1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,279 Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction, unplugged because we will always say 2 00:00:03,359 --> 00:00:06,519 yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes. 3 00:00:06,759 --> 00:00:09,839 Speaker 2: So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged? 4 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:10,679 Is it me? Am? 5 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:13,759 Speaker 1: I going totally insane here that every time my nose 6 00:00:13,839 --> 00:00:17,920 fills up? It's not allergies anymore. Na, man, you probably 7 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,079 got COVID, or you could have RSV. You might be 8 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,359 coming down with the flu. It just seems like allergies 9 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,920 are getting a bad rap. They really do. It's like 10 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,719 whatever happened to old fashioned allergies where your nose would 11 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,520 just get all swollen and your eyes are just, oh, 12 00:00:34,679 --> 00:00:38,359 just watering all the time, and your body aches. Now 13 00:00:38,399 --> 00:00:41,520 people hear you sneezing, It's like where's your mask at? 14 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,560 Why aren't you wearing a mask? It's who we've become. 15 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,399 And I have to ask that question. If I've got allergies, 16 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,039 why isn't my allergy medicine work? And I might as 17 00:00:51,039 --> 00:00:51,880 well just be sitting. 18 00:00:51,719 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 2: Here questioning my nose together and talking like this all 19 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,159 the time. Hey, it's a arrow. 20 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,119 Speaker 1: This is the daily Mess, a chronological walk through an 21 00:00:59,119 --> 00:01:02,200 everyday world. I am a daily writer. I've been doing 22 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,439 that for thirty years. I'm the silent wolf. I sit 23 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:11,040 on the sides and I just watch, observing, listening, and 24 00:01:11,079 --> 00:01:13,519 then kind of doing some research so that we can 25 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,120 have a conversation. This is the daily mess. It is 26 00:01:17,159 --> 00:01:19,799 allergy season, and that means a lot of people are 27 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,239 trying to push themselves beyond nature's challenges and curses. You 28 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,640 can see it in their eyes, hear it in their voices, 29 00:01:27,719 --> 00:01:31,280 watch it in their body language. It seems like last 30 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,599 year's remedy no longer wants to work, and I got 31 00:01:34,599 --> 00:01:35,480 to ask that question. 32 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: Has pollen changed? 33 00:01:37,719 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 1: Are the bees that are just right down the road 34 00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:43,719 from me in this forest are they doing something differently 35 00:01:43,799 --> 00:01:46,640 that I need to prep for. Speaking of those bees, 36 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,599 I do have to laugh at the amazing amount of 37 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,959 people that are buying honey right now. But what they 38 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,920 don't realize. It's got to be local honey that gets 39 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,719 you working right, Local honey, not something from California or 40 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,719 another country. The reason behind honey being a giant relief 41 00:02:04,879 --> 00:02:07,159 has a lot to do with the atmosphere of where 42 00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:10,360 you presently live, and it will help you out with breathing. 43 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,960 But it's not going to be like overnight I remember 44 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,000 the days when my daughter was attending UCLA in Los Angeles. 45 00:02:16,159 --> 00:02:18,319 We would always be out there in the big city 46 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,639 and I could breathe so well. While in Los Angeles, 47 00:02:22,719 --> 00:02:25,240 here's the city that has smog that's enough to weigh 48 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,000 you down for the rest of your life. And yet 49 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,159 when I got out in LA I could breathe. But 50 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,280 when I came home to the Carolinas, Oh, I. 51 00:02:33,319 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 2: Don't know what's gotten into me. 52 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: Oh the allergies just go crazy. And so I've done 53 00:02:40,719 --> 00:02:44,439 some research. Can we lock ourselves inside our homes and 54 00:02:44,479 --> 00:02:47,520 not have to worry about allergies? And the answer to 55 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,879 that is it's not going to happen, which is the 56 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,520 reason why I have an ionizer. All of that stuff 57 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,719 that you're allergic to finds its way into your house, 58 00:02:56,039 --> 00:02:58,000 especially when you're driving in your car and you got 59 00:02:58,039 --> 00:03:00,599 to click on the air conditioning. All of that stuff 60 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,960 out there is now in you. So I have an 61 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000 ionizer that keeps my air clean and I'm able to 62 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,159 breathe inside. 63 00:03:08,439 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 2: But I have that fear of God. 64 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: If he goes outside, what will happen next? Well, I'll 65 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:20,199 probably suffer. But you just got to roll up your 66 00:03:20,199 --> 00:03:23,360 sleeves and move forward. What do you do to break 67 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,759 free of your allergies or are you in one of 68 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,199 those zones you don't have to worry about allergies, because 69 00:03:29,479 --> 00:03:33,879 is it allergies? Is it covid, is it RSV? Is 70 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,319 it the flu? We don't know. 71 00:03:37,479 --> 00:03:41,039 Speaker 2: That's where we are. I'm ero and that's the daily mess.
