1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Press show, this is what's trending So in Canada, Big

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: News this morning. In Canada, they decided a cursive needs

3
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: to be in school. Cursive does relegated in two thousand

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: and six to an optional piece of learning in elementary

5
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: schools in Ontario, Canada. Now they're saying it's a mandatory

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: part of the curriculum. The Education Minister says the research

7
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: has been very clear that cursive writing is a critical

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: life skill in helping young people to express better, to

9
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: think more critically, and ultimately to express more authentically. Really,

10
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 1: writing in cursive versus writing in I mean it's faster

11
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: to write in cursive that is in print. I couldn't

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: even try to write in cursive.

13
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: Really, what like I got I got in trouble in

14
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 2: high school because I'd never used cursive. Like I just

15
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: used you know, like capital letter, smalls, I whatever, print,

16
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 2: regular print.

17
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: It's just the letters like connected basically, yeah, practice, It

18
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: was a real adult when I started writing, and like

19
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: I felt like that made me grown. And when I

20
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 1: learned how to write in cursive, well, you know, I

21
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 1: felt like a real adult when I just said forget

22
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: it one day and I didn't write and cursive, and

23
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: I just wrote in print and nobody said anything, right.

24
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: I was like, yep, I'm fucking the system. I don't care.

25
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 1: I don't want to do this anymore because your print

26
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: is really nice, friend, beauful, but it takes forever. It

27
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: takes forever to write, so like I mean cursive. I

28
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: would agree you can write a lot faster, but my

29
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: print might look nice, but it's I don't know, it

30
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: takes twice as long, but I mean once and for

31
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: all eight five five nine, one o three five. This

32
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: is We're having a school board meeting right now. This

33
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: is a front show school board meeting. Honor in the court,

34
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: hit the gavel. Yes, they got to have a gabble there.

35
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: What do they really need to be teaching in school?

36
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: Oh my god, what do they really need to be tea?

37
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: I mean cursive? Fine, teach people cursive, that's fine. I mean,

38
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: I just I don't you can think more critically if

39
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: you write and cursified. I didn't know that, but I mean,

40
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: how about like, and to be serious for one second,

41
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: some form of financial literacy. Money man Number one should

42
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: be taxes, Like, here's how much money you have, and

43
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: here's how much you can spend always the same number

44
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: and tipping? Should about the should teach about tipping? Okay,

45
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: should we talk about tipping again because the conversation always

46
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 1: goes well today, Yeah, no, for real though, they should

47
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: teach I think in a way like negotiating or advocating

48
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: for yourself. I don't know if that's a class or there.

49
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: That's just something there, but I think that's a huge

50
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,399
Speaker 1: one as an adult that a lot of people don't

51
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: know how to do. Unfortunately. I think my hot take yep,

52
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: write down in cursive on our list. Write it down

53
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: you want be able to read it if I do.

54
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: I mean, and I know some schools have this, but

55
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,079
Speaker 1: like I know how silly this sounds, but some form

56
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: of taking care of yourself, like here's basic how to

57
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: do laundry, here's basic home mac. I guess it exists

58
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: in some form. We didn't have it. I didn't have

59
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: it either, But I mean I went to college. As

60
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 1: hard as my mom try it, I didn't know how

61
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: to do much of anything for myself. I mean, honest,

62
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: I had to sort of just figure it out by

63
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: ruining a lot of clothes, for example. I still sort

64
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: of figure it out by ruining it. Everything gets washed on. No.

65
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: Now I tank stuff up because every time I think

66
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: of you guys. Ye, now, every time I go to

67
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: put it all the drink, these guys at me. Hey Lindsey, Hi,

68
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 1: good morning, Hi Lindy. You think that they should be

69
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: teaching cursef Why?

70
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 3: Absolutely? Because these kids do not know how to have

71
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 3: a signature for their name. They go to apply for

72
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 3: a job, they don't have the signature. They just print

73
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 3: their name.

74
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: That's interesting, that's a's a good point.

75
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really true.

76
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: There's there are people on like TikTok on the internet

77
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: that will do a signature for you. They'll invent a

78
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: signature for you, and then they'll give you step by

79
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: step tip like big suggestions on how to replicate it yourself,

80
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: because people don't You're right, I guess they don't have one.

81
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 3: You're right, Well, that's ridiculous.

82
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't think about that.

83
00:03:59,560 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 3: Thank you.

84
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: Do you have a good day? Yeah, Like, if you

85
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: don't like your signature, you can go and they'll don't

86
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: invent one for you and then like show you how

87
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: to do it so you can have like a fancy

88
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: looking signature.

89
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: I was one of those kids that just kept doing

90
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 2: new signatures, you know what I'm saying, Like I would

91
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 2: practice my signature different styles.

92
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 1: I was signing autograph the NBA. Yeah, on the back

93
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: of my right back of all my assignments, not books,

94
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: it would be you know, Christopher Frederick number fifty five,

95
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: Like someday I was going to sign that for somebody.

96
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, my initials everything, even even the initials.

110
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 1: need to be teaching in school? They're saying, guy, I

111
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: guess all the Canadian kids now are gonna learn cursive,

112
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: But well, what do we need to know for real,

113
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 1: for real life skills?

114
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 3: How to pay your bill, how to do things for

115
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 3: yourself so that they're not just expecting mom and dad

116
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 3: to take over everything in their life.

117
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: I like it, Yeah, right, bill paying. I agree with taxes, yes,

118
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 1: I mean I don't think people understand the concept. I don't.

119
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: I don't know that I could do a very good

120
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: job following my taxes. I mean, I'm sure I could

121
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: do odd job at it, but I'm not sure if

122
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: it would be you know, with all the deductions I'm

123
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: supposed to have, and god knows what else I don't.

124
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. I got it. I got a guy.

125
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 3: A lot of people because I do taxes, A lot

126
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 3: of people will come in and they have no clue,

127
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 3: or they'll sit there and say, oh, well, I'm sure

128
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,799
Speaker 3: I should get more money because my friend got more money. Everybody.

129
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: Oh, it's like that scene Linda from a Ship's Creek

130
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: where it's a write off. Yeah, like, what's a rite off?

131
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,559
Speaker 1: It's like this lamp, it's a write off. Who pays

132
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,239
Speaker 1: for the write off? I don't know somebody, Thank you, Linda,

133
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: have a good day.

134
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 3: Thank you.

135
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 1: I love you too. I mean, I realize we don't

136
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: use checks and check books anymore unless you show a

137
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: bit Shelley, But like, uh, teaching kids how to balance

138
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: like an imaginary check book, I mean, it's the same

139
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 1: theory with you know, anything else. It's the same idea

140
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: even if you're not physically writing checks.

141
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 2: Or to understand, like when you swipe your credit card

142
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 2: like whatever, Like, yes, it's going to show that it's deducting.

143
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,359
Speaker 1: It a might not showing the balance yet, but it's gone. Money.

144
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: Teaches are all text. Teach real life scenarios, role play situations,

145
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: and critical thinking, out of the box solutions. Sure. Yeah,

146
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: teach cursive so the kids can sign their name. Yeah,

147
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: I guess so. Someone was saying here. None of my

148
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: daughters even know how to write in cursive. Along with

149
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: the new math, I can't even do this. Yeah, that

150
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: common throws everybody off. Teaching cursive in school isn't just

151
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: about writing faster. It's about being able to read documents

152
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: written in cursive as well. When you reading the Constitution document,

153
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: yes over here, coping mechanisms, Yes, they should be teaching

154
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: coping mechanisms, Yes, yes, and yes that would have helped

155
