A report from an IDF brigade on the frontier of the Gaza war
Also on the daily podcast: why consumers are behaving more like hermits and the “quiet quitting” craze

How prepared are they for the task ahead? The pandemic is over, so why are consumers still staying home, alone, and withdrawing from social activities (09:16)? And, why Gen-Z isn’t the only group “quiet quitting” (17:40). Audio clip courtesy of Zaid Khan (@zaidleppelin). Runtime: 23 min
