Chapter 1: What is the purpose of the Happiness Lab's partnership with GiveDirectly?
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.
That's givedirectly.org slash happiness lab.

Chapter 2: How can donations help families in extreme poverty?
This week, I am joined by Anna Runkle, also known as the Crappy Childhood Fairy, a creator, teacher, and guide helping people heal from the lasting emotional wounds of unsafe or chaotic childhoods.
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.

On the podcast Health Stuff, we are tackling all the health questions that keep you up at night.
I'm Dr. Priyanka Wally, a double board certified physician.
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.
In the United States, I mean, 50% of Americans are pre-diabetic.
How preventable is type 2?
Extremely. Listen to Health Stuff on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Chapter 3: What unique approach does the podcast 'A Really Good Cry' take towards trauma?
And? We kind of overshot it a bit. Over? $14.2 billion spent on Cyber Monday. That's nuts. So many curtain rods? So many. I did buy two. Wow. There we go, baby. A backup, just in case. Yeah, they're 40% off. That's amazing. No surprise, the peak was from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., right in the middle of the workday, where Americans were spending $13 million per minute.
I mean, I totally didn't do it during work hours. And no surprise, looks like in-store sales continued to trend down. Not just on Cyber Monday, but the entire Thanksgiving weekend. I saw an interview with some Gen Zers that were in line, like, stayed in line all night just for the experience of what it was like. Oh, yeah, because you don't have to do that.
And the news asked them, like, was it worth it? And they're like, no. No. We're good. It's 2025. Yeah. Maybe we shouldn't have ever done that.
But that's the thing.
Seriously. The feeling among more and more people is why battle the crowds when you can just shop from your bed?

Chapter 4: How does the podcast 'Health Stuff' redefine health discussions?
Seriously.
Or in Brooke's case, the toilet. Mm-hmm. Which is also the best. Not at work, I swear. It is where she's having dinner, though, so don't interrupt her. And it's the dinner table. We got half-off diamond-studded dog shock collars. Are we fancy? Yep, just for this special shot caller question of the day. So who's going to be blinged out while they're singed out? We'll find out in just a second.
Jake, let's do it. Back in this day in 2019, Spotify crowned Drake as the king of streams for that decade, 2010. He still is. With 28 billion listens. Yeah. Wow. We're close.
We're really close with our podcast.
Yeah. I mean, apparently the world needed to hear Hotline Bling 20 billion times. We need to listen to it. We're listening to it right now. But now we're halfway through the 2020s. Things have definitely changed and Drizzy has slipped all the way down to number three all time.
Gross. It's shameful. He was number one last year.
Kiki apparently doesn't love him that much. Yeah. That's why today you'll have to guess the rest of the top 10 during a special streaming, supreming edition of Plenty of 20.
Oh, man.

Chapter 5: What tips are offered for discussing gun safety with friends?
Now, listen up. Alexis, listen up.
Oh, listening.
I have a list of the top 10 most streamed music artists of all time.
Okay. The top 10.
All time. You just have to say a name from the list and you'll get to stay in the game.
Okay.
Most streamed of all time. I feel like you're emphasizing all time because it's old people. No, I'm just saying streaming happened recently, so probably going to be top on streaming apps, of which we won't name. Got it. We'll start with the woman who's publicly had to deny rumors that she's a secret love child from one of Drake's things with Barb.
Oh.
Remember the Rose Garden in 1998? Barb does.

Chapter 6: What significant trends were observed during Cyber Monday shopping?
Can you get any of the other nine? I feel like I'm actually going to guess number one right now. And this is a person that literally just says they're going to release a song and it's somehow streaming before it's released. Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift? It's number one on my list. 114.7 billion streams. That is insane. All right, Jose, number one and two are gone.
Can you name any of the other most streamed music artists of all time? Well, I had my answer stolen. I thought I was sneaky with Bad Bunny, but he's the second streamed all time. I don't think any of the top 10 are going to be sneaky. Yeah, I know. So I'm going to go with the least sneaky person I can think of now is Beyonce. Beyonce. Did not make our top 10. I'm sorry, Jose.
I was saving the easy answer, too. I'll tell you, number 10 on our list streamed 47.6 billion times, so that's the number you have to cross to get onto the list. Jeffrey, we're going on to you. We're talking top 10 most streamed music artists of all time, and I need an answer from you.
Why do I have a feeling you have no idea who's actually on this list? Here's the obvious answer.
I am following that exact feeling, Brooke, so that's why I'm just... I'm going to have to go off of what my personal friend and fourth favorite co-worker Brooke Fox was saying the other day. She said this person has been more influential in her life than her parents, her husband. This is going to be somewhat offensive.
I just know it.
She says all of her sorority friends all listen to this. What? If it's not Britney Spears. No, it's not. It's Kanye West. Oh, God. Big influence on Brooke's life. Yikes. Kanye. Number nine. Oh, my God. Thanks for that, Brooke. Of course he's number nine. 50.3 billion streams, and we're back to Alexis. I have seven names left on the board.
Ooh, if Drake's on there, I'm going to go his rival, Kendrick. Oh, good call. Kendrick Lamar. Ah. Not on the list. Alexis is out. Brooke, you need to get this right to stay in the game. It's so terrible that Kendrick didn't make it.
I know.
