Summary

Hey Regular Guys and Gals, we did it again. We made it through another week! How losing the opening music sent Kev into an unexpected Friday identity crisis. How Patriots Day opened up a bigger conversation about history, pride, and what binds a culture together. How Bicentennial parade traumas of yesteryear still have emotional residue. How resilience and resourcefulness may be the greatest gifts we can pass on. How “just try” may be more important than perfection. How kids may need less managing and more chances to learn how to move and groove. How common sense, independent thought, and coloring outside the lines may be the missing curriculum. How simplifying life may not be about retreating, but preparing. How Victim Con keeps returning because every joke has a dangerous grain of truth. How escaping the ring may sometimes be the best strategy. And how maybe, just maybe, the future belongs to the people who can adapt, laugh, help each other… and keep going. Talk Shawtly!

And I've recently realized this might actually make more sense that I initially believed. It's hard to recharge in your environment. And I know that for sure because Kev always says that I have ants in my pants because I can never relax at home. But I do when I go somewhere new. and by this time, you know that when I travel,
0:21.5	I love to stay in homes on Airbnb. And here's why. Whether I'm healing in the Dominican Republic

0:32.5	whole experience feel so relaxed because everything's right there. And here's something else to

0:47.5	local co-host to manage reservations, guest communication, and provide on-site support. So hosting
0:52.8	stays stress-free and manageable. So if you've
0:56.0	ever thought about hosting but need a little help, find a co-host at Airbnb.com slash host.
1:01.1	Friends, I know someone who did something really cool recently. So they just listed their space on
1:05.4	Airbnb and use that money to help fund their own escape on Airbnb, like a swap. I've talked about it, but now that I
1:11.7	know someone who did it personally, it's so cool that it works. And now with Airbnb's co-host network,
1:16.6	hosting is easier than ever. You can hire a vetted local co-host to handle all the behind-the-scenes
1:21.1	details so hosting stays completely stress-free while you enjoy your time off. So if you're thinking,
