0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:55.720
<v Speaker 1>excited to share our podcast, Time Out, a production of

<v Speaker 1>of all family structures. So take this time out with

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:38.319
<v Speaker 1>your podcasts. Hi. I'm Hillary Clinton, and I'm so excited

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.920
<v Speaker 1>to be back with a third season of You and

0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Me both. When I started this podcast, we were going

0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:47.800
<v Speaker 1>through some tough times, and let's face it, we still are.

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 1>And here's what I know. We cannot get through this alone.

0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:55.600
<v Speaker 1>So please join me for more conversations with people who

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.640
<v Speaker 1>will make you think, make you laugh, and help us

0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>find a path forward. This season, I'll be talking about

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.680
<v Speaker 1>the state of our democracy with experts and with people

0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:10.840
<v Speaker 1>organizing on the ground. Will draw inspiration from some amazing

0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:15.040
<v Speaker 1>people like Olympic star Alison Felix and Grammy Award winner

0:02:15.120 --> 0:02:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Brandy Carlisle. And we'll get into the hard stuff with

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:23.720
<v Speaker 1>writer Cheryl strad and my dear friend and colleague Juma Aberdeen,

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:26.640
<v Speaker 1>So join us. Listen to you and me both on

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:30.000
<v Speaker 1>the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you

0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:47.919
<v Speaker 1>get your podcasts. Good morning, this is Laura, Welcome to

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the New Corner Office. Today's tip is to become a

0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:55.840
<v Speaker 1>webinar enthusiast. The near infinite number of virtual learning options

0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:59.959
<v Speaker 1>out there means you can effectively homeschool yourself, learn something

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:02.280
<v Speaker 1>new during a break once or twice a week, and

0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:06.080
<v Speaker 1>you will find life more interesting even if you're still quarantined.

0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.640
<v Speaker 1>In the old days, when people still went to things,

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:12.920
<v Speaker 1>a number of community centers, libraries, or houses of worship

0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>would offer evening programming. Now, most likely you'd be in

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:20.040
<v Speaker 1>a certain stage of life, perhaps retired to go to

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>a discussion of Swedish art or Egyptian literature on a

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday night. But I've always had great respect for people

0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:29.280
<v Speaker 1>who went to such events instead of sitting on the

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:33.640
<v Speaker 1>couch watching Netflix. Lectures and presentations are a great way

0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>to make a night a little different and to expose

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:40.640
<v Speaker 1>yourself to new things. These days, all that stuff is

0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:44.040
<v Speaker 1>on the Internet. You could live thousands of years and

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:48.080
<v Speaker 1>never attend all the free webinars out there. Working from home,

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>does not magically give you more time. However, it does

0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:56.000
<v Speaker 1>help you escape from some group norms. In many workplaces,

0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:59.480
<v Speaker 1>anyone spotted watching a thirty minute video on Swedish art

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:04.360
<v Speaker 1>might be seen as well not serious. In others, the

0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:07.240
<v Speaker 1>expectation is that you use all breaks to talk with

0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:11.120
<v Speaker 1>your colleagues. If people can't see you, then you have

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:14.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot more freedom, and I think that's a good thing.

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 1>So take advantage of this freedom to learn new stuff

0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>that frankly will make you a more interesting person to

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:24.360
<v Speaker 1>work with. Anyway, to become a webinar enthusiast, you need

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:27.960
<v Speaker 1>to become aware of online learning offerings. Sure there are

0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:31.080
<v Speaker 1>commercial companies like the Great Courses, but there's a lot

0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:34.920
<v Speaker 1>of informal stuff too to learn about them. Join communities

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:38.640
<v Speaker 1>devoted to things you find interesting, and follow institutions that

0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 1>offer lots of virtual programming, often the same libraries, universities

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 1>and community centers that did so in the past. You

0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:49.320
<v Speaker 1>can ask for recommendations. A lot of people started following

0:04:49.360 --> 0:04:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Moe Willem's doodles early in Quarantine because others recommended him.

0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Your neighbors, friends and family members have ideas, ask lists

0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 1>some possibilities, then start assigning yourself one to two per week.

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.520
<v Speaker 1>The goal is to do at least one, so giving

0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:10.039
<v Speaker 1>yourself two options means that when the live discussion of

0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Swedish art happens to coincide with the exact moment your

0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:17.560
<v Speaker 1>biggest client finally calls you back, well, oh well, you

0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:20.600
<v Speaker 1>still got the Egyptian literature one coming up on Thursday.

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:24.400
<v Speaker 1>You can also set yourself a time limit. If you're

0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.920
<v Speaker 1>still not enthusiastic about any given webinar by say fifteen

0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:31.680
<v Speaker 1>minutes in, feel free to go do something else. But

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:33.880
<v Speaker 1>when we're all stuck at home much of the time,

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:38.200
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to find new and wonderful things. Becoming those

0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:41.320
<v Speaker 1>people who went to every speech at the library is

0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 1>not a bad idea. In the meantime, this is Laura,

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:49.280
