In this episode of Business Marriage we reflect on the importance of switching off and relaxing. Having just got back from a lovely relaxing family holiday, we really need a break. We reflect on our work-life balance, or the “life blend” we have created for ourselves (hopefully that term catches on!), and how we enjoy working hard but need to recognise when to switch off. James worries about how he looks on camera whilst Hayley uses the time for some personal shoutouts! We also get our first call-in about some particularly muggy behaviour and reveal the Tinder profiles we've written for each other... If you need to switch off with your dinosaur-obsessed children, and happen to be in Norfolk, you could do much worse than today's Small Business Shoutout: ROARR! Dinosaur Park! https://roarr.co.uk/ It's a great day out for the whole family, especially if you love dinosaurs! Get involved with the show via https://www.businessmarriagepod.com/ and if you are Ryan Gosling, email us at hello@businessmarriagepod.com! In this episode you will hear:  How our family holiday went Why our life blend consists of hard work and complete stops Why we came up with the term “life blend” The value of understanding when to switch off How to find the Tinder profiles we've written for each other Check out Hayley's business at https://www.orangelamb.co.uk/ This podcast is produced by Phonic Media Business Marriage is the non-celebrity couple podcast that brings you the real and honest conversations that couples all over the world are having about life, family, work and everything in between.

I was in dire need of a vacay so I spun my Wonder Globe and stopped it on none other than... Weber County, Utah. Come along with me on this pod to hear of my wonderful experiences in this "heavenly yet humble" county! From the Dinosaur Park to a seeing a mountain goat on a (you guessed it) mountain, there are somewhat exciting things to do in Weber County! After visiting this fantastic county, it had me saying my new favorite catch phrase - "Leave it to Weber" - for a week straight.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/anthony-holcomb/support

Listen in your favorite podcast app.  Ari Gronich 0:00 Has it occurred to you that the systems we live by are not designed to get results? We pay for procedures instead of outcomes, focusing on emergencies rather than preventing disease and living a healthy lifestyle. For over 25 years, I've taken care of Olympians Paralympians a list actors in fortune 1000 companies, if I did not get results, they did not get results. I realized that while powerful people who control the system wants to keep the status quo. If I were to educate the masses, you would demand change. So I'm taking the gloves off and going after the systems as they are. Join me on my mission to create a new tomorrow as I chat with industry experts, elite athletes, thought leaders and government officials about how we activate our vision for a better world. We may agree, and we may disagree, but I'm not backing down. I'm Ari Gronich and this is create a new tomorrow podcast. Welcome to a special live edition of creating a new tomorrow. I'm your host, Ari Gronich. And I have with me, this amazing writer and nutritionist, Kelly Haugh. Kelly, why don't you tell the crowd the audience a little bit about yourself? Kelly Haugh 1:25 Hi, I'm Kelly. And I'm a certified health and wellness coach. And I really specialize in helping people with stress and anxiety, got health issues and how they're all connected. I love hiking and being out in nature. Ari Gronich 1:43 Cool. So how did you get involved in the health industry and especially in the nutritional side? So I'm going back a little ways how what kind of seal video for me was really my daughter who has autism. My daughter is she just turned 14. And so it's basically been a 12 and a half 13 year Trek. With her with finding out she had leaky gut dysbiosis a lot of gut issues going on, that were affecting her behaviorally, as well, as you know, she just didn't feel very good. So how did you find out that there was a connection between her emotions and how she was feeling and acting, and gut health. So when we first learned that she had the gut health issues going on, along with her autism, you know, autism was new to us at the time, we didn't we weren't familiar, but we found out kind of quickly then that really most kids with autism have a lot of gut issues. And whether it's the chicken in the egg, you never know. But, um, so we really researched and thought out what could we do for her to help improve her health and her behavior? More than just, she, she's kind of stuck with this. So what were the benefits that you guys have seen based on changing diets and plans with her. So I'm definitely behavior she will be, you know, in a much better mood, as well as she sleeps better. And also, she has a seizure disorder. And when we did like a modified keto diet for her and added in some supplements that were really good for gut health, once her got was more in order, though seizures really started going down, which was great, because they're terrifying. Yeah, I can imagine. I can imagine. So what is it that you really want people to know about? When it comes to, you know, you as a health coach, as a person who deals with nutrition on a daily basis? What is it? What's the most important thing for people to know? Um, you know, there's many very important things. But the thing that pops out in my head, when you say the most important, I would think, you know, get off that standard American diet, because that is really bad. It is the saddest standard American and it's sad for you, it really it makes you feel sluggish and gross. And, you know, you can't think clearly brain fog, all of that, um, and so we, you know, adding in, I always like to help people add in more and more good healthy foods, and then start, you know, slowly taking away the things that aren't that good for them. But that's a really important piece. And a lot of people don't realize that, you know, that can really affect their mood, and affect, you know, how well their brains functioning. Absolutely. So, what about the standard American diet? I mean, like, think about it, you're, if you're talking to people who are eating that stuff, Hundred American diet on a regular basis, they probably don't really know what exactly about that plan and about that system is so broken. So why don't you enlighten the audience about what about that system is really broken? Right? Okay, so I would say the first thing would be like chemicals, chemical added preservatives, additives, food coloring food dyes. neurotoxins really basically for for people. And so we're talking that it's, you know, you're talking, you know, Doritos, and nacho cheese, Doritos, and, you know, pop and all of those things and, you know, really, in my opinion, a diet pop is even worse than regular pop, if you really want some pop out a little bit of regular instead of adding it even more chemicals and additives. Yeah, I would even go further and say find the soda if you're gonna have soda, that is either got cane sugar, cane sugar, or fruit, or some some keto sodas, I guess that are coming to the market that have no sugar, but they're not artificial sweeteners either. Kelly Haugh 6:18 Yeah, even stevia, stevia soda, you know, no, we want to steer away from all that. But if it's somebody who you know, they drink a six pack of coke a day, you're gonna be hard pressed to tell them, you have to stop having that completely, you're gonna have to kind of back them off, and like you say, then you can replace it a little bit with some of these other things. So um, you know, that's one thing, one aspect, right? So the chemicals, the preservatives, all those other things you're adding into your body that your body doesn't want, with the standard American diet, and of course, loads of carbs, you know, you're not getting more protein, more plants, all that type of thing. Ari Gronich 6:57 So talking about the fact that there are no essential carbs. Because I think that people think, especially based on the food pyramid that they've been indoctrinated like, yeah, that carbs are the most important thing in your diet. Right? So the fact that there's no such thing as an essential carb might be an interesting fact for young people. Sure, right. Because if you think of is that standard pyramid that we've seen for ages, right, really, that things should be tipped upside down, you know, basically, yeah, carbs in the form of leafy vegetables, and, you know, sweet potatoes and things like that. Those are fine and dandy. But yeah, lots of the white all the white stuff, the refined carbs, you know, for gluten, and then just turn straight to sugar in your body. Right. So I've talked a lot about gluten. And the fact that gluten itself is a poison, and you may not be gluten intolerance, to the level that some people are, but everybody is in, you know, it gets an inflammatory response. Absolutely. So why don't we talk a little bit about gluten and what they do grains and what they do and why the fallacy is there, that grains are so important. Right? So I love that, um, I did actually talk about that a little bit in my book about gluten. And, you know, it makes some people sad even hear that, but it's really not good for anybody, right? I mean, you know, yeah, some people are way more tolerant of it. But as it builds up in your system, it's really not good for you. It's not good for anybody, and especially because anymore, you know, most any wheat, therefore, gluten, you're gonna get a hold up is gonna be GMO. So you're gonna have the ice of fate in there, follow pesticides, you know, very bad for your whole digestive tract. Right. So most people don't really understand what gli sulfate is or what roundup does to seafood and what it means what genetically modified means really, they don't understand, necessarily, the whole nature of what genetically modified is, and what the difference between hybridization and genetically modified. So can you talk a little bit about that? Kelly Haugh 9:22 Sure. Um, so yeah, and the GMO in the seeds themselves, they genetically modify those actual seeds. And so even though they may not have already sprayed something on it, as it's grown, they haven't come back by and sprayed, it's already in there. You are not getting rid of that. It's a part of the plant. And so no amount of rinsing it is going to get rid of it. And so that gets in your body and it's very hard for your body to get rid of it. And of course, it's a neurotoxin, as well, as well as it's bad on the digestive tract and it can cause cancer. Ari Gronich 10:00 Yeah, so you know, I like to get into the history of certain things. And the history of that company is an interesting history, they were responsible for things like the Manhattan Project. But even prior to that, in the United States, they were responsible for the gas that went into the gas chambers, right. And during the Holocaust, they were responsible for the, for Agent Orange during the war and mustard gas. Right. So they were actually the chemical manufacturers. And now they pretty much own something around 90% of all the food in the entire world, the entire the entire world. And I believe that they just last year merged, were allowed to merge with Bayer, who is a pharmaceutical company, which is a pharmacy, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world. And Bayer happens to be now also it's a German company, as well. And so almost all of our pharmaceutical products that are designed to treat us when we're sick, right, are made by the same company that's making our food, which is making us sick. Right? Right. Absolutely. So audience, I want you to really kind of get this, how things connect, and how things tied tie down, because this is a really important fact, it is for people to understand is that their entire food chain is being