Ep 9 | Reintroduction and Charge Rage Rows
<p>The episode where you get to know us on camera as we reintroduce ourselves and unveil our beautiful deck space studio. We may battle a few mosquitos, wind and lawn blowers along the way but we love our new spot and can’t wait to show it off. Then we turn our attention to the rise of charging station rage incidents stemming from the lack of electrical charging stations in the UK. Is charge rage coming to a power station near you? With the power grid on life support in California and electric cars being pushed from every direction, are EVs both a green activist’s dream and a consumer nightmare? At some point, will rare earth Mongolian tailings ponds and lithium battery “recycling” catch up with us?

Ep 7 | Do We Care About Experts?
<p>In this episode we discuss the current state of “experts” in America. What exactly is an expert by today’s standards? We define the term “expert” and go deeper into the issue by examining the role that experts serve in the present day, especially with regard to the recent pandemic. Can experts be trusted or did we lose all trust after so many experts got it wrong? And does not trusting experts make you anti-intellectual? But first we revisit a 70s TV show and discuss the best of British mystery shows. We conclude our episode with a deep dive into the pros and cons (mostly cons) of tipping in the modern era – where everyone in line behind you can see whether or not you’re a good tipper. Should we be peer pressured into tipping?</p><p>Recorded January 2023, released September 30, 2023</p><p>Timestamps: </p><p>(0:00-1:58) - Reflection and Intro</p><p>(1:59-23:29) - Our newest TV Show Reviews.</p><p>(23:30-1:34:54) – Do we care about experts?</p><p>(1:34:55-1:58:18) – Modern tipping on the annoying screens where everyone can see you.</p><p>All Creatures Great and Small - <a target="_blank" href="https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/shows/all-creatures-great-and-small/">https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/shows/all-creatures-great-and-small/</a></p><p>America’s Political War Against Science and Experts - <a target="_blank" href="https://raywilliams.ca/americas-political-war-science-experts/">https://raywilliams.ca/americas-political-war-science-experts/</a></p><p>‘Had enough of experts?’ Anti-intellectualism is linked to voters’ support for movements that are skeptical of expertise - <a target="_blank" href="https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2017/08/30/had-enough-of-experts-anti-intellectualism-is-linked-to-voters-support-for-movements-that-are-skeptical-of-expertise/">https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2017/08/30/had-enough-of-experts-anti-intellectualism-is-linked-to-voters-support-for-movements-that-are-skeptical-of-expertise/</a></p><p>Starsky and Hutch - <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starsky_%26_Hutch">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starsky_%26_Hutch</a></p><p>The Anti-Expert Pandemic - <a target="_blank" href="https://harvardpolitics.com/anti-expert-pandemic/">https://harvardpolitics.com/anti-expert-pandemic/</a></p><p>The Dukes of Hazard - <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dukes_of_Hazzard">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dukes_of_Hazzard</a></p><p>The Rise of Experts - <a target="_blank" href="https://issues.org/the-rise-of-the-experts/">https://issues.org/the-rise-of-the-experts/</a></p><p>Tipping Is Out of Control.

Ep 6 | The Death of Customer Service
<p>The episode where we discuss the sad state of customer service in America. On any given day the hotel may lose your reservation, or the wait staff may never refill your water let alone show up to take your order. What’s happening with the service industry? Is it all in our heads or is there something more insidious going on. But first we discuss a familiar list of annoying words. Are you sick of these words too? And then we revisit the familiar old classic TV show Columbo. And stay tuned to the end for our opinion on a newly minted weather term. </p><p>Recorded January 2023, released September 15, 2023</p><p>Timestamps:</p><p>(0:00-1:16) – Reflection and Intro</p><p>(1:17-10:04) – More on banned and annoying words.</p><p>(10:05—23:38) – A new reason to watch Columbo.</p><p>(23:39-1:28:14) – How terrible is customer service?</p><p>(1:29:15-1:49:50) – Erin’s customer service debacle.</p><p>(1:49:51-1:57:20) – A brand new weather term, the Atmospheric River. </p><p>Columbo corrections: Gene Barry not George Barry and released on NBC not ABC.</p><p>Links for further review:</p><p>All Southwest Flights Were Temporarily Grounded Today—What Happened? - <a target="_blank" href="https://www.afar.com/magazine/all-southwest-airline-flights-grounded-today-what-happened">https://www.afar.com/magazine/all-southwest-airline-flights-grounded-today-what-happened</a></p><p>Banished Words - <a target="_blank" href="https://www.lssu.edu/traditions/banishedwords/">https://www.lssu.edu/traditions/banishedwords/</a></p><p>Columbo - <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbo">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbo</a></p><p>Customer Experience Vs.
