Marriage faces lower prioritization among America's young adults

Wedding bells are getting a bit quieter in this day and age, especially among young people. Over the last several years, there's been a notable decrease among adults in the belief that marriage is essential for a good life -- that's according to the American Family Survey. The Deseret News' Lois Collins has a new piece out on this topic, which she decided to write about thanks to a conversation on a recent flight to Europe. She joins the program to explain.

Today, he announced his selections: Jay T. Jorgensen and Stephen P. Dent. We hear from the governor and both of the appointees in a live news conference; Greg then shares his legal thoughts on the process and what happens before the two officially join the state's high court.

No Child Left Hungry: A deep-dive into how Utah kids find nourishment over the summer months

As Utah's kids head out for their summer break, many face a very real possibility of going without a decent, nutritious meal every day. In this special coverage on Inside Sources -- "No Child Left Hungry" -- Greg and Holly look at several ways Utah children can still get fed this summer.

Our first two conversations center on what schools are doing to help students; Kimberly Loveland, Director of Child Nutrition Programs at the Utah State Board of Education and Bobbie Beach, Nutrition Services Operations Manager at Granite School District, join the program.

Then, we shift focus to how non-profits are helping kids and families this summer, plus why it's so important that children get proper nutrition in order to thrive. Utah Food Bank CFO Kent Liston and Utahns Against Hunger Director Gina Cornia join the conversation.

Remote work negatively affects job market for new college graduates

Is artificial intelligence actually to blame for a dimmer job market for new college grads? Or is it something else? The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is out with some new data that looks at these situations and it turns out, something else is to blame: remote work.

At what point does the ceasefire with Iran cease to be a ceasefire?

President Trump says he isn't rushing to make a deal with Iran right now, even as the two sides continue to trade strikes amid a shaky ceasefire.

We get updates on the peace negotiations from NewsNation; Greg and Holly share their own thoughts on the status of the war and the involvement of other countries in the region.

More concerns raised over Utah's voter information privacy changes

As the state law on voter privacy changed, many Utah voters submitted "At-Risk" designation forms as a way to try and keep their information private. County clerks and the state lieutenant governor's office fielded those requests. But in the end, the state's efforts to help process those applications may have created a new concern for some voters. KSL Investigator Courtney Johns joins Inside Sources to explain what she found.

Is the war in Iran giving Putin free rein in Europe?

As we continue focusing on the war in Iran, are we forgetting about the other war in Eastern Europe? Russia's attacks on Ukraine have amplified in recent weeks and just last week, Russia fired a drone against Romania -- a NATO ally. So will NATO respond? Or are we so focused on the Middle East that Russian President Vladimir Putin has an opportunity to further his attacks on his European neighbors? Deseret News opinion editor Jay Evensen joins the program for this conversation.

President Trump faces several new legal hurdles

A series of legal blows against the President set off a firestorm of angry social media posts over the weekend. Among the legal troubles President Trump finds himself in is the settlement between the President -- as a private citizen -- and the President -- meaning the federal government. A federal judge has essentially reopened the president's lawsuit against the IRS, investigating allegations of fraud surrounding the settlement of the case. Greg and Holly discuss this development, as well as another legal order demanding the President remove his name from the Kennedy Performing Arts Center.

Utah Senate GOP leader demands changes to Box Elder data center

Utah Senate President Stuart Adams is now calling for the proposed data center in Box Elder County to be shrunk by 75% -- this would bring the complex down to around 10,000 acres. In addition to the overall size reduction, President Adams is also asking for greater water commitments, environmental performance standards, and more transparency. Greg and Holly discuss the newest demands and whether they'll make a real difference, or if it's all a campaigning tool ahead of the primary election.

Mosquitos learning to like DEET

What doesn't kill mosquitoes... might very well be making them stronger. That means you might have to resort to slapping yourself after all. A new study claims that mosquitoes can learn to like DEET, a common ingredient in bug repellent. The reason? We're not using it enough, and we're not using enough of it. Inside Sources hears from listeners about the ways they keep mosquitoes at bay.

Trump Accounts launch; "Anti-weaponization" fund hits a snag

This morning, a federal judge told the Trump administration: "nope... you can't give out money from this so-called anti-weaponization fund." Now the order is only temporary, but it also bars the administration from even moving forward with creating this fund.

Parents: are you planning and saving for your children's educational futures? If not, you're not alone.
