Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the shocking stabbing death of a Ukrainian refugee in North Carolina, fresh polling on America's youth drifting toward socialism, and global headlines from South Korea, Argentina, France, and China. From crime and ideology at home to economic and political turmoil abroad, today's brief shows how policies and power struggles are reshaping America and the world.   North Carolina Stabbing Case and Media Silence: Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska was murdered by Decarlos Brown, a repeat offender with schizophrenia and over 14 arrests. Released by Judge Teresa Stokes under restorative justice policies, Brown stabbed her on a Charlotte light rail after muttering, “I got the white girl.” Bryan argues, “This case isn't just about one victim and one perp. It's about a nation that is broken.”   America's Youth Drift Left — Socialism Rising: NBC, Rasmussen, and Gallup reveal stark generational divides. Democrat youth rank money and emotional stability above marriage, children, or faith, while Trump-voting men list kids as their top priority. Polling shows 53 percent of Americans under 40 favor a socialist president in 2028. Bryan warns, “We are living in the midst of a Leftist Revolution.”   South Korea Furious Over Georgia ICE Raid: Seoul condemns ICE for arresting 475 illegal Korean workers at Hyundai's battery plant. Trump responded, “[We] don't have people in this country who know about batteries… Maybe we should help them along and let some [Korean] people come in and train our people.” Critics warn expanded H1-B visas could enrage Trump's working-class base.   Argentina's Marxists Make a Comeback: Markets tank after the Peronist Party's unexpected win in Buenos Aires. President Javier Milei admitted the result was “much worse than expected” but vowed to continue his reforms, calling for “deep self-criticism.”   France's Government Collapses Again: Prime Minister François Bayrou lost a no-confidence vote, the third government collapse in a year. With debt at 114 percent of GDP, President Macron faces the choice of a new prime minister, snap elections, or stepping down.   LeBron James Pens Op-Ed for China: The NBA star praised China as “passionate and friendly” in a CCP newspaper essay, aiming to restore NBA access to the Chinese market after years of bans. Bryan calls it a clear case of “red Communist money turning bright American green.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Iryna Zarutska North Carolina stabbing, Decarlos Brown schizophrenia restorative justice, Judge Teresa Stokes Second Chances, NBC youth priorities socialism, Rasmussen Gallup socialism poll, Trump voters family priorities, South Korea ICE raid Hyundai plant, Trump H1-B visas batteries, Argentina Peronist Party comeback Milei, France government collapse Bayrou Macron, LeBron James China op-ed NBA

A major campaign is slowly gaining momentum across New South Wales, calling on the state’s criminal justice system to provide extra support for victim-survivors of sexual violence. To dive deeper into the topic, Jacinta Masters, the Campaign Manager at Fair Agenda, joins the show. For decades, sport’s been treated as a no-go zone for politics, a place to escape the world, not confront it. But that’s changing.

As neo-nazis become increasingly visible on streets all around Australia, producer Emilios Kwasner-Catsivelakis takes a look at the psychology of radical political views.

Both interest and conversions to the Catholic Church have been surging both here and in parts of Europe, especially among young adults. To be sure, secularism still dominates the culture, but the once common wisdom that an increasingly secular society would eventually lead to the death of Christianity and its evacuation from the public square doesn't seem so common anymore. What are the causes of this apparent religious revival among young people? What can we do as evangelists to maintain and build on the momentum? A listener asks about the most effective way to make an initial evangelical impact on young people. 00:00 | Introduction 01:20 | Concluding Bishop Barron's first diocesan synod 03:18 | Growing interest in Catholicism 08:45 | Men and Catholic interest 11:50 | Considering our recent isolations 14:08 | The rise and decline of wokeism 17:10 | Attraction to tradition 18:48 | Attraction to the liturgy 25:50 | The attraction of moral teachings 28:53 | Evangelical challenges 31:46 | Religious liberty 35:45 | Listener question: How do you best engage the young? 38:40 | Join the Word on Fire Institute Links: E&C Online article: https://www.wordonfire.org/articles/its-true-young-people-are-seeking-the-faith/ New York Post article: https://nypost.com/2025/04/17/lifestyle/why-young-people-are-converting-to-catholicism-en-masse/ Fox News article: https://www.foxnews.com/media/catholicism-sees-major-resurgence-among-gen-z-young-men-leading-revival Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/   NOTE: Do you like this podcast? Become a Word on Fire IGNITE member!

