77.825 - 83.953 Alex English

I vowed I will be his last target. He is not going to get away with this. He's going to get what he deserves.

Hey, what's good, y'all? You're listening to Learn the Hard Way with your favorite therapist and host, Keir Gaines. This space is about Black men's experiences, having honest conversations that it's really not safe to have anywhere, but you're having them with a licensed professional who knows what he's doing. How many men...

147.113 - 166.017 Keir Gaines

carry a suit of armor it signals to the world that you not to be played with and just because you have the capability that does not mean that you need to listen to learn the hard way on the iheart radio app apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast we gotta start by doing a quick poll of the room update on

167.245 - 190.161 Michael Easter

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. The question, using emojis in work emails. Is it dank or super dank? Alexis. Well, I always like just type out a smiley face, but then it turns it into an emoji for me. But I wanted just a hand typed one. Upside down smiley face to that. Brooke. It depends on the recipient.

191.042 - 191.503 Jeffrey

Okay.

191.523 - 204.64 Michael Easter

Is that a, you know, if it's like our boss or somebody I know well in the office, absolutely. Green barf emoji to you. Jose, emojis in your work email. I think just a smile or a reaction to an email. Somebody thumbed up an email.

204.66 - 205.441 Jeffrey

Oh, I hate that.

Chapter 3: How do emojis affect communication in the workplace?

246.371 - 269.717 Michael Easter

Like you can't write a sentence with the meaning being clear without using them. Plain text still comes across as being the most professional, but researchers also found the number one emoji you should never send in a work message. Any guesses on that? I would say it's a vegetable. There's a lot of options. The hole in the ground. Or a peach. Yeah. A middle finger. That's a good one.

0

269.737 - 293.976 Michael Easter

Unless it's your last email. None of those made the list. It's actually the angry face emoji. Oh, yeah. Sending an angry face can seriously hurt how other co-workers in the office see you. Even if the words in your message are totally reasonable, adding like a scowling red face just makes you seem less capable. Yeah, less capable of writing a real passive-aggressive email back. Exactly.

0

294.016 - 305.212 Michael Easter

Do it like a grown-up. But if you want to seem super professional, you can go shock your coworkers with a dog shock collar every day. Everybody in our office respects us when we do it.

0

305.513 - 305.593 Jeffrey

Yes.

0

305.613 - 317.17 Michael Easter

Totally. So let's get into it for the shock collar question of the day. Enough talking for me. Jake, go ahead. All right. On this day back in 2015, the first Apple Watch was released.

318.011 - 318.231 Jeffrey

Wow.

318.331 - 321.035 Michael Easter

Suddenly we weren't just checking our phones 200 times a day.

Chapter 4: What is the significance of the Apple Watch's release date?

321.055 - 323.699 Michael Easter

Now we had smart watches judging us too.

324.841 - 342.959 Michael Easter

It's like, hey, you haven't stood up for a while. Are you pacing yourself or are you just giving up completely? Or it's even worse where it's like, that's too much. Do you need an ambulance? But of course, the Apple Watch isn't the only innovative tech product to drop in the last few decades. Dozens of new consumer devices have changed our lives.

0

343.32 - 372.393 Michael Easter

The question is, do you remember when they came out? That's your challenge today during a special I Before or I After edition of... Plenty of 20. You'll give me a number 1 through 20. I'll tell you the name of a popular gizmo or gadget, and then I'll give you a year that's incorrect for its release date. You just have to decide if it was created I before or I after that date. Very catchy.

0

372.413 - 395.972 Michael Easter

I get it. We'll start with the woman who puts the odd in iPod. That's Alexis. Nine. Before your wrist could text people that you regret texting, this device changed how we all ignored each other in public. The first iPhone hit shelves. Was that before or after 2008? 2008, where was I?

396.442 - 421.858 Michael Easter

uh school i imagine she was in daycare after school programs did you get the first edition iphone or did you jump on in the later editions i think this time i might have still done like a pink flip phone like the verizon flip phone thing oh like a razor so a bejeweled one obviously yes okay wait so sarah had that in 2008 if the new i don't know i can't even do the math let's just say i after it's a 50 50.

