Today's guest has long predicted that widespread systemic change would occur during the 20-teens and 20-20s -- as America and much of the rest of the world experience a replacement of the old order and the birthpangs of a new one.All of us who have lived through this period and epecially the year 2025 that just ended probably find it hard to argue that massive change -- culturally, politically, geo-strategically and economically -- is indeed now afoot.So how much more of this change still lies ahead?How disruptive will it likely be?And what kind of new system does it look like we'll have on the other side?For perspective, we have the privilege of welcoming back to the program demographer Neil Howe, co-author of the seminal book "The Fourth Turning" and its sequel "The Fourth Turning Is Here".WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

Suddenly, nuclear energy has become the belle of the ball when it comes to future electrical production expectations.After decades of demonization, this energy-dense, cost-effective, always-on solution -- statistically proven to be the safest in the world in terms of lives lost -- is now looked at as the future of green energy and a key component to winning the AI race in the long term.It also offers the promise of even cheaper, safer and more distributed energy as new technical solutions are being released around the world -- including small modular reactors, molten-salt technologies, and the use of less radioactive fuels like thorium.To help us understand what we can count on in the future from the coming nuclear energy boom -- as well as what we likely can't -- we're fortunate to speak today with Kirk Sorensen, President and Chief Technologist at Flibe Energy, who for decades has been a leading advocate for nuclear reactor innovation and thorium-based solutions.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?
