- 0:14Speaker 2: This is a four day work week? What do we think?
- 0:16Speaker 3: Kind of like it? Yeah?
- 0:17Speaker 1: I mean it threw me off yesterday. I used to
- 0:19Speaker 1: had a Monday and a Tuesday on top of me.
- 0:21Speaker 1: I always didn't know what to do. Yeah, but now
- 0:23Speaker 1: I'm feeling like, well, all right, look at this so
- 0:25Speaker 1: almost over.
- 0:26Speaker 2: If this were every week. According to research at the
- 0:30Speaker 2: European Congress on Obesity in Istanbul, they feel that if
- 0:35Speaker 2: we worked less hours four day work weeks, obesity rates
- 0:39Speaker 2: would come down.
- 0:40Speaker 3: See you look at me, I'm working way too hard.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I need that extra day to hit the gym.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Study. That's exactly it, kubby, because if you had that
- 0:49Speaker 2: extra day, that's exactly what you would do. Right.
- 0:51Speaker 3: Of course I'd be active, of course he would be watching.
- 0:55Speaker 2: They're saying that what happens with the five day work
- 0:58Speaker 2: week and the hours that we are working, which can
- 1:01Speaker 2: extend even longer. We could be tired and reaching for
- 1:05Speaker 2: food to give us energy, and because we're tired, not
- 1:07Speaker 2: always the healthiest food.
- 1:09Speaker 1: I believe that because sometimes you're super tired, you're also
- 1:11Speaker 1: kind of like, oh no.
- 1:13Speaker 2: We just to eat it, like a kind of sad ish,
- 1:16Speaker 2: you know, or yes, and you just reach for stuff
- 1:18Speaker 2: you do not good for you, you do. So they're
- 1:20Speaker 2: saying with this four day work week, it would give
- 1:23Speaker 2: you a chance to get rid of bad habits and
- 1:24Speaker 2: make healthier choices. And they are part of the four
- 1:28Speaker 2: day week foundation. I mean they're serious.
- 1:31Speaker 1: Well again, articles pop up all the time about this
- 1:34Speaker 1: and it seems to never happen. But if we did
- 1:36Speaker 1: have a four day week, would it be the Friday
- 1:39Speaker 1: we're off or the Monday we're off.
- 1:41Speaker 3: Or Wednesday?
- 1:43Speaker 2: No, I think they keep it consistent.
- 1:45Speaker 1: Some people do like that midweek break, but I think
- 1:48Speaker 1: it has to be bookended.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Then it's like two Mondays a Friday or mon Monday.
- 1:52Speaker 2: I mean, I always feel like Friday, please, because by
- 1:55Speaker 2: Friday we're all like, you know, Energizer Bunny just wan down,
- 1:58Speaker 2: We were like dragging. I'm not sure they would choose Monday.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I would think Monday, because we all get the Sunday blues.
- 2:05Speaker 1: No matter how happy you are with your job, you
- 2:07Speaker 1: kind of have anxiety the day before you go back
- 2:10Speaker 1: to work, and there's that feeling that I guess you
- 2:13Speaker 1: could still get it on that Monday.
- 2:14Speaker 2: We'll get it on Monday instead.
- 2:15Speaker 1: It'd be nice to enjoy some football during the football season.
- 2:18Speaker 3: I have to worry about going to work.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Well, I think there's the whole argument right there. Do
- 2:22Speaker 2: it for football, do it.
- 2:23Speaker 1: For football, and gentlemen, Yeah, and your thoughts on a
- 2:26Speaker 1: for day work week. That will never happen, but I'm