controlled by one company that also controls a major percentage of the pharmaceutical market. Right. Right. Because they can get you with their chemicals one way or another. It's definitely a way to continue on the cycle of business. Yeah, so wasn't that illegal for for companies to conglomerate it that way? Yeah. Yeah. You know, but deep pockets. Unfortunately, this, is this true? Yeah. Yeah, this is true. So. So what would you say to the average American or even, you know, consumer worldwide, that's eating this kind of food? And may not know what it is? Or why it is? What would be the things that they can look at to tell if the food they're eating is safe? Or if it's gonna make them sick? Even if it's a long term sickness? Right? Okay. So my answer on that offhand is twofold. One would be every year, the Environmental Working Group, e wg does a dirty dozen clean 15, which is a really good list for people to go off if like I because I have a lot of clients that will say, well, we can't afford to feed our whole family organic food and things like that. So if you at least look at this list, it's helpful that way, the dozen that year that are the worst you can stay away from and be sure you get organic. And then the clean 15 is basically Yeah, there might be some residual pesticide, etc. But it's a lot less. So it's a better, better way to go. For people who aren't don't go totally organic. And the other thing would be, there's the things to look for that are mostly GMO, corn, soy, wheat, sugar beet, all here in the US at least, those are very, you know, highly GMO, right? What's the difference between sugar beets and beet, sugar beet, they actually get the get the sugar out of it, a beet is actually grown in the ground. And primarily it's, you know, gonna be the red beat or the golden beat. That's totally gotcha. So, you know, when you hear beet sugar, you don't have to be worried about juicing if you're, say a raw foodist. Right? We use a lot of beets. Yeah, beets themselves are great. Yes. So you know, don't get those too big. So it does sound confusing. Yeah, I understand that. Right. So those are a couple ways. You know, just to know like, in general, these crops tend to be bad. So especially, you know, it's back to the gluten so that was not good anyway, but if you're going to eat wheat, you want to have organic wheat, you know, and especially if you don't have the refined wheat like you have the actual just stone ground wheat. That's what Way better for you, um, then I'm not promoting it because I don't think it's great. But I'm just saying, it's easier for some people to think, well, I can't possibly do all of this. And so they just want to give up. So you want to kind of highlight, like, if you start with these things, it's going to be the most helpful to you and easy for you to do. Right. So here's my problem with with grains. And this, this is a general issue with with grains is that let's, let's say, take the scenario that we're taking a mineral supplement and trying to get the minerals right in our bodies. And then we eat a whole grain brand, because it's marketed as, as healthy or healthier alternative. Right? Right. So those grains absorb minerals, right? And then pass them through you to where you don't get to absorb the minerals, because they're very spongy. If you look at look at, look at a piece of, you know, Crumb Cake, any of those kinds of things. They're kind of spongy cakes, breads, pastas, spongy, spongy, absorbs it's absorbent, right? Right, we can, we can all kind of get with that. And so if you're taking a mineral supplement, while you are also eating breads, and glutens, and carbs, and grains, you're literally flushing down all the money that you're putting into those mineral supplements. You're flushing that down the toilet. Right? Right. Yeah. So this is just one of the reasons why, you know, if you're, if you have mineral deficiencies of any kind, like iron, and you're anemic, if you know you have insulin issues, if you have, those are all because of mineral deficiencies. And so eating the bread doesn't necessarily equal a good, healthy, right response to the other things that you might be doing. It actually might harm that response, even if you're not getting a massive inflammatory response where you recognize it. Correct? Yeah, I agree. And especially to with the, if you're saying somebody who has a blood sugar issue or an insulin issue, they really, they shouldn't be eating bread anyway. You know, that's not that's very counterproductive. Right. So, you know, on many levels, yeah. Right. So, you know, give it give a few recommendations on what it is that you'd like to see happen within the systems. Like, if you're talking to a government employee right now, which I love talking to government employees that have control over whether they're about to be able to put more chemicals in our environment. Our last slide? Yeah, right. So I love talking to the government officials. But let's say we're talking to some government officials right now. And we're giving them some solutions to the ills of bad health and the systems of agriculture that we're going through currently, right? What are some solutions that you would suggest? why that's a big one, isn't it? Absolutely. Unknown Speaker 18:31 I know. Ari Gronich 18:33 What I don't know is if they're gonna listen in, it does depend on right. Who is it? What What is their lobby toward? What's their propensity? Unknown Speaker 18:45 But what Kelly Haugh 18:46 what do I think could be done? I mean, definitely don't let anything else get added. That is bad for us. Absolutely. And I don't know, because it is such a deep pocket issue, if you're gonna get that reversed on the whole GMOs and the whole seeds and everything like that. That's tough. But maybe they could be touting organic foods, maybe they could be that could even be part of, if not part of the new food pyramid, even if it could just be they could, at least as a public service message, talk about chemicals in the food and you know, eating organic or things like that. That wouldn't be that hard for them to do. But I don't know that they have a slant to that. Ari Gronich 19:32 Right. So I'm an idealist. So I believe that anything is possible. Sure. As long as enough people force it to become possible. Right, right. And so the things that I'm looking at being possible, for instance, let's say is hydroponic gardens. Oh, yeah. local communities. Absolutely. Because you can control what is put in. You don't need the pesticides right. Because it's a controlled environment, you can grow it year round. You put it into farmer's markets, you put it into high schools, you put it into elementary schools. And now all of a sudden you have free labor because you're teaching the kids how to grow food. Right? Right. So this is just one of many possible solutions. If you're in a big city, there are no skyscraper gardens. Oh, yeah. Which is really exciting that feat that can feed an entire city, what it needs because you can create, you know, different levels with different kinds of foods, a lot of variety. And it's all Hydro and aeroponic. This is a solution to big cities. My favorite. I think my favorite one is in parks, public parks. There's land, right, right. So every other tree instead of being an oak tree, or a pine tree, which really doesn't do a lot for our health, right. Or for our food supply. Apple Tree, orange tree face, you know, different trees inside a park. That's your real fast food now. Unknown Speaker 21:08 Yeah, right. Yeah, you could pick Ari Gronich 21:09 the fruit off the tree. You know, if you're homeless, you have plenty of food to eat. Right. So problem isn't solved the homeless issue, but now, at least gives them some food. Right? You can. I was thinking like, I want to create a mass movement of people throwing berry seeds all over the freeways. You know, the size of the freeways cover new fruit? Yeah, why wouldn't that be cool? You know, a couple of handfuls of berries. And you go on your way. All nicely energized. Yeah. Yeah, there are so many solutions. And yeah, Kelly Haugh 21:52 it's not like that couldn't happen. Right. It's not like this couldn't be a thing. Ari Gronich 21:57 Right. It's not like it would be very difficult. It would cost a lot of money. I'm talking to you, governors, Senators, government officials. If you're in charge you're being talked to right now. Yeah. All right. Well, wait. Yeah. Kelly Haugh 22:13 I mean, yeah, like you say, it's not gonna take that much. It's certainly not that much money. Definitely not even labor. I mean, and you could probably get the whole community to go out and do the actual planting and everything Ari Gronich 22:26 right. And especially if you're feeding that look at it from a different angle. you're feeding the community in which you're living in. Right, right. So it's not being transported as much. Yeah. Kelly Haugh 22:40 That's really good. Ari Gronich 22:40 Right. So we're singing gas, we're saving energy and electricity and other kinds of units of things that we wouldn't normally be wasting. Right, right. Yeah. So what else can we do? Just let's give them solutions to the issues because most people know that there's an issue, even if they don't know what that issue is, right. I think they know that there's an issue. Right? That's our health with the world, you know, with our food with with those things. Government, you know, if you wanted to save money, you could probably stop subsidizing food that's unhealthy. Because most people, I don't think people realize that they're being fed food, cheap food, that is actually a lot more expensive than some of the other food that you could be eating here. Right. But it's cheap in the stores, because your tax dollars are being taken for them. Absolutely. I Kelly Haugh 23:41 think people don't know that at all. Ari Gronich 23:43 So they don't know about that. You're being Kelly Haugh 23:46 lightened, you're, you're paying for it one way or another. And definitely at the end, you're paying for it with bad health. Absolutely, yeah. Which, of course, is gonna cost you a lot more in the long run. Ari Gronich 23:59 Absolutely. So if I were to take a step back now, and I'm just going to spotlight on you and your background, what you've been able to do, and what your message really is two people, what would what would you say? Well, so Kelly Haugh 24:16 I mean, my main message I not to give people hope, and I'm out to help people know that there is something more they can do. I always want people to be asking, what else can I do? Because that and throughout my life's journey and the things I've been through, which has been many very major things that most people might go through one but I've been through like for what else can I do? That question literally saved my life and the life of my daughter, figuring out what else can I do and not just take that blanket? Here's all there is? You can't You can't accept that as the answer. So if you have an issue, an underlying health issue, autoimmune issue, chronic inflammation, chronic stress, anxiety, get issues, any of that it doesn't matter what your particular issue is. There's always something different, better and more that can be done. Absolutely, Ari Gronich 25:15 absolutely. So let's let's drill by symptoms if you're experiencing, if you're experiencing foggy brain, bloating, gas, crazy heat, and then cool, your temperatures deregulated. If you're experiencing symptoms of diabetes, insulin resistant, heart disease, chronic pain, YouTube could be affected by the sad diet. Kelly Haugh 25:48 It's true. Ari Gronich 25:53 Let's talk about like brain fog and things like that. I've been told recently that they're trying to reclassify Alzheimer's and dementia as type three diabetes a little bit because this is affecting. My grandmother had Alzheimer's, she didn't know who I was for the last I don't know, maybe almost 10 years of