Teen Summer Jobs in 2026: Are Young People Still Working?

Summer is here, but the jobs aren't. On this Finance & Business Wednesday, Abe Kamara leads a lively discussion with co-hosts Yahri Edmond and Ms. B on why 2026 is shaping up to be one of the toughest teen job markets in nearly 80 years. From automation eliminating entry-level positions to Gen Z chasing entrepreneurship and influencer dreams, the crew gets candid about what's really happening—and what young people and their parents should do about it. The panel debates whether every teenager should have a summer job, explores the growing disconnect between economic headlines and everyday reality, and shares practical advice for young people looking to earn money, gain experience, and prepare for adulthood. The Inner Circle Podcast amplifies voices, empowers minds, and elevates conversations that immigrant communities aren't having enough of—and this episode is no exception.

Miss B brings the celebrity tea — Jordyn Woods' redemption arc, the Kardashian drama that never seems to end, and why Timothée Chalamet courtside tells you everything you need to know about this Knicks moment. Plus, the crew debates who really counts as a New Yorker, what separates a great city from a world-famous one, and whether a Knicks title would become an even bigger cultural moment than the Super Bowl.
