Summary

Ever catch a glimpse of your computer screen in just the right light and see just how dusty and filthy it has become? So how do you clean it? Before you reach for window cleaner and a paper towel, listen to the beginning of this episode for the right way to clean off a monitor without causing damage. https://www.rd.com/article/how-to-clean-a-computer-screen/ You already know that physical exercise is good for your health. Today you will hear how simply moving your body can do wonders for your mind. It is not about getting your heart pumping or lifting weights, it’s about moving your body in the way it was designed to according to Caroline Williams, a science journalist who is a regular contributor to New Scientist and author of the book Move: How the New Science of Body Movement Can Set Your Mind Free (https://amzn.to/3Jsjlot). It is pretty common for people to eat lunch at their desk while they continue to work. With more people working from home, it is likely more common than ever. But is it a good idea? Listen as I explain some of the reasons you may want to step away from your work and enjoy your lunch in another room. https://www.businessinsider.com.au/why-you-shouldnt-eat-lunch-at-your-desk-2015-12 You have a right to privacy. Or do you? You often hear people talk today about how “privacy is dead.” Is there so much information out in cyberspace about all of us that there is no more privacy and never will be? Not according to Neil Richards. Neil is one the leading experts in privacy law. He is Professor of Law at Washington University School of Law, where he co-directs the Cordell Institute for Policy in Medicine & Law and author of the book, Why Privacy Matters (https://amzn.to/32xsxaG). Listen as he discusses how privacy works, how the laws must change and how privacy is not dead - it just needs a little fixing. PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
