- 0:24Speaker 2: like these little games.
- 0:25Speaker 3: All right, it's time for another segment of how hard
- 0:30Speaker 3: can It be?
- 0:35Speaker 2: So today I've said us all a test. It's a
- 0:38Speaker 2: little bit different from our previous challenges. It's not physical.
- 0:41Speaker 2: It's actually probably mental. I'd say today we're not allowed
- 0:45Speaker 2: to say a particular word or a series of words
- 0:50Speaker 2: for the next half an hour. And it's a word
- 0:53Speaker 2: used a lot in radio, right like it relates to
- 0:55Speaker 2: our listeners. In fact, that's one of the words you
- 0:58Speaker 2: can't you can't say listener, listened, listen, listening.
- 1:05Speaker 4: So the word we can't say is listening.
- 1:07Speaker 1: Listening and any word that's.
- 1:09Speaker 5: Like it and listen and listened and anything related to it.
- 1:13Speaker 2: So, but can we just clarify that when we say related,
- 1:17Speaker 2: Like if I say, you know, within earshot or.
- 1:22Speaker 6: I think that's the idea, you've got to think on
- 1:25Speaker 6: your to say that. Yeah, I just don't say the
- 1:28Speaker 6: word listening.
- 1:29Speaker 2: And our our family or our gold ninety six f
- 1:32Speaker 2: M family, is that the way to go I work
- 1:35Speaker 2: for listeners?
- 1:36Speaker 6: Well, yes, yes, friend Susie, our producer has given us
- 1:41Speaker 6: a couple of stories that we she hasn't let us
- 1:44Speaker 6: look at in advance and wants us to talk about
- 1:47Speaker 6: them without mentioning the aforementioned forbidden.
- 1:51Speaker 1: Words that start We started, have we?
- 1:53Speaker 3: Well, we're about are we about to start? Am I
- 1:55Speaker 3: going to? Am I I going? Wear off?
- 1:58Speaker 4: We can turn us to sorry over now?
- 2:02Speaker 5: Are we looking at it now? Yes, we're look at it.
- 2:04Speaker 3: Yeah, turn over.
- 2:05Speaker 4: The headline is music. Oh god, it's a second word
- 2:10Speaker 4: in music.
- 2:13Speaker 6: Observance shows no mental health benefits in twenty thoy Twin records.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Wow, okay, it's amazing. Yeah.
- 2:23Speaker 3: So for many music is a source of of comfort.
- 2:26Speaker 3: It's a mood booster. We all use it remedy for loneliness,
- 2:30Speaker 3: you know, when you want to be, you know, feeling
- 2:32Speaker 3: a bit lonely, go on and enjoy the oral sounds
- 2:38Speaker 3: of music.
- 2:39Speaker 2: But the quick big question they're asking is you know
- 2:42Speaker 2: frequently people who indulge in this type of activity, which
- 2:48Speaker 2: is involves music. Yes, yes, yes, yes, actually it leads
- 2:54Speaker 2: does it lead to better mental health?
- 2:57Speaker 6: Well, the study examined participants music observation habits, particularly how
- 3:04Speaker 6: much music they do hear and whether they use music
- 3:11Speaker 6: hearkening hawk I hear a song, whether they use it
- 3:17Speaker 6: to regulate their mood.
- 3:18Speaker 3: Okay, so study examined participants HARKing habits.
- 3:24Speaker 5: HARKing habits I reckon we ban HARKing from.
- 3:26Speaker 4: Now is good? Harking's good.
- 3:29Speaker 2: I just reckon that people acoustically engaged often often eavesdropping
- 3:36Speaker 2: on what's going on in this studio.
- 3:39Speaker 4: So I'm not too sure what this is about.
- 3:41Speaker 6: But they did talk about twins twenty twin records, So
- 3:45Speaker 6: when comparing genetically identical twins that differ in music similar
- 3:50Speaker 6: hearing habits, they found that the twin who indulged in
- 3:56Speaker 6: music to regulate mood was not more likely to have
- 3:59Speaker 6: mental health problems. And this suggests that shared familial factors,
- 4:03Speaker 6: rather than minding the music, likely explain the relationship between
- 4:09Speaker 6: the music and mental health.
- 4:10Speaker 1: What do you mean by minding the music.
- 4:11Speaker 4: Well, you know, hearing it, hearing it sort of.
- 4:20Speaker 3: Orally absorbing, absorbing.
- 4:22Speaker 5: Sonically connected connected.
- 4:26Speaker 2: I like that absolutely are they eavesdropping on what we're doing.
- 4:32Speaker 5: So to to.
