0:00.0 | Hello my dear astro lights. Welcome to the astro muscle. |
0:07.0 | Hey everybody, what's going on? Welcome to the astro hustle. I'm Cori Alan. I hope you're having a great day today and I really mean that if you're not having a great day |
0:16.3 | If you're having a bad day just remember that a good day and a bad day both have to exist and order for either for them to exist, right? |
0:26.4 | So if you're having a bad day, that means that eventually the counterpoint of that will |
0:30.0 | be that you'll be having a good day or maybe multiple good days in a row. But that also means that you |
0:35.7 | have multiple bad days in a row. So does that nullify the idea of good and bad days altogether? |
0:41.5 | And does it just suggest that our good and bad days altogether. |
0:42.6 | And does it just suggest that our experience of the current moment |

1:26.9 | designs in some ways but it's refreshed and revised and a bit more low-key. So I don't know if you |
1:32.3 | notice but on the actual podcast artwork itself and on |
1:37.1 | this t-shirt design. The third eye on my logo has disappeared and the lightning bolts emanating from it have also |
1:47.1 | disappeared not because I've got any less third i.e but just because I feel like that that that symbolism is a bit played out |
1:56.8 | just in general I think culturally it's around it's all over place, you know what I mean? |
2:03.4 | It's getting a little too common in my taste, |
2:05.4 | so off of that, and it's just in my artistic nature, |
2:11.1 | I cannot ever stop tweaking things so I revise that logo it's just |