In this episode, host Michele Goodwin speaks directly to students, young scholars, and the next generation of leaders, and of course, the people who love them.  As she remarks, they are coming of age in a world that is complicated, challenging, and often unfair. This talk is about standing up when it's easier to look away, holding your ground when the crowd moves in a different direction, and acting with empathy and accountability in a world that often forgets what those values actually mean. This episode is a rebroadcast of a keynote Michele Goodwin delivered at the Law and Society Association's graduate student Early Career Workshop in 2025.Check out this episode's landing page at MsMagazine.com for a full transcript, links to articles referenced in this episode, further reading and ways to take action.Support the show

Why do young people not turn the Christ? Hosts Scott Brown and Jason Dohm, joined by guest Carlton McLeod, answer this question, giving ten common lies that ensnare unsaved youth: (1) you'll be deprived of pleasure; (2) faithfulness to God is impossible; (3) you'll be beset by trials and tribulations; (4) you'll be reproached; (5) you won't be prosperous; (6) you'll be unfashionable; (7) you will die young and miss all the fun; (8) you won't be able to keep it up for very long; (9) you have plenty of time; and (10) there are many ways to God. Rather than fall for these deceptions, young people should come to Christ without delay: “Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the difficult days come, And the years draw near when you say, ‘I have no pleasure in them'” (Eccles. 12:1).

For the latest episode in her series of podcast discussions, Through to Thriving, Tech Policy Press fellow Anika Collier Navaroli spoke to Vaishnavi J, founder and principal of Vyanams Strategies (VYS), a trust and safety advisory firm focusing on youth safety, and a former safety leader at Meta, Twitter, and Google. Anika and Vaishnavi discussed a range of issues on the theme of how to center the views and needs of young people in trust and safety and tech policy development. They considered the importance of protecting the human rights of children, the debates around recent age assurance and age verification regulations, the trade-offs between safety and privacy, and the implications of what Vaishnavi called an “asymmetry” of knowledge across the tech policy community.

Lee Morris' life story is a raw and powerful journey from bank robbery and brutal prison time to redemption. Growing up in Duchess County, New York, Lee's childhood was shaken by his parents' divorce, leading him down a troubled path. After moving to Florida as a teenager, he fell in with the wrong crowd, began robbing houses, and eventually escalated to robbing a bank — a decision that landed him four years in one of Florida's toughest youthful offender prisons. Even after his release, Lee continued down a destructive road and was sent back to prison 16 years later for drug charges. Today, he's sharing his story of survival, the realities of prison life, and how he finally turned his life around after years of chaos and incarceration. #PrisonStories #TrueCrimePodcast #BankRobbery #PrisonLife #FloridaPrison #RedemptionStory #SecondChances #LockedInWithIanBick Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Intro: The Bank Robbery 00:18 Lee's Troubled Childhood 03:02 Family Background and Early Influences 06:00 Growing Up in Poverty 09:19 Early Delinquency and Moving to Florida 13:14 Getting Involved with Guns and Crime 15:36 From House Robberies to Robbing a Bank 18:16 The Bank Heist Unfolds 20:54 Aftermath: Getting Caught and Facing Court 25:00 Prison: Sentencing and First Days 27:00 Surviving Florida Youthful Offender Prison 33:36 Prison Violence and Racism 40:44 Learning Prison Rules and Inmate Justice 45:12 Family Support During Incarceration 47:51 Smuggling, Confinement, and Prison Life 52:52 Release: Getting Out and Reentering Society 55:40 Back to the Streets: Drugs, Probation, and Temptation 01:01:03 Drifting Back into Crime 01:04:49 Major Drug Case and Second Arrest 01:07:40 Second Prison Term: Adult System 01:13:33 Contrasts Between Youthful Offender and Adult Prison 01:15:54 Lessons Learned From Prison 01:20:27 Work Release and Returning to Society 01:24:12 Making a Fresh Start: Moving North 01:26:00 Finding Support and Unconditional Love 01:28:03 Life Today and Reflections 01:29:00 Advice for Young People & Final Thoughts Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Student Loan Horror Story: A viral video highlights a 26-year-old with $90,000 in student debt paying a staggering 17% interest rate—and after years of $1,500/month payments, she owes more than the original amount. Student loan debt in the U.S. has exploded, rising from $187 billion to $1.4 trillion since 1990, while college costs are up 420%, but starting wages for graduates have only risen about 10% in the same timeframe—barely keeping up with inflation. College: Value, Costs & Alternatives: While college can still offer social, networking, and life-skill advantages, its economic ROI is often questionable unless required for a licensed profession (medicine, law, etc). Travis advocates for apprenticeships, gap years, internships, and real-world experience as superior options for most young people—letting them earn, learn, and avoid or minimize debt. He notes how much of the “go to college” push comes from outdated beliefs, social status games, and pressure from parents seeking legacy or community standing—not just from what's actually best for the student in today's economy. Why “Predatory Lending” Applies: Most 17-year-olds can't get a credit card, but can sign up for tens of thousands in college debt—often without understanding interest or repayment terms. Student debt is uniquely punishing: it cannot be discharged in bankruptcy, and high rates or compound interest can quickly balloon balances, trapping young adults for decades. Practical Advice for Young People & Parents: Parents should help teens be ruthlessly honest about risk, debt, and career clarity before co-signing on massive loans. Young people should: Take a gap year to try different jobs or internships Only consider college if a) the cost is manageable or b) a clear career path requires a degree Use tools like ChatGPT or simple calculators to run interest/amortization scenarios—understand full cost of loans. Seek real-world exposure in target fields before committing—many adults end up not using their major, making huge debts even less justifiable. Big Takeaway: The “American college pathway” is no longer one-size-fits-all. Life is long—choosing work experience, entrepreneurship, trades, or even pausing before college are often smarter risk/reward bets than saddling yourself with unpayable debt. Recommended Actions: Don't take college-for-college's-sake advice—research outcomes, run the numbers, and weigh costs. Talk openly with teens about status, debt, and future regrets. Use this episode and viral cautionary tales as starting points for family conversations before borrowing.

