About this episode

How often do you clean your cellphone? Chances are you don’t do it often unless the screen starts to get a little gross. This episode begins with some interesting intel that will have you cleaning your phone much more often than you likely do now. https://www.statefoodsafety.com/Resources/Resources/the-dirty-cell-phone-25-127-bacteria-per-square-inch#

We all face big challenges in life. Yet, when it comes to the things that really take a toll and wear us down, it’s the little hassles and frustrations that do the most damage. Your ability to handle the little things life throws at you is what determines the quality of your life, according to my guest Dr. Samantha Boardman, a clinical instructor in psychiatry and attending psychiatrist at Weill Cornell Medical College. She is founder of https://www.PositivePrescription.com and author of the book Everyday Vitality: Turning Stress into Strength (https://amzn.to/3szCZHB). Listen as she offers some extremely practical strategies to navigate the daily troubles we all face without letting them take such a big toll on you.

Before you ever walk into an Italian, Mexican or Japanese, you already have a pretty good idea of what will be on the menu. Yet, when it comes to American food, is there such a thing as American cuisine? What do people in other countries think of when they think of American food? That’s what Paul Freedman decided to explore. And what he found is fascinating. Paul is a history professor at Yale University and author of the book American Cuisine: And How it Got This Way (https://amzn.to/3JjoO03). Listen as he reveals some of the history and stories that shaped what Americans eat today.

Is being happy good for your health? The answer is yes, but not necessarily in the way you think. Listen as I explain what researchers found that will really make you want to be happy and stay happy. https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/magazine/happiness-stress-heart-disease
