Summary

Are you keeping a secret? Everyone does - usually more than one. The problem with keeping secrets is that it is a burden that impacts your life in ways you may not realize. This episode begins with an explanation. ⁠⁠http://now.tufts.edu/articles/how-burdensome-are-secrets⁠⁠ The world of work has changed quite a bit in the last few years. Today, more people are not just looking for a paycheck or promotion, they are looking for meaning in what they do. Another big change is that many workers today have more than one job. People relate to their work and their employer differently than they used to. Bruce Feiler has been watching and researching these changing trends and joins me to discuss what these changes mean and what opportunities they create for all of us. Bruce is the author of six consecutive New York Times bestsellers including ⁠⁠The Search: Finding Meaningful Work in a Post-Career World (https://amzn.to/3OKgwUI)⁠⁠ It seems like just about everyone today has allergies. But it wasn’t always this way. How do we get allergies? Why do some people get them while others do not? While allergies and little more than a nuisance for some of us, they are a serious health problem for others. Here to discuss what everyone needs to know about allergies is Theresa MacPhail. She is a medical anthropologist, and associate professor of science and technology. She is also author of the book ⁠⁠Allergic: Our Irritated Bodies in a Changing World (https://amzn.to/43d9uwb)⁠⁠ You know that exercise is good for your health. But did you know it is also good for your sex life? Listen as I reveal how people who exercise regularly have a lot more fun in the bedroom and feel better about their own sex appeal. ⁠⁠https://www.runnersworld.com/uk/health/a776324/can-exercise-lead-to-a-better-sex-life/⁠⁠ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!
