0:09
Speaker 2: Thursday morning, twenty second day of January. I'm West Thanks
0:14
Speaker 2: for joining me. It's the We're gonna have an ice
0:18
Speaker 2: storm or not, I mean parts of the country. Yeah,
0:22
Speaker 2: you're getting an ice storm. You're getting one. Conditions are
0:28
Speaker 2: right for it. You got the warm air coming up
0:30
Speaker 2: from the Gulf. Actually it's not so much warm air.
0:34
Speaker 2: It's just warmer moist air coming up from the Gulf
0:38
Speaker 2: that will slam into that low pressure system and cold
0:43
Speaker 2: air coming in from the north, and it's just all
0:46
Speaker 2: meeting at this point. Who knows how bout it's going
0:51
Speaker 2: to be in which parts of the country. The words
0:54
Speaker 2: catastrophic have been used, but you basically have that cold
0:58
Speaker 2: air slam coming into that moisture and that's where things
1:03
Speaker 2: get interesting. Parts of the country are going to see
1:06
Speaker 2: a lot of ice and icy rain and snow and
1:12
Speaker 2: wintry mixes and all those terms. And that'll be this
1:17
Speaker 2: weekend as it all plays out. Now, this is a
1:22
Speaker 2: very fluid forecast. Thankfully, I have a budding meteorologist in
1:29
Speaker 2: the house. He's been keeping me updated on things. I
1:33
Speaker 2: know that as of like last night, he was telling me,
1:36
Speaker 2: looking less like we're going to get too much of
1:39
Speaker 2: the nasty stuff in this part of the state of
1:42
Speaker 2: Georgia where we are kind of in west central Georgia,
1:46
Speaker 2: and basically maybe even Atlanta spared. Atlanta may get some
1:51
Speaker 2: of this stuff. He's you know, it's all we got
1:55
Speaker 2: to see how it actually plays out. But if if
2:00

4:29
Speaker 2: Do that. Don't go in there and grab all the water,
4:32
Speaker 2: and then people are going, where's all the water? And
4:34
Speaker 2: then you've got six months worth of bottled water and
4:38
Speaker 2: what are you gonna do? What are you gonna do
4:39
Speaker 2: with that? We're you gonna do with all that water?
4:42
Speaker 2: So just prep according to your needs. That's this being
4:47
Speaker 2: the responsible citizen, right, that's what you're doing. All right.
4:54
Speaker 2: So I have been watching a show called The Pit.
4:58
Speaker 2: I know I'm a little behind on it because they're
5:00
Speaker 2: now into season two. I guess as a new episode.
5:04
Speaker 2: I think they come out on Thursday, so a new
5:06
Speaker 2: episode tonight. And I've enjoyed the show. Really makes me
5:10
Speaker 2: miss Er. This is Noah Wiley who was on Er
5:14
Speaker 2: and he actually leads this show and it's about an
5:18
Speaker 2: emergency room in Pittsburgh, and it's got Noah Wiley, So
5:22
Speaker 2: it makes me miss Er really does right. I watched
5:26
Speaker 2: that show when I was young, and I just there's
5:29
Speaker 2: a few things that I would like to just say
5:31
Speaker 2: about it. It's good, it's very entertaining. I've enjoyed almost
5:36
Speaker 2: everything about it. It's a it's a roller coaster type show.
