| 0:00.0 | Yo, today's QOD is just because you have a thought doesn't mean that it's true. Here we go |
| 0:30.0 | Welcome back to the quote of the day show. I'm your host Sean Crox and a Sean Crox and |
| 0:36.8 | Taccom. We got Marcy Shemoff on this show wrapping up the week and today Marcy is talking |
| 0:42.7 | about something that all of us want, which is more happiness. But what exactly is happiness? |
| 0:49.9 | Do you need something in order to become happy? Like what are the myths? What are the truths |
