8
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: know if you've checked out the editorial department calendar recently

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: of our editorial calendar. Sure, yeah, yeah, sure, not not

10
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: the not the the articles slated, but our actual calendar calendar.

11
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, I know you haven't. Well, you

12
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: will be pleasantly surprised to find that if you go

13
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: into the week of Christmas this coming December, we work

14
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: two days. That's not and you know I'm not working

15
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: any Are you taking those days off? Oh yeah, I'm

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: taking off a couple of weeks. Wow, you know, I

17
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: used up almost all my big catient time. I'm very

18
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: grateful for this, But do you realize what that gives us? Uh? Less,

19
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: what it gives me? Well, it sounds like a two

20
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 1: day work week. It sounds also like a five day weekend. Right,

21
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: one man's two day work week is another man's five

22
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: day week. Yeah, it definitely depends on how you look

23
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: at if your workaholic two day work week, if you're

24
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: you know, a slacker five day weekend, right, that sounds great?

25
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: It does. And actually, um our HR department is isn't

26
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: the first to ever come up with this concept. It

27
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 1: is so there's actually a movement of foot chuck called

28
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: the Friends of the Five Day Weekend. There's actually a

29
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: constitutional amendment, a proposal for one, which last time I

30
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: counted had about signatures on it. I wasn't too impressed

31
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: with that number. By the way, it could be better, um,

32
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: basically petitioning Congress to say, all right, you know, we're

33
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: we're going to have a two day work week from

34
00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: now on and the rest is the weekend. Legally, you

35
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: if you work more than this, you have to pay.

36
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: You have to be paid over time. Right. I love

37
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: that this group really went for it there. They didn't

38
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: go with a three day weekend or even a fourth

39
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: They just said, screw it, five days off, two days

40
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: a week will work. Yeah, And we should probably give

41
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: a little background on this group. I gotta tell you,

42
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 1: um it sounds very tongue in cheek. It sounds um,

43
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: almost satirical and a joke, and it almost completely is.

44
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: It's um. The group behind it is the Asheville Convention

45
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: and Visitors Bureau, I Brave Asheville, North North Carolina, and um,

46
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: this is uh an ad campaign of marketing campaign to

47
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: get people to Asheville to you know, create this five

48
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: day weekends so everybody could come to Asheville and spend

49
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: their five day weekends there. Now, Gina, how it was

50
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: the idea just to get press, I think so. I

51
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: think that was part of it, but I think it

52
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: was kind of like a whole campaign, and then the

53
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: press aspect wrote itself, especially once they floated a constitutional amendment,

54
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: So it was kind of a tongue in cheek thing.

55
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: But actually, um, people reacted to it. They responded to it.

56
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 1: You know, Hey, that sounds great kind of thing. Especially

57
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: I imagine when there's like you know, they they had

58
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: they held rallies at festivals and stuff like that, and

59
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 1: I imagine the more beer there was there, the more

60
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 1: of a response there was. You know, yeah, were five

61
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 1: day weekend kind of thing. So, um, well, we found

62
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 1: out about it here at how stuff works, and of course,

63
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: as is our way, um, we took a tongue in

64
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: cheek idea to the nth degree. It's extreme conclusion, and

65
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: wanted to find out. I mean, like, what what the

66
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: deal is? Could this even work? What would happen if

67
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: it did? So it's like you'd be careful making a

68
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: joke around us, because we'll we'll we'll investigate it and

69
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: publish it and if if it's a stupid idea, we'll

70
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: we'll say so. But frankly, these people, I think they

71
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: have a good idea. I think the friends of the

72
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: Five Day Weekend they have a a good idea. And

73
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: they're they're actually pointing something out. What's that they're pointing

74
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: out that Americans work way too hard and have become far,

75
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: far too serious. Well, Donald Trump doesn't agree with you, No,

76
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: he doesn't. But that's the Donald. You know. He said

77
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: he said the idea was ridiculous. He did he actually

78
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: he said it in his blog, right. I got to

79
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: him in the first place. I'm impressed that he knows

80
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: how to blog. So, um, yeah, he he didn't. He

81
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: didn't like that. But there's plenty of people who agree

82
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: with the concept um and actually this this this idea

83
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 1: that Americans are overworked is We've got yards of figures here, Chuck, Chuck,

84
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: how about some figures. I'm the statmn UH in two

85
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: thousand seven survey was performed by the Conference Board, and

86
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: they found that a fewer than fifty percent of Americans

87
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 1: were happy with their jobs, which is, yeah, that's pretty sad.