  In our fast-changing world, few technological developments of recent years have had a bigger impact on young people than the emergence of instant communication and social media. And while it's not difficult to identify the positive impacts of these phenomena, the worrisome impacts are also numerous. And this is a trend that seems certain […]

Your dopamine system is being hijacked every day, and the way to reclaim it might surprise you. This episode reveals how pain, pleasure, and addiction are wired in your brain, and how to use that knowledge for real brain optimization, resilience, and longevity. You'll discover why your dopamine levels control motivation, focus, mood, and even cravings—and the science-backed strategies that reset your neuroplasticity, metabolism, and reward system. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Anna Lembke, Stanford psychiatrist and bestselling author of Dopamine Nation. She is one of the world's leading experts on addiction, compulsive behavior, and the neuroscience of reward pathways. With decades of clinical work and groundbreaking research, she explains why dopamine has become the modern lens for understanding desire, distraction, and dysfunction—and how we can hack it to upgrade human performance. They break down how dopamine drives addiction, why pain can reset your reward system, and how simple practices like fasting, cold therapy, and supplements affect your brain chemistry. You'll learn how nicotine, GLP-1 drugs, and even nootropics alter dopamine sensitivity, and why overstimulation from social media, pornography, and ultra-processed food is creating an epidemic of anhedonia. The conversation also covers how functional medicine and biohacking can protect your mitochondria, restore your natural dopamine balance, and make your brain more resilient. You'll Learn: • Why dopamine itself is not addictive—and what really drives addiction • How pain, hormesis, and “dopamine fasting” can reset your reward system • Why social media and digital overstimulation create chronic dopamine deficit states • The role of GLP-1 drugs, nicotine, psychedelics, and other substances in rewiring dopamine • How functional medicine and supplements help restore dopamine balance • The connection between dopamine, mitochondria, fasting, cold therapy, and longevity • Why radical honesty and self-binding are powerful anti-addiction hacks This is essential listening for anyone serious about hacking dopamine for better focus, sleep optimization, metabolism, and long-term brain health. Whether you're curious about the link between dopamine and neuroplasticity, looking to upgrade human performance with smarter not harder tools, or just want to know how to stop dopamine hijacks from ruling your life, this episode gives you the science and strategies you need. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind.

On July 14, 2023, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' (USCCB) Secretariat of Child and Youth Protection released the 2022 Annual Report – Findings and Recommendations on the Implementation of the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People. This is the twentieth such report since 2002 when the U.S. bishops established and adopted the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People, a comprehensive framework of procedures to address allegations of sexual abuse of minors by Catholic clergy and establish protocols to protect children and young people. The international World Youth Day celebration takes place every 2-3 years, typically in the summer months and on a major scale. The next one of these will take place soon, from Tuesday to Sunday, August 1 to 6, 2023, in Lisbon, Portugal with millions of people and the Holy Father. The U.S. Bishops invite all young people across the United States to be a part of this global event - in person, digitally, or stateside. Learn more at https://www.usccb.org/topics/world-youth-day/international-celebration.
