0:00.0 | Hello, hello, welcome to highbrow. I'm your host today, Mina Lay. Host today and every day. I keep saying |
0:22.7 | hosts today as if someone else is going to take over next week. But no. Unfortunately, |
0:28.1 | you're all stuck with me. So slow news cycle this week, honestly. Like I was trying to get on |
0:34.5 | top of the news, or I guess like I should say the pop culture news |
0:39.8 | because they don't really talk about actual news that really matters to the state of the |

1:46.2 | depends on the person and their own, you know, their own mind, their own brain, their own |
1:51.7 | process. So maybe some of these things will work for you. I think I'm going to try. Well, |
1:58.1 | you know, we'll go through it together and then I'm going to pick some things that I'm going to try. |
2:01.6 | Maybe you'll pick different ones and maybe we can challenge ourselves for the week. |
2:06.6 | Okay, so one suggestion that I got multiple times was moving apps off of the home screen. |
2:12.6 | So I think if you have an iPhone, I'm not sure how this works on an Android, I'm sure there's probably a similar function. |
