  Speaker 1: Cubby, Christine, and producer Kristen. Christine, what do you have now?
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: I just want to reassure people who may have some
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: clutter in their homes. Hi, it's me. I'm the problem.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: It's me. Because it can be disorienting and it can
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: be upsetting, Cubby, and we want to clear it out.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: But according to psychologists, it's okay for some people because
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: they say the world is divided into two camps. There
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: are neat freaks and there are people who happily say
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: yes to the mess. A cluttered home can sometimes signal stress,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: feeling overwhelmed, even depression. Yeah. This is what I'm understanding.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Because you feel like you're just behind it and you
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: can't catch up.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: I just can't tackle it.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Right. It feels overwhelming. But there are the type B
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: personalities who are considered more laid back. And these people
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: care less about the perfect organization and more about creativities, ideas, experiences.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Researchers found tidy spaces tend to encourage people to follow
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: the rules and do what's expected... Messier spaces may actually
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: help people think more creatively and break away from convention.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: So before you judge that pile of laundry on the chair,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: remember it might not be clutter, it might be innovation.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Or as one famous psychoanalyst supposedly said, don't clean up
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: the mess, I know exactly where everything is. Which is
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: very true, by the way.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: It's like people with a really bad desk. Yes.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: They know where everything is. Don't move anything. It's my mess.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: I know where everything is.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: It's so funny you're talking about this because my wife
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: and I plan on doing the garage today. We've been
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: talking about it since Monday. That's exciting. It's been warm lately.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: So we're like that first cool day this week, we're
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: going to open both garage doors and organize the garage.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Today's the day.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: So wish us luck.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: I do wish you luck. Report back because maybe this
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: will inspire Eric and me to do the same thing.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: It's a great day for cleaning out the garage. Sunshine
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: and a high of 68. Let's open the phones and
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: do a trivia battle. 1-800-222-1067. What's our prize?
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: We've got tickets to see Carly Rae Jepsen Saturday, May
• 1:56