rice. Yeah. couldn't speak English anymore. She can only speak Spanish. I mean, she had no idea who she was, other than the 16 year old and before girl. So it's very personal for me. You know, how, how would you suggest somebody who's experiencing dementia and Alzheimer's and brain fog? In general, they're going to work and they're gone? What am I supposed to be doing to her? You know, what would you suggest as a change to their, to their plan that they can do? Right mmediately to start feeling different and better. Kelly Haugh 26:52 So I'm on the lighter note of brain fog versus dementia, Alzheimer's, all of those types of things, because there's a heavy, heavier issue, although the same types of things absolutely affect it. But somebody's just experiencing brain fog, you know, something they could do would be number one, cut out sugar. And then number two, cut out the refined carbs that turned straight to sugar in your body, because that all leads to brain fog. Another thing is good, you know, having enough good healthy bacteria in your gut versus unhealthy bacteria? Because that's dysbiosis when you have too much bad bacteria. So adding in better. How did they do that? How did they do that? They can do it by particular strains of probiotics with prebiotics with them, as well as fermented foods which have pre and probiotic foods in them like kimchi and sauerkraut. Kimchi sauerkraut, yep. All right. Well, count kombucha. There's, there's a variety of a variety. And I teach fermented foods classes that people can make them at home on their own and realize it's not that hard to do, which is really cool. But those also eating, you know, a lot of the good plants and getting a big variety, because you're getting some pre and probiotics in that way. And especially if it's organic, and you don't want to wash the crap out of that organic food. You actually want some of that good soil on there, because it's actually good for you. And you're adding in good bacteria that way. Ari Gronich 28:28 Yeah. Remember when you were a kid and used to have mud pies in the mud pies were tasted like dirt? Because it was actual mud? Kelly Haugh 28:35 Because it was dirt. Yeah, it Ari Gronich 28:36 was good for you that actually your immune system really well. strength. Absolutely. Right. Yeah, this whole thing. This whole thing about being anti bacteria, anti virus is a bad word these days, but anti bacteria anti virus. These are things that we weren't fungus creating penicillin. Right? It was really good for you, you know, magic mushrooms, psilocybin that helps people with PTSD with emotional trauma release with all kinds of, you know, health issues, right. So this is something that we've been taught to avoid. Right. But we love mushrooms in our in our Kelly Haugh 29:25 mushroom mask. Right, exactly. Ari Gronich 29:26 So it's not avoid these things. It's it's actually these are the things that help keep us healthy that they've been telling us the system has been telling us we need joy. Kelly Haugh 29:38 Right? Right. Yeah, when everything is just so sterile and you have your air actually getting rid of your good bacteria as well then you don't want to do that. Ari Gronich 29:48 Right. Even though I was told recently. mouthwash. It's got that high alcohol content in the mouthwash. It'll kill all the bacteria in the back of your mouth. Right now. That good bacteria that's in the back of your mouth. Is the stuff helping to keep you from getting heart disease? Kelly Haugh 30:08 Right? Yes. And it also, that is actually what also keeps you from getting actually sick. You know, you want all the good bacteria. There. Yeah, when I wiped Ari Gronich 30:19 it out, right, so then how can we get the good bacteria and get clean smelling breath instead of garlicky, oniony Kelly Haugh 30:28 mushroomy? Well, you know, minty is fine, you just don't want to have the alcohol base. And yet fluoride isn't good for you either. Just you know, dance baking soda, you can use a little essential oil, you know, you're actually getting your mouth clean, but not wiping out your little activated charcoal. charcoal, right? MCT oil is great. It's I you know, but in a good way, anti bacterial, fungal, viral, all of that. But it's not going to kill off all your good stuff. So Ari Gronich 30:58 yeah, these are these are really amazing gems, I just want the audience to really get the grasp of what they're getting here. Because really, we're getting into the nitty gritties of food choices and lifestyle choices that people can can make. Absolutely in order to really alter their health. Because, you know, I know for me and my story, I went so many years, trying so many things. And having Dr. Google one search after another Right, right. Yeah. And so many people are doing the same thing. Absolutely. They're listening to Dr. Google who changes, you know, tune every, like week or two. Yeah, Kelly Haugh 31:47 absolutely. Right. And one doctor, Google is way over here. And one is way over here. And so then it leaves the average person not knowing what am I supposed to believe? And part of my whole thing is I've waited through all this shit, so you don't have to? Ari Gronich 32:04 Well, thank you very much. Yeah, I appreciate you doing that. wasn't what I was gonna do. Not a fan of wading through what I what I am a fan of is getting to the nitty gritty of this stuff. You know, like, what's a really good argument for eating grass fed organic beef and, and meats in general, rather than eating? The standard meat diet? Yeah, that's right. And just one of those based on what you're saying is the antibiotics that they're giving the cows are then going into us killing our good bacteria. Absolutely. Right. So talk a little bit about how that Kelly Haugh 32:53 how that wreaks havoc, it wreaks havoc on your whole digestive system and your gut health. Again, you want all the good bacteria, you can have just well shown that bad bacteria. Yeah, the cows literally, that are the feedlot, they actually have a thing right in your ear, and it's an injectable antibiotic that they get this slow dose of the entire time they're there. Ari Gronich 33:18 people realize that so it's basically like, diabetics, insulin Kelly Haugh 33:23 pump, that it's an A, and A biotic pump in their air that they get the whole time that they're there. And so, you know, even if he might have been out on a pasture, you know, for part of his life, he's now been moved here and he's here a good bit of time. Just taking in all these antibiotics. Now they're gonna, you know, slaughter him and now you're you are definitely ingesting those antibiotics, Ari Gronich 33:49 right. So that will say you are what you eat is not quite true. Because you're not a cow. But you will eat one if you eat one. Kelly Haugh 33:59 Yeah, it is you are what you eat, but you are what you are eating, ate as well. Eating. Your plants are sitting, right either way you are getting whatever that is as well. And it's not just, oh, well, that's fine. It was in him. It doesn't matter. No, you're literally taking that in and now you are consuming that. Yeah. So I was Ari Gronich 34:23 listening to a paleontologist once and we were at a Dinosaur Park. And I think it was my son's birthday. And somebody asked a question about the dinosaurs that are, you know, meat eaters versus those that are vegetarian and, you know, and the guy said, well, the dinosaur who eats the vegetarian gets all the nutrients of the vegetarian. You know, dinosaur, because they're, they're getting what that dinosaur ate, right? Yeah. So even if they never eaten Plant, they're getting all the plant nutrients through through the meat that was really fascinating because a lot of people, you know, especially in this culture that we've been moving towards, which is vegan vegetarian, which I don't think is is a bad thing in and of itself, right? It's a necessary thing, because we absolutely never ate the amount of meat that we're eating as a nation daily, if I eat meat a couple times a week, that's a good amount that's kind of more on par. Right, right with our traditional diet. So we're not supposed to be eating three meals a day of meat. But if we're eating meat that's not been raised on a pasture eating grass, but has been raised in a feed water, one of these places where they got the antibiotics, you're literally killing your gut, oh, which is killing your brain, right? Kill your brain to kill your gut? Kelly Haugh 36:00 Well, because your good gut bacteria absolutely sense. And you'll see your brain all day long, you know, got two brain brain to gut but more got two brain. And so you know, a lot of people don't know about that more and more people have at least heard of it, but highly important. And like what you said earlier about the dementia and everything. When we are consuming the chemicals, lots of gluten, all of that affects your brain. And all the other, you know, the chemicals are very neurotoxic, very bad to the brain. Ari Gronich 36:35 Yeah, absolutely. That is that is for sure. So neurotoxins, let me let me just kind of get to that, because we talked about fluoride when we were talking about toothpaste, and I just want you know, the history of fluoride in water supply. Because in water supply, they know absolutely 100% that it does nothing for teeth, and only worse for teeth if it's directly applied. And even that is questionable as far as the form of fluoride that's used, right. But fly was used originally by Hitler's you know, Army in order to control the soldiers. Because the soldiers would be a lot more suggestible to their orders, when their neurotoxin level was lowered, basically made their cognitive function and critical thinking skills drop and diminish so that they'd be more easily considered cheap. Yeah, I know, that's not a necessarily nice word. But it's the word that that it can be heard, right? As she right. So I don't know if you've noticed this, but I've noticed it the amount of decline in cognitive function. It's horrible critical thinking common sense. And the ability of a nation or world to be heard it. Right. We're seeing that a little bit loudly. Oh, yeah. We're not gonna talk about why you saw what it was. Cause 2020 sounds like an interesting experiment in herd mentality, her herd immunity herd mentality herd, being herded into our stables so to speak, right. So if you were wondering what that might be, it could be the fluoride in your water. It could be certainly contribute, again, be the pesticides in your food, it could be all of these things that can contribute to cognitive decline. Absolutely. Have you noticed cognitive decline in your friends and family? Kelly Haugh 38:52 At least a little bit. Ari Gronich 38:55 Have you noticed it? Kelly Haugh 38:56 I'd say in general, yeah. The population at large? Yes. I know what you're saying. Ari Gronich 39:01 Yeah. Did you know that in the late 1800s, early 1900s, a fifth grader going to school is learning about the same material, as we are learning in freshman year of college right now. Kelly Haugh 39:21 That's crazy. Ari Gronich 39:24 That's really odd. Is that a little odd? I think it's all absolutely. Yeah, we have declined so much in our cognitive function, that we can't even they're not even teaching us. And I think part of it is that we like our children to be children. Kelly Haugh 39:42 Well, yeah. Ari Gronich 39:45 I'm not sure. I'm not sure if that was how nature intended to Kelly Haugh 39:49 right. Ari Gronich 39:50 For children to be children for so long for so long. Yeah. You know, understand Kelly Haugh 39:55 that, um, you know, also in the 1800s, right. They didn't have that. distractions. I mean, just everywhere distractions. Ari Gronich 40:03 This is true this that the other goes fast roll this. Kelly Haugh 40:08 I mean, people are just like, go, go go. And I do think that's part of it too is just, um, I get the kid part, which is a little different, but still just the stress level