88
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: Though UH in seven had job satisfaction. That's a sharp decline.

89
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: And you will know note that I think in nineteen

90
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: eight seven, that was the year that the Michael Keaton

91
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: pro America movie Gung Ho came out and really kicked

92
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: the American worker into overdrive. We're not gonna get beaten

93
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: by the Japanese. Let's get to work, you know, be

94
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 1: the lovable Michael Keaton led the charge. Well, I think

95
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: that's it centered exclusively around the movie Gung Ho. Yeah,

96
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: pre batman, Michael Keaton. Uh. And then there was another

97
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 1: study in two thousand four that um, one third of

98
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: all Americans feel overworked, which I thought it might be

99
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 1: a little higher than that. To be honest, I would too,

100
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: But I think we we've also developed an endurance over time,

101
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: Tom and fat lazy pre gung Ho days to like,

102
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: you know, kind of a lean, trim workforce. Yeah, and

103
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: we have now that's slightly evidenced by and I know

104
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 1: something else. You mentioned the article that, uh, a lot

105
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 1: of Americans don't use all their vacation days No. Ten

106
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: of fourteen. Yeah, that's just that was in three thousand

107
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: and six. That added to five hundred and seventy four

108
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: million unused vacation days. Yeah, that is one thing you

109
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: will never catch me with unused vacation That's great. Hats

110
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: off to you, buddy. I just I don't I don't

111
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: get it. Time off is good. I'm not lazy. No,

112
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: you definitely aren't lazy, but you know, you know how

113
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: to live, you know how to take care of yourself,

114
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: and the value of time off, it's a value at

115
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,119
Speaker 1: treasure it. But I think there's a lot of people.

116
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: I think you could even say a majority of American

117
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: workers don't know. They don't know how to do that.

118
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 1: So that's kind of the point of this five day weekend.

119
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: It's like, wake up, man, settle down, let's all just

120
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 1: kind of chill out here there, learn to live like

121
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: chuck that kind of right. Well, I think I don't

122
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: have any stats for this but I bet a lot

123
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: of these types are the men and women that are

124
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: after the dollar and that you know, they figure if

125
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: they're snoozing, they're losing on money. And um, you know

126
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: people use acidine rhymes to describe their motivations, right, and

127
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: we're not really like that. We're meager livers and uh yeah,

128
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: we we know how to be happy and content. Yeah

129
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: without you know, making three hundred thousand dollars a year,

130
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: you're not making three Maybe I should renegotiation. So, um,

131
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: if you'll notice, chuck the end of the five day weekend,

132
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: Like I said, they proposed a constitutional amendment. Now, if Congress,

133
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: for some weird reason took this up, championed it, and

134
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: passed it, it actually wouldn't be the first time that

135
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: they've done this. Did you know that there wasn't any

136
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: such thing as a weekend in the United States until

137
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: nine that's weird. And the weekend was actually created by

138
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: a congressional act. That's so cool. Yeah, I bet no

139
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: one that that's that's the your takeaway today, folks. If

140
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: you want to amaze around the water cooler, that's a

141
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: good fact. The weekend was created by Congress, right, and

142
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: it was called the Fair Labor Standards Act. Yeah, we

143
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: talked about, um, we talked about the the Labor Department

144
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 1: in Free Market Regulation podcast if we'll remember um, and

145
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: you know, they shouldn't exist in this free market. But really,

146
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 1: the Fair Labor and Standards Act is one of these

147
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: shining acts that really protects people. You know. It established

148
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: a forty four hour work week, you know, Monday through Friday,

149
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: about eight hours a day. Um. It also established a

150
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: minimum wage, I got rid of child labor across the board.

