The History of Fun & The Price You Pay for Lack of Sleep

The pandemic certainly made us more aware of the importance of washing our hands. However, it isn’t just how often you wash, it is also the technique that matters. Listen as I explain. http://www.hardydiagnostics.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Hand-Washing.pdf For as long as there have been people, there has been a need for fun. People like to have fun whether it is amusement parks, board games, sports, festivals, video games or whatever people do for fun. The backstories of how a lot of these fun things came to be is really quite interesting. Joining me to discuss the history of all things fun is Russ Frushtick who has written about games and technology for over a decade. Russ is co-founder of Vox Media’s gaming site called Polygon (www.polygon.com ) and he is author of The Book of Fun: An illustrated History of Having a Good Time (https://amzn.to/3H2nBdn). If you work in a job you don’t like, should you quit -or should you stay at least until you find another job? It probably depends on just how much you hate your job. Listen as I explain the negative consequences of staying at a job that you hate and that stresses you out. It is probably worse than you thought. https://news.osu.edu/lousy-jobs-hurt-your-health-by-the-time-youre-in-your-40s/ Even though we spend a large percentage of time asleep, there is a lot you may not understand about the importance of sleep and how lack of sleep takes its toll on you. Listen as I speak with neurologist Dr. Guy Leschziner, who is head of The Sleep Disorders Centre in London, one of the largest sleep services in Europe and he is author of the book, The Nocturnal Brain: Nightmares, Neuroscience and the Secret World of Sleep (https://amzn.to/2lSckr0).
