To lead well today, you have to understand the forces that shaped yesterday and the ones reshaping tomorrow. You were made to Inspire Forward...and every episode helps you do just that.


The Ryan Vet Show is where leaders come to understand why the world, and the people in it, work the way they do. Hosted by Ryan Vet, USA Today bestselling author, generational futurist, and contrarian leadership thinker, the show blends research, lived experience, and narrative to help you navigate tomorrow with more insight, perspective, and practical wisdom.


Each week, Ryan explores the ideas shaping today’s workplace and culture:

  • Generational dynamics and the behaviors that form each cohort
  • Leadership and organizational psychology
  • Change management and the forces driving adaptation
  • Entrepreneurship and real-world decision making
  • Communication, influence, and human behavior
  • How the past explains the present and the present shapes the future


The show features two core formats:

  1. Long-form interviews with leaders, thinkers, entrepreneurs, and creators whose stories reveal the “why” behind their work, decisions, and impact.
  2. Weekly readings of the COLLIDE newsletter, where Ryan breaks down cultural shifts, generational insights, and leadership lessons with a story-rich, research-backed lens.


Whether you’re an executive, a manager, an entrepreneur, an educator, or simply navigating cross-generational tension, The Ryan Vet Show gives you the insight and tools to lead with clarity, curiosity, and intentionality.

If you want a show that’s intellectually grounded, practically useful, and deeply human — welcome.


This is your place to understand the world more clearly and lead it more thoughtfully.

  • Michaeleen Doucleff: Hunt, Gather, Parent, Dopamine Kids, and What Modern Parenting Gets Wrong
    2026/06/01
    What if everything we know about modern parenting is wrong? NPR global health correspondent and bestselling author Michaeleen Doucleff joins The Ryan Vet Show for the first guest episode of year two, on Hunt, Gather, Parent, Dopamine Kids, and what parents actually have power to change.Michaeleen Doucleff spent nearly 12 years as a global health correspondent at NPR, covering infectious disease outbreaks from Liberia during the Ebola crisis to rural villages on every continent. Then she became a mom, and realized something that would change her life and her work: the parents she met in Maya villages in the Yucatan, with Inuit families in the Arctic, and in Tanzania weren’t struggling the way she was. They were calm, their kids were helpful, and the whole model of family life looked different. That observation became Hunt, Gather, Parent, a New York Times bestseller that has sold more than a million copies in over thirty languages. Her follow-up, Dopamine Kids, takes on the science of screens, ultra-processed foods, and what they’re actually doing to children.In this conversation with host Ryan Vet, Michaeleen walks through what cross-cultural parenting research reveals about cooperation, conflict, and what kids actually need from the adults in their lives. She challenges the seventy-year-old myth that dopamine is the pleasure center of the brain (it’s not, it’s the wanting and craving system), and explains why that distinction matters for every parent dealing with screens, apps, or kids who can’t seem to put the iPad down. She talks about the ultra-processed food environment that nobody chose but everybody is living in, the Harvard research on why these foods are designed for overconsumption, and the practical sanctuaries parents can build at home to take their power back.Ryan and Michaeleen also discuss the loneliness of modern parenthood, the mental health crisis among kids, and why so much of what passes for parenting advice today is based on twenty-five-year-old research that hasn’t kept up with the science. The conversation closes with Michaeleen’s hope for Gen Alpha and Gen Z, and the early signs that a generation is starting to recognize what’s been lost.In this episode:How Michaeleen went from PhD chemist to NPR global health correspondent to bestselling parenting authorWhat the Maya, Inuit, and Tanzanian parents she lived with taught her that California couldn’tWhy “your kids are being born into their world, you’re not being born into theirs” is the most important parenting reframeThe cooperation model: including kids in adult work instead of orbiting your life around theirsWhy dopamine is not the brain’s pleasure system, and why that distinction matters for every parentHow ultra-processed foods, apps, and devices are designed to crank dopamine while killing pleasureThe five practical tools from Dopamine Kids for weaning kids off screens without leaving them empty handedWhy food cues, not hunger, drive most eating, and how parents can use that science in their favorThe case for sanctuaries: protected spaces and times in the home where devices don’t enterMichaeleen’s hope for Gen Alpha and Gen Z, and what the early data is showingReferenced in this episode:Hunt, Gather, Parent: What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About the Lost Art of Raising Happy, Helpful Little Humans by Michaeleen DoucleffDopamine Kids by Michaeleen DoucleffHarvard research on ultra-processed foods and appetite regulationRyan Vet’s COLLIDE essay on the loneliness of parenthood: ryanvet.com/collideConnect with Michaeleen Doucleff:Website (she is intentionally not on social media): michaeleendoucleff.comConnect with Ryan Vet:Website: ryanvet.comCOLLIDE Newsletter: ryanvet.com/collideLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/ryanvetInstagram: instagram.com/ryancvetBook Ryan as a Keynote Speaker: ryanvet.com/generational-speakerSubscribe to The Ryan Vet Show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Is the American Dream Dead or Just Different?
    2026/05/28
    The American Dream isn't dead. It's been redefined. And the generation rewriting it isn't asking permission.Generational futurist, USA Today bestselling author, and keynote speaker Ryan Vet traces the rise, the reality check, and the reframing of the most powerful idea in modern American identity. From historian James Truslow Adams coining "the American Dream" in 1931 to the Baby Boom suburban script of cars, mortgages, and the white picket fence, to Gen Z trading possessions for possibilities and collectivism for individualism, this episode follows the arc of an idea that built a nation and the cultural shift now rewiring what success even means.Ryan walks through the perfect storm that made the mid-century Dream feel statistically normal: postwar productivity nearly doubling, homeownership jumping from 43.6% to 61.9% between 1940 and 1960, the 1956 Interstate Highway Act funding 41,000 miles of road, television going from 9% of households in 1950 to 85% to 90% by 1959, the pill reshaping who could pursue a self-directed life starting in 1960. Then he zooms in on the present: real median earnings for 25 to 34 year olds matching Gen X at the same age, household wealth under 40 climbing about 30% from 2019 to 2024, fertility down to 1.6 children per woman, marriage ages climbing, and a generation defining wealth as flexibility, mobility, and experience instead of square footage.And he takes on the contradictory survey data head on. Only 27% of Americans told ABC News/Ipsos in 2024 that hard work still reliably gets you ahead. Yet 53% told Pew the same year that the American Dream is still possible. And 69% told the Archbridge Institute in 2025 that they have achieved the Dream or are on their way, with freedom of choice and a good family life ranking far above wealth as the markers of having made it. Three surveys. Three different stories. One country. Ryan explains why, and what it means for anyone trying to lead, hire, sell to, or raise the next generation.In this episode:Where the phrase "the American Dream" actually comes from, and why James Truslow Adams wrote it in the depths of the Great DepressionThe R.E.S.P.E.C.T. framework and how nearly every pillar of generational momentum accelerated the mid-century DreamWhy the Baby Boom Dream wasn't just a story Americans told themselves, it was a statistically normal outcome for a large share of the populationThe data that quietly refutes the "young people are poorer than their parents" narrativeWhy housing affordability is only part of the reason Gen Z and Millennials are delaying or skipping the suburban starter homeHow three major 2024 and 2025 surveys produce three different answers about whether the American Dream is dead, and what that contradiction revealsThe shift from collectivism to individualism, and why that single move reframes work, family, faith, geography, and ambitionWhat leaders, parents, and organizations get wrong when they assume the next generation is chasing the same Dream their grandparents wereReferenced in this episode:The Epic of America by James Truslow Adams (1931)Generations by Jean M.