151
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: It was a good act and it's still the test

152
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: of time, clearly because the forty hour work week is

153
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: still kind of between forty and still the standard exactly. Okay,

154
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: So so what would happen if we did go to

155
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: a two day a week work week? Um? Well, you

156
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: tell me, you know, you tell me, Well, it depends

157
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: on are you talking about economically speaking? Yeah, I know,

158
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 1: people be a lot happier. Well supposedly, it depends. I mean,

159
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: can you can you really say that? Well, that's just

160
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: my feeling. Okay, let me let me tell you about

161
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 1: an unnatural law that you might be interested in. Right,

162
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: here's the first problem with with the two day work week.

163
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: How are you going to do five days worth of

164
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: work in two days? Is it possible? Well, stay off

165
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: Facebook exactly a good start. There's this guy named I

166
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 1: believe Alan Parkinson. No, that's Alan Parsons project. I think

167
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: you know, uh see Northcote Parkinson. He created Parkinson's law.

168
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: It's like Murphy's law. Um, it's an unnatural law, right,

169
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: kind of a Rye observation um. And Parkinson's law says

170
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: that UM work expands so as to fill the time

171
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: available for its completion. So if you have, you know,

172
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: a one day job to you know, to do, but

173
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: you're given a week to do it, it's gonna take

174
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: you pretty much all week to do that job, no

175
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: matter how hard you try. So I guess if you

176
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: put Parkinson's law up to the you know, five day weekend,

177
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: you could you could probably trim several days off of

178
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 1: your work week if you just went all out for

179
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: those two days. Probably not going to be able to

180
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: finish everything in two days, but it is possible, right,

181
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: I would agree? Okay, So, um, So that's that's number one, UM,

182
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 1: and then number two as far as the five the

183
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: friends of the five day weekend see it basically, Um,

184
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: we're not taking any time for ourselves as it is

185
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: even on the weekends, because there's a lot of times,

186
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: so much time spent working that the weekends are often

187
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: spent doing chores, housework, that kind of thing. And in

188
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,199
Speaker 1: a strict economic sense and as strict economic definition, actually, UM,

189
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: leisure time is activities that give direct enjoyment. So just

190
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: because you have time off doesn't mean you're engaging in

191
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: leisure time, which is the whole point behind the five

192
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: day weekend thing. We need more time to have leisure

193
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: time because, like you said, we're vacuuming, we're running errands,

194
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. That's not leisure time. That's working

195
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: but not being paid for it, you know. UM, So

196
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 1: that's another aspect of the whole thing, and there's also

197
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: a physical aspect to it. Our health could actually improve,

198
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 1: UM if we adopted a five day weekend case. In

199
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 1: point a two thousand study UM from the University of

200
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and the State University of New York Oswego, they

201
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: found that there was a there is a direct correlation

202
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: between middle aged men who are at risk for heart disease,

203
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: suffering heart attacks, and a lack of vacation time. Right

204
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: I did a lot of articles recently on the heart

205
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: and stress, as you know, and it's there. It's not

206
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: supposed you know, it's those are direct links. Yeah, there's

207
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 1: definitely a mind body link, and it appears to be

208
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 1: stresses is the most clear um example of it, right right,

209
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 1: So okay, so we would technically be able to to

210
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: do most of our work in two days that we're

211
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: now taking five days to do. Um, we would uh,

212
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: we would be able to actually engage in actual leisure time.

213
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: Our health would benefit. And even more, there's a model

214
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: already in place for lots of time off and that's

215
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,320
Speaker 1: in Europe. Correct. I went, I went to Malta. Remember

216
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: this summer. There's this guy who's a diplomat over in

217
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: crow Geatia. He's an English diplomat and he had like

218
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: eighties six paid days off per year. You're kidding. No,

219
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: I'm not kidding at all. He hardly knew what to

220
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: do with all the time off that he had, and

221
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: it was fairly fairly common, fairly standard, and I'm like, wow,

222
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: I get two weeks off, you know. So yeah, it

223
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: was kind of um, it was a rough thing to

224
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: come you know, face to face with, right I'm jealous

225
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 1: of your We often talk about our weekend activities and

226
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: I'm all, you really do do it right at your house. Yeah,

227
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: but you you you have very you have a very

228
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: improved house. Well, I'm renovating a house. Some of you

229
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: may know this, some of you may not. So there's

230
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 1: a lot of work to be done on the weekends. Um.