that everybody's under also affects the brain immensely. Ari Gronich 40:22 Yeah, I was I was watching it, or I was reading a book to my son, I read him these books called the value books. And they all have a different value and then a historical character that emulated that value. Okay, so we just did understanding with Margaret Mead. Okay, cool. And Marguerite, if you don't know, she was a famous anthropologist who went to different islands, she was the first anthropologist to actually go to where the people are that she was studying and live with them amongst them. So before that, you know, anthropologists would study in books, right? They never went out to the locations of studies, she went to the location. So she went to the Samoan islands. And on the small island, she found that they raised their kids a very certain way, by the time they were six, they were already starting to learn how to cook and take care of the younger siblings, and do all that they still have their playtime, but they had a lot of responsibility. By the time they were 13. They were basically able to take care of an entire family. And, you know, look at getting married, they were able to choose their partner, their wife, or or husband. And they found that as adults, they were really, really happy. And then she went to another community and the kids had no responsibility. They were just able to play all day long all the time. Right? No, no responsibility, but they didn't learn how to live. As adults. We call it we call this now adulting adulting. This is this is a term we needed to use adults. Yes. Yeah. So they found that those people as adults were miserable, angry, not having fun, they didn't like each other, their marriages were arranged. Right? Right, they didn't have the choice of who they would marry, they had to pay a humungous fee for that wife, you know, to the family. So they were in debt the whole time. I mean, they had all these different things that kept them from being happy. But it was interesting to me to learn how to Samoans are so happy because they knew how to take care of each other. So all the responsibilities did not cause them stress, because they have the they have the tools, they all knew how to do it, and they could all share in it, they know how to do it, they could share it, it they have the tools, and nothing could come as a surprise. Really, that would stress them out as much because they had already experienced all those things. Kelly Haugh 43:11 Right? really fascinating. To me, very, Ari Gronich 43:14 yeah, I just thought I'd bring that up in case anybody was thinking that our kids are getting, you know, a little too complacent with their iPads and YouTubes and stuff like that. Not quite learning about how to learn but learning how to ask Siri how to learn. Kelly Haugh 43:34 Yeah, absolutely. Ari Gronich 43:36 Just in case anybody ever, ever, you know, thought about that? I know, when I was a kid, we used to go out to the fields and pick berries every now and then it wasn't a regular thing. But during berry season, we'd go out and pick a bucket full and we get to keep you know, half of what we picked. You know, we had we had jobs early but nowadays they have they have these iPads. And now my son is doing a YouTube. Oh boy. Gabriel. Gabriel Gronich. Is his YouTube channel. Go subscribe. He's collecting silver and, and has five businesses. Nice. Nice. Great, pretty nice, you know? Yeah, yeah, he was going to school. And the teacher asked him how they were feeling how he was feeling. He said angry. The teacher said Why are you angry? He said, I have five businesses and nothing you're teaching me is going to help me with one of them. That is a six year old worth watching. Right now. Kelly Haugh 44:45 kidding. He's on fire. Ari Gronich 44:46 He is gonna do it. He is gonna he's gonna rule the world one day, which is really cool for me because I get to watch and and hopefully be a good support. Right. Yes, it gets a feed him well. So he has cognitive function, right? He's had no vaccines. Very good. I know there's a lot of controversy about vaccines. I'm not completely against them as a concept, but I think that they were really designed more to emulate. Home, you homeopathics. And they kind of lost their way when they stopped putting them in little sugar pellets and started putting them in formaldehyde Mercury, and yeah, there might be other stuff, right? Yeah, absolutely. So you know, if you're, if you're a vaccinating person, and you would say, Oh, he's an anti vaxxer. Yes. Just so you know, but there's a reason why, you know, you know, all the reasons why you would never want your kids to be vaccinated with the current schedule, and the current way of producing the vaccines. Just caveat, Well, number one. Kelly Haugh 46:01 That's a big subject for me. Um, I would first just say, for people who are gung ho on vaccines, you absolutely need to spread them out. Absolutely. Even even if you're going to do them, no matter what, no matter what anybody says, that's fine. But you should at least spread them out. So your child isn't overloaded with a whole bunch of chemicals all at once. It's very bad for the body. My daughter, actually, we are, I don't think you knew this part. But we're pretty well convinced that she has autism, because of her vaccines. She was tracking on normally till six months. And then she had five vaccines at once, which we were told was totally fine, totally normal. And it's at the time, no longer, you know, we believed we, the doctors know what they're doing. They're trained, they're well trained. All of that. Now I say, you have to ask, Is there something different, better and more, but, um, she was never the same after that. And so basically, she had an underlining, you know, issue going on, we didn't know about an immune issue. You put all that in a little baby, and the body goes berserk, basically, because, you know, it's trying to get rid of that attack it. And so I'm, I kind of like you all say, Well, I'm not an anti vaxxer. But you have to be very, on your own, you need to find out all about every bit of information you can about it. And does your kid really need it? And absolutely, no matter what I want people to know they need to spread those apart one vaccine at a time. That's it. Because if there's any issue going on underlying and you don't know about it, you're gonna know about it way too soon. Ari Gronich 47:52 And you're gonna find out if you do it one at a time, which one caused it? Kelly Haugh 47:58 Absolutely, then you would know. Yeah. The other thing is, if you don't mind me just putting this in here, because we're talking about this. I want people to know this because people don't know this at all. So I'm in about first grade, then they wanted to get my daughter the MMR booster. Because, you know, school at school. We said absolutely not. She'll never have another vaccine ever. But we were working with this great doctor in California at the time. And he said, Oh, all we need to do is a simple blood test, a titers test, very simple, not much blood at all. So he checked her titers levels for that. She was actually at 4,400% higher than what she should be. So had we gone ahead and gone along with, let's give her this MMR booster would have been even more detrimental to her health. But he said only 5% of kids actually need that booster that when they are tested actually need it. 95 don't, but they just give it to everybody. Which to me is just pathetic. Right? We're gonna give it to 95% of kids who don't even need it. Ari Gronich 49:12 It's not right. It's kind of like quarantining 95% of the population. I wouldn't know anything about that. But that Sounds Sounds like a similar, you know, these these things are really all about one, you know, one size fits all, so to speak solutions. And as we know, we are all snowflakes. And I don't mean that in the detrimental, you know, political way of calling people snowflakes. I mean, we are all unique. We are very individual and what's good for me is not necessarily good for you, and definitely not at the same time. Yeah, Kelly Haugh 49:58 right. Everyone's body is different. Everyone's physiology is different. You know, there's so many factors, everything. It's all multifactorial. And so you have to consider all of that you can't just blanket everybody into the same thing. It doesn't. Well, you can do it, but it doesn't turn out good, Ari Gronich 50:16 right? But if we were to blanket people into the same thing, what would we do? We would probably want to vaccinate everybody, because then we'd have everybody on the same playing field. Right? Right. What happens when somebody is is not? There, their body can handle the same thing as somebody else's. We all know the person who could eat 50,000 McDonald's hamburgers and stay skinny. Right? And somebody else drives by McDonald's, and we'll get there just by driving. Right, you know, so yeah, this is like, it's a discussion to help get everybody on the same pages. But it's the same pages, your page, absolutely your individual page, not the same page that everybody else is on the same page? You need to be on yourself, right? Absolutely. Kelly Haugh 51:16 Yeah. Because everyone is different. Every physiology is different. Every You know, my mind works different than yours might get works different than yours. You know, everything is different. Because and so you can't treat the snowflakes the same. You can't treat Ari Gronich 51:36 politics as well as food. Medicine. Yeah. Right. Yeah. But how do we get the the, you know, how do we get that to be a system it system by usable thing? Because we all know that everybody needs to systemize everything. Right? So how do we get that to be a systemized double thing? Especially if doctors aren't allowed? You know, really, to meet with you for more than seven minutes? Oh, Kelly Haugh 52:09 my gosh, right. Ari Gronich 52:10 How long does it take for you to do an assessment as a nutritionist? Kelly Haugh 52:14 I mean, it would depend on the person what they've got going on, on average, 45 minutes an hour, you know, as a first, you know, Ari Gronich 52:22 if somebody's going on? Kelly Haugh 52:24 Yeah. I mean, I could, if you would first address the few things going on. And then you would need to revisit and, you know, address more if somebody has a lot of things going on. So you could spend hour and a half, two hours. I mean, it could end up being three or four hours. I mean, you know, to really get in depth and see what's really going on, Ari Gronich 52:45 right? is that happening? Not in most cases, is your doctor taking an hour to two hours to really find out what's going on. And I don't want this to be like I'm bashing doctors, because frankly, I think doctors are heroes that really deserve a lot of metals for their courage, because they've decided to go into a system that literally threatens them if they don't do medicine, the way of the insurance. Companies Yeah, and, you know, there's this moral hazard, that world trauma, moral hazard that doctors are going through, because they are they're looking at at the world going, I I just want people to be healthy, I want to I want to treat and take care of people, right? And the system is not letting me do that. So, you know, I always go back to the old medicine man, medicine woman, and the doctors in the olden days, they would do these things. They're unheard of called house calls. They would show up at your house, right? They would spend time watching you live, sometimes a week. And then they get an idea of what it was in your environment in your lifestyle in what you were doing that was causing the problem. And eventually, they would be able to then solve that problem. Right? Absolutely. But today is settle you in so you out. And they have a lot of information and they're trained well, but they don't have all the information and they aren't trained on everything because they're trained in their realm, which is primarily pharmaceuticals, etc. Right? And so, you know, they absolutely have a very important job and they they are heroes and do so many great things but they have their own realm. And then there's a lot more to health and wellness that they just don't care. However, right? So you wouldn't want to go to a foot doctor, for instance, if you had a brain tumor. And you don't want to go to a doctor, if you have an issue with nutrition, just like you wouldn't go to a doctor for pain, because of a weakness or an accident, who would only be able to give you? medication? Right, right, yeah, versus going to a therapist, or some sort of chiropractor, physical therapist, massage therapist, personal trainer, who actually deals with injuries and why they occur, right. So just just kind of kick to note, we've started doing things backwards, right, we're not doing things the right direction, because we're looking for this fast, you know, fast Hill solution versus a lifestyle solution versus a way of living solution, right. And by doing that, what's happened is, it takes a really long time to lose weight now, because you're literally getting big, and then small and big and small, and the big and then small. And then Big and then big. And every time you get big, you get a little bit bigger. And every time you get small, it's a little less small. Right? Right. And it takes a really long time. Because you go from fast, pill to fast Delta fast kills fascination fast solution, versus just taking a look at gets. Let's get rid of the fads. Let's get rid of the concepts. Let's just go back to what was working for the last couple hundred thousand years. Right? Yeah. Or if you're religious the last 2000 years, right. 