  Speaker 1: Listening to a podcast to me is like listening to music.
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: You don't stay in the same genre. You're all over
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the place, which is the reason why at arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: 17 different podcasts to choose from. Because we know that
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: you're everywhere. Why not be there with you? I like
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: asking questions. And the reason why is because the fun
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: begins when you start researching for answers, such as Gracie Allen.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: She's said to be one of the funniest entertainers in
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: American broadcast history. Did she have writers or was it
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: all about Gracie Allen? Plus, why has being burned out
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: become the accepted behavior at home as well as the workplace?
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: My name is Arrow. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: then activate. I call it the daily mess, a chronological
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: walk through an everyday world. Yeah, it's my morning writing.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: tend to throw things to the side because we think
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: we're going to deal with it later on. Well, when
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: a subject arrives inside of me, I know it's time
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal, but
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This is
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: The Daily Mess. My wife and I watch ancient shows
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: of television because it seems the writing and production were
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: really onto something that feels completely lost today. Who were
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: the writers of of such shows as George Burns and
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Gracie Allen. I mean, all of these years later, and
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: the jokes still have an impact. Believe it or not,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: there were four people who came together as one to
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: make not only the TV show Unforgettably In Touch, but
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: even the radio show still carries a powerful punch today.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: The writers were Paul Henning, who went on to create
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: the Beverly Hillbillies, Sidney Joseph Perlman, Nat Perrin, and George
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Burns himself. But, but, but, but, but, but. Something to
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: keep in mind. Although Gracie Allen had writers, it was
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: her unique delivery and character that brought her legions of
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: fans and followers. She's described as being illogical logic and
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: charmingly confused. And let it be known, she depended on
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: improvising to generate the perfect timing of landing that joke.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: This has led multiple generations to believe that she was
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: her own writer. It's all about the delivery. Hey, coming
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: up next, why does it feel like everybody is burned out? Hey,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: welcome back to the Daily Mess. Why does it feel
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: like we are surrounded by a bunch of burnouts? And
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about potheads or drug abusers all burned
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: out on chemicals and once living plants. It's not a
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: hidden fact. The social burnout or the feeling of being
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: very disconnected. Why is it happening? Because we have made
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: it acceptable. Why? Burnout used to be that hidden thing.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: People pushed themselves through their mental storms, not advertising them
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: on TikTok or Instagram. In the past, showing stress made
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: you look weak. The workplace rewarded overworking. Today, they demand
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: it and it's causing burnout. Saying that you're exhausted today
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: isn't a confession. It's a common experience. Burnout has a
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: new name today, such as mental load, and I like
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: this one, compassion fatigue. What's the deal today, dude? What's
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: going on? Well, I got compassion fatigue. Just sounds cool.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Research clearly shows once people have a name to what
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: they're feeling... They're going to start talking about it, and
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: they're going to live it out. Openly, no boundaries. An
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: innocent passerby. They are now the new receiver because it's acceptable. No,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: this generation is not burned out more than any other generation.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: We just can't stop talking about it, and we've allowed
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: it to become our next big excuse to stay home
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: from work. I'm Errol, and that's The Daily Mess.
