One of the most dangerous and tragic problems we are facing today is road rage. A situation where people get so angry at each other over minor offenses, road rage seems to be happening more and more often. And the unintended victim is often children or innocent bystanders. What is it about getting cut off on the road that enrages people? Why do we get so mad about it? It seems like the reactions are way over blown. Should you be pulling out a gun and shooting at someone who is driving too slow in front of you? Or someone else who changed lanes without signaling? A moment of anger is permanently damaging the lives of so many people, the ripple effects are endless. In this episode I am discussing…

Social Media is a popular and powerful tool. There are so many apps out there, from facebook to twitter to tik tok, and more appear everyday. You can share photos, ideas, artwork.

Sometimes just a simple, misunderstood picture is enough to cause a firestorm. Other times its a tweet from years past that comes back to haunt you. Maybe it would have been better not to have hit the send button! In this episode my sister, Jen and I discuss this…

A universal struggle that I think we can all relate too is our weight. It seems that either we are struggle with weight gain, or we are struggling with weight loss. Either way, it's an uphill battle. I definitely lose this battle all the time. In fact, I'm always looking for the bench that I can sit on on the way up the hill! The best way to address this challenge is actually a challenging choice by itself: should we be dieting or should we choose healthy lifestyle overall? Recently I've tried the second approach.

Have you ever heard of Big Foot? A large, furry, half-man, half-beast that lives deep in the forest has been rumored to exist for decades, maybe even hundreds of years. But to this day, there has not been any conclusive evidence of Big Foot's existence. It is one of the most well known conspiracy theories out there. And that's just the tip of the ice berg. Conspiracy theories take many shapes, some are funny stories, some are political in nature. The one thing they all have in common is that no one has been able to definitively prove or disprove them. So the theories keep getting passed on from generation to generation. In this episode I talk about a few of those theories, and whether I believe them or not.…

These days vaccines are front page news. With the COVID-19 pandemic raging, millions of people have lined up to get vaccinated. But even with the high numbers of hospitalizations and deaths, millions more have yet to get vaccinated. In this episode I talk about this topic. When the vaccine was first announced, I was hesitant, as many others were. But as the science backed up the safety of the shots, I felt more comfortable with the idea and got vaccinated when my turn came. Many of you probably feel the same. But I am also sure there are those of you who refuse to get the shot for a variety of reasons. You certainly have the right to make this choice. However, many would argue that the needs of the…