5:42
Speaker 2: It's a lot going on. It's been praised and lauded
5:46
Speaker 2: for how realistic the emergency room situation is. I have
5:49
Speaker 2: friends who work in emergency room situations and they're like,
5:52
Speaker 2: you know, yeah, this is pretty accurate, specific things that
5:57
Speaker 2: they definitely get right. Are they getting everything right? Of
6:00
Speaker 2: course not? Okay. One observation about a show like this
6:05
Speaker 2: and the way the show is designed is it's it's
6:08
Speaker 2: basically all the hours of like a fifteen hour shift
6:11
Speaker 2: at work, so each episode is one hour, is the
6:15
Speaker 2: way it plays out. A lot happens in this one
6:19
Speaker 2: day of the first season, a lot more than you
6:23
Speaker 2: could realistically explain it. In most cases have this house
6:26
Speaker 2: factor that comes in where it's like, hey, they got
6:29
Speaker 2: something in their eye and this is not a specific example,
6:32
Speaker 2: Hey they got something in their eye and it's like,
6:34
Speaker 2: oh no, they're gonna need to have like their you know,
6:38
Speaker 2: rectum zone shut or what you know, it's connected somehow
6:42
Speaker 2: to that or whatever, some weird this is a weird
6:45
Speaker 2: rear and then the next one is like the same thing.
6:48
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not quite that extreme, but most of
6:51
Speaker 2: the cases seem like, well, this is a basic broken arm,
6:53
Speaker 2: and it's like, well, yes it's a broken arm, but
6:55
Speaker 2: it's also leukemia. You know, there's always like this extra
6:59
Speaker 2: thing that goes with it, and you go, all right,
7:01
Speaker 2: that's a bit much like I think if it was
7:03
Speaker 2: a true real and I don't know how good and
7:06
Speaker 2: entertaining TV it would be, but every now and then
7:09
Speaker 2: you just come in and get your broken arm, men,
7:11
Speaker 2: and then you move on, right, if it was really realistic.
7:14
Speaker 2: And this is not a knock against the show because
7:17
Speaker 2: it makes it more entertaining. I'm just pointing out this
7:19
Speaker 2: on the realism. The other part of it is, yes,
7:23
Speaker 2: there's been criticism for there's a preachy factor to it.
7:30
Speaker 2: And I know people say, well, you think the TV
7:32
Speaker 2: hasn't already kind of been woke over the years, and
7:34
Speaker 2: there's always been these shows when the Little House on
7:36
Speaker 2: the Prairie was woke. Now it wasn't woke. Little House
7:41
Speaker 2: on the Prairie was not woke. Little House on the
7:43
Speaker 2: Prairie did have life lessons built into it, and yes,
7:47
Speaker 2: there were certain elements of things that were very on
7:52
Speaker 2: the forefront of where America was at the time. But
7:55
Speaker 2: keep in mind Little House on the Prairie was set
7:59
Speaker 2: at a time a lot of those things wouldn't have
8:01
Speaker 2: happened as far as the progressive nature of things. But
8:06
Speaker 2: this was being done in the eighties. It's a little
8:10
Speaker 2: different to go. We're kind of in a position where
8:15
Speaker 2: we're rewriting a little bit of history, but kind of
8:18
Speaker 2: putting things in perspective of maybe we can all do better.
8:21
Speaker 2: Keep in mind that there was a period, at least
8:25
Speaker 2: in my lifetime where we all went, maybe we'll just
8:28
Speaker 2: all try to live and be better people. And that
8:30
Speaker 2: was supposed to be good enough, and that was the
8:33
Speaker 2: message of Little House on the Prairie. Let's all just
8:35
Speaker 2: try to live, be good people, and we can all
8:38
Speaker 2: make some progress here together. And then suddenly that wasn't enough.