231
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: I do get pleasure out of that, though, So I

232
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: guess technically that still counsels leisure time as long as

233
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: you're driving. Pleasure is a direct pleasure. So, Chuck, let's

234
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: look at it from an economic aspect. Now we know

235
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: what the friends of the five day weekend. You're saying

236
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: that it could be beneficial to us, but you know,

237
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: would it be beneficial of the economy. Well, this is

238
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 1: where you need to school meet, because I know economics

239
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: is your your one true love in life. I love economics.

240
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: Actually it's so weird and nerdy, but I've become fascinated

241
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 1: by it as I've grown older. And there's this guy

242
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: who pertains to what we're talking about, um named John

243
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: Maynard Keynes, and uh he appropriately enough came up with

244
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: Keensian economics, and um, he wrote a paper basically Keensie

245
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: and economics is a form of macro economics. So before

246
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: people would say, okay, um, there's this much much wealth

247
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: in the world, or you know, people sold this many

248
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: goods and um, you know there was this gross profit

249
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: and then you know, minus expenditures, and now you have

250
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,079
Speaker 1: net profit. And there's economics. And keens is like, well, well, whoa,

251
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: we're missing like a lot of aspects here, so like

252
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: our are really um, I guess granular uh view of economics.

253
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 1: Now we're we're keeping track of office supply indexes or indicaes. Um,

254
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 1: that's all KINSI. And he said we need to take

255
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: into account debt and taxes and all this other stuff. Right,

256
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: makes sense. So by the time he writes this paper,

257
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: UM called um economic go Ahead, go ahead, Economic possibilities

258
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: for our grandchildren. Right, And he writes that in ninety

259
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 1: and he'd already established himself as like the the economic

260
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: genius of his age. So he writes this thing. Everybody's listening, right,

261
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: and in it he says, okay, he took a very

262
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: conservative growth rate of um of the economy and wealth,

263
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: which he called capital um equipment. Yeah, thank you, um.

264
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: He said two percent growth per year and seven and

265
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: a half percent growth of the capital equipment, which is,

266
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: I believe all the money available in the world, um,

267
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: and within a hundred years we're going to basically be

268
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: living in this leisure society. The friends of the Five

269
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: Day Weekend came up with, Yeah, I love this theory

270
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: right now. He actually took a his estimates were pretty

271
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: much spot on, and they were actually slightly more concerned.

272
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: We've grown more than that, and I believe like our

273
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: capital equipment has grown much more than seven and a half.

274
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: I think it's like a hundred or two hundred times

275
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: or some some really enormous amount, and yet we're still

276
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: not in this leisure society that Keene's envision within a

277
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: hundred years. Even though we far exceeded his his predictions

278
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: for growth, he was off the mark there for sure.

279
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: He was though, why well, I think you actually didn't

280
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: interview him, correct, I did two interviews, Uh, And I've

281
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: always kind of had this idea that if you want

282
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: to know a question, go to Harvard. It's they They

283
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: have some really really good interview subjects. And actually I

284
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 1: also called a guy from Cornell too, and both of

285
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: them just turned out to be spot on and um, yeah,

286
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: from Cornell Robert Frank, and from Harvard Richard Freeman. And

287
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: the thing is is I call both of them out

288
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: of the blue. Neither one of them had ever heard

289
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: of the five day weekend before, and both of them

290
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: just right off the cuff talked just perfectly, gave me

291
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: all the information I needed. And as if that weren't enough,

292
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: both of them had just submitted chapters for a book

293
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: called Revisiting kens On the very question I called them about,

294
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: and I had no idea that book was even coming out,

295
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: So it was all just kind of going, like, you know,

296
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: we're operating on all cylinders here. I'm kind of I

297
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: can't sit down while I'm interviewing. I'm very excited. It's

298
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: economics and all that. Um So Robert Frank from Cornell.

