Hi I'm Daniel Tosh, host of a new podcast called Tosh Show.

I'll be interviewing people that I find interesting, so not celebrities, and certainly not

comedians. We'll be covering topics like religion, travel, sports, gambling, but mostly it will be about being a working

mother.

If you're looking for a podcast that will educate and inspire or one that will really make

you think, this isn't the one for you.

Listen to Toss Show on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

Good morning. This is Laura. Welcome to the Before Breakfast Podcast. Today's

tip is about how to stop being late. Let me start by saying that I find punctuality to be a fascinating concept.

It's more about expectations than about time itself.

There are definitely cultural elements to it.

If you're lucky enough to be invited to a party in Brazil, for instance,

showing up at the stated time is actually rude to your hosts.

They won't be expecting anyone until about 60 minutes after the start.

When I was visiting Japan on the other hand, my tour bus actually left someone who wasn't on the bus at the time our guide said we were going to leave.

Punctuality is incredibly important there,

which is why the trains always run on time. Different offices have different attitudes

toward punctuality. It's one of the first things people learn when starting a new job.

In some places, all meetings start 10 minutes late because it's understood that you're coming from other meetings.

In other places, all meetings end 10 minutes early,

so the next meetings can start on time. In other, all meetings end 10 minutes early,

so the next meetings can start on time.