8:43
Speaker 2: We've entered a period where that's not enough. You can't
8:46
Speaker 2: just try to be a better person. You have to
8:48
Speaker 2: be on board with the following checklist of things, and
8:51
Speaker 2: here they are blah blah blah, and you have to
8:53
Speaker 2: not just be on you have to be a proud
8:58
Speaker 2: advocate for all of these things. Not then you're holding
9:01
Speaker 2: us back and you're useless and you're not a human being,
9:05
Speaker 2: and you deserve to be murdered. It's a big difference
9:10
Speaker 2: than what was going on when they were making Little
9:12
Speaker 2: House on the Prairie. That's my point about that. However,
9:16
Speaker 2: there are these little things, and TV has gotten to
9:19
Speaker 2: a point now where yes, they're trying to kind of
9:22
Speaker 2: reprogram us. I have talked about shows like Empire. There
9:28
Speaker 2: was a movie called Moonlight that won Oscar for Best Picture,
9:31
Speaker 2: even though it wasn't really a great movie. It was okay,
9:34
Speaker 2: shouldn't have won Best Picture that year, but it was
9:36
Speaker 2: all right. But two things that were trying to kind
9:41
Speaker 2: of reprogram the way Black America thinks about homosexuality. Because
9:46
Speaker 2: in two thousand and eight, Barack Obama becomes president and
9:52
Speaker 2: guess what, a lot of the people who voted for
9:54
Speaker 2: him that were black and first time voters didn't vote
9:56
Speaker 2: for Prop eight in California because they went, we don't
10:01
Speaker 2: support that, so California said, let's get this Hollywood thing
10:06
Speaker 2: on it and let's reprogram how they think now. I
10:11
Speaker 2: didn't overly feel like while watching the Pit I was
10:13
Speaker 2: being programmed, but I did feel occasionally it was a
10:16
Speaker 2: little left school, especially, and I just don't need that.
10:21
Speaker 2: I don't need that, especially when it's like we're checking
10:23
Speaker 2: all the boxes of all of these specific things, and
10:26
Speaker 2: I'm into season two now, when I'm looking forward to
10:29
Speaker 2: tonight's episode and yes, there's I'm sure going to be
10:31
Speaker 2: more things of this nature to look forward to. Was
10:36
Speaker 2: it such a distraction that it kept me from enjoining
10:39
Speaker 2: the show? No? Takes you out of it, though, because
10:41
Speaker 2: you do want some escapism, right. You want to be
10:43
Speaker 2: able to watch something. It's like you want to be
10:45
Speaker 2: able to watch a football game and you don't want
10:47
Speaker 2: to have to see in the end zone some message about,
10:51
Speaker 2: you know, white people suck or whatever whatever the message is.
10:55
Speaker 2: You know, oppressive, they're all they're they're the oppressors, touchdown whatever, whatever.
11:02
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know what they say. I
11:04
Speaker 2: just get tired of having to lose my bit of escapism,
11:09
Speaker 2: because that's what I want, that's what we watch TV
11:11
Speaker 2: for that's while we watch sports, that's why we watch movies.
11:15
Speaker 2: We just want to pull away from it a little
11:17
Speaker 2: bit and enjoy something. And you know, and when some
11:21
Speaker 2: sort of hard progressive, preachy thing that gets put in
11:25
Speaker 2: our face, like what some of the new Star Wars
11:29
Speaker 2: stuff has done, right, we didn't. We didn't need any
11:34
Speaker 2: of these things. We just want to watch Star Wars
11:37
Speaker 2: people with laser swords. That's what we want. Let's see that.
11:41
Speaker 2: And then when people say I don't like this, I
11:44
Speaker 2: don't I don't need this particular messaging in my life. Wait,
11:50
Speaker 2: you don't like it, you're racist. And that's what happens.
