Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Oh, we're having some fun over there on Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net.
- 0:04Speaker 1: It's not just a podcast. It is a podcast network.
- 0:07Speaker 1: We're having fun with Music's Lost History. We give you
- 0:10Speaker 1: the song hints and the artist hints. And can you
- 0:14Speaker 1: tell us before we share the answer with you? Music's
- 0:17Speaker 1: Lost History, only on Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net. Enjoy your exploration. Hates me,
- 0:25Speaker 1: that question guy. You know, the dude that's always asking
- 0:27Speaker 1: questions because it's really fun to start doing the research
- 0:30Speaker 1: for answers. Such as, when did airports start including special
- 0:35Speaker 1: rooms to take your dog for a potty break before
- 0:38Speaker 1: the next flight? Hmm. Plus, how does raising your head
- 0:42Speaker 1: stop a person from snoring all night? My name is Arrow.
- 0:47Speaker 1: I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. I stand on
- 0:49Speaker 1: the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate.
- 0:53Speaker 1: I happen to call it the daily mess because it's
- 0:55Speaker 1: a chronological walk through an everyday world. It is my
- 0:58Speaker 1: morning writing. When a subject arrives inside of me, dude,
- 1:02Speaker 1: it's time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal,
- 1:05Speaker 1: but by doing the research, the picture actually becomes clearer.
- 1:09Speaker 1: This is the Daily Mess. When did airports start including
- 1:13Speaker 1: special rooms to take your dog or cat in for
- 1:16Speaker 1: a potty break before the next flight? Almost 20 years ago.
- 1:21Speaker 1: In fact, it was May 13, 2009. The U.S. Department
- 1:26Speaker 1: of Transportation stepped up and mandated that U.S. airlines had
- 1:30Speaker 1: to ensure that airports provided a service for animals to
- 1:34Speaker 1: not only relax, but to relieve their kidneys. Serving service dogs.
- 1:40Speaker 1: I mean, in the beginning, airports created fenced up areas
- 1:43Speaker 1: outside the building. The indoor version of the doggy rest
- 1:47Speaker 1: area actually materialized six years later in 2015 in Denver, Colorado.
- 1:52Speaker 1: This decision to make airports pet happy normalized the idea. Therefore,
- 1:57Speaker 1: it served as a huge inspiration for other businesses to
- 2:01Speaker 1: play along. It was finally happening, the pet-friendly moment. Those
- 2:06Speaker 1: who joined in included malls and shopping centers. Then hotels
- 2:10Speaker 1: leaped on board and the normal everyday jobs on the
- 2:14Speaker 1: corporate front. That's where Nashville, Tennessee has scored really, really big.
- 2:20Speaker 1: Their secret was having that working relationship with Mars Pet Care,
- 2:24Speaker 1: who help design their pet-friendly public infrastructure. Oh, by the way,
- 2:29Speaker 1: before I forget, there is one airport in America that
- 2:34Speaker 1: has been a huge leader with indoor pet bathrooms, fire hydrants, sinks,
- 2:39Speaker 1: artificial grass, and a waste disposal. That top dog airport,
- 2:44Speaker 1: are you ready for this? Is right here in Charlotte,
- 2:48Speaker 1: North Carolina. How about that? Coming up next, how does
- 2:53Speaker 1: raising your head up help a person from not snoring? Hey,
- 3:01Speaker 1: thanks for coming back to The Daily Mess. How does
- 3:03Speaker 1: raising your head help a person from snoring all night long?
- 3:10Speaker 1: Stop is a pretty big word. It doesn't really actually stop,
- 3:15Speaker 1: but a raised pillow does reduce the snoring. It reduces it.
- 3:19Speaker 1: It's because the gravity has changed and the tissues in
- 3:23Speaker 1: the back of your throat, well, your tongue and the
- 3:25Speaker 1: soft tissue fall backward into that throat and it doesn't
- 3:28Speaker 1: do so as deep. The important part is creating a
- 3:33Speaker 1: slight elevation. That is your answer. I'm not talking about
- 3:36Speaker 1: three or four damn pillows here. What I'm talking about
- 3:38Speaker 1: is a slight elevation. Now we've got to get a
- 3:42Speaker 1: new breathing problem under control. Since we're on the subject
- 3:46Speaker 1: of elevated body parts while we sleep, as much as
- 3:49Speaker 1: we're talking about our heads, it actually should be our
- 3:52Speaker 1: upper body. Legs are another body part that really needs
- 3:57Speaker 1: some love such as this. Give it that extra lift.
- 4:00Speaker 1: And let's give the knees some added love as well.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Resting your joints is always a better place and a
- 4:07Speaker 1: greater idea. Sleep specialists say the best all around position
- 4:11Speaker 1: for sleeping is a gentle incline in your mid back
- 4:16Speaker 1: through the actual head itself with your knees bent very,
- 4:20Speaker 1: very slightly. Yeah, so sweet. But here's how reality really
- 4:25Speaker 1: sets in. When you travel to other cities, do you
- 4:29Speaker 1: bring all your pillows? My wife does. And do you
- 4:33Speaker 1: take a chance on having multiple sleepless nights? I do.
- 4:37Speaker 1: You see what I mean? You don't take your pillows,
- 4:39Speaker 1: you're not going to have a good night's sleep. I'm Errol,
- 4:42Speaker 1: and that's The Daily Mess.
