Okay, we're safe. Thank you, Jesus, or, you know, thank you, China. Their biggest rocket landed in the Indian Ocean with, you know, most of it being destroyed upon reentry, which is what we had talked about.

0:16.0

But they have, you know, admonished China saying bad, bad. You were reckless. What are you doing? Don't do that anymore. Well, they're only have, I think, I don't know, a dozen more launches to go as they're building their new space station. Let's not forget this isn't the first time some of their stuff has come crashing down.

0:45.0

I know the one space station came through and landed in the in the ocean. The other one they crashed, or they destroyed, but it was they had control of it. You know, sure they had control of it. Uh-huh. So they are listening. They are listening. They are going to become, you know, more and more responsible and not so reckless with their space program.

1:14.0

Eyes to the sky, my friend. Eyes to the sky. But we're safe for now. Welcome to chewing the fat.

1:28.0

City dwellers becoming more psychotic because of their lack of connection to nature, or does the lack of nature make urbanites more prone to becoming psychopaths? Well, we don't know. We just know that city slickers are more likely to be psychotic.

1:50.0

That's a new study from the Journal of Environmental Psychology and Man. Do I look forward to receiving my Journal of Environmental Psychology every time it's released?

2:05.0

It found the correlation between people who exhibit darker personality traits and a preference for urban over sub-urban and rural areas. Using the crowdsourcing website, a pronific. Researchers at the University of Derby love the University of Derby.

2:25.0

Surveyed 304 UK-based adults on their preferred geological setting. The data showed a correlation between socially averse personality traits, like sadism and narcissism and being partial to inner city living.

2:46.0

The second study of another 235 UK-based adults concluded similar results. Possibly reflective of big city residents failing to get the quality of life improvements that nature brings to less urban dwellers.

3:06.0

Our relationship with nature is well-documented and timeless experience that is becoming increasingly strained due to fast-paced living, hectic lifestyles and an emphasis on convenience. However, what we do know about individuals with high degrees of connection with nature, this is what Dean Fido, the study's author, said,

3:31.0

individuals are often healthier, have better perceptions of themselves and their bodies show greater levels of empathy towards others and, importantly, report fewer instances of stress, anxiety and depression. But, as I started out with saying, researchers are still unsure whether city dwellers become more psychotic because they're lack of connection to nature or does lack of nature make urbanites more prone.

4:00.0

To becoming psychopaths, all we do know for sure though, reading between the lines here and doing the fact is that those of you, yeah you, those of you living in the city as psychopaths, just saying.

4:18.0

Now, you know, I read a story this weekend about a lady who was presumed missing in Utah. She's a 47 year old woman and she was pronounced missing for five months. She'd gone to Diamond Fork, portion of Utah's Spanish Fork Canyon, beautiful this time of year, and they sent a drone into the area in hopes of finding the camper or any side of life.

4:46.0

Yeah, the drone crashed. But they had a good idea where the drone crashed so they, you know, I tend to get the drone and, oh my gosh, they found what looked like an abandoned tent in the middle of nowhere. And as it turns out, I wasn't abandoned at all. The missing woman emerged from the tent. Hey, what are you doing here? She was not missing. She just, you know, wanted to be alone for a while.

5:15.0

According to this, she'd lost weight and was weak. Now she was eating grass and moss and using water from a nearby river. How dare her live in the wild like that? How dare her? So they, you know, took her and she told them, hey, I just wanted some solitude and isolation. Oh, okay, well, you know what? We're still going to take you to the hospital for a mental health evaluation.

5:43.0

And the family hasn't even been contacted yet. Now, of course, however, co-workers has suggested in the past that she may struggle from mental health related issues. So she's still alive and she wanted to be left alone. She said, I wanted some solitude and isolation. But we still took her in because we know best.

6:09.0

It's just incredible. I mean, we have stories about how they're cleaning up 35 tons of garbage from a homeless camp in Los Angeles, including 700 pounds of feces and urine. Oh, okay. And if you live in the city, you're a psychopath. But heaven forbid, heaven forbid.

6:34.0

You want to have a little solitude and isolation. Now I'm guessing you're probably not supposed to set up shop in the middle of the diamond fork canyon. But still, I don't understand. So we're just going to take you in. All right, fine. Whatever.

6:55.0

Doesn't seem quite right to me, but they they did. Now I really was surprised at some of the numbers inside of the story. So they claim that there are currently about 1600 people missing in the wild somewhere in the United States.

7:16.0

More than 600,000 people in the US go missing each year. And then that's just people missing. And in the story, it says in the wilderness or not. Well, yeah, okay.

7:30.0

No, thank you. But between 89% and 92% are found either dead or alive. So 1600 people go missing in the wild or somewhere.

7:46.0

In the United States. And over 90% of them are found either dead or alive. That's an incredible amount. So what you still have, we still have 10% 8% at the lowest that are just missing. They're just gone. They just disappear.