11:54
Speaker 2: That's the backlash that we get because you can't just
11:56
Speaker 2: say I don't like it. So I've enjoyed the pit
12:00
Speaker 2: I really have. I think it's very well written. I
12:02
Speaker 2: think some of the performances are absolutely fantastic. I think
12:05
Speaker 2: there's a couple of characters that are really stand out
12:07
Speaker 2: characters in the show as far as the way that
12:10
Speaker 2: they're portrayed, the acting in it. Brian Cranston's daughter is
12:14
Speaker 2: in it, and she's fantastic in the show. Easily my
12:18
Speaker 2: favorite character in the show for a few reasons. But
12:23
Speaker 2: with that said, this leads me into and it's funny
12:28
Speaker 2: because I have used the term after school special to
12:32
Speaker 2: describe the way that things are when you have that
12:38
Speaker 2: extra message in it. It doesn't have to be. It doesn't
12:40
Speaker 2: have to be you know, Bobby's on drugs. We're son,
12:42
Speaker 2: you don't need to be on drugs. And then you know,
12:45
Speaker 2: Bobby dies in a car wreck because he was doing drugs,
12:47
Speaker 2: and you don't have to do that. We don't have
12:50
Speaker 2: to go through that just to be entertained. And it's
12:55
Speaker 2: interesting that that was the term that was used because
12:58
Speaker 2: and I don't know normally talk about this guy, Crystallia,
13:02
Speaker 2: a stand up comedian. He was in the alts not
13:05
Speaker 2: too long ago in Hollywood, because this was all I
13:12
Speaker 2: guess going on during COVID or just after COVID kind
13:15
Speaker 2: of in the midst of all of this. It started,
13:17
Speaker 2: I guess in twenty twenty. He's forty five now, so
13:21
Speaker 2: this was like was six years ago, around six years ago,
13:24
Speaker 2: and he was accused of some sexual misconduct and involved
13:30
Speaker 2: a seventeen year old girl. It involved some messages that
13:34
Speaker 2: were being supposedly allegedly sent back and forth. Ultimately the
13:40
Speaker 2: girl involved in this dropped the lawsuit and dropped out
13:44
Speaker 2: of this, and that was the end of it, right
13:49
Speaker 2: the plane of voluntarily dismissing the lawsuit. That's the way
13:52
Speaker 2: it's worded. And crystaalia One has been basically saying how
13:58
Speaker 2: spineless comedians are, how quick they are to jump and
14:01
Speaker 2: attack one of their own, just over allegations. And he
14:05
Speaker 2: basically blamed COVID, he blamed George Floyd and the election,
14:09
Speaker 2: all those things that were going on. I guess he
14:10
Speaker 2: didn't specifically the election, but he was talking about twenty
14:13
Speaker 2: twenty being a hard time. I assumed the election was
14:14
Speaker 2: part of that. But he did a podcast, Try Not
14:19
Speaker 2: to Die, and he talked about all of those things
14:21
Speaker 2: and how spineless comedians are and how they basically just
14:25
Speaker 2: you know, wouldn't stick up for him. They were friends
14:27
Speaker 2: and then suddenly this comes up and they just they
14:29
Speaker 2: were afraid to be associated with him because of the accusations.
14:33
Speaker 2: That's why I don't talk about this guy very much.
14:35
Speaker 2: And I'll be honest, I don't know a lot about
14:37
Speaker 2: his comedy. I'm just bringing up this other little tidbit
14:41
Speaker 2: that he did on a different podcast. So he was
14:46
Speaker 2: talking specifically about I guess the Golden Hour is the
14:51
Speaker 2: name of the show, and he was talking about Marvel movies,
14:54
Speaker 2: and he was basically talking about superheroes in general, and
14:57
Speaker 2: he pretty much said that superheroes would all be right wing,
15:05
Speaker 2: like they would probably have to do the pretend to
15:08
Speaker 2: be woke, pretend to be sensitive, but in reality he's like,
15:12
Speaker 2: they would not be. And he's kind of doing a
15:14
Speaker 2: comedy bit, but it's there's an accuracy I think to
15:17
Speaker 2: some of what he's saying. He said, what I think
15:22
Speaker 2: they do though, is this talking about writers of shows
15:25
Speaker 2: and movies. He says, they try to figure out how
15:28
Speaker 2: to put gay characters or trans characters in it. And
15:32
Speaker 2: he says, you know, basically the fact that that's what's
15:36
Speaker 2: being kind of pushed into these things. But he's saying
15:40
Speaker 2: in reality that the superheroes, according to the way these
15:44
Speaker 2: scripts are written, they're all woke in movies, he says,
15:47
Speaker 2: but what superhero would be left wing? They wouldn't they
15:50
Speaker 2: have so much power. And he has a few things
15:54
Speaker 2: that I'm not going to repeat, but it's pretty funny
15:58
Speaker 2: how he says ironed Man would perceive the trans community.
