HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWie wirkt sich die schwindende Resilienz junger Menschen auf das Sozialsystem aus, Dr. Klaus Hurrelmann?Der Gen Z wird häufig vorgeworfen, nicht mehr belastbar zu sein. Stimmt das? Und wenn ja, was sind die Folgen für das Sozialsystem?
Der Soziologe Dr. Klaus Hurrelmann forscht seit den 80er-Jahren zur jungen Generation. Seine letzte Studie „Jugend in Deutschland“ hat ergeben, dass die allgegenwärtigen Krisen junge Menschen stärker belasten als andere Generationen. Genau daraus wird ihnen häufig ein Vorwurf gemacht, aber was bedeutet es unterm Strich, wenn junge Menschen an Resilienz verlieren?
In dieser Folge bespricht Host Ronja Ebeling mit dem Soziologen, welche Folgen die schwindende Resilienz den Gen Z auf das S...2023-09-1040 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertVerharmlosen wir den Alkoholkonsum von jungen Menschen, Laura?Warum verfallen immer mehr junge Frauen dem Alkohol?
In den 20ern kann man sich ausprobieren, die eigenen Grenzen austesten und die Wochenenden durchfeiern. Aber verharmlosen wir mit dieser Einstellung vielleicht auch den Alkoholkonsum von jungen Menschen?
Laura (28) ist seit drei Jahren trocken. Im Hörsaal war sie öfter angetrunken als nüchtern. Immer auf Pegel, damit ihre Ängste sie nicht übermannen. Sie hat auf der Toilette getrunken, in ihrer Tasche war immer eine Notfallflasche und im Job ist sie zwischendurch an den Kiosk gerannt, um sich die Kurzen reinzuhauen. Bis sie gemerkt hat: Aus ihrem anfänglichen Partyt...2023-01-2938 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertVerstärkt Social Media unseren Leistungsdruck im Job, Larena Klöckner?LinkedIn und Instagram digitalisieren die deutsche Anwesenheitskultur
Leistungsdruck, wer kennt ihn nicht… In dieser Folge geht es um die Fragen: Tue genug? Mache ich genug? Bin ich genug? Unsere Gästin Larena Klöckner hadert manchmal mit sich und genau diesen Fragen. Ganz besonders, wenn sie mal wieder auf LinkedIn oder Instagram liest, was Kolleg*innen derzeit für Projekte anstoßen. Larena ist Journalistin und erklärt, warum wir überhaupt den Drang haben, unsere Arbeit auch im Internet sichtbar zu machen. Larena selbst ist seit Jahren von Depressionen betroffen und berichtet davon, wie sich die Erkrankung und Leistungsdruck manchmal...2022-10-3032 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertIst Schutz vor Stalking eine Frage des Geldes, Cara-Julie Kather?Mietrecht: Betroffene von Stalking oder häuslicher Gewalt haben kein Sonderkündigungsrecht.
Im Jahr 2021 wurden 20.464 Fälle von Stalking in Deutschland polizeilich erfasst. Die Dunkelziffer wird allerdings auf 200 000 bis 300 000 Betroffene geschätzt. Die Differenz ist also riesig! Man weiß außerdem, dass 80 Prozent der Stalking-Betroffenen weiblich sind, oft sind die Stalker Ex-Partner oder Ex-Männer.
Bei Cara-Julie Kather war es kein besessener Ex-Boyfriend, sondern ihr Nachbar. Cara ist 22 Jahre alt, studiert und war gerade in eine neue Wohnung gezogen, als der Nachbar begann, sich komisch zu verhalten. Der fast 50-Jährige hatte sie aber schon lange vor ihrem Ei...2022-10-0248 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWarum leiden immer mehr junge Menschen unter Schlafstörungen, Fabian Grischkat?Ist wirklich nur das Handy Schuld an unseren Schlafstörungen?
In dieser Folge HUNGRY MINDS geht’s um das Thema Schlafstörungen. In keiner anderen Altersgruppe nehmen nicht-organisch bedingte Schlafstörungen so stark zu, wie bei den 19- 29-Jährigen. Woran liegt das?
Umweltaktivist Fabian Grischkat erzählt im Gespräch mit Ronja Ebeling von schlechten Nächten in Hotels, einer belastenden Nachrichtenlage und erklärt, wie wichtig ein Ausgleich fern vom Handy für ihn ist. Allein auf Instagram folgen ihm schließlich über 100K Menschen. Was ihn gleichzeitig beunruhigt? Immen mehr junge Menschen finden den vermeintliche...2022-09-0435 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWarum will Amazon in den Gesundheitssektor eindringen, Stefan Vilsmeier?Amazon investiert in die Gesundheitsbranche.
Der amerikanische Techkonzern Amazon arbeitet schon seit Jahren daran, in der Gesundheitsbranche Fuß zu fassen. Zuletzt bestätigte das Unternehmen, dass es in einem bisher geheimen Labor nach Krebs-Impfstoffen forsche. Um das gesamte Vorhaben von Amazon einzuordnen, spricht Ronja Ebeling mit Unternehmer und Erfinder Stefan Vilsmeier.
Mit gerade einmal 21 Jahren hat er sein Unternehmen Brainlab gegründet, das heute zu den Weltmarktführern auf dem Gebiet der bild- und computergestützten Chirurgie und Strahlentherapie gehört. Wir wollen klären, wann es gut ist, dass sich auch große kommerzielle Unternehmen in die Gesu...2022-08-1433 min