6000 years, right. What was working then is probably going to work better for our system and what wasn't? What isn't working now? Probably isn't going to work better in the future, like pesticides and processed foods. Those things are not our bodies are not ready for that. Yeah. Right. Right. Kelly Haugh 57:16 You can you can detoxify and get rid of so much, but only so much, right? And if you're constantly putting more and more in and on your body. Yeah, you're not you're not able to detox all of that and get rid of it. Ari Gronich 57:30 Yeah, let's talk about makeup and lotions and haircare products and cosmetics as well and how they play a role in ill health, inflammation, etc. Right. So those are follow up again, neurotoxins, they lates all kinds of bad chemicals. Many of them like the average woman puts 175 or something chemicals on in and on her body every single day, between all her makeup and lotions and you know everything and there's lots of natural natural alternatives out there. You know, there's several you can make your own with different essential oils, things like that. Or, you know, there's readily available courses, or outsource like that you can find lots of more natural products. Yeah, we have a friend who has naked beauty. Yeah, absolutely. Right. Yeah. Naked beauty and all that Kelly Haugh 58:28 good stuff. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Ari Gronich 58:30 So you know, these are the things that we we recommend. I'm gonna we're gonna end this episode, because I think it's been a really great episode so far. Thank you, I'd like to end it on a good note. So So give the audience three things that they aren't, that's actionable, doable, easily available, ready for them that they can do right now. So that they can create a new tomorrow today for their own health and vitality. Kelly Haugh 59:03 Okay, so number one I go with, if you're not taking a good pre and probiotic do that, it can either be in the pill form a good one, or you can go out and get you a bag of sauerkraut if you don't want to make any kombucha, kimchi, any of those. So in any realm of that to get your good gut bacteria going better. Number two would be that cutting off or down on the sugar, refined carbs because that's going to help number one, those feed the bad gut bacteria. So you're feeding having a big feeding frenzy in there, and they squelching down the good. So those kind of go together but they're different. So cutting out that sugar and refined carbs, really important. And the other thing it's hard to narrow it to three but stress is a huge cause of massive amounts of illness for people. So, that chronic stress piece, do something to lessen your stress, okay? So whether that's you're going to meditate even five minutes, you're going to just put on music you love and listen to it. You're going to you're feeling you know, totally stressed out, you're going to look in your environment, you're going to look around to see something pretty see something enjoyable. What do you what do you feel? Can you feel something that can distract you and calm you down? You know, you want to use the senses and engage the senses to get calm down a little bit. So those are a few just, you know, easy things people can do to add in, that will actually make a big difference. Ari Gronich 1:00:40 Awesome. Thank you so much for being here, Kelly. And you have a new book? Kelly Haugh 1:00:45 I do. I have a new book out, I'm super excited about it. Mind, your gut, Ari Gronich 1:00:52 your gut.

Ari Gronich 1:01:01 Yes, yes, give it a little bit about what this book is about, and what they'll what people will get from from reading it. And then how they can go about finding it and finding you if they want to learn more. Kelly Haugh 1:01:13 Okay, cool. Thank you very much. Um, so you know, it's minding your gut powering up your immune system, your stress, resilience, and your mental wellness through your gut brain. So that whole gut brain piece, which is very important, I talked about the problem, the problem with chronic stress, anxiety, depression, I talk a little bit about science in the book.

Dinosaur Adventure. Sorry, I couldn't help myself. We discuss the government support for the sector. Reopening plans, audience engagement, and the positive impact of reopening with brand new attractions.

Thank you so much for coming in. As you know, these podcasts start off with a little icebreaker question. So I have prepared some new ones for you today that you have not been able to prepare for. So have you ever met any of your idols?Adam Goymour:Have I ever met any of my idols? No, however, during the summer periods we've had a couple of celebrities visit us. Jimmy Doherty from Jimmy's Farm.Kelly Molson:Great.Adam Goymour:He came with his family, he spent the whole day here. I met him, we had a few photos. We also collaborate with our membership schemes and it was really a good occasion because we had the chance to have a chat, talk about business, just talk about life really. He asked for my number to ... sounds like a date really doesn't it?Kelly Molson:It does a little bit, yeah.Adam Goymour:So we could carry on that chat that we had, which was really good. The unannounced one we had was Tom Hardy himself, who came to the park, which was unexpected. I think a lot of guys were unsure if it was him or not. We had one of our bloggers in the park who did talk to me and say, "I think he's on the park." But she couldn't really confirm that or not. But learn to behold, until he was then leaving, to be only then know that he was on the park, but thankfully the blogger had some pictures taken off him and we could just re-share that.Kelly Molson:Brilliant.Adam Goymour:I didn't get the chance ... well, I haven't had the chance as yet in my life to meet my idol. But I think those are two significant people that were quite nice to have at the park.Kelly Molson:Are you a little bit disappointed that you didn't get Tom Hardy's number?Adam Goymour:Absolutely, that would be a cool collab, if I could get him to do a dinosaur video or one of those things he did on CBeebies Storytime, that would have been amazing.Kelly Molson:There you go. You've got a goal. You've got a goal for next time, right? That is brilliant. I love that, great story.Kelly Molson:Okay. I don't know that we're going to be able to beat those answers, but what is your favorite meal to cook and why?Adam Goymour:I love Italian food, but something I do cook because I rarely have a lot of time, being in a business, being quite active, having a few hobbies, I have a dog as well, I'm rarely at home for that long. So something I cook is quick and easy using Jamie Oliver's books, it's salmon fillets, and then I have gnocchi, some broccoli, and it takes 15, 20 minutes. So that's probably my go-to meal.Kelly Molson:Perfect. Nutritious and healthy as well, Adam.Adam Goymour:Absolutely.Kelly Molson:Okay. If you could watch only one film for the rest of your life, what would it be?Adam Goymour:Easy question.Kelly Molson:Oh?Adam Goymour:Jurassic Park, the original.Kelly Molson:I wasn't expecting anything less than that.Adam Goymour:Yeah, it's a keen favorite. My mum and I always used to watch it, and we used to have coloring books when I was four or five years old that we always used to do together. It was a film I loved, so yeah.Kelly Molson:And definitely the original as well, right? It was the best.Adam Goymour:Yeah, it was.Kelly Molson:Okay. So I know that you've listened to a few of these podcasts, so you might have already prepared for the last icebreaker question that I always ask. Tell me something that's true, that almost nobody agrees with you on. So your unpopular opinion.Adam Goymour:Yeah, I love that Greg James show. Rugby is better than football.Kelly Molson:Okay. See I always wonder what people are going to comment on, on Twitter, when we put stuff like this out. But I think that will be probably quite 50, 50.Adam Goymour:Well, football's a global sport, isn't it? Rugby's getting there. I think for all of the community values that rugby brings and the atmosphere you see at a rugby club. I've played it since I was about nine years old and joined my local club, Diss, when I was living in Banham in Norfolk, from about from the age of 16, I think it was. I've played there ever since, and it's been a fantastic environment to make friends, and to take myself away from the working environment, and keep myself fit and active really.Kelly Molson:Is that one of your hobbies still today, playing rugby?Adam Goymour:Yeah. I don't play it perhaps as regularly as I used to now, but I still play it fairly regularly.Kelly Molson:It's a real complete contrast to your working day isn't it, being on the rugby field?Adam Goymour:Yeah, it's still in that team environment. I love the team environment, I feed off it. So yeah, it's something where I've captained and I've been a part of the senior squad, so I do enjoy being in that leadership role. So that's another reason why I love it.Kelly Molson:Great, thank you for sharing. I hope Greg James does listen to this podcast one day and knows that I've still stolen this from him, but with the greatest intention because I'm a big fan. Thanks, Greg.Kelly Molson:Adam, I really want to ... there are loads of things that I want to talk to you about today and with a lot of these podcast interviews where we're talking about the future, I have to go back, because we can't not talk about what's just happened and what we're still dealing with. So I want to ask you a little bit first about how lockdown has been for you.Kelly Molson:What I saw was how very open, and authentic, and very quite vulnerable you were throughout it actually, in terms of the press reports and the news stories that we saw. I think that's really admirable, and it's something that I really admire you for. I just wanted to get a feel for how you felt and what you were going through?Adam Goymour:I think I can start off by saying it was a rollercoaster of emotions, particularly as an owner/operator in the sector. I furloughed myself after the initial onslaught of working through an unexpected closedown, and the implications of it. It was a balancing act, you balance out