- 4:35Speaker 6: These findings underscore the importance of distinguishing between targeted therapeutically
- 4:40Speaker 6: guided music interventions and every day.
- 4:44Speaker 4: Music hearing habits, and while.
- 4:47Speaker 6: Structured therapies can have positive effects, these benefits cannot be
- 4:50Speaker 6: generalized to every day has.
- 4:52Speaker 1: No idea what we're talking about the article.
- 4:56Speaker 2: So you go to the top of the class at least,
- 4:58Speaker 2: that's all I'm That was very, very good. This is
- 5:02Speaker 2: a bit like footy commentators trying not to say superstar
- 5:06Speaker 2: or pressure.
- 5:07Speaker 3: Avoiding a word is harder than leaning on it.
- 5:10Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly, So thanks for hanging out.
- 5:13Speaker 4: We did okay there, that was good. It's when you're
- 5:15Speaker 4: least expected it's going to trip someone out.
- 5:17Speaker 1: That's right.
- 5:18Speaker 3: We're sorry you had to listen.
- 5:19Speaker 4: To that in the mouth for saying that.
- 5:30Speaker 3: Sorry about that.
- 5:32Speaker 5: Will We will come back back and drop the lbombs
- 5:35Speaker 5: if we can.
- 5:37Speaker 4: If we can, that's one black mark against your name.
- 5:42Speaker 1: We're on word watch.
- 5:43Speaker 3: We're on word watch.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Okay, so it's late persisting with the noise we're making
- 5:50Speaker 2: and not talking about what that word is.
- 5:52Speaker 3: We keep going here.
- 5:54Speaker 6: See how producer has given us another story, which is
- 5:58Speaker 6: bound to feature.
- 6:00Speaker 3: Word a bit that shall not be spoken.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Like the knights that say me, you're educated when you
- 6:10Speaker 2: use hearken in the last break.
- 6:14Speaker 5: Rules tonight?
- 6:17Speaker 6: All right, all right, don't it Men who pay attention
- 6:22Speaker 6: to their lives are more successful?
- 6:25Speaker 1: Well, I certainly agree with that.
- 6:28Speaker 3: So taking on board what your partner has to say
- 6:31Speaker 3: isn't just about maintaining a harmony in the relationship. It's
- 6:34Speaker 3: also an unexpected asset for your professional career.
- 6:37Speaker 1: A yeah.
- 6:38Speaker 2: Well, it also says here that there's a strong correlation
- 6:42Speaker 2: between maritl being irridjacent your awareness, awareness, and success. And
- 6:53Speaker 2: I certainly agree with that because I often in the workplace,
- 6:57Speaker 2: I often conduct myself in a way as to seem
- 7:01Speaker 2: like I am actually taking on board, taking on board
- 7:06Speaker 2: you're an ears open kind of when my my wife
- 7:11Speaker 2: is speaking to me very wise, I think that's a
- 7:13Speaker 2: that's a very speaking all right.
- 7:16Speaker 5: The research.
- 7:17Speaker 4: The research says women often bring strong emotional intelligence, an
- 7:23Speaker 4: ability to anticipate risks, and a keen understanding of context,
- 7:28Speaker 4: and these qualities complement the more analytical or rational approach
- 7:31Speaker 4: that some men favor.
- 7:33Speaker 3: So what you're saying is it's good should we hear.
- 7:36Speaker 4: That if you well, yes, if you hear that, it's
- 7:39Speaker 4: always to hear your your significant time.
- 7:43Speaker 6: Okay, it will always all go well for your day.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Well, that's redundant.
- 7:51Speaker 5: Your vocabulary is out blowing us out the door.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Lest I know that I'm supposed to be one.
- 7:58Speaker 3: But basically what you should around the home orally?
- 8:01Speaker 1: Orally?
- 8:02Speaker 2: Yes, well, I don't think you've absorbed the habits, the
- 8:07Speaker 2: simple habits you have to take on, because if you
- 8:08Speaker 2: look on page two here, you must you must establish
- 8:12Speaker 2: a weekly ritual yep, thirty minutes of discussion.
- 8:18Speaker 1: On professional issues in an.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Atmosphere of kindness and accepting of that noise into your ears.

- 8:42Speaker 2: do you think of this opportunity, darling?
- 8:46Speaker 5: Have I properly assessed the risks? Can you imagine saying
- 8:49Speaker 5: that to your what?
- 8:51Speaker 6: In short, it says the best managers in the workplace
- 8:55Speaker 6: are often those who know how to hear beyond the
- 8:59Speaker 6: professional sphere.
- 9:01Speaker 4: Hearing starts at home.