In den kommenden drei Folgen unterhält sich Journalistin Ronja Ebeling mit verschiedenen Expert:innen über die Zukunft unseres Gesundheitssystems. Weil wir in einer alternden Gesellschaft leben und das Gesundheitssystem in Zukunft stark belastet sein wird, ist das ein echt interessantes Thema - mit dem sich nicht nur Deutschland beschäftigt. China steht ebenfalls vor demografischen Herausforderungen und möchte ihnen nun mit einem präventiven Gesundheitssystem entgegenwirken. Das Ziel ist es, möglichst viele Gesundheitsdaten von Patient:innen zu sammel...2022-07-2436 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWie lösen wir uns vom gesellschaftlichen Kinderwunsch, Sina Scheithauer?Kann ein Kinderwunsch auch gesellschaftlicher Gruppenzwang sein? Wahrscheinlich.
Immer mehr Menschen entscheiden sich bewusst gegen Kinder und für ein anderes Leben. Deutschland ist im europäischen Vergleich sogar Vorreiter, wenn es um ein gewolltes Leben ohne Kinder geht. Gemeinsam mit der Sozialarbeiterin und Coachin Sina Scheithauer beleuchte ich den Weg der Entscheidungsfindung bei der Frage: Möchte ich ein Kind oder nicht?
Wichtig bei dem Thema ist wohl zu erwähnen, dass jedes 10. Paar mittlerweile Probleme hat, auf natürliche Weise schwanger zu werden. In dieser Folge geht es aber darum, selbst ganz bewusst die Entscheidung zu tr...2022-06-1241 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWieso arbeiten so wenige Frauen im Handwerk, Sandra Hunke?Sandra Hunke ist Anlagenmechanikerin und spricht über den Auszubildendenmangel im Handwerk.
Laut Zentralverband des Deutschen Handwerks fehlen derzeit bundesweit 250.000 Mitarbeitende. Der Personalmangel hat Folgen: Durchschnittlich liegt die Wartezeit, bis ein Auftrag begonnen werden kann, bei knapp neun Wochen. Im Bau- und Ausbaubereich sogar bei zehn bis 15 Wochen.
Sandra Hunke ist Anlagemechanikerin und möchte nun besonders junge Frauen dazu ermuntern, sich handwerkliche Berufe zumindest mal anzuschauen. Dazu hat sie jetzt sogar ein Kinderbuch geschrieben: „Bella Baumädchen – Du kannst alles sein!“ Im Podcast spricht sie über falsche Vorurteile, verschenkte Berufschancen und den Fachkräftemangel.

HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWie führe ich eine Gehaltsverhandlung, Ljubow Chaikevitch?Gehaltsverhandlung: Selbstwert ermitteln und Todschlagargumente aus dem Weg räumen.
Wir sprechen über das liebste Tabuthema der Deutschen: Geld. Die Inflation frisst uns ein Loch in die Brieftasche und die Preise steigen ins Unermessliche. Das macht besonders jungen Menschen zu schaffen: 26 Prozent der 18 bis 25-Jährigen waren laut dem statistischen Bundesamt schon vorher armutsgefährdet. Nun drohen immer mehr von ihnen abzurutschen und können dadurch auch nicht mehr fürs Alter vorsorgen.
Wie kommen wir also an mehr Geld? Wir müssen mehr fordern – und zwar von den Unternehmen, für die wir arbeiten. Aber wie geht man e...2022-05-0146 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertSollte Care-Arbeit bezahlt werden, Alexandra Zykunov?Alexandra Zykunov über unbezahlte Care-Arbeit, Mental Load und echte Gleichberechtigung
Ronja Ebeling hat zwar keine eigenen Kinder, aber sie ahnt, dass Elternschaft - und insbesondere Mutterschaft - häufig romantisiert wird. Über die Kehrseite der Medaille spricht nämlich kaum jemand: Über die Doppelbelastung, über die finanzielle Abhängigkeit von Frauen nach der Geburt eines Kindes, über Diskriminierung von Eltern im Job…
Wenn dann noch so Sätze kommen wie „Du hast dir das doch selbst ausgesucht“ geht die heutige Gästin an die Decke. Alexandra Zykunov ist Journalistin, Mutter von zwei Kindern und hat jüngst ein Buch geschrieben. Das...2022-04-1058 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWie beeinflussen Sprechstörungen unsere mentale Gesundheit, Anton Amelung?Was macht Stottern mit der Psyche?
In Deutschland stottern rund 800.000 Menschen, also knapp ein Prozent der Bevölkerung. Interessanterweise sind mehr Männer betroffen als Frauen. Einer von ihnen ist mein heutiger Gast Anton Amelung. Der Grafikdesigner stottert seit seiner Kindheit. Rein körperlich gesehen, verkrampft beim Sprechen Antons Hauptmuskel des Kehlkopfes, wodurch kein Ton produziert wird. Auf mentaler Ebene passiert aber noch viel mehr.
Mit Anton habe ich darüber gesprochen, was diese Sprechstörung mit seiner Person gemacht hat. Wie es sich anfühlt, ständig unterbrochen oder verbessert zu werden, weil es dem Gegenüber nich...2022-03-2046 min
HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertHaben wir ein falsches Bild von ADHS, Angelina Boerger?ADHS im Erwachsenenalter
In dieser Folge geht es um ADHS. Diese Abkürzung steht für Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-Hyperaktivitätsstörung. Viele verbinden ADHS mit Kindern, aber auch Erwachsene sind von der Störung betroffen.
Was das für eine betroffene Person bedeuten kann, erzählt Angelina Boerger. Die Journalistin hat erst in ihren 20ern die Diagnose ADHS bekommen und nimmt uns mit in ihren Kopf, in dem dauerhaft Kirmes ist. Sie spricht über ihre Diagnose und von den Begleiterscheinungen von ADHS, die viele gar nicht kennen: Rund die Hälfte aller Erwachsenen, die von ADHS betroffen sind, erkranken an Depres...2022-02-2751 min

