SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
Despite a general decline in in-person socializing, new research suggests the formula for a great night out hasn’t really changed. A survey of 1,000 millennials and 1,000 Gen Z adults (21+) found that the most memorable nights are still the ones that happen organically, with plans made on the fly. Conducted by Talker Research, the study shows that while drinking habits are becoming more flexible, spontaneity, connection, and inclusivity remain central. Many respondents shift their alcohol choices mid-evening, often mixing alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. For Gen Z, the top motivation for choosing a non-alcoholic beverage is avoiding the side effects of alcohol, while still enjoying the experience of having a drink. Millennials are more focused on feeling fresh and prepared for work the next morning, especially when drinking on weekdays. Ultimately, the survey found that good company and shared laughter matter far more than what’s in the glass. Some stats from the survey:
• 48% start the night having already decided whether they’ll drink alcohol
• 47% say that decision often changes during the evening
• Average drinks per outing: 3 alcoholic and 2 non-alcoholic
• Wine is favored by 56% of Gen Z and 54% of millennials
• 95% agree it’s important that everyone feels welcome
• The top “memorable night” factors: good company (61%), laughter (55%), genuine connection (50%)
BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN
‘Garfield’ is making a TV return. Paramount+ has picked up a new original 2D-animated series featuring the iconic lasagna-loving orange cat. Voicing Garfield is Emmy-winning actor-comedian Lamorne Morris, in a casting that will make Morris’ New Girl feline co-star Ferguson proud. Tentatively titled “Garfield”, the series, from Nickelodeon Animation Studios, is inspired by Jim Davis’ original comic strip, and is said to feature the chonky feline at his finest, most sarcastic and lackadaisical.
Jodie Sweetin, who played ‘Stephanie Tanner’ on “Full House”, says that one of her vivid memories is of her costar Dave Coulier and singer Alanis Morissette, who briefly dated in the early 1990s. Their relationship has long been rumored to be connected to Morissette’s hit song ‘You Oughta Know’, and during a recent appearance on the “Only Child with Bob the Drag Queen” podcast, Sweetin made it clear she believes those rumors are true. When asked if any particular line stood out to her, Sweetin pointed to lyrics about a new partner that looks like “an older version” of Morissette. Jodie quote: “His next girlfriend looked rather similar.”

SCOOP
OF THE DAY
Is it still a police station, if there aren’t any cops there? Ethiopia has launched a “smart” police station in Addis Ababa that, for the most part, operates without on-site staff. Instead of a front desk, visitors use tablet-equipped booths to report crimes, traffic incidents or other concerns. After entering information, they’re connected by video to a real officer at a remote location who asks questions and files the report. The pilot project is part of the government’s “Digital Ethiopia 2030” plan to modernize public services. Officials say the system could expand access to policing in areas with limited personnel. For now, officers remain on hand to guide users through the technology. Supporters see it as progress, but experts warn that low rates of internet access and digital literacy could leave many Ethiopians behind, when it comes to utilizing the new concept police services.
Passengers who
refuse to use headphones while traveling with United Airlines may
find themselves grounded. The airline has updated its rules to crack
down on passengers who play audio or video out loud during flights.
Its “contract of carriage” now says travelers who listen to their
entertainment on speaker can be denied transport, or even removed
from a flight — and repeated violations could lead to a permanent
ban. If someone forgets headphones, crew may provide free earbuds.
The rule falls under United’s safety and comfort policies,
alongside bans on smoking, offensive clothing, and making calls while
airborne.

A 90-year-old Michigan English teacher has earned a Guinness World Record…for spending 67 years in the classroom. Beverly Hannett-Price, who has taught at Detroit Country Day School since 1958, was honored at a surprise assembly with the title for the longest career as a female language teacher.