16:03
Speaker 2: And then he says you know that the real Captain
16:06
Speaker 2: of America would be a Republican secretly voting for Trump.
16:10
Speaker 2: And you know, iron Man will be talking to Jarvis
16:12
Speaker 2: about woke women. It's the cleaned up version of it.
16:19
Speaker 2: And uh, he says also about the X men, who's
16:22
Speaker 2: a Republican Wolverine cyclops professor X. You think he's out
16:27
Speaker 2: there in his mind, but secretly he's like blank, these
16:31
Speaker 2: woke white liberal women killing them left and right with
16:34
Speaker 2: his brain. So he basically said that TV shows, movies
16:42
Speaker 2: and all this stuff with these political agendas, it's become
16:44
Speaker 2: an after school special. Oh that was interesting. This is
16:47
Speaker 2: why I'm pulling back to this, and this is where
16:49
Speaker 2: I was going with this. It's interesting that he's using
16:51
Speaker 2: that terminology as well. And he says to me, that's
16:54
Speaker 2: the agenda thing. It's when you're trying to control how
16:57
Speaker 2: people think. Yes, yes, I have been saying this for
17:01
Speaker 2: a while. I'm not the only one. I'm not taking
17:04
Speaker 2: credit for the thoughts. I'm just pointing out the fact
17:06
Speaker 2: that it's interesting to hear someone say this. And you know,
17:12
Speaker 2: I know he's just doing a bit. I know it's
17:14
Speaker 2: a comedy bit. I get it, but I do think
17:17
Speaker 2: he's going right when it comes to at least a
17:20
Speaker 2: lot of the Superheros. Even the guy that was kind
17:23
Speaker 2: of trying to to protest him just a little bit
17:27
Speaker 2: when it came to this, this bit gave him that
17:33
Speaker 2: Iron Man would definitely be a Republican. So but yeah,
17:36
Speaker 2: I'm enjoying the pit. I enjoy the show. I do.
17:40
Speaker 2: I just those occasional moments where you're kind of getting
17:43
Speaker 2: the after school special other things that kind of leave
17:45
Speaker 2: a weird taste in your mouth. Today's show brought to
17:47
Speaker 2: you by Columbus State University's Coca Cola Space Science Center,
17:51
Speaker 2: inspiring and educating the youth and future STEM leaders and
17:57
Speaker 2: STEM career holders that really of all ages. I mean,
18:02
Speaker 2: they do it for school age kids as school age
18:05
Speaker 2: kids visit the Coca Cola Space Science Center, but they
18:07
Speaker 2: also do it through their university programs where you can
18:10
Speaker 2: learn engineering, astronomy, physics, and the careers in space and
18:16
Speaker 2: STEM fields are booming right now, and you can learn
18:20
Speaker 2: more about maybe getting your degree on their website CCSSC
18:26
Speaker 2: dot org. While you're there, also check out some of
18:30
Speaker 2: their upcoming programs. They've got this incredible collaboration that they
18:35
Speaker 2: do with the schwob School of Music from Columbus State
18:38
Speaker 2: University called Music under the Dome. It's unlike any concert
18:41
Speaker 2: experience that you can get anywhere else. It's one of
18:44
Speaker 2: those things that when you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia,
18:47
Speaker 2: you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia. I mean,
18:50
Speaker 2: this is a major city attraction that happens right here
18:56
Speaker 2: in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca Cola Space
19:00
Speaker 2: Science Center and the new season of Music under the Dome.
