What Next | Daily News and Analysis - TBD | Tesla’s No Good, Very Bad Year

Elon Musk was promising an “epic” Q4 at Tesla last year. But 2022 ended closer to what might be considered an “epic fail,” with the stock price down 65 percent. In an uncertain economic environment like this one, how much blame goes to Musk for unloading $40 billion worth of stock and focusing on his shiny new social media network? Or are these just growing pains that every company goes through as they mature? 


Guest: Dana Hull, automotive and technology reporter for Bloomberg News in San Francisco


Host: Lizzie O’Leary

Consider This from NPR - For Black Men, Barriers To Mental Health Care Can Be Complex

The start of a new year can push us to think about how we take care of ourselves – our bodies or our minds. And for some people that can mean seeking help for mental health issues like depression and anxiety.

In some ways, being open about pursuing treatment for mental health concerns is becoming more commonplace. But for men who are socialized not to express vulnerability and keep emotions in check, seeking therapy may feel taboo.

Black men must also contend with the long history of neglect and abuse that has influenced how generations of African-Americans feel about health services, a lack of Black mental health professionals, and the understanding that shielding emotions are a way to face the pressures and dangers of racism.

Host Michel Martins talks with writer Damon Young, author of What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Blacker: A Memoir in Essays, and psychologist Earl Turner of Pepperdine University, on making therapy more accessible for Black men.

The Gist - BEST OF THE GIST: Speaker Of The House Edition

In this installment of Best Of The Gist, we take a look at the job of Speaker of the House. On Monday, Mike opened the show, after being on vacay for a couple weeks, talking about Kevin McCarthy’s elegant, seamless rise to the speakership, so we’re listening to that first. Then we’re digging back into The Gist archives to listen to Mike’s 2015 interview with author Harlow Giles Unger who tells us about the great compromiser of America’s formative years, former Speaker of the House Henry Clay. A contrast in courage, if you will.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara

Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - Meet The Journalists Whose Medium Is TikTok

TikTok has a reputation for its seemingly bottomless well of dance trends and lip sync videos, but there are as many sides of TikTok as there are users. It has quickly become a forum for cultural conversation, and many Gen Z users even get their news from the app. Reset hears from TikTokkers journalists, Chris Vazquez and Jack Corbett, about building an audience, keeping people from scrolling away, and what makes the app tick.
