we barely think about anymore. AI is just one more in that stack.The question is not really whether we should be dependent on it, because that ship has already sailed for most of us. The question is what kind of dependency we are building.The thinking questionThe more interesting concern for me is whether AI makes us stop thinking. I have heard this worry from a lot of people, and I understand where it comes from. Because when you watch someone paste a problem into ChatGPT and blindly implement whatever comes back, it does look like they have outsourced their brain.But I think this misunderstands what most of us are actually doing with AI.Three layers of thinkingThere are different levels of thinking that happen in any given day:Strategic thinking about project direction, what problems need solving, what approach makes senseAnalytical thinking about whether an idea is sound, whether evidence supports a conclusion, whether a design solves the actual problemMundane thinking about how to word an email, how to structure a document, how to format a proposalAI as a thinking partnerWhat I have found is that AI handles that bottom layer beautifully. When a client sends me a long rambling email with five different questions buried in three paragraphs of context, I no longer spend mental energy untangling it. I paste it into Claude and say, "Summarize the key questions here." Then I think about my answers. I tell Claude what I think about each point. Sometimes I ask for its perspective on one or two where I am genuinely uncertain, not because I cannot think through it myself, but because having a sounding board helps me think better.When I worked in an agency, I had colleagues for this. I would turn to Marcus or Chris and say, "What do you think about this?" I do not have that anymore. AI fills that gap. It does not replace my thinking. It helps me think more clearly by taking away the low-level cognitive load and giving me something to bounce ideas against.The value questionWhere this gets really interesting is in what it lets me deliver to clients.The landing page playbook exampleI worked on a project recently where a client wanted to improve the conversion rate of their landing pages. They had a budget that, in the past, would have stretched to maybe three or four sample landing pages and a conversation about why I built them that way. That would have been useful, but limited. They would have had some examples to work from, but not much guidance on how to replicate the approach themselves.With AI, I was able to create an entire playbook. Detailed guidelines for every component. Design principles explained with examples. A system they could use again and again. I delivered probably four times the value in about a third of the time it would have taken me before. The strategic thinking was all mine. The understanding of what makes landing pages convert came from 30 years of doing this work. But the documentation, the articulation, the packaging of that knowledge into something comprehensive and usable came from working with AI.Why clients still need expertiseMost of my clients will not do this work themselves, even with AI:They do not know what questions to askThey do not have the pattern recognition that comes from seeing hundreds of projectsThey cannot evaluate whether the output is actually good or just sounds convincingThey haven't the time to review and iterate upon the output to improve things.That is what they are paying me for. AI does not replace that expertise. It amplifies what I can do with it.The real conversationI think what bothers me most about the anti-AI sentiment I see is that it misses the point. People post about "AI slop" and declare they are "AI-free" as if that is some kind of badge of honor.The conversation should not be about whether to use AI. That question has already been answered by the market. The conversation should be about how to use it well. How to maintain the strategic thinking while leveraging the tool. How to keep the human insight while letting the machine handle the grunt work. How to deliver more value in less time without sacrificing quality.Because in my experience, the people who need UX professionals are not suddenly going to do it themselves just because AI exists. They still do not have the time. They still do not know what questions to ask. They still cannot evaluate quality. What changes is that the UX professionals who embrace AI can deliver significantly more value than those who resist it.The symbiosis advantageI am not threatened by AI. I am empowered by it:It lets me hold far more complexity in my head than I could beforeIt lets me process larger amounts of informationIt lets me deliver more refined, more thorough, more valuable workAll the things AI does badly (high-level strategy, judging quality, understanding human needs, driving projects forward) are exactly the things clients need me for.So I am leaning into this dependency. Deliberately. Because it allows me to deliver more value in less time. My clients get better work, delivered faster, for the same investment. That is why I am in business. AI has become another tool in my arsenal, like Figma or analytics platforms or any of the other things I rely on to do my job well.
Is The Most Dangerous Thing Trump Can Do In this episode, Chuck Todd unpacks a week where political theater carried real consequences, from Pam Bondi’s high-profile hearing and the Justice Department’s bruised credibility to renewed controversy over the Epstein files and why Trump appears uneasy about what could surface. Chuck explores how Trump’s actions—from refusing to help key Republicans like John Cornyn in Texas to escalating trade and tariff fights that split his own party—may be doing tactical damage to GOP midterm prospects, even putting critical races in Michigan and beyond at risk. He also examines donor frustration, the political fallout of Trump’s UAE corruption scandal, and why internal Republican divisions could shape whether Democrats win a narrow or sizable House majority. Finally, Chuck looks at the surprisingly strong jobs report, the murky influence of prediction markets, and why, if Democrats ultimately capture the Senate, Trump himself may be the biggest reason why. Then, founder of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America Paul Rieckhoff joins for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from the football field to the battlefield and into the halls of power. Paul shares how his family's experience with Vietnam shaped his own path into the military and explores why the scars of Iraq and Afghanistan haven't left the same political mark as Vietnam did. The discussion dives into the state of today's all-volunteer military, raising concerns about recruiting under Pete Hegseth's leadership at the Pentagon, the politicization of military culture, and the promotion of a specific ideological agenda within the Department of Defense—including what it means for democracy when the most powerful military in the world operates with fewer checks than ever. The conversation then shifts to the growing power of political independents, with Paul making the case that unaffiliated voters and veteran candidates could serve as a moderating force in American politics. From the potential impact of just a handful of independent senators to why no military veteran has won the presidency since George H.W. Bush, Paul and Chuck explore what it would take to break the two-party stranglehold. They also touch on the challenges of independent media, how national security can be a clarifying lens for consuming news, and why Paul believes every voter should consider declaring independence—arguing it gives them more power, not less. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment. Get your wardrobe sorted and your gift list handled with Quince. Don't wait!