the practicality and emotions of closing down your business, having a hundred-plus staff that you're not able to offer work to, and finding yourself, after I furloughed myself, with time on my hands, which I never have had before. As I've been ingrained in a family business since I was a child, and it was the first real opportunity in a family business to stop, take a step back, and look at it from a different perspective.Adam Goymour:On a personal side, I was excising my dog Millie quite a lot, spent time with my girlfriend, Rosie, reading, catching up with films, phoning friends that I've not spoken to for a long time because I've just been so busy with work. Apart from that, however, it gave me a good deal of valuable thinking and planning time. But also as the prospect of reopening loomed, there was a huge amount of planning and preparation to do for Roarr! that was eventually closed for 105 days. Zoom meetings were essential to work with managers remotely prior to returning to work at Roarr! Also.Adam Goymour:So yeah, heck and all it went very quickly and it was surprising. There was calls to BALPPA, so the British Association of Leisure, Piers, Parks, and Attractions, and also NFAN, National Farm Attractions Network. They held some twice weekly, some of them were once weekly. There's also support from the Council, Norfolk Chamber of Commerce, and I was the representative, and that was obviously after I was furloughed, and I was the representative for the park.Adam Goymour:So, I was being pulled left, right and center, and trying to keep everything together as well as understanding it myself in the limited time that I had. So yeah, it was full-on really. It was going from, okay, this has just happened, to having time to myself which I've never had before, to then being pulled to left, right, and center to get things sorted. But I love a challenge, I'm a young man, I'm 32, nearly 33, and I enjoy the challenge and it's all about survival, but also the grace time as well. So it's really important, I want to come out of this growing and all the better businesses do in the tough times. So that's what I want us to accomplish.Kelly Molson:It actually sounds incredibly positive, Adam. I mean, I can completely appreciate how challenging the time was, running my own business myself on a much smaller scale than yours. I know the kind of challenges that we had in terms of team and making sure that we had enough revenue, and work, and things like that. But actually, it sounds to me from what you've just said, that it gave you quite a lot of time to reflect on where the business was, and maybe positive changes that you could make when you came back.Adam Goymour:Yeah, it certainly forced a lot of changes perhaps earlier than we had planned to because of the situation, which I love change. I'm a driver with change for the better, not for the sake of change. I've enjoyed that as another challenge really. That's the opportunity it's given, and I think in life you can look at things two ways can't you? You can either look at it and think poor old me, or you could look at it and think, "Are we going to nail this or what?" It's then given the motivation to the leadership team around me to drive it forward.Kelly Molson:Yeah, I love that. That really came across in some of the things that you were doing whilst you were locked down as well. Because one of the things that I noticed was how brilliantly you were engaging with your audience. Even if your audience couldn't come to the venue, you did a lot of things. Like there's a brilliant activity pack that you put together, for kids obviously, but I downloaded it. I mean, look at the backgrounds that you've got, your marketing team went into overdrive a little bit and it was really super positive. What was the response like from your customers during that time?Adam Goymour:Yeah, well firstly, with the marketing team, we didn't furlough them because they're our sales team, they're our communication team externally, and it's a backward step if you furlough those guys. They have really done a fantastic job, really proud of them for what they've done. But yeah, I mean with the audience in their own homes, what was the response like from the customers? We knew we had to keep connected with our customers and we had to look to engage with them in their homes. So we brought the Roarr! experience to them. We created a number of free downloads as you spoke about, from our coloring in dinosaurs, then making face masks, through to full-on activity book. And even a live dinosaur tour of the park.Adam Goymour:The response to the activity has been fantastic. We've had so many social engagements, customer survey responses, and feedback, in general, to say how welcomed they were in such a hard time, especially with kids at home and parents looking for activities to keep them busy. Something we're keen to continue to produce also, that we've spoken about, especially over the winter period as well.Adam Goymour:We also partnered with the local press to provide creative competitions over a four week period where kids and adults could both get creative, and also win a free family pass to the park. We had some great entries and it's been a really successful strategy for us during a pandemic to keep the brand alive, but also to engage with our audience and ensure we're the first place they wanted to visit once we are back open. Our visitor numbers have reflected that. We plan on keeping this going as part of our marketing strategy, ensuring we're giving added value and also ensuring our customers are engaging with us even when they're not on the park.Adam Goymour:So that hopefully gives a round synopsis, and I did speak with my head of marketing on that question really, because she is the brains behind it, being given the full trust and talent to get on with it. She definitely performed, she being Natalie Douglas, rather than she, her. Really proud of that, so that's something we had an opportunity to try, and that's what I said to the team, "God, we've got so much opportunity to try things. Let's see what customers do like, don't like, and just keep trying new things and just seeing what we can get out of it." Which we have got a heck of a lot. So yeah, a real positive.Kelly Molson:Yeah, it is a lovely positive. It's really lovely to hear you actually thank your team as well. I mean, I spoke to Natalie during lockdown down and I know how challenging that was for her as well. I know how much she had on her plate. So it's really nice to see you give that recognition. But I think what you did was perfect, and like you say, now that people are coming back, you've actually seen that translate into visitor numbers. I want to talk to you about that in a minute, but I think just going back to through lockdown like I said, you were very, very, open about the challenges that you were facing. I really respected that, you spoke out on BBC Radio Norfolk, you were in the local press quite a lot. How much of a help has that government support been for you, because you were very, very, vocal about needing help and needing support to keep the facility there?Adam Goymour:Yeah, well we are the worst-hit industry, one of the first to close and last to open and yeah, we need that support. I mean, the VAT reduction from the government from 20% to 5% has been a godsend and really helped us financially, especially since we have reopened. That ends, I think, end of January next year. I hope that extends. We had MP Jerome Mayhew visit us. He was specifically interested in looking at how we're doing, and he was the original founder of Go Ape! But also owns three trampoline parks. So we had a good chat and I said to him that these are the things that we need, but also explained about what government support we have managed to achieve because quite a lot of them we were over the threshold, so that was difficult. But the reduction for VAT for the tourist industry is something that the industry has campaigned for, for many years. We pay a lot more VAT than other countries in Europe in the same industry and it always baffles me considering how many jobs we provide, especially in the local industry, and especially in Broadlands, which is the council area in Norfolk and being Norfolk's largest visitor attraction. The council is certainly on board with doing what they can to help us and have been great through this period. So yeah, all the level of support they provided and devised with the rate support has been useful and welcomed.Adam Goymour:Unfortunately, the banks have not been as supportive as they could have been, despite all the government's best-laid plans. We lost a million pounds worth of income, which is obviously significant to hit our business. We have utilized the government's furloughing scheme. We have some concerns about the furloughing scheme stopping at the end of October and the impacts that we'll have on the hospitality, leisure, and tourism sector. So we hope that can continue, and I know there's been stuff in the news about it, but let's hope that they listen and that they do support us because I think the demand, especially in Norfolk, has been incredible. I had a rare weekend off last weekend and I spent time at another visitor attraction with my girlfriend, Rosie, and her friends. And you could just see the demand is there, and we also have a holiday park, it's called Applewood Country Holiday Park, it's in Banham behind the zoo, which my sister runs. The demand has been exceptional, but obviously, we've had to manage that as well.Adam Goymour:So, that's the support we've had, has it been good enough? I think it's as good as he can be, I'm not going to criticize the government. It's been an unprecedented time, they've done everything they can. I think we can always moan but what does it achieve? Not a lot. You either need to take what you can and campaign, and fight for it, or you can moan. So we decided to say, "Look, this is what we've been handed and we now need to look at it and resolve it." So yeah, I think it's been there or thereabouts, I just think a little bit more support from the bank would be helpful, however. We're looking at that at the moment with some help. So that'll hopefully put us through to ensure that our longer-term plans are not affected by sales of other things. So, yeah, interesting future ahead.Kelly Molson:Well, yes, it still is an interesting time, isn't it? I guess it doesn't stop when the parks open. That's what we need to look at. So let's talk about reopening because I guess it was a really difficult place to even start to think about because you've got so many variables to think about, the demand has been there, but I guess at the time you're questioning whether it will be, whether people want to come back or not. You've got challenges, operational challenges, in terms of how many of your staff can you bring back and how many staff will you need? How did you even start to put those plans in place?Adam Goymour:Well, initially I was going, "Oh my God." It's just absorbing information from all the different avenues you've got available to you. And just listening, and just watching, reading, taking everything on board. Thankfully I'm a really good, big communicator with people in the industry. So I knew where the help was, I sought that help. I attended Zoom meetings even at seven, eight o'clock on a Friday night, every Friday night, throughout the whole lockdown period. Speaking to the council, speaking to other owner-operators, and listened to the guidance from the government and just listening to them. But the government as we know, they did what they could and we didn't get the details until very last minute. They're telling you, you can reopen, but then give you the guidance five days before, or four days before. You've got to turn that around, trying to anticipate, try, and preempt what they're going to provide you.Adam Goymour:So the best way to look at it was