But also I 186 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 4: was thinking, isn't it also doesn't it also exacerbate the 187 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 4: problem in that I've heard that they no longer even 188 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 4: teach cursive writing in school, so that would make writing 189 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 4: block letter sentences, five of them at that be even 190 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 4: more such a task. 191 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 3: Just saying. 192 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: The horror that was the scariest one.

I don't know if cursive is the key. 194 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 2: It definitely doesn't hurt, but overall, literacy is down down 195 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 2: in the country and abysmal in La County and LAUSD 196 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: and outside of that. But you know, unfortunately, technology is 197 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 2: the part of the culprits and the fear of not 198 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 2: having your phone nomophobia is significant. People have that fear 199 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: and that anxiety, and they're locked to their devices and 200 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,959 Speaker 2: not to their abilities to read. 201 00:11:58,440 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 3: Apparently they're reading. 202 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 2: Their phones, you go, but you're reading something, there's content there. 203 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 2: Why can't that translate? 204 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 3: I don't know. 205 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, but what I do know is thank 206 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 2: you for your talk back.

He thought he 465 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 2: was caught, so he decided to stash the cocaine, hiding it, 466 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 2: weighing it down with weights in the bay there, tried 467 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 2: to hide it in a cave, and of course these 468 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 2: bundles washed up and people took them.

Thoughts become our emotions. Everything 504 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 5: begins with the thoughts. They become our emotions. Our emotions 505 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 5: turn into our behaviors. Our behaviors impact the world, and 506 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 5: then the environment throws it right back out us. So, 507 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 5: for instance, if you watched a lot of stuff that 508 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 5: brought up a lot of fear for you, So your 509 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 5: thoughts are, oh my goodness, bad things can happen. Your 510 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 5: emotions are I'm scared of this, I'm scared of that, 511 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 5: I'm scared of that. Then you start to mistrust your neighbors, 512 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 5: maybe even your coworkers. Then you start you lil and 513 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,959 Speaker 5: then you worry like they might have ulterior motives, and 514 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 5: it can get into paranoia. And guess what, when you 515 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 5: start mistrusting people, they start acting untrustworthy. 516 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,959 Speaker 3: Oh and then you're a proved right. So it's a 517 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 3: weird cycle. 518 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 5: Now let me take the opposite. If you just used 519 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 5: your remote control and found stories not just of survival 520 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 5: and tragedy, but amazing perseverance, stories of people who recovered 521 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 5: from illness, stories of people who you know have done 522 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 5: great good works. 523 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 3: In the world. I don't know if you saw. Senator 524 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 3: to Corey. 525 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 5: Booker had a thing on his Instagram today about the 526 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 5: female truck driver that went over the edge of the bridge. 527 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 3: Did you see that video? I did. 528 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 5: Oh my God, and the firefighter at she made his 529 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 5: way down and kept her. 530 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 3: She was dang o water and almost died. 531 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 5: I love those stories like they have some trauma in them, 532 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 5: but they're like, wow, yeah, they're really powerful. So if 533 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 5: you if you fed, you know, feeding your body and 534 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 5: feeding your brain are the same thing. Okay, we all 535 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 5: have a natural survival mechanism that is based in fear. 536 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 5: But I have been noticing lately too many Americans are 537 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 5: living in the fear centers of their brains. 538 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 3: We are we are, Yeah, I can definitely agree with that, and. 539 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 5: I think media where all I fault too. We know 540 00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 5: how to get eyeballs in ear lobes is we we 541 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 5: know to scare people a little bit, and so politicians 542 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 5: for sure. And so as a result, we need to 543 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 5: as individuals work hard to let light and love come 544 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 5: into our thoughts on a regular basis. 545 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 2: Oh, how beautifully said, Yeah, what else are you talking 546 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 2: about in our show? 547 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 3: Well? 548 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 5: Interesting enough with the New News on Prince Andrew and 549 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 5: Virginia Guffrey. 550 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 3: Guffrey, thank you. No book coming out. I thought i'd 551 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 3: do a deep dive. 552 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 5: Into the age of consent and that has been going 553 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 5: up and all the reasons why it's been going up. 554 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 5: Clearly not fast enough for Prince Andrew. I want to 555 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 5: talk about that. I also want to talk about something 556 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 5: that's happened to I think all of us. The research 557 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 5: I found said only forty five percent of us, but 558 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 5: I think the other fifty five lied. When you get 559 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 5: ghosted by a friend, like someone you just know and liked, 560 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 5: and all of a sudden they just cut you out 561 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 5: of their life and you don't know why. It gets 562 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 5: happened to me three times in my life, and the 563 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 5: pain I felt was off. And now I'm learning it's 564 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 5: the same as a physical pain on your brain. 565 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 3: I believe it. 566 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 5: So I want to talk about ghosted by a friend 567 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 5: and they're also I'm not gonna give them away yet. 568 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 5: I'm all about honesty, openness. Don't ever tell a lie, 569 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 5: especially in your romantic relationships. 570 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 3: They are two lies. 571 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 5: I'm going to give you full hall pass to have 572 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 5: with your partner.
