About this episode

Which is better at stopping a cough - cough syrup with codeine or chocolate? This episode begins with some surprising intel on what works to stop that nagging urge to cough. https://www.tasteofhome.com/article/chocolate-can-fight-coughs-better-than-some-cold-medicine/

What’s your favorite Christmas movie? Could it be White Christmas or It’s a Wonderful Life or maybe Home Alone? Well, whatever it is, it will likely come up in my conversation with film historian Jeremy Arnold. Jeremy teamed up with Turner Classic movies and is author of a book called Christmas in the Movies: 30 Classics To Celebrate the Season. (https://amzn.to/3GzDZ3S). Listen as we discuss some of the interesting back stories and facts about several of the most iconic Christmas movies of all time. 

If you are having a flare-up of allergy symptoms, it could be your Christmas tree. Listen as I explain what the problem is and how best to deal with it. https://www.entandallergyspecialists.com/uncategorized/can-christmas-trees-cause-allergy-symptoms/

Sarcasm is really a strange way to communicate. Yet we all do it. Why? Well, it can be very effective and also very funny. And it has other effects on us you likely don’t realize. Penny Pexman, a professor of psychology at the University of Calgary studies sarcasm and she has some wonderful insight into who tends to be more sarcastic, why and what it does to our interactions and relationships with other people. BTW, Penny has a free coloring book for kids to help them understand sarcasm. You can download it at: www.Childresearchgroup.ca
