Summary

Will you be traveling over the holidays? Obviously, the spike in Covid-19 cases is causing people to reconsider travel and family get-togethers. Listen as this episode begins with the results of a survey about just how many people will or won’t be traveling over Thanksgiving and Christmas. Source: https://bit.ly/32SL0eB When you think about what’s really important to your health, you likely think of medical care, diet and exercise. So what if I told you that friendship and kindness also have a huge impact? They do according to Kelli Harding, MD and author of The Rabbit Effect: Live Longer, Happier, and Healthier with the Groundbreaking Science of Kindness (https://amzn.to/3ptNlXb). Listen as she explains the surprising research that proves being kind and having positive social connections will help you live a long and healthy life. If you think the hamburger came from Hamburg, Germany, you are only technically correct. What we know as a typical hamburger today is a very American creation according to Sef Gonzales who writes the Burger Beast blog (https://burgerbeast.com/) and is author of All About the Burger (https://amzn.to/3pxLqAJ). Join us as Sef retraces the fascinating history of the all-American hamburger. What makes a happy family? It turns out it doesn’t take much. Listen as I explore a few simple things that will make any family happier.
