When you shop for big ticket items like a house or car, it matters what day you choose to go – and probably for reasons you hadn’t thought of. This episode begins with the best and worst days to house hunt or car shop. https://www.weatherads.io/blog/how-weather-affects-consumer-behavior-and-purchase-decisions Clutter can really sneak up on you. First, it’s a drawer, then a spare closet, then the extra bedroom gets filled with all sorts of stuff. By then you have a house full of clutter that can be hard to manage. Joining me with some very simple and practical advice is Tracy McCubbin. Tracy is an organizing expert and author of the book Make Space for Happiness (https://amzn.to/3Um3Eny). Listen as she reveals the harm clutter can cause in your life and how to fix it.  Who doesn’t like pop culture? And if you do, you should know there is a lot of it on display at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History in Washington D.C. Joining me to discuss why pop culture is so popular and important is Kenneth Cohen, a research associate at the museum and editor of a book called Entertainment Nation: How Music, Television, Film, Sports, and Theater Shaped the United States (https://amzn.to/3DuRPnZ). You are invited as Kenneth takes us on a tour of some of the items in the collection including Dorothy’s ruby slippers from The Wizard of Oz, TV Superman’s costume, Prince’s yellow cloud guitar, Jerry Seinfeld’s puffy shirt and more. Few of us are sticklers for proper etiquette most of the time, however, there is one etiquette rule that always has been and always will be true – and you should use it whenever you can. Listen as I reveal what it is. Source: Valerie Sokolosky, author of Do It Right (https://amzn.to/3zGHX9G). PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!
