@heisdenji They should decide what works for them, rather than feeling obligated to follow tradition or pressure from family

A man says his girlfriend wants to keep her last name after marriage… and his family says taking hers would be “emasculating.” Caller: My girlfriend and I have been dating for a little over two years. We’ve definitely talked about marriage and one thing that’s come up is what last name we’re going to take. I grew up thinking the husband automatically gave the family its last name. I never even knew people took the woman’s last name or picked a different one. John Delony: That’s that male privilege, you don’t even have to think about it. Caller: When we first started talking about it, it really surprised me that she had such a strong opinion. She thinks it’s really unfair that women are expected to give up their last name. She really doesn’t want my last name because of that, it hurt my feelings, I felt rejected even though I know that’s not really what it’s about for her. John Delony: But still say just like a male to make this whole thing about you. Keep it going, Seth. Caller: The thing that bothers me is when I talk to my family and my friends, they’re all of the opinion that for me to give up my last name and take her last name would be very emasculating. John Delony: Hold on, they’re idiots. They don’t get a vote.

Tom cruise talked on how he kept thousands of Hollywood workers employed during COVID. Tom Cruise: “yeah, I did. Because look, my friends, it’s not just about the films I’m making” “i have never felt competitive with people and am like i want everyone to do well” “ a little story, i called one studio and i was like are you guys shooting and they replied saying yes, we are shooting our movies” “I called back a week later and asked, ‘How’s it going?’ They said, ‘Oh yeah, we’re shooting our films.” “I said, “Because we’re coming out next summer, you know. So we’re on this date. I hope you’re not on this date” “Then I called the studio I was working with. I said, ‘Look, all these guys are making movies. We got to make movies” “I was calling saying, ‘We have to set up the rules. Let’s make agreements so that we can get back to work” “Then I was calling governments and getting agreements with them.” “I shared everything with the other studios and my friends, saying, ‘This is how we’re doing it.’” “My crew is going to get paid during this time. I just kept everybody working.” “For our orchestra on Top Gun: Maverick, we got microphones into people’s apartments all over the world.” “They recorded their parts remotely, and we combined them to create a live orchestra.”

@Lou_inc I get the tenant's side too though.. if they've been getting a huge discount for years, maybe finding a middle ground would keep the relationship intact

Caller: My fiancé’s landlord wants him to pay $5,900 for plumbing repairs after a leak inside the wall. He’s been renting the house through a handshake agreement for the last three years. Dave Ramsey: Unless your fiancé caused the damage through negligence, that’s not his responsibility. Structural repairs like plumbing inside the walls are typically the landlord’s job. Caller: The rent has been below market because they’re family friends, so we feel guilty saying no. Dave Ramsey: Their generosity doesn’t mean you agreed to pay for major home repairs. Those are two separate issues. Caller: So how should we respond? Dave Ramsey: Be kind, thank them for helping with the rent over the years, but be clear: “We appreciate everything you’ve done, but we never agreed to pay for home maintenance, and we can’t cover a $5,900 repair.” Caller: I’m worried this could hurt the relationship. Dave Ramsey: They put the relationship in this position by asking you to pay their repair bill. Don’t let guilt push you into accepting a responsibility that isn’t yours. As you’re preparing for marriage, protecting your own financial future has to come first.

Neil deGrasse Tyson, the astrophysicist who runs New York’s Hayden Planetarium, says don’t kid yourself that we ever went to the moon for science. It’s ego. On The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett, Tyson breaks down the real reason for the moon race, and what’s actually up there. Neil deGrasse Tyson: “They’re geopolitical egos. Just ego. Did you see the hearings in Congress with the head of NASA, asking why did China land on the far side of the moon? What do they know that’s there that we don’t? Don’t delude yourself into thinking we ever went to the moon for science, then or now.” On what’s worth going for: “We think there’s water at the South Pole, so you go get the water. Maybe with a 3D printer you take the silicates from the moon’s surface, dump it in on top and make tools. You can’t take everything with you.”

Zlatan Ibrahimović told Brady what was going through his mind before his iconic bicycle kick against England. "The whole week I was thinking... I'm going to show England who I am." "The goalkeeper chipped it over me... I already knew where the goal was. The only thing I needed was the right angle." "From 10 players... 9 would stop the ball and waste time. Only the genius would do the one out of ten. That's me." "I watched the ball flying towards the goal... and prayed the defender wouldn't touch it."

IShowSpeed Says His Mom Told Him to Quit Streaming or Move Out . Shannon Sharpe: Your mom wasn't a fan of you streaming, was she? IShowSpeed: Not at all. One of my clips hit about 30,000 views on WorldStar, and there were a lot of hate comments. My mom saw it and gave me an ultimatum—either quit streaming or move out. IShowSpeed: I chose to keep streaming. I left home and moved to Detroit to live with my dad, who supported my dream and believed in what I was trying to build. IShowSpeed: Looking back, I'm grateful for both of my parents. They each played a role in helping me get to where I am today.