299
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: His his theory was that we haven't reached this Keynsian

300
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 1: leisure society because Keenes grossly underestimated relative needs. So you've

301
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: got basic needs, right, which are like food and water

302
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: and say clothing, right, and then there's relative needs as well,

303
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: which can also be basic needs, like, for example, clothing

304
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: but instead of you know, tattered rags that keep you warm,

305
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: relative need would be a nice suit. And what Frank

306
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: was saying was that, um, in our modern society, it's

307
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: not enough to just have tattered rags that keep you warm.

308
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,879
Speaker 1: If you want to have a better life, if you

309
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 1: want to provide for your children, you have to throw

310
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: more into relative needs. So your suit has to be

311
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 1: nicer so you can get a better job at an

312
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: interview and then pay for your children. And it's become

313
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,439
Speaker 1: much more important. You can't walk into a place in

314
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 1: an interview and in rags, this basic need that's been

315
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: recovered and expect to advance in life. So he it

316
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: was his opinion that that's why Kenes missed the Mark

317
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: Freeman and now you interviewed and this was from Harvard, correct,

318
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: and uh, he just kind of flatly said that Keenes

319
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: overestimated our desire for leisure and that it's a five

320
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 1: day work week is pretty optimal. Yeah, he said that that, Um,

321
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 1: that labor and management came to a perfect agreement pretty

322
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 1: much to the five day, five day work week, eight

323
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: hour day. What do you think? I gotta tell you, you

324
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: you know, I I had sent before that that's I

325
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: don't like too much time off. It's weird. I feel weird.

326
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: I feel like I have to do something, I have

327
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: to produce something, and um yeah, too much time off

328
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,439
Speaker 1: actually makes me a little edgy. I think a four

329
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 1: day work week would be just about right for me.

330
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 1: I think it'd be good to pepper it here there.

331
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: I don't think it has to be standard every time,

332
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 1: but maybe like twice a month you get a day

333
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: or two off or something like that. And we're not

334
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: talking about telecommuting. It's a different deal. It totally is.

335
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: It's actually a day off, right, yeah, a day off

336
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 1: where you're just not expected to do any work. Um. Okay,

337
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: So so now we we the friends of the five

338
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: day week, they five day weekend. They don't, um they

339
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: they're not the first to come up with it. Keynes did. Um.

340
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: But I asked Freeman and Frank uh, you know what, really,

341
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 1: what would happen to the economy? Epogetically? What would happen? Yeah,

342
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: but you got well, I know the first thing that, um,

343
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 1: you would have to do is to convince your employers

344
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 1: to pay you a full wage for two day his work,

345
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: so paying on production rather than time, right, which makes sense.

346
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: But I don't think either of them assume that employers

347
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: would be willing to do that. So right there, you

348
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,160
Speaker 1: you've got two fifths of the wages we have now,

349
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: which is fine for domestic products. Right, so anything that's

350
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: produced domestically, Um, it's going to fall down and step

351
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: eventually to reflect these two fifths of wages that Americans

352
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: are making. In theory es okay, But also houses would

353
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: get substantially smaller, cars would get substantially smaller, but we'd

354
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: be able to survive. Basically, America would take a gigantic

355
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 1: step backward out of the rat race as one collective whole.

356
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: But then it would all kind of catch up with

357
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: itself and adjust itself. It would, and and everything would

358
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: be fine. I would be much like it is now,

359
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: except two fifths is valuable. But for and produced goods

360
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: in comparison to our lowered wages, the prices of those

361
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: would skyrocket. Right, So so long Sony plasma TV, because

362
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: if you would be so, it be is out of

363
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,360
Speaker 1: out of bounds. Is as you know, a five million

364
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: dollar home is to the average person. Um, so you'd

365
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: have that, but again we'd still be fine. Our our

366
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: relative needs would with lower to to reflect that two

367
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: fifth wage. But I think it was a Freeman, who

368
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 1: predicted sadly that we would still compete with one another, like,

369
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: we'd still want to get the best TV we could

370
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 1: for two fifths of the wages we were getting, and

371
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: it we'd want it to be better than someone else. Yeah,

372
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: which is kind of sad that, you know, even after

