- 0:22Speaker 2: As a teenager, I had a summer job pumping gas.
- 0:27Speaker 2: One week, an older guy drove up and said he
- 0:30Speaker 2: wanted to fill up. Then he got out of the
- 0:33Speaker 2: car with an umbrella, opened it and followed me around
- 0:37Speaker 2: as I worked, holding the umbrella over my head to
- 0:41Speaker 2: keep the sun off of me. I awkwardly thanked him
- 0:45Speaker 2: as he paid his tab and drove away. A week later,
- 0:49Speaker 2: he came back for a fill up. Again. Again he
- 0:53Speaker 2: got out of the car with an umbrella and opened it,
- 0:57Speaker 2: but this time he just stood there watching me work.
- 1:01Speaker 2: I asked, so you're not going to use that umbrella
- 1:05Speaker 2: to keep the sun off me this time, and he retorted,
- 1:11Speaker 2: watch it, young man, Fuel me once, shade on you,
- 1:16Speaker 2: fuel me twice, shade on me. These days, there is
- 1:32Speaker 2: no shortage of information. We live in an information age
- 1:38Speaker 2: where we can have the answer to any question almost instantly. However,
- 1:44Speaker 2: there is also much disinformation out there. Are we cautious
- 1:50Speaker 2: that the things we see, hear, and read are actually
- 1:54Speaker 2: the truth? We will talk about this in this week's
- 1:57Speaker 2: episode of Positively three six, But first we have our
- 2:03Speaker 2: trivia question of the day. Are you ready for it? Here?
- 2:07Speaker 2: It is what is the largest internal organ in the
- 2:12Speaker 2: human body? We will have the answer when we come back.

- 3:12Speaker 2: Do you know the answer to this week's trivia question?
- 3:16Speaker 2: The question was what is the largest internal organ in
- 3:21Speaker 2: the human body? The answer the liver. The liver is
- 3:27Speaker 2: the largest internal organ in the human body, weighing about
- 3:32Speaker 2: three to three and a half pounds in an average
- 3:35Speaker 2: sized adult. It plays a crucial role in detoxifying the blood,
- 3:40Speaker 2: producing bile for digestion, and storing nutrients. The liver also
- 3:46Speaker 2: helps regulate metabolism and is essential for breaking down toxins
- 3:52Speaker 2: and waste products the liver. Now you know, respecting truth
- 4:14Speaker 2: is essential because it forms the foundation of trust, integrity,
- 4:20Speaker 2: and meaningful relationships. Truth allows us to navigate life with
- 4:25Speaker 2: clarity and confidence, knowing that our decisions are based on
- 4:29Speaker 2: facts rather than falsehoods. When we honor truth, we foster
- 4:35Speaker 2: open communication, build credibility, and promote fairness and justice in
- 4:41Speaker 2: both personal and professional spheres. Ultimately, respecting truth strengthens the
- 4:48Speaker 2: bonds between individuals and helps create a more honest and
- 4:54Speaker 2: accountable society. The Lie said to the Truth, let's take
- 5:10Speaker 2: a bath together. The well water is very, very nice.
- 5:16Speaker 2: The Truth, still suspicious, tested the water and found out
- 5:21Speaker 2: it really was nice. So they got naked and bathed.
- 5:26Speaker 2: But suddenly the Lie leapt out of the water and fled,
- 5:30Speaker 2: wearing the clothes of the Truth. The Truth, furious, climbed
- 5:36Speaker 2: out of the well to get her clothes back, but
- 5:39Speaker 2: the world, upon seeing the naked Truth, looked away with
- 5:44Speaker 2: anger and contempt. Poor Truth returned to the well and disappeared, forever,
- 5:51Speaker 2: hiding her shame. Since then, the lie runs around the
- 5:55Speaker 2: world dressed as the truth, and society is very happy
- 6:00Speaker 2: because the world has no desire to know the naked truth.
