We all have heard fairytales when we were kids. But have you had the chance to really listen to them as an adult? There are so many things that just seem to defy logic! I know, it's not real, but some things just really don't make any sense! In this episode I debunk fairytales that just don't pass the smell test! You can probably relate, and might think of a few points yourself! If you missed past episodes, listen to them here: https://www.statementsofopinion.com/episodes

Every year in NYC, thousands of middle school and junior high school studends prepare to apply to their favorite high schools. Based on their academic performance, they were usually pretty confident in where that would be. Well, not anymore. In an ill-fated attempt to make high school admissions more diverse, students were divided up into a lottery system that has confused and upset many. Students who have spent years getting the highest grades and extra-curricular achievements so they could attend the best schools in the city, are now at the mercy of a random algorithm. I hope you'll listen in and let me know your thoughts on this jacked up hot mess! If you missed my other episodes, you can find them here: https://www.statementsofopinion.com/episodes

Okay, I know it seems like I have a few bones to pick with food delivery drivers, but really I think my rant this time is justified! There are many drivers who are going on Tik Tok to complain about the customers who don't want to come downstairs from apartments to get their food. They refuse to bring it to their doors, and will just eat it or throw it out when the time limit expires. Now, I don't know if that's just pure laziness, but isn't it in the job description to deliver the food? In this episode I get into it, so if you can relate, or even if you disagree and think drivers have it rough, then listen in on this episode and leave a comment! Missed…

Has anyone ever turned to you and said "shhhhh?" How did you feel about it? Some people find that shushing others or being shushed is rude and disrespectful. I am not one of those people, but I thought it would be an interesting topic to explore. Listen in to the reasons why I don't have a problem with it, then let me know if you agree. Is it rude, or is it communication? Listen to past episodes here: https://www.statementsofopinion.com/episodes

Recently I read a little article on Reddit about how a woman asked her nanny to miss a family wedding, then basically issued an ultimatum when the nanny said no. I couldn't believe what I was reading! There's just so much to unpack here, but seriously, she should miss the wedding to babysit? And she had been given the time off too! So in this episode I discuss just how crazy I think that is!! Listen in and let me know who you think is right! Listen to all my episodes here: https://www.statementsofopinion.com/episodes

Have you ever been listening to the radio, and a song starts playing that automatically brings back a rush of memories? Every now and then I have that experience.

If you can relate, and have a few songs of your own to add to the list, then listen in and enjoy this episode! Then drop a comment to let me know which ones take you there!

On Youtube there are many trends and videos that are interesting, exciting and adventurous. But mukbangs don't fall in any of those categories for me! I came across the trend recently, and let me say I can definitely take a hard pass on mukbangs! It's just not an appealing way for me to spend my onscreen time on. But clearly I must be in the minority because these videos are booming! Listen in to this episode as I talk about mukbangs and why I can do without them!

Warning: I will be talking about highly sensitive crimes involving minors, although I do not go into specifics. There is a recent documentary about Jimmy Savile, a British entertainer and celebrity, who after his death was found to have committed pretty horrible crimes. But there had been rumors for years about his behavior. Why wasn't he stopped sooner? In this episode I discuss how it seems that being a celebrity often means you can get away with crime. Or at the very least, light punishment. It is a really disturbing trend and something we need to fix.  Have you missed any other episodes?