Caller: “I’m 66 and I have nothing saved for retirement” Caller: We’re 66, no retirement savings, no pension, and we’re renting. I’m picking up full time work in August. We just don’t know where to start. Dave: You need to treat this like a serious health diagnosis, the habits that got you here cannot continue. But you do have a path. Caller: What does that look like? Dave: You work for at least another 10 years. Save 15% of your income aggressively and you could reach around $350,000 in retirement savings by 76. Simultaneously, save for a large down payment and buy a very modest home or condo on a 10 or 15-year fixed mortgage, the goal is a paid off home by 76 as well. Caller: That feels tight but doable. Dave: The full time work starting in August helps significantly. Every dollar matters right now. Dave: And to anyone watching who’s 19 to 25, this couple’s situation is exactly why you start now. Compound interest is exponential. The same 15% saved in your 20s produces dramatically more than waiting until your 40s or 50s. It’s not about how much you save, it’s about when you start. Intentionality early changes everything.

Idris Elba says he didn’t know Stringer Bell was going to die… and admits he’s never watched “The Wire.” Idris Elba: “I didn’t ever meet the real character. I took my inspiration for Stringer from people I knew in the UK. Gangsters that were more suits and smiles than, “Yo.”” Idris Elba: “They were understated, listened more than they talked, and moved with grace instead of trying to be big and tough all the time.” Idris Elba: “The scene where Stringer dies… It was a really tough scene to shoot because I didn’t know Stringer was going to die in that episode.” Idris Elba: “I was like, “What? Wait… what? He dies? What do you mean? It was quite a surprise. I think it was a good move for the show.” Host: “Looking back on the show, how do you think it holds up 20 years later?” Idris Elba: “Famously, I haven’t seen it. I’ve seen some parts of it, I think it holds up. The writing was so good, and the perspective of that part of America was crystal clear.”

Brad Pitt and Damson Idris argue over whether fashion was better in the '90s. Brad Pitt: Oh, God, no. I strongly disagree. Damson Idris: Love you, mate, but I look gorgeous in 2025. Brad Pitt: If it's the '80s, there's no question. Not many people got the '80s right. The '80s were rough. Maybe Elvis Costello... but it took some of our best down. Even Bowie. Damson Idris: What was your go-to outfit in the '90s? Brad Pitt: Well, grunge had hit. So, you just picked your clothes up off the floor. “Good flannel, some ripped jeans... you're done.” “The '90s were pretty simple. But then you had that whole preppy side, which was really unfortunate for all of us.” “So... did you say fashion is better today than it was in the '90s?” “I'm going to disagree.” “It's not a hard line I'm drawing here.” Damson Idris: Strongly. I was born in the '90s... and I was wearing nothing.

Caller: “ I have a net worth of about $3 million and my Dad has asked for $55,000 to pay his debt. What should i do?” Caller: My 80 year old father is asking my husband and me for $55,000 to pay off his credit card and car loan debt. Dave: What’s your financial situation? Carla: We’re retired, debt free, net worth between $2 and $3 million but we’re on a fixed income and would have to dip into retirement accounts to do it. Dave: And your husband’s position? Carla: He’s firmly against it. But my dad is very persuasive and I feel guilty saying no. Dave: Carla, the answer is no. You have no moral, ethical, or biblical obligation to fund your father’s bad financial habits especially when manipulation is part of how he’s asking. Carla: But he’s 80 and he’s my dad. Dave: Being your dad doesn’t give him the right to your retirement. And “no” is a complete sentence. Don’t give him an encyclopedia of reasons, he’ll debate every one. Be brief, be gentle, and be firm. Carla: What can I offer instead? Dave: Gift him Financial Peace University. Give him the tools to help himself. That’s generous without enabling the pattern.

Elon Musk personally interviewed thousands of people across his companies, says his hiring philosophy is simple: Don’t look for a perfect resume. Look for proof someone is exceptional. Elon Musk: “I think I’ve got more training data on evaluating technical talent than almost anyone, given that I’ve done so many technical interviews and then seen the results.” “Generally, the thing I ask for are bullet points for evidence of exceptional ability.” “If somebody can cite even one thing where you go, ‘Wow, wow, wow,’ that’s a good sign.”

I've seen a lot of different versions of Alice in Wonderland over the years... But I don't think I've ever seen one quite like this. Back in 1988, Czech filmmaker released , a dark, surreal take on the classic story that has become a cult favorite for people who enjoy bizarre, unsettling films. The stop-motion animation, the old dolls, the stuffed animals, and the constant feeling that something isn't quite right make it feel less like a fairy tale and more like you're watching someone's nightmare play out. Have you ever seen this version of Alice in Wonderland, or is this your first time?