also listening to other operators in other countries. So for example, Efteling in Holland, Europa-Park in Germany, big family-run businesses, they're just sitting behind Disneyland Paris as the biggest theme parks in Europe. I've got friends in the industry all over the UK. So speaking to them about specifics in some of our attractions where we have a common denominator in terms of similar attractions. So speaking to them. We did, however, still have animal keepers at the secret animal garden at the park, which was one of our attractions, worked throughout. As did a couple of our parks and gardens staff so it wasn't like a jungle when we got back because we quite like to have really nice prim and proper parks and gardens. It is a massive task, not only return to the park to its normal high standard presentation, but also to bend really with the whole situation to understand and implement all the additional COVID-19 protection requirements.Adam Goymour:So first goal was to COVID-19 train our various managers, understand what we're up against. Look at how many visitors we think we could get in the park before the guidance came out, and look at how many staff can we actually operate with to be profitable on less visitors, but also supplying that excellent service as best we can. Then it's also the denominating fact that we might have some staff that don't want to come back because they're scared, which is absolutely okay. We had to have those chats with people, and it took some time. But our managers were committed. Our leadership team was firmly committed and we had to collectively agree and implement COVID signage, sanitizer points, which probably cost us about six to eight grand. PPE for the crew. I worked with a company called Regency Purchasing Group, they were a fantastic group of people led by Alex Demetriou. He also owns a Pier, Weston-Super-Mare Pier, he's a fantastic person, very helpful. His team are brilliant, so they really helped to source a lot of things that we needed. We've worked with them for a number of years, can't recommend them enough.Adam Goymour:We had the closure of Dinomite, our indoor play. Dippy-Ville, which is another indoor soft play. Predator high ropes initially, but thankfully it reopened not soon after we had reopened the park. During lockdown period I was speaking to Innovative Leisure, so Phil Pickersgill is the MD for the UK side of that business. I was speaking to him on and off about how's that going to work? How are we going to do it? What information have you got? He collaborated with all the other high ropes manufacturers, suppliers. So they came as one and they worked together on how all these operators could open them up. They did a whole guidance document, which they went through the HSE to then support us as businesses, rather than them all working individually, which is fantastic to see, and to get hold of that early on, gave us a fighting chance.Adam Goymour:It has probably been our biggest challenge because there's only so many people you get on there, and obviously it's included in our price. But yet, to make it pay, we need to get certain amount of business in. So we then found out how many people use the attraction, because although we were counting the amount of people on there before, it was really interesting to see how many people went on that, but also other attractions that we didn't have to log how many people went on there in a day because it just happened. We didn't have to worry about social distancing.Adam Goymour:We had to look at toilets in terms of that was always the biggest conversation of any Zoom meeting with BALPPA, and NFAN, with owner-operators, how the hell are we going to do this?Kelly Molson:Yeah.Adam Goymour:You can do something different, some people did this, some people like that. I had backup plans in case something didn't work and I knew the cost of those as well. We had one way systems, we had a whole new IT system in terms of getting people pre-booked onto the park. Then it's working with our iPAL system who are inundated with all of their clients in order to get what we needed to open. So that was a challenge.Kelly Molson:It's incredible, I mean, just hearing you talking it through, everyone that listens to this podcast will be ... they are in the sector. So they do completely understand the same challenges as you, but I mean, it is quite epic, isn't it? When you start to go through that list of things that it's affected, or that you've needed to change, or review, or adapt in some way, it feels never-ending doesn't it?Adam Goymour:It is a huge, enormous task, it was high magnitude. It was something I enjoy doing because I must admit, I think I've walked our 85-acre park now a hundred times in terms of the customer journey. So I did it on my own to start off with, I got it in my head. I had to do it, but I needed the team to help me deliver it. But I had to start somewhere and say, "This is what we're going to do." So that was really exciting because it was my chance to go, "Look, I'm going to lead us from the front and this is how we're going to do it guys." I did it on my own, it took me a full-on day. So I probably got there by eight, left about seven at night, racking your brains with it. Then I got my health and safety advisor in, we went through it, we spent all day as well. And then we had a plan. We knew how we were going to do it. Obviously, we had to work with the local EHO, to go through all of that, and away we went.Adam Goymour:Then it's just putting the plans in place, getting the staff in, staging them as well. Then working on the details of how we're going to do it once we brought the managers in because they're the ones that are going to be operating it. Then it's just supporting them and being with them at every stage, and getting their teams in. Who's going to come in, who doesn't want to come in, all this sort of stuff. That was really interesting. Obviously, risk assessments had to be thorough. They had to be at the pinnacle of everything, without a solid foundation of a risk assessment, you cannot operate. So that was also something that we had to look at.Adam Goymour:Then you've got the additional things that the government gave. So it's like, now face coverings are required in shops. Thankfully, we'd already produced obviously with our great marketing team, all of our branded face coverings.Kelly Molson:Of course, you did, dinosaur masks. That's what we all need, dinosaur face masks.Adam Goymour:It's great. We've got a few different designs and we are the first people in the UK to really come up with them, I believe, I didn't say anybody come up with them before us. We worked with Regency again to get those made, and on the different BALPPA and NFAN calls, other attractions were saying, "Well, where do we get one of those?" And I was like, "Here's the information, go get it. It's a fantastic thing." You need to make it fun. We're a fun place to go, why be boring, be run of the mill, and have a boring face mask. You're here for a day out with family, make it fun. We don't want to scare children, obviously, so we need to have some tamer ones, but for those that like him, we've also got some other ones. And then after that, we saw an Instagram, that Jurassic Park, they decided to start doing some.Kelly Molson:It all started with your park. It all started with Roarr! Adam. Roarr!Adam Goymour:Yeah, and I can vouch for that because I didn't see anything on the internet that anyone else is doing with dinosaur masks, I think we can stand proud of that.Kelly Molson:Yeah, I really liked ... I love that, that you've injected that level of fun into something that actually could be quite frightening for kids. If they don't really fully understand what's happening, but what you've also talked quite a lot about, and it's something that we've just recorded an episode about is this sector cooperation. The sector coming together to help each other. I guess it has been one of those sectors that has always spoken to each other quite a lot, but it really seems like this situation has just brought out the very best in people. There's been so much knowledge share between attractions and suppliers, and that's just wonderful to see.Adam Goymour:Yeah, I think the industry is a lovely, lovely industry. Most of us are family-run businesses. We're families that are running these places. The biggest family-run theme park, I believe in the UK, is Paultons Park down in Southampton, the Mancey's, fantastic family, a very reputable business, a good brand. Like us, we're a family run business and we're similar age, the son, the owner there, James, and he's a really nice guy. We kept in touch all the time. There's a whole host of other young persons, similar to my age, where we meet up probably quarterly to chat through ideas, to talk about the industry. It's a lonely place and it's not ... although it brings so much to the country in terms of income, and jobs and everything, believe it or not, there isn't that many of us. It's nice to meet up and I really love the industry. It's great.Kelly Molson:Yeah, I bet. So let's fast forward to being open. You talked earlier when you said demand has been pretty incredible. What's it been like? What has it been like? Has it gone crazy?Adam Goymour:Yeah, it has and I think in a good way. I think it's taught the English people to love where they live. The amount of campaigns coming from Great Britain, which has been then put down to their local DMO's, Destination Management Organizations. So Visit Norfolk. Then you've got Visit Suffolk, obviously. Then that goes up to Visit East of England, who we're working a lot more closely with Visit Britain, to get the attention of the government, to give us some money. We're a larger tourism industry or area of the country than Cornwall, people don't know that and they should. We've got to shout about it more and more. So I'm certainly whenever I attend Visit Norfolk meetings saying, "We've got to do something about it." And keep putting my voice across with that because I've been given an opportunity to have a voice, which I love. So, again, a great bunch of people.Adam Goymour:So yeah, what's it been like since we reopened?Kelly Molson:Nonstop?Adam Goymour:Nonstop, it continues to be a roller coaster, lots of learnings. It's been busy. It's been exciting. We've managed, fortunately a bit after reopening initially, officially opened to new attractions that haven't been opened before. We had Dippy Live Show, so Dippy is our trademarked character. So Dippy the diplodocus, then we've had Dippy's Raceway. So we've got a specific area in the park now dedicated to Dippy, this yellow and purple dinosaur, which the kids absolutely love. Great merchandise, great brand bible-based around him. We managed to open those up. We already had some money spent on it, so it was just about putting it together. So thankfully it wasn't a huge cost, but it allowed the same amount of attractions to be open where we had to close some indoor areas. So that was a real, real plus, a real positive, something that we were very proud to be able to do in these really hard times. It gave something for our guests to talk about, and to think, "Oh yeah, that's new. We got to go there."Kelly Molson:No, that's a really interesting point actually, isn't it? Because like you say, you're opening up and you are competing with everybody else that's opening up. To be able to open with something new that nobody's been able to see before, that is really positive and really exciting. Obviously, going to be a crowd draw for you.Adam Goymour:Yeah, and Dippy's Raceway, side of Dippy's Splash Zone, which is a fantastic attraction and that's been our most popular attraction, which tells us we are putting in the right things. We're listening to our guests, we know what they like. For them to enjoy that, which clearly shows by the daily figures we get knowing how many people are using those attractions. That's