What charitable initiative is highlighted in this episode?
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.
How does the podcast aim to address poverty this season?
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.

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.

How preventable is type 2?

Talking about guns with others might not always feel comfortable, but it could save a life. Here's a way to start a conversation. Your family is going over to your neighbor's home for dinner for the first time. How would you ask if there are any unlocked guns in the home?
Hey!
Hey, we're so excited for tonight. Before we come over, though, may I ask if there are any unlocked guns in your home?
Our guns are stored securely, locked in a safe that the kids can't access.
Awesome. Learn how to have the conversation at agree2agree.org. Brought to you by the Ad Council.
It's not really Christmas without a little bit of controversy. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. What do we got this year, Jeff? Well, a Christmas tree farm in New Jersey is getting a ton of backlash for the unique thing that they've been doing, selling colorful spray-painted Christmas trees. You can see the photos on the Brooke and Jeffrey Insta stories. I'm going to show you photos here. I mean, that's kind of like the flocked ones, right? Those are basically sprayed with stuff to make them look white.
What unique questions are posed about masculinity and healing?
I don't know which ones those are, but these are all real trees that come in an array of colors, including pink, purple, blue, turquoise, magenta, red, and black. So what's so controversial about that tree? It's probably just that they're real trees. Like, why buy a real tree if you want one that's pink? I could see someone wanting a pink tree if it's their favorite color. That's not what it is. Apparently, some holiday humbugs are worried about bringing, quote, hazardous chemicals into their homes. I was going to say, it does look like it's heavily chemically. Because, I guess, the tree farm uses some kind of toxic latex-based paint in order to coat them.
