1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: My entire radio life, forty three years of radio, and

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:06,400
I can still hear that voice when people say, what

3
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,240
is wrong with this guy? He's just being creative. What Yeah,

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,720
there's nothing wrong with him. He's okay. He does weird things,

5
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,839
he says stupid stuff. Sometimes, just leave him alone. He's

6
00:00:17,879 --> 00:00:20,559
just being creative. Unplugged because we will always say yes

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,239
to creativity, totally uncut, because we all make mistakes, so

8
00:00:24,359 --> 00:00:27,239
use it as a tool. This is arrow unplugged. I

9
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:31,600
think it's the craziest feeling. Something doesn't feel right, and

10
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:34,960
let's say your leg or your tummy, maybe on your arm,

11
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,479
and somehow, some way it affects everything that you're doing

12
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,399
that day. It's like, oh, my finger hurts, Well, what

13
00:00:41,439 --> 00:00:45,039
did you do? I don't know, it hurts, and everything

14
00:00:45,079 --> 00:00:50,039
that you do, your decision making, your planning, everything is infected.

15
00:00:50,079 --> 00:00:53,039
It's almost like the pain from that injured finger is

16
00:00:53,079 --> 00:00:56,000
a poison. What about the pain in your head and

17
00:00:56,039 --> 00:00:59,119
your heart? How much of that is silenced or is

18
00:00:59,159 --> 00:01:04,640
it embrace, loved, healed or does it constantly hit you

19
00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:10,400
every five seconds and it poisons the way you think,

20
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,000
the way you act and react and reply, Oh my god,

21
00:01:15,159 --> 00:01:18,799
the way we reply. Sometimes to other people, a simple

22
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,280
question or a request is brought forward and it's like

23
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:34,640
say whoa okay, what hurts you? Nos hey zero. This

24
00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:37,319
is the daily Mess, a chronological walk through in everyday world.

25
00:01:37,359 --> 00:01:41,200
I am a daily writer, a silent wolf. I sit

26
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,920
underneath the brush and I watch life. I hear life,

27
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,040
I envision. I don't try to change. I'm just there

28
00:01:49,519 --> 00:01:52,400
to listen then write about it. This is the daily mess.

29
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,680
My essential job includes lighteen employees, those that are anywhere

30
00:01:57,719 --> 00:02:02,519
between fifteen and nineteen years old. Their first step toward

31
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:05,439
earning money is that job, before heading out there to

32
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,680
college or just doing something on their own. In a

33
00:02:07,719 --> 00:02:11,840
really big but very small world. Because of the conditions

34
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,599
of this modern day political planet, I really wanted to

35
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,360
know did they ever think of the nuclear threats coming

36
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,199
our way from North Korea and Russia? Do you think

37
00:02:22,199 --> 00:02:25,520
about it? Are you worried about it? And they all

38
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,120
said no. No. One did say it's not that we

39
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,560
don't think about it or talk about it. We just

40
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:37,360
don't invest in making it a reason to bring up fear. Oh,

41
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,919
which I totally understand. Oh yeah, oh yeah, because with

42
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:46,159
everything going wrong in the world and especially locally. The

43
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,919
thought of out of control bombs destroying things forever feels

44
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,240
more like a sci fi flick than physicality. As young

45
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,400
adults still in high school, there are other methods of madness.

46
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,879
Staying focused on now is what is now, and it

47
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,639
helps provide them a stronger core of survival. Come on,

48
00:03:07,479 --> 00:03:12,919
we all worry. Thinking openly about it helps heal other people.

49
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,639
Remember every news story that's on the five o'clock news,

50
00:03:16,759 --> 00:03:20,360
and the front page of that newspaper always talks about

51
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,479
the silent neighbor, the one the people next door always say,

52
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,120
he was very quiet. I didn't think twice about him.

53
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,039
He was just always there. He's the one that did it.

54
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,560
Are you asking the questions? Have you talked with your teenagers?

55
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,759
What is going through their head in this moment of

56
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,599
where we stand on this planet? An economy in the

57
00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:47,879
United States that they keep saying it's getting worse, it's

58
00:03:47,919 --> 00:03:51,599
getting worse. Let me tell you right now, My parents

59
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:53,800
did not pay for food as much as we are today.

60
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,120
They did not the price of gas. They did not

61
00:03:56,159 --> 00:03:58,360
pay the price of gas the way we are today.

62
00:03:59,199 --> 00:04:02,599
But they always said that they lived the harder times.

63
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,439
And if the people that are in control of the economy,

64
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:08,439
are saying it's headed here, it's gonna be a bad time.

65
00:04:10,719 --> 00:04:13,599
I have to shake my head because how long have

66
00:04:13,639 --> 00:04:16,160
they been saying this, and how long can you say

67
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,480
the sky is falling before the rest of us say, eh, eh,

68
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,759
Let's go someplace else. Let's find our news someplace else.

69
00:04:24,319 --> 00:04:26,439
The same is true about the war in Ukraine a

70
00:04:26,519 --> 00:04:28,920
year ago. We were all talking about it today. It

71
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,879
just seems to be a part of our life. But

72
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,759
in fact we should always embrace what is going on

73
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,800
over there and not to get political. I don't want

74
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,360
to do that. We know what's happening, we know the

75
00:04:38,439 --> 00:04:44,439
violations that have taken place, but nobody is being held accountable. Okay,

76
00:04:45,079 --> 00:04:46,839
so what are we going to do about it? As

77
00:04:46,879 --> 00:04:50,480
a globe, that's what we're waiting for. It's almost like

78
00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:54,120
the second coming of Christ. We're waiting. They said he's coming.

79
00:04:54,879 --> 00:04:59,000
Where's he at? Is it today? If it was today,

80
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,759
would we recognize him or would he be arrested just

81
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:10,480
like he was before he started to rise? Whoooo? The

82
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:15,360
essential job, every one of our jobs. They are blanketed

83
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,720
and blessed with the next generation that follows us. Ask

84
00:05:20,079 --> 00:05:24,079
the questions, find out where they are and how they feel.

85
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,439
You don't have to agree, but at least you're asking.

86
00:05:28,319 --> 00:05:30,519
I'm Marrow, and that's the daily mess.