19:03
Speaker 2: Check out upcoming dates for the shows, and also check
19:08
Speaker 2: out when the next Astronomy Night's coming up. Where you
19:10
Speaker 2: can get outside. Sometimes you do it at the Cocola
19:14
Speaker 2: Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere outside the
19:18
Speaker 2: city lights. You don't want any light interference, and you
19:20
Speaker 2: can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night events also
19:23
Speaker 2: on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As Sean Cruisin
19:27
Speaker 2: says Charlie, Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just remind
19:32
Speaker 2: you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science Center
19:36
Speaker 2: CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by Overhead
19:40
Speaker 2: Door Company of Columbus for all of your garage door needs,
19:43
Speaker 2: commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's
19:50
Speaker 2: time for. It's always good to get maintenance on anything
19:53
Speaker 2: that has parts that move and have electronics. The folks
19:57
Speaker 2: at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care of
20:00
Speaker 2: squaring that away for you, and while they're there, you
20:03
Speaker 2: can always ask them questions about some of the maybe
20:05
Speaker 2: cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
20:08
Speaker 2: Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it
20:12
Speaker 2: to be and you need some repair work done to
20:14
Speaker 2: the outside door. Maybe you need a brand new garage
20:17
Speaker 2: door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage
20:20
Speaker 2: door opens and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation
20:24
Speaker 2: issue that you've got. With colder or warmer weather, sometimes
20:27
Speaker 2: that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're looking
20:31
Speaker 2: at a situation where you'd like to add a screen
20:33
Speaker 2: door to your garage door system that you can put
20:36
Speaker 2: down and you can use your garage space as a
20:39
Speaker 2: sort of outdoor but indoor, you know, if you like
20:42
Speaker 2: to work on your own cars in there, or maybe
20:44
Speaker 2: you just want a little man cavid you'd like to
20:47
Speaker 2: be able to open the door up and not invite
20:49
Speaker 2: all the insects in. They can do that for you
20:51
Speaker 2: as well, and again they do after hours calls. There's
20:54
Speaker 2: nothing worse than that thought of having your car trapped
20:57
Speaker 2: inside your garage and your garage door won't open and
21:00
Speaker 2: you need somebody to come help, and they do those
21:03
Speaker 2: as well. Seven sixty five eight forty five hundred seven
21:07
Speaker 2: oh six three five eight forty five hundred O dccolumbus
21:11
Speaker 2: dot com more West Carol Morning Show right after the break.
21:23
Speaker 2: A new survey found that the average person hits their
21:26
Speaker 2: lowest energy point at exactly two six pm. Most people
21:33
Speaker 2: say that they need twice their current energy just to
21:35
Speaker 2: keep up with daily demands, and many believe that higher
21:38
Speaker 2: energy would boost both their happiness and their income. Low
21:43
Speaker 2: energy also derails good intentions. Nearly forty four percent skip workouts,
21:47
Speaker 2: and others miss out on social time, outdoor activities, and
21:50
Speaker 2: home cooked meals. Interestingly, if people suddenly had unlimited energy,
21:55
Speaker 2: their top wish would not be productivity. Eighteen percent said
21:59
Speaker 2: that they will spend more time with family and friends.
22:03
Speaker 2: Maybe that's what they need. Maybe it's not so much
22:06
Speaker 2: about the energy, Maybe just maybe it's about wanting to
22:13
Speaker 2: spend more time with friends. Maybe that's what it is,
22:16
Speaker 2: all right, outroverts, you got the introverts, extroverts, ambiverts. That's
22:26
Speaker 2: the extroverted introverts, I guess. But then there's I guess,
22:32
Speaker 2: maybe a new personality, the outrovert. This is from Meyers
22:38
Speaker 2: Briggs of course, and some of the others. Outroverts seem extroverted.
22:42
Speaker 2: They're social, comfortable in groups, and can even enjoy the spotlight,
22:45
Speaker 2: but deep down they recharge like an introvert. They present
22:49
Speaker 2: outwardly energetic and expressive, yet their nervous system works best
22:54
Speaker 2: in low stimulation plenty of downtime. Basically, they can blend
22:57
Speaker 2: in read a room and interact with ease. Too much
23:00
Speaker 2: social noise drains them quickly. Yeah, that's definitely sounding close
23:06
Speaker 2: to home there. In so many ways, everyone always perceives
23:12
Speaker 2: me as an extrovert because I can turn it on
23:17
Speaker 2: when I need to. But all of those things mentioned
23:20
Speaker 2: there definitely drain me. So you know, that's that's where
23:26
Speaker 2: I'm at. Anyway, it sounds like that could be me.
