Speaker 1: It's been one of the greatest times I've had in
my many years of podcasting, sitting down and sharing conversations
with those that have appeared on NBC's The Voice. But
to find them, where are they? Well, they're now all
in one location. Aro dot net, Arroe dot net. Look
for the podcast That Voice. All right, here's the thing.
I like asking questions. It doesn't have to be on
a podcast. It can be in everyday life. I'm gonna
question you in everything that you're doing. Not because I'm
a grandfather and a father, but because I just have
one of those imaginations. It's an inquisitive mind, which the
National Inquirer back in the seventies and eighties really banked on.
But I am always asking questions. And the reason why
is because the fund begins when you start researching for
answers such as good news versus bad news? As a team,
do they feed our addiction to wanting to know everything? Plus?
Why are there so many accents not only around the world,
but in our low local communities. My name is Erro.
I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. I stand on
the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate.
I call it the daily mess. It's a chronological walk
through an everyday world. Yeah, it's my morning writing as
a receiver of thoughts and ideas. We as people tend
to throw things to the side because we think we're
gonna deal with it later on. Well. Being a student
of Julia Cameron's the artist way, I'm talking about every
book she's ever put out, I am that student. You're
not going to walk through life without asking questions. When
a subject arrives inside of me, I know it's time
to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal, but
by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This is
the daily mess. Good news versus bad news? Is it true?
Any news feeds our addiction of wanting to know everything?
I mean, I think you already know this, mainly because
no day passes that I'm not seeing more peace people
on their smartphones versus those who are enjoying the beauty
of this natural planet. Number one, the brain craves resolutions.
Humans hate not knowing good news or bad news. We
want answers right now. Number two dopamine, Oh God, dopamine
doesn't judge good versus bad. It only responds to the anticipation.
Number three, bad news will always feed vigilance. Humans always
pay close attention to the potential of their being a threat.
Knowing this leads us right into number four. Good news
needs to feed hope, Holding on to possibility, relief and
joy is always at the top of each and every
one of our lists. And then we face the ultimate
number five, the maybe loop. Oh God, maybe maybe the
story gets better, Maybe oh it gets worse, all this
while taking on number six social media and how it
exploits good as well as bad news that constant need
to always know it is coming with one hell of
a price. And I can still hear my father today.
Stop being a know it all, just stop coming up next,
if everybody pretty much came from England, why are there
so many different accents around the world, especially in our
local communities. Hey, welcome back to the daily Mess. Okay,
so we all know that we pretty much came from England.
Why are there so many different accents? Then? I love
how science sent me this equation to truly figure out
time plus distance plus mixing it equals new accent. Oh yeah.
Although many settlers did arrive from England, they all didn't
speak the same tongue once they arrived here. The wide
open space of this new place called America made communicating
even more local as well as centralized. Research shows that
distance changes the way we speak, the north versus the South.
The more isolated a community is, the more it's speech
changes over the generations. Now take that accent and mix
it up with the sounds of Native American languages, African, Dutch, French,
and German rhythm, tone and pronunciation. They are massively in charge.
Your accent is your social identity. The truth is the
settlers didn't stay long enough in a particular community to
develop one certain accent. I mean, look at how fast
we change while vacationing in different places. I mean, I'm
here in the South now I can pick up that
Southern accent in a heartbeat, but then go out to
Seattle or California and go totally Pacific northwest on you.
But that's the that we are. That's why people when
they talk about the way that I share conversations on
a podcast around the radio, they will sit there and say,
oh my god, you've got the gift. Here's the thing.
I do not have the gift. What I am is
the end result of program directors and radio station consultants
with general manager Saltan pepperd In that told me and
really drove it to my soul, I need you to
say it this way, not your way, but this way.
And when I didn't say it that way, they'd pull
me back into those meetings and say, hmm, we were
thinking about maybe pulling somebody else in from a different
part of the country. Oh crap, I'm arrow. And that's
the daily mess