  • Start Here: What Shapes Us, and Where Are We Going
    2026/05/25

    What shapes us? And where are we going? This is the Start Here episode of The Ryan Vet Show, the line in the sand between the essays that built this podcast and the conversations that will define what comes next.

    Generational futurist, USA Today bestselling author, and keynote speaker Ryan Vet introduces the next chapter of The Ryan Vet Show, a podcast about generations, culture, leadership, and the forces actually shaping the future. After more than a year of solo essays on generational change and what forms a culture, the show is expanding to include conversations with researchers, founders, reporters, educators, New York Times bestselling authors, and people with remarkable stories to tell. This episode is the bridge.

    Ryan walks through why generational labels like Boomer, Gen X, Millennial, and Gen Z so often fail us, why formation matters more than chronological age, and what it actually looks like to lead, parent, work, and build across generations in a culture that increasingly confuses disagreement with danger. He shares his personal origin, from incorporating his first business at fourteen years old to writing AI algorithms on napkins in 2009, long before the current generative AI wave. He sets the ground rules for how the show will handle conversation, curiosity, and disagreement in the next chapter.

    He also previews the guests joining year two of The Ryan Vet Show, including NPR global health correspondent and bestselling author Michaeleen Doucleff (Hunt, Gather, Parent and the dopamine kids book), Lenore Skenazy (founder of Free Range Kids and the TED speaker once called America’s worst mom), a third-grade teacher rebuilding play and recess, Facebook’s employee number 57, a digital nomad on his eighth country, an expert on private equity’s role in youth sports, and more.

    In this episode:

    • Why The Ryan Vet Show is expanding from solo essays to guest conversations in year two
    • The label lie, and why Boomer, Gen X, Millennial, and Gen Z shorthand misses what actually forms people
    • How formation, not chronological age, shapes a generation
    • Ryan’s personal origin, from his first business at fourteen to early work in AI and machine learning starting in 2009
    • The disagreement ground rules for the next chapter of the show
    • Why curiosity is one of the few real defenses against modern manipulation
    • What guests are coming next in year two of The Ryan Vet Show