In this episode, Chuck Todd reacts to the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl, then examines the political shockwaves rippling through Washington after Donald Trump’s controversial and widely condemned post about the Obamas, placing it within the broader context of Trump’s long history of racial controversies and growing unease inside his own coalition. As criticism emerges from Republican lawmakers, conservative legal voices, and even Olympic athletes, Todd explores signs that Trump’s influence may be weakening—fueled by internal party fractures, controversial foreign policy moves, and a leadership circle increasingly insulating him from reality. With a surge of congressional retirements, warning signs from special elections, and historical trends favoring the opposition party, the conversation turns to whether Republicans are heading toward a major electoral setback—and whether worsening controversies, including ongoing fallout from Epstein-related revelations, could further reshape the political landscape before November. Then, former White House Chief of Staff & Mayor of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel joins the Chuck ToddCast for a wide-ranging conversation on the forces shaping America’s political and economic future. He discusses why the 2028 election will be about what’s ahead—not what’s behind—and argues that understanding AI, energy, and the changing nature of work is now essential for anyone seeking leadership. Emanuel makes the case that education and vocational training remain the clearest pathway to the middle class, warns about declining reading proficiency, and examines what schools must do to prepare students for a rapidly evolving world. He also explores how both parties lost their way on education, why fundamentals matter, and what voters are really demanding from the system. The discussion then turns sharply to politics, power, and the health of American institutions. Emanuel weighs in on Trump-era controversies, Congress’s weakened role, and concerns about election integrity and the post-election environment. He outlines how Democrats can rebuild a winning coalition by welcoming independents and former Republicans, focusing on economic fairness, and preparing for a potential 2026 wave election. The episode closes with a global lens—covering U.S.–Israel dynamics, political polarization, wealth inequality, and whether national service could help reunite a fractured country—framing a central question: if the midterms fail to reset the trajectory, what comes next for American democracy? Finally, Chuck comments on the fallout from the mass layoffs at the Washington Post, hops in the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit the history of the Iranian revolution and answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.

Former White House Chief of Staff & Mayor of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel joins the Chuck ToddCast for a wide-ranging conversation on the forces shaping America’s political and economic future. He discusses why the 2028 election will be about what’s ahead—not what’s behind—and argues that understanding AI, energy, and the changing nature of work is now essential for anyone seeking leadership. Emanuel makes the case that education and vocational training remain the clearest pathway to the middle class, warns about declining reading proficiency, and examines what schools must do to prepare students for a rapidly evolving world. He also explores how both parties lost their way on education, why fundamentals matter, and what voters are really demanding from the system. The discussion then turns sharply to politics, power, and the health of American institutions. Emanuel weighs in on Trump-era controversies, Congress’s weakened role, and concerns about election integrity and the post-election environment. He outlines how Democrats can rebuild a winning coalition by welcoming independents and former Republicans, focusing on economic fairness, and preparing for a potential 2026 wave election. The episode closes with a global lens—covering U.S.–Israel dynamics, political polarization, wealth inequality, and whether national service could help reunite a fractured country—framing a central question: if the midterms fail to reset the trajectory, what comes next for American democracy?

So, what does God actually mean when He says "give your mind a rest." Let's see what scripture has to say about this directive from God.

"Fighting crime" is often used as a justification for many of the Trump administration's policies — from mass deportations to its actions in Venezuela to its crackdown in Minnesota — despite the fact that crime is at a historic low, and has been falling for decades. We talk to Meg Anderson, NPR's criminal justice correspondent, about how that taps into Americans' disproportionate fears about crime, and how that makes scenes like what we see in Minneapolis possible.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
