| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Scoop, where you get the scoop on this week's news. My name is Jenna, and this is Smarter News. |
| 0:17.1 | Hello, hello, everybody. It's great to have you on what is the final day, final Monday. Let's not make it the final day. We can't skip too far ahead. The final Monday of April. I was already thinking about May. Say I was already moving in that direction. And I feel a certain amount of responsibility to talk about May. Because I think in the professional world, and it doesn't even matter |
| 0:38.9 | professional world or otherwise, we just don't say things out loud that everyone else is |
| 0:43.6 | talking about maybe in your own community that could be really helpful if you're a business |
| 0:47.7 | owner, if you're wondering what happened to your friends and family, like what's actually |
| 0:51.5 | happening in the world? |
| 0:53.4 | And what I mean by that is that I now |
| 0:56.2 | know because my son, my eldest is in third grade, started to get like this kind of mid-April, I was getting this anxiety. And, you know, we have a lot of stuff going on in our household. There's a lot of different moving parts. So I thought maybe it was that. And I said, no, no, no, no, it's not that. It is that, but it's the fact that we're |
| 1:11.2 | almost in May. And there needs to be a public service announcement for May. Because if anyone |
| 1:17.4 | has family that's involved in any portion of academic life, I'm saying kindergarten to graduating |
| 1:25.7 | college or beyond higher degree. |
| 1:29.8 | This period of time is especially stressful. |
| 1:33.3 | And I wish someone said to me when I was a younger person, hey, listen, you're on a team |
| 1:38.4 | where you have moms and dads, they got a lot going on. |
| 1:41.7 | May is going to be tough. |
| 1:43.1 | Like, just a heads up that they're suddenly going to be tough. Just a heads up, that they're suddenly going to be |
| 1:46.2 | called to school for no apparent reason to pick up their child midday just because there was a half |
| 1:52.0 | day. Or they're going to be required to be at school for some sort of festival or field trip. |
| 1:56.3 | And although that's joyful, it's going to interrupt the regular workflow. Or there's going to be a graduation, |
| 2:03.5 | people are going to be traveling. I feel like we all need to come together for May. So I'm going to |
| 2:07.6 | start that on Smarter News. As we edge into May, that way we can just give each other a little bit |
| 2:12.7 | of grace. Grace is always good, but particularly in May. Can I get, is anyone on the live chat agreeing with this today? |
