The Daily - ‘Modern Love’: Where Did All My Male Friendships Go?

Sam Graham-Felsen never imagined being lonely. Throughout his childhood and as a young man his life revolved around his friends. But when Sam got married and then had kids, going out with his friends almost felt like a luxury. After years of focusing on everything in his life except friendship, Sam began to realize he was missing something essential, and he decided to get his friends back.

On this episode of “Modern Love,” Mr. Graham-Felsen describes how he went from being a boy with a wealth of deep friendships to finding himself feeling lonely as an adult, and what he did to bring friendship back into his life.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The 1956 Suez Crisis (Encore)

In 1956, one of the most important geopolitical events of the post-war period took place in Egypt. 

The Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal, one of the most important waterways in the world.

In response, a coalition of several countries tried to take it back. However, it didn’t go as planned, and it signaled a major reshuffling of the geopolitical order. 

Learn more about the Suez Crisis and how it shaped the second half of the 20th century on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

WSJ Tech News Briefing - The New AI Data Trade, Part 1: Cashing In on AI

Generative AI models such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini need data, and the content creators supplying that data want to get paid. This is the first episode of “The New AI Data Trade,” a special two-part series diving into how data makes its way from a publisher or creator to be used by an AI model, and the conflicts that have arisen along the way. In this first episode, we explore how publishers have grown concerned over web scraping. This has led to lawsuits, with publishers such as Reddit, the New York Times and New Corp.’s Dow Jones suing to protect their data. Meanwhile, companies like Cloudflare are making it harder for AI companies to access data from publishers for free. This has opened the door for data-usage deals through startups such as Troveo. Coleman Standifer hosts.