373
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,239
Speaker 1: taking a gigantic step backward, we would still compete with

374
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: one another. There's an interesting article. It'll clearly never happen,

375
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,679
Speaker 1: but it's interesting to kind of think about what the

376
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: what if? I think so too. So there's actually quite

377
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: a bit more to this article, right, Uh, you tell

378
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: me you wrote it. Well, let's let's let's just advise

379
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: people to go on to our handy site, look into

380
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: our handy search bar. Just type five day weekend into

381
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: the search bar, how stuff works dot com and stick

382
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: around because it is uh. Listener mail time right, listener

383
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: mail time, listener mail time? Okay, so, Chuck, who is

384
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: our listener? Mail from? Our listener is David and we

385
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: have the last name. We don't know where David's from.

386
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 1: But David did not take kindly to our Delta Force podcast,

387
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: but he was very constructive in his criticism. Didn't just

388
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 1: slam us David says, Hi, Chuck and Josh, I usually

389
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: enjoy your podcast quite a bit, but your recent podcast

390
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 1: on Delta Force was way over the line. While I

391
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 1: appreciate the bone you threw human human rights activists at

392
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: the end before suggesting that they may be killed for

393
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: a policy disagreement, you're over the top adulation for all

394
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: things military was disturbing. You seem to suggest that any

395
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: action they took was justifiable, saying how happy you were

396
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 1: that they were taking care of business, not every policy

397
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 1: decision made by our government, particularly when using shadowy military

398
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: groups for the best. I'm not going to read it

399
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 1: because it's too long, but basically he thinks our opinion

400
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: of special forces might change if some European Arabian country

401
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: special forces two tapped their way through the White House

402
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: to arrest our president. So he was kind of just

403
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,239
Speaker 1: disagreeing with a little bit. And at the end there

404
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: David's referring to the colonel of Delta Force back with

405
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: two tap methods, with two shots to the head of

406
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 1: every terror, which I have to say, can we play

407
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: a clip because we actually warned David and all the

408
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: other listeners that it could evolve into something like this right, Sure,

409
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: let's listen. Okay it is Yeah, there's We should probably

410
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: warn the listeners right now, Chuck and I will most

411
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: likely devolve into some sort of weird boyhood admiration of

412
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 1: all the sick, sick stuff Delta Forces done over the years.

413
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: So just before warn if we start tittering or really

414
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 1: excited or one of us takes our shirt off, don't

415
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 1: be offended. Okay, so David actually shamed us a debt.

416
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: We did feel bad after this one, if I wereall correctly,

417
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 1: because we're not big workouts. No we're not. It's just

418
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 1: this weird power the Delts Force has over us. Yes

419
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: we are odd, Yes we got a little a little juvenile,

420
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: but yeah, David, generally we we would agree with you.

421
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: We believe in in human rights and UM, diplomacy not

422
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 1: military direction is as much. But I think one point

423
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: that we tried to make it. I don't know if

424
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: he made it clear enough, is that if there is

425
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,719
Speaker 1: action to be taken, we would much prefer a small

426
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 1: operation UM, rather than some day and thirty thousand troops.

427
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 1: And yeah, and just quickly before we go, we gotta

428
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: a message from another Dave about the same podcast. Hi,

429
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: I listened to your podcast from the UK and really

430
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: like the one about Delta Force. Would it be possible

431
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: for you to do one on European special forces like

432
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: in Germany and France. Cheers yes and sears to you Dave. Um.

433
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: We were not aware that France had a special forefront.

434
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: So some guys like that, some guys didn't. That's great.

435
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: Oh and don't forget our girlfriend in Sudan who started

436
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: listening to it through her speakers and and it's an

437
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: email saying that she felt uncomfortable doing so, so press pause,

438
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: but she hit was happy with it as well. Great.

439
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: So thank you to all three of you guys for

440
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: sending email. Um and David, thank you very much for

441
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: letting us know how you feel. We appreciate it. If

442
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,199
Speaker 1: you guys want to send us an email, let us

Speaker 1: know what's on your mind, whether you like what we said,

444
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: whether you didn't. Either way, we're cool with it. Uh.
