Chapter 1: What are the weirdest news stories featured in this episode?

This is a space where men speak truth and find the power to heal and transform. I'm Mike Della Rocha. Welcome to Sacred Lessons.

Dr. Laurie Santos from the Happiness Lab here. It's the season of giving, and this year my podcast, The Happiness Lab, is partnering with GiveDirectly, a nonprofit that provides people in extreme poverty with the cash they need as part of the Pods Fight Poverty campaign. Our goal this year is to raise $1 million, which will bring over 700 families out of extreme poverty.

Your donation will put cash directly in the hands of these families in need. And they'll get to decide how to use it, whether that's school transportation, purchasing livestock, or starting a business. Plus, if you're a first-time donor, your gift will be matched by giving multiplier, which means more money for those in need. Visit givedirectly.org slash happiness lab to learn more and to donate.

The social media trend is landing some Gen Zers in jail.

Chapter 2: How did a car explode in a TikTok video?

80.248 - 99.954 Unknown

The progressive media darling whose public meltdown got her fired. And the massive TikTok boycott against Target that actually makes no sense. You won't hear about these online stories in the mainstream media. But you can keep up with them and all the other entertaining and outrageous things happening online, in media, and in politics with the Brad vs. Everyone podcast.

Talking about trauma isn't always great for people. It's not always the best thing. About a third of people who are traumatized as kids feel worse when they talk about it, get very dysregulated.

141.339 - 144.363 Dr. Priyanka Wally

I'm Dr. Priyanka Wally, a double board certified physician.

144.503 - 154.897 Hari Kundabolu

And I'm Hari Kundabolu, a comedian and someone who once Googled, do I have scurvy at 3 a.m.? And on our show, we're talking about health in a different way, like our episode where we look at diabetes.

Chapter 3: What surprising item survived a car fire?

155.577 - 159.823 Dr. Priyanka Wally

In the United States, I mean, 50% of Americans are pre-diabetic.

0

159.938 - 162.425 Hari Kundabolu

How preventable is type 2?

0

162.887 - 169.847 Dr. Priyanka Wally

Extremely. Listen to Health Stuff on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

176.105 - 200.528 Mike Della Rocha

It's the radio segment that's getting in on the sleep industry with a controversial new product that takes your own fat from your body and injects it into the mattresses for even more cushion and an extra restful sleep. It's called Fatresses. Look out, Tempur-Pedics. The Fatress is here. You may want to sleep on the left side. There's a cellulite on the right side.

0

200.589 - 214.015 Mike Della Rocha

I sleep with a fat number four. Get yours with laser stories. I've got the belly button on my side. Segment where we read weird news stories around the globe, just like everyone else does, except we've got a laser. The other pillow punchers just don't.

Chapter 4: What are the most popular spying techniques among partners?

214.296 - 227.445 Mike Della Rocha

This first laser story is out of Massachusetts. A woman named Danielle Marie had one of the worst days of her life. As she was driving to work, she was involved in an accident and her car exploded in a fire.

0

228.327 - 228.808 Hari Kundabolu

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

0

229.666 - 248.982 Mike Della Rocha

Luckily, she was able to escape without harm, but not her car. In her TikTok video, you can see her walk up to the charred remains of her red four-door sedan. The window is busted out, the seats are all melted, and the entire interior is just a big smoky mess. Ain't nobody got time for that.

0

249.082 - 254.452 Unknown

That is crazy. What is she going to do, drive off? It's fine, guys. That's what Alexis would do.

0

254.653 - 265.613 Mike Della Rocha

After that, she reaches down to the cup holder where her Stanley water bottle is. It has a small black mark on the handle, but other than that, the gold finish is largely untouched.

Chapter 5: How does living in a small town affect relationship dynamics?

266.335 - 280.926 Mike Della Rocha

I can survive anything. That's when she picks it up and shakes it. And even after going through a fire, the Stanley still has ice in it. Those things are weapons. They could save you. That's amazing, though.

0

280.946 - 281.307

Are you serious?

0

281.641 - 289.276 Mike Della Rocha

It's kind of crazy. Her video exploded with over 30 million views with almost everyone calling on Stanley to give her a new cup.

0

289.597 - 291.802 Dr. Priyanka Wally

Sounds like these things should have a lifetime warranty.

0

291.902 - 305.249 Mike Della Rocha

The president of the company finally chimed in saying, I've seen a lot of comments that we should send you some Stanleys and we will, but there's one more thing. We would love to replace your vehicle. What? What? That's right.

Chapter 6: What decade was voted the best for music and movies?

305.269 - 323.316 Mike Della Rocha

Oh, my gosh. Stanley is gifting the woman a new car. Hey! So instead of insurance, you can just get a Stanley Cup. So much cheaper. I'm going to buy one and then set my car on fire. Why don't we make the whole car out of the Stanley Cup? That's a good point, Jose. She would be a Stanley vehicle.

0

323.336 - 330.772 Mike Della Rocha

A lot of people are skeptical that she didn't just place the cup there after it burned down and that it might just be fake for publicity.

0

330.912 - 339.39 Unknown

Oh, my God. I mean, that'd be a genius video. But then after it goes so long, you can't go out and say, oh, I lied. You're like, oh, I didn't think people were actually going to believe that. Totally.

0

Chapter 7: What food trends are popular in the 2020s?

339.472 - 345.193 Mike Della Rocha

But Danielle is sticking to her story that the cup and the ice survived the fire inside of the car.

0

345.554 - 348.345 Unknown

She has to get that new car. Yeah. Good for her.

348.566 - 360.285 Mike Della Rocha

This next laser story is out of Relationship World. Would you be more likely to spy on your significant other if you lived in a busy metropolis or wherever the TV show Ice Road Truckers was set?

0

360.726 - 369.175 Dr. Priyanka Wally

Probably in a metropolis. I'll tell you right now, Ice Road Truckers. Do we have to pick one? I have lived in small towns. I grew up in a small town. There is nothing to do.

0

369.255 - 379.166 Mike Della Rocha

I have the answer. A survey of 5,000 people found that about half of adults have had a partner who was unfaithful and about 13% of them found out by spying on them.

380.988 - 381.088

Okay.

Chapter 8: How does the podcast explore the impact of cultural trends?

381.76 - 394.776 Mike Della Rocha

The most popular spying techniques include tracking their phone, monitoring their social media accounts, checking credit card bills, going through their pockets, and physically following them.

0

394.796 - 399.082 Unknown

Wow. Much easier to do in a small town. It is. It's only two roads. Where are you going to go?

0

399.182 - 401.805 Mike Della Rocha

If you're on the ice road, that would suck at the start of the ice road.

0

402.886 - 403.167 Unknown

Here we go.

0

403.187 - 406.671 Mike Della Rocha

100 miles ice. Did we miss any techniques that we should know about, Brooke?

406.651 - 410.876 Unknown

Waiting in bushes? Is that not part of it? Is that physical?

411.316 - 418.605 Mike Della Rocha

Yeah, that's following them. The states where people are most likely to spy on their partner are some of the least populated ones.

418.625 - 419.246 Dr. Priyanka Wally

See, I told you.

419.786 - 425.953 Mike Della Rocha

Alaska is the most paranoid with 55% of people saying they've snooped on their significant other before.