In Deutschland wächst jedes fünfte Kind in Armut auf. Was macht das mit ihnen – auch langfristig, wenn sie erwachsen sind? Olivier David arbeitet als freier Journalist und Autor. In seinem Buch „Keine Aufstiegsgeschichte“ beschreibt er, wie ihn das Aufwachsen in Armut psychisch krank gemacht hat. Wie sein gewalttätiger Vater Oliviers eigenen Umgang mit Wut und Gewalt geprägt hat und wie er sich davon lösen konnte. Wir sprechen über mentale Gesundheit, Chancengleichheit, Privilegen und Klassismus.

HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWie divers sind unsere Ministerien aufgestellt, Tiaji Sio?Die 25-jährige Tiaji Sio ist Diplomatin und arbeitet für das auswärtige Amt. 2019 hat sie das Netzwerk „Diplomats of Color“ gegründet, um mehr Diversität in das Ministerium zu bringen.
Eine Studie des Bundesinstituts für Bevölkerungsforschung hat herausgefunden, dass in der Bundesverwaltung nur zwölf Prozent der Beschäftigten einen Migrationshintergrund haben – in unserer Gesamtgesellschaft haben allerdings 26 Prozent einen Migrationshintergrund, Tendenz steigend. Dementsprechend sollte Deutschland doch auch im Ausland repräsentiert werden, oder?
Wir sprechen heute über moderne Außenpolitik, über Chancengleichheit und über Annalena Baerbock, die vielleicht in naher Zukunft die erste Außenministerin wird.

HUNGRY MINDS - eine Generation, die fordertWie tickt die Pornoindustrie, Kira Kurz?Warum sind feministische Pornos wichtig, Kira Kurz?
Bereits in normalen Zeiten gehörte Pornhub zu den meistgeklickten Seiten im Internet, auch in Deutschland. 42 Milliarden Aufrufe weltweit waren es 2019. Und seit Corona sind die Zahlen laut dem Unternehmen um weitere 25% gestiegen. Anders gesagt: Es werden Milliarden verdient. Die Frage ist nur, unter welchen Umständen passiert das eigentlich?
Laut Recherchen der „New York Times“ sei die Seite verseucht mit Vergewaltigungsfantasien, rassistischen Inhalten, Kinderpornografie und Spycam-Videos, die zum Beispiel Frauen beim Duschen zeigen. Irgendwie scheint klar zu sein, dass die Branche dringend aufgeräumt werden muss. Eine Frau, die daran a...2021-11-1333 min

In „Mehr vom Leben“ beschreibt sie den Sterbeprozess von Kindern, sie erzählt von der Entscheidung mancher Menschen, die auf den letzten Metern des Lebens noch eine Zigarette zu rauchen wollen.
Im Podcast-Gespräch geht es um die Frage, ob wir in Deutschland in Würde sterben können und was das überhaupt bedeuten soll. Es geht um die Frage, ob auch psychisch erkrankte Menschen das Recht haben sollten, betr...2021-10-2334 min

Darüber spricht Ronja Forcher. Die Schauspielerin ist seit ihrer Kindheit Teil der ZDF-Serie "Der Bergdoktor". Im Gespräch geht es um vermeintliche Schönheitsideale, wie man sich von ihnen löst und die Frage, was Weiblichkeit überhaupt bedeutet.