421.838 - 429.987 Michael Easter

That's incorrect. It was 2007. So why was I stuck with a flip phone, Barb? Come on.

430.007 - 430.367

All right.

431.228 - 452.291 Michael Easter

We're over to Brooke. Brooke 9 is off the board. I want I-10. Before we were all yelling at a cylinder in our kitchen, this voice assistant moved into people's homes. The first Amazon Echo came out before or after 2015. Every radio station was so excited about y'all having those in your house.

Chapter 5: What challenges do the hosts face in the game?

464.063 - 466.266 Michael Easter

Yeah, no, I think he gave me like a pin.

0

466.646 - 467.167 Jeffrey

Oh, yeah.

0

467.387 - 471.391 Michael Easter

I got cool gifts from Jeff. Okay. Okay, why are we slamming my gifts?

0
0

471.451 - 496.892 Michael Easter

Don't get me started on the coffee mug. Okay, this is about the Echo, guys. 2015, I think it came after. After? Incorrect. I'm sorry. The Echo came out before in 2014. All right, we're 0 for 2. Jose, we're over to you. 9 and 10 are off the board. Let's go. Keep going, let's go 11. Okay, up the board. Before we all became amateur photographers of our food, this app launched.

497.312 - 525.322 Michael Easter

Instagram dropped before or after 2012. Oh my goodness. I actually do remember downloading it, and it was like the old square camera logo. But I feel like it's older than I realized, so I'm going to say I before. Jose thinks Instagram came out before 2012. Uh-oh, uh-oh. He's correct. Yes! Oh, my gosh! 2010, Instagram came out and turned brunch into a full production studio.

525.342 - 525.822 Jeffrey

Yes, it did.

525.922 - 549.079 Michael Easter

Jose's gotten his right. He's the only one so far. Jeffrey, we're over to you. We're talking about technology advancements over the last couple years because the Apple Watch came out in 2015, and now we're over to you, and I need a number. Number five. Before we all trusted strangers on the internet to drive us places, this ride app launched. Uber started before or after 2011.

549.312 - 550.774 Jeffrey

Oh, man.

Chapter 6: Which popular gadgets are referenced in the discussion?

551.514 - 578.503 Michael Easter

Well, this is easy, because I started my job here in 2010, and I was always wasted coming into work, so I had to Uber in. It was I before. Wow, I before? He nailed it. Thanks to Jeff's drunkenness, he knows that Uber hit the seat in 2009 and convinced everyone, yeah, just get in the car. It's fine. That means we're here for a tiebreaker. Between Jeffrey and Jose. Jose, we're going to you.

0

578.523 - 604.459 Michael Easter

If you get this right, you'll win. If you get it wrong, Jeffrey's going to win today. Intense. Before your TV started spying on your watch history, this streaming service mailed you movies instead. Netflix began before or after the year 2000. Hmm. Whoa, you know what? I think it was a very small company and it didn't blow up until the 2000s. So I'm confident in saying I before.

0

604.78 - 628.711 Michael Easter

I'm with you, Jose. Brooke agrees. Let's go. And he's correct. 1997 is when Netflix started mailing DVDs. My stepdad used to take them and burn them all and then we'd have the copies of them and then send them back. Smart. That doesn't mean in a fire for anyone who is too young. It's copying. No, illegally stealing them is what I meant. That means Jose has won today's edition of Plenty of 20.

0

628.791 - 647.031 Michael Easter

So, Jose, you get to choose who gets shocked. They're going to be singing Blinding Lights by The Weeknd. Who's that going to be? Definitely not going to be you, Jeff, because you gave me a great gift, and it was reminded and brought up today. Definitely on purpose. You're on my good side. I think I'm going to have to just go with Alexis. I said ooh. I'm blinded by the light.

0

647.051 - 656.971 Michael Easter

No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch. That's your shot caller question of the day.
