Speaker 1: I like asking questions. The reason why is because the
fund begins when you start researching for answers such as
why are podcasts gaining in such popularity? In twenty twelve,
I was told by decision makers at the nation's largest
broadcast company that whatever I'm doing, keep it up. We
don't understand what you're doing, but it looks very interesting.
Plus falling asleep after dinner, what gives here? My name
is Erro. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. That
means I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study,
then activate. I happen to call it the daily Mess,
a chronological walk through an everyday world. Yeah, it's my
morning pages. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we
as people tend to throw things to the side because
we think we're going to deal with it later. Well,
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. Why are podcasts gaining in global popularity?
I mean, when the blue haired ladies are really coming
up to you and saying I listened to podcasts all
the time you know something is up well. Research quickly
shows that the number one reason why listeners are choosing
to tap into a podcast is do one hundred percent
to convenience and flexibility. People can listen at any time, anywhere.
Unlike video and written content, podcasts don't require your full attention.
The number two reason niche content and personal connection. It
is so important. The top shows are true crime, history,
self help, and comedy. Number three, people jump into a
podcast because streaming has made it so incredibly easy to reach.
The shift away from traditional media has led listeners to
seek more personalized and on demand options. Podcasters are looked
upon as being trusted voices in a very noisy world.
Mainstream media is still all about sensationalizing, whereas the host
of a podcast speaks with depth, nuance, and authenticity. Podcasts
meet listeners right where they are when they want it.
Listeners physically feel like they're part of the conversation. Hey,
coming up next that after dinner nap? What gives here?
That's time lost? Right? Hey, thanks for coming back to
the daily mess. Why do we fall asleep after dinner?
It's time lost and we aren't getting any of it back.
This is such a common human reaction. Digestion requires energy.
Your body naturally readdirects blood to the digestive system. The
food needs to be broken down, the blood supply shifts
it takes away from the brain, which leads to falling asleep.
Eating too much at once can lead to sluggishness. Your
body is working hard to digest that stuff. That extra
strain can drain your body of its energy. And if
you're one who includes beer, water and mix drinks to
your dinner, guess what. That leads to drowsiness. So how
do we keep our eyes open after a well earned dinner?
Nutrition less say it's time to go lighter. Don't eat
so much heavy food, avoid overeating, and always include protein
and fiber to slow sugar spikes. One of the greatest
things you can do after dinner is to go for
a walk. Wow, that's kind of interesting because most people
take a walk, maybe do some exercises, and then eat wrong.
Go for a walk after you've had something to eat.
I'm marrow and that's the daily mess.
