The Bert Show.

Alright, so do you have your third place?

I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about, but Cassie does.

So this is anyone who is feeling lonely, bored, withdrawn, feel like you lack purpose,

or you just feel like off, you need to find a third place.

It's a term, the coin by a sociologist named Ray Oldenburg, and the third place is basically

a physical location other than your work or your home where everyone can access it and

hang out.

So it's a neutral ground accessible to all.

Conversation is the focus, and it doesn't matter what life, what life you're from, you

can be broke, super rich.

Everyone's welcome, okay?

So at your first place, your home, sure, you can relax, but you still have chores and

duties and stuff to do, and more often than not, like you're alone.

Sometimes you're surrounded by family, but you can't really like, if you have a family,

there's still responsibilities attached to that.

Your second place is your work.

So again, it's social, but you're there to work.

You spend most of your time there, there are responsibilities.

The third place is somewhere you can go to escape all that.

You can connect with others, you feel happy, comfortable, there are friends, it's fun,

or you just have conversations with strangers.