been a real nice plus really, to see that materialize and come to the floor really.Adam Goymour:Other things it's just been seeing guests' behavior, seeing staff behavior, how we react in these times, and just seeing how we've pulled together as a team. We've had, at times when we do have crew shortages, which everybody knows you get, we've had teams muck in and do other jobs, which has been really good. That was something I set out when all the managers started. I said, "Look, we may have to obviously all muck in, which is pretty usual, but more so than usual to ensure that the park runs smoothly for our guests." And they have, as when the needs arise, they done just that. So it's been a lot about learnings, note takings, reacting really quickly when we needed to, constantly monitoring, adapting, and just getting things right.Kelly Molson:It is a lovely, positive story and it's wonderful to hear that you've been inundated with people coming back, and so positive that you've been able to open these new rides and these new areas. What does the next six months hold for you? You have PrimEVIL don't you, which is obviously big around Halloween time? What, what does the next few months look for you in the run-up to Christmas?Adam Goymour:Yeah, well number one, that'll be the reopening of our award-winning and Norfolk's largest indoor play area at Dinomite. Today we had our annual roster inspection, so we know where we're up to with that and can make all the necessary repairs. We've got a cleaning company coming in next week to give it a full-blown clean. Then we've got all the signage that's been re-wrapped today, using all of our trademark characters, to make it really fun and immersive because we've got to have one way systems, good ventilation, lower capacity numbers. So that's been a whole different ball game, setting all that up.Adam Goymour:What else have we been doing? So whilst we continue to enjoy some plans, we've had to sort out September tickets, October tickets, Halloween during the day, Halloween during the night, which has been a big topic of conversation as of late. Look at Christmas, we've got our plans, but we haven't completed them yet.Adam Goymour:PrimEVIL is something we've had to completely change how we do it. So we've got a dedicated team in house that look after it, we've been chatting with the other big Halloween operators in the UK. So Tulleys Farm, Stuart Beare, has the biggest Halloween attraction in the UK. So I've been chatting with him. Doug Douglas, from Avon Valley, near Bath. Tom Pearcey from York Maze, and a couple of others where you got Iver and Tom Robinson. We've just been going through the plans, what can we expect? What ideas have we got? There's also to ScareCON Group with Michael Bolton. It's going to be in bubbles, obviously, a lot lower capacity, walk around the attractions. We're going to have to eliminate some of the things where obviously it's not possible to have those during these times.Adam Goymour:We're also creating some fun stuff around it. So that's going to be called Route 666, which has got some fantastic graphics which we've done internally. We'll release tickets, and we'll just have to see what happens and just see what comes up. If we have to close it, we have to close it. We know what the cost is going to be. If we decided to go ahead with it and then we have to close it before we even start, we're prepared to make that risk, but it's a small risk in terms of what we could make if it does go ahead.Adam Goymour:So, that's what we've got going on at the minute, but obviously see next year of certainly got a lot of plans, what I want to do for the future. And we've got a longterm plan, which I've been doing in the meantime. Which is the future of the business and to make it what I want it to be? So we're working on that as well. So yeah, they're the main things at the moment.Kelly Molson:Good, it sounds super positive. I'm really pleased that you've been so busy. I genuinely have been just really impressed with the openness of how you shared what you were going through during lockdown, but also, it's just lovely to see how positive the reaction has been from your customers coming back. So thank you for being really open on today's podcast and sharing all that with us.Kelly Molson:I always like to end the podcast by asking about a book that you would recommend. So a book that has helped shape your career in some way or something, one that you would recommend to us all.Adam Goymour:Well as I said earlier, lockdown gave me the opportunity to indulge in some reading, which I've not always had the opportunity to do, or as much as I would like. There's been a couple of books really that have made a real impression on me, and Simon Sinek, I love listening to him and reading his books. You've got the original books like Why. And then there's, Leaders Eat Last, and I'll probably say Leaders Eat Last, to be honest. It talks all about leadership excellence, and I've got notes here right in front of me, which I make as I read the book because my memory's awful. So I have to write down notes and just refer back to it. I've got a huge green board behind me on my office wall, which is basically my brain and I'll just put it on there.Adam Goymour:He talks a lot about leadership excellence. Values talks about the value of empathy, a whole host of other things. The willingness to listen to your team, it's now really utilize everything that I've learned from that book and sharing it with my management team because they're a young bunch, and they're dedicated, enthusiastic, and I certainly want to invest in them. As a leader, I want to inspire, and to do more, learn more, and become more. We've got a real opportunity here, so it's just working with them, with my head of HR. He's fantastic, he helps me when I struggle to get my words out from the head when we got so much going on. It's working with them really and just utilize whatever I've learned from that.Kelly Molson:It's a great book, great recommendation. I love that you've turned that around and you want to empower your staff and your team to be able to use that as well. Well look, if you would like to win a copy of that book, then if you head over to our Twitter account, which is skip_the_queue, and you retweet this episode announcement with the comment, "I want Adam's book."

I think it would be lovely maybe to get you back on in a year from now and find out how all of those plans have developed as well. I think that would be great.Adam Goymour:I'd absolutely love to, that'd be great.Kelly Molson:Thanks, Adam.Adam Goymour:Thank you very much.Kelly Molson:Thanks for listening to Skip the Queue.

MultimediaLIVE — The Dinosaur Park in Mpumalanga province in South Africa should be much more famous than it is. The life-size animals, which include a brontosaurs, were created by one of the country's top wildlife artists and live out their days in a gorgeous piece of sub-tropical forest at the edge of the equally wonderful Sudwala Caves. The caverns are packed with fossils and bats and were once the refuge of a great Swazi king and his people. This is the story of how the park came to be.

Dan and Janice and the crew head down from the hills for a day in Rapid City. What began as an errand run ended at the top of the highest mountain in town surrounded by dinosaurs. No, really, in 1936 the city elders decided to construct life-sized dinosaurs to bring in tourists and, nearly 100 years later, here come Janice and Dan. Week Seven starts here!

This month on the Iowa Music Showcase podcast, we present to you a sampling of some of the offerings you can find from Des Moines record label, Sump Pump Records. This actually started with Chuck Hoffman of Sump Pump sending me a few submissions. So I suggested he send a few more and we could do an episode. He and one of his partners in crime at Sump Pump, Tom Reelitz, ended up sending me enough material for two episodes! "The story of Sump Pump Records officially begins in 1998 when Dan Hutchison and Bill Heard formed the label to release the debut 7" EP of Why Make Clocks, then a duo of Hutchison and Brian Wiksell. A second release, Chad O'Neal's Evolution No. 9 CD, followed in 2001 before the label went dormant as its proprietors focused on their bands. "In 2013, Hutchison embarked on a project of his own devising to release a compilation of music from artists based in Des Moines recorded entirely on 4-track cassette. Recording the majority of the tracks himself in his own basement, Hutchison enlisted Wiksell and a few other trusted former members of Why Make Clocks to re-launch Sump Pump Records for its release. "Since then, Sump Pump Records has produced an eclectic selection of vinyl releases, and amassed a distribution inventory of other releases, largely by artists based in, rooted in, or connected in some way with the label's home state of Iowa, all available through their online store at sumppumprecords.com." - from an email sent to us Sump Pump Records home page: http://sumppumprecords.com/ Sump Pump Records on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sumppumprecords/ Sump Pump Records on Bandcamp: https://sumppumprecords.bandcamp.com/ More Iowa Music Showcase podcast episodes: http://iowamusicshowcase.blogspot.com/search/label/Iowa%20Music%20Showcase%20podcast More IMSC posts featuring Sump Pump Records: http://iowamusicshowcase.blogspot.com/search/label/Sump%20Pump%20Records More IMSC posts featuring record labels: http://iowamusicshowcase.blogspot.com/search/label/record%20labels Cover by Stutterin Jimmy (https://iowamusicshowcasesongs.blogspot.com/2018/03/ep-61-cover-by-stutterin-jimmy.html) TRACK LISTING: For more information on each track and the artists, click on the link below the track.

#116 - This week we talk about the latest edition of the simultaneously best and worst idea for a dinosaur themed park, Jurassic World. We go in depth about park safety regulations, childhood fantasies, and how the T-Rex is basically Godzilla. Enjoy!   Category: Movies

In which our heroes are sent to their almost certain deaths once again because THERE'S ANOTHER GODDAMN DINOSAUR PARK. We try to ditch/murder Vince Vaughn as soon as we can, attempt to throw dinosaurs in the trash and wonder how Jackson got our phone numbers again. Zammit and Duscher try to rescue their black daughter and mutual common law wife from a monster filled jungle as they resist the urge to help poachers and Jackson barks orders from his nice, comfy bed. So sit back and then stand up so you can run for life because they brought a dinosaur home with them and it’s ruining the city and everything you ever loved.

In which our heroes revisit Jurassic Park, go on another (mis)guided tour and run from the dinosaurs that have inevitable escaped from their enclosures while wondering if John Hammond is a bad boss. We look at the complications of building a theme-park on top of Central Park, the many ways one foolish man can traumatise young children, and the outstanding prehistory of horses. Jackson hires mercenaries to protect children, Zammit keeps tabs on how many children die, and Duscher just wants to accept the warm embrace of death. So step through the front gates, realise none of the exhibits are anywhere near safe or secure, and take a journey through Jackson B. Baly’s very own: Dinosaur Park. Nuuh nuh nuuuuuuh nuh nuh, nuuh nuh nuuuuuuh nuh nuh, nuuuh nuh nuuuuh nuh nuh nuuuuuh nuuuuhhh nuh. Want to help fund a class action suit against Jackson?

TransCanada Transpondency Adam Gratrix continues on another 3 week adventure across Canada A travelogue, of sorts. Part 15: Wandering the Calgary Stampede Grounds, Adam and Tammy navigate through throngs of people standing in lines, saunter passed commercial vendor booths, and soar over the crowds on a gondola. Then it's away to Brooks to visit relatives under thunderstorms, down to Dinosaur Park, and out to the aqueduct tourist info booth.