23:30
Speaker 2: All right, So here we are. I mentioned yesterday. If
23:33
Speaker 2: you got twenty one days in, you're probably in good
23:35
Speaker 2: shape with your resolutions or your new habits, or your
23:38
Speaker 2: fitness or whatever you're trying to do. Well, if you
23:42
Speaker 2: did not make it to the three week mark, well
23:46
Speaker 2: here you go. There are some different resolutions that you
23:51
Speaker 2: can make. Seven easy things that you can add to
23:54
Speaker 2: your routine that will improve your life, according to experts,
24:00
Speaker 2: seven easy things. All right, they're not overly complicated. They're
24:05
Speaker 2: actually pretty easy. All right, here we go. First thing,
24:11
Speaker 2: start your day with a glass of water. It doesn't
24:15
Speaker 2: even need explanation. But starting the day with the extra
24:18
Speaker 2: hydration and you wake up faster. And so that's one.
24:21
Speaker 2: So start your day with a glass of water. You
24:23
Speaker 2: haven't already done it, do it now. Stretch throughout the
24:26
Speaker 2: day doesn't have to be yoga, doesn't have to be
24:29
Speaker 2: a whole lot of effort. You just want to do
24:31
Speaker 2: some basic stretching throughout the day. Yes, and it will
24:35
Speaker 2: get you up off your butt, which is also good.
24:37
Speaker 2: But stretching is the main thing. Reading real physical books,
24:42
Speaker 2: preferably outside. They say that cutting back on the screen
24:47
Speaker 2: time so you're using actual paper outdoor light can help
24:50
Speaker 2: your vision. Even five pages a day makes a difference.
24:55
Speaker 2: Visiting a museum or an art gallery once a month.
24:59
Speaker 2: I know this a little bit more complicated, but you
25:01
Speaker 2: can still do this. Brushing and flossing thoroughly twice a day.
25:07
Speaker 2: Should be doing that anyway. But if you're not, add
25:11
Speaker 2: this to your routine, all right, morning, bedtime? Good? All right?
25:17
Speaker 2: Add a handful of nuts to your meals or just
25:22
Speaker 2: maybe even your snacks. But working in a couple of
25:25
Speaker 2: handfuls of nuts throughout the day, right, and reconnect with
25:29
Speaker 2: your inner child through nostalgia playful activities. Nostalgic activities strengthens friendship,
25:36
Speaker 2: happiness improves overall. Will be got it? All right? That
25:39
Speaker 2: can even be? I don't know, video games? Can it
25:41
Speaker 2: be video games? Is that allowed? If you want to
25:45
Speaker 2: make it be video games? I suppose you can make
25:49
Speaker 2: that work. I don't know. All right. Finally, this is interesting.
25:53
Speaker 2: Winter Olympics a couple of weeks away, Australia has grabbed
25:57
Speaker 2: a gold medal for promiscuity. The World Review has released
26:01
Speaker 2: a twenty twenty six Global Promiscuity Index, which shows that
26:07
Speaker 2: Australians ranked number one for attitudes and behaviors around intimacy adults.
26:12
Speaker 2: They report an average of thirteen point three partners. The
26:17
Speaker 2: index looked at forty five countries and used six different
26:21
Speaker 2: indicators including average number of partners, typical age of first experience,
26:26
Speaker 2: rates of STDs, and the legal status of prostitution and
26:34
Speaker 2: how socially accepted pre marital relationships are. Australia was number one,
26:39
Speaker 2: followed by Brazil, Greece, Chile, New Zealand, Germany, Italy, Switzerland,
26:44
Speaker 2: Thailand and South Africa rounding out the top ten. So
26:48
Speaker 2: there you go. That'll do it for this Thursday edition
26:52
Speaker 2: of the show. Thanks to our sponsors and patrons, Thanks
