Summary

It is hard to get through life without writing things down on a yellow legal pad. You probably have some of those writing pads in your home right now. So, why are they yellow? And what makes them “legal”? Listen as I start this episode with the story. https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/30325/why-are-legal-pads-yellow You probably take your five senses for granted. That’s about to change when you hear my discussion with Gretchen Rubin. Gretchen had an experience in a doctor’s office that caused her to reassess her understanding and appreciation of her 5 senses. That, in turn, led her on a journey that we can all learn from and participate in. And it just might make you a happier person in the process. Gretchen Rubin is the host of the hit podcast Happier with Gretchen Rubin https://gretchenrubin.com/podcasts/, she has written several books on happiness and her latest book is titled Life in Five Senses (https://amzn.to/41q1BCg). There’s a pretty good chance you’ve had your heart broken by someone at some point in your life If so, you know how horrible it can feel. Some people are devastated and can barely function while others are able to deal with it and move on. What is a broken heart exactly? Why is the pain so intense? Can you actually die from a broken heart? And what is the best way to get over it? Joining me to discuss that is Florence Williams. She is a contributing editor at Outside magazine, and author of the book Heartbreak: A Personal and Scientific Journey (https://amzn.to/3KWFDRX). A lot of us start our day with a hot cup of coffee. Maybe too hot. Listen as I reveal why one recognized coffee expert reveals what is the best temperature for a cup of coffee and why. https://www.coffeedetective.com/what-is-the-correct-temperature-for-serving-coffee.html PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
