Seriously? Gavin and Jennifer Newsom are SURPRISED the feds are on to them? Listen as Gavin does a little 180 Rule and blames Trump for doing all the things he has been doing. Yawn. What a boring playbook. Jenny Newsom looks to get snarled in her own money mess too. And is anyone else curious about the $200 million money laundering op democrats were funneling through Ukraine with USAID for Joe Biden's re-election fund? Is THAT why Zelensky is now so eager to make a deal with Trump?

Today we're diving into something we use every day - our voice. Most of us are walking around with an unconscious default voice that's been patched together from old stories, childhood wounds, cultural expectations, and whatever got us through the day. But what if that voice isn't really you?Meet Barbara McAfee - voice whisperer, author, singer, and playful catalyst for authentic expression. For more than three decades, Barbara has helped people shed vocal habits shaped by old stories and step into voices that feel truly like home. Through sound, story, character work, and her Five Elements system, she makes voice liberation both profound and ridiculously fun. She's a master voice coach, bestselling author of Full Voice and Vocal Intelligence, and dynamic speaker whose two TEDx talks - including the widely viewed “Bringing Your Full Voice to Life” - have inspired hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. Her work has reached leaders, organizations, international educators, community singing movements, and countless individuals through keynotes, retreats, coach trainings, and her beloved Morning Star Singers hospice choir.Barbara, in so many ways, graces us with her presence on The Junkyard Love Podcast to remind us that our voice is the primary way we shape our world.Your voice is the instrument that shapes your expression on the way out. What we really 'mean' is upstream of the voice, and how we express what we really mean is changed by the voice - our life is lived downstream of our ability to express ourselves. Our expressions are interpreted by one another through an infinite number of micro movements, frequencies, rhythms, pheromones, sensory perceptions, biological responses, and so many more - but our voices carry truths even our own conscious perception can't filter out. Barbara shares that our voices are often shaped by past traumas, survival strategies, cultural pressure, and old stuck identities - and she teaches us how to release those unconscious holds in our physical body, allowing the voice to open and flow without restraint. In this back-and-forth conversation, we cover how most of us are unconsciously wearing what Barbara calls a “vocal girdle” - that invisible tightness and restriction we build over years from old wounds, family expectations, and cultural pressure that keeps our voice smaller and safer than it wants to be. She shares how we can gently loosen and remove it through her joyful Five Elements framework (Earth, Fire, Water, Metal, and Air), by playing with characters and archetypes, and through simple, everyday practices like laughing through the different sounds, voicing your yawns, and reading children's books out loud. We also explore the magic of group singing, the power of pretending to be someone else, code-switching with awareness, and why freeing your voice changes so much more than just how you sound - it changes how you show up in every part of your life.If you've ever felt like your voice doesn't quite match who you really are inside, this conversation is full of heart, laughter, insight, and practical tools you can start using right away - to start speaking with your real voice.Key Topics Covered:Unconscious vocal habits and the “vocal girdle” most of us wearHow childhood experiences and trauma shape our voiceThe Five Elements Framework for vocal freedomPlaying characters and archetypes to access hidden parts of yourselfThe power of group singing and collective connectionPractical daily tools to open and strengthen your voiceCode switching, ego, and authentic flexibilityVoice work for leaders, creatives, and everyday lifeChapter Timestamps (YouTube & Podcast Platforms)00:00 – Why Most People Are Stuck in an Unconscious “Default” Voice00:58 – The “Vocal Girdle”: How Old Wounds and Expectations Restrict Us02:13 – How Childhood Trauma and Family Secrets Shape Your Voice Long-Term04:10 – The Five Elements Framework (Earth, Fire, Water, Metal, Air) Explained05:40 – Barbara's Personal Story: Overcoming Fear of Singing Solo08:32 – The Secret Power of Playing Characters and Archetypes13:38 – Ego, “Brain Rats,” and Gently Expanding Beyond Your Comfort Zone22:55 – Practical Voice Tools for Leaders, Presentations, and Difficult Conversations30:29 – The Magic of Group Singing and Deep Human Connection34:05 – Jacob's Wild DJ Story: Unifying Experiences and Collective Flow40:06 – Laugh, Yawn & Read Children's Books: Easy Daily Practices to Open Your Voice46:26 – Code Switching: Shifting Voices Authentically Across Situations55:12 – Why Humans Crave Collective Ecstasy and Group Singing01:01:40 – Barbara's Books, Music, and Life's Work01:12:45 – Current Retreats, Courses, and What's Next for Barbara01:17:01 – Final Wisdom and Closing ReflectionsLearn practical voice exercises and how to speak with more confidence and authenticity.Key Quotes from Barbara“Most of us are using our kind of unconscious default voice that we think is us, but it's not.

Subscribe in: Apple Podcast | iPhone | Spotify | Pandora | Amazon Music | iHeartRadio  | YouTube If you have ever finished a round of EFT tapping and found yourself yawning uncontrollably, you are not imagining things. In 18 years of working with clients, this question lands in my inbox almost every single month. It is actually one of the top search terms that brings new readers to TappingQandA.com. TL;DR / Key Takeaways Yawning, burping, and stomach gurgles after a tapping round are all signs that your body shifted out of fight-or-flight mode and into its natural rest-and-restore state. The human nervous system operates in two distinct modes: the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) and the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest). EFT tapping moves you from the first into the second. When the digestive system comes back online after a stress response, it produces physical signals including yawns, burps, farts, and stomach rumbles. You do not need to yawn for tapping to have worked. The absence of a yawn is not evidence that nothing changed. These physical responses are among the most common questions people search before finding this site, which tells us that tappers everywhere share this experience and wonder what it means. Why Do I Yawn After Tapping? The Short Answer Yawning after a round of EFT tapping means your nervous system just made a real, measurable shift. It moved out of sympathetic activation (the stress state) and into parasympathetic activation (the recovery state), and your body is announcing that transition out loud. EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), commonly called tapping, involves tapping on specific acupressure points on the face and upper body while focusing on an emotional issue. Some of the earliest peer-reviewed research on tapping demonstrated that it reduces cortisol, the primary stress hormone produced during fight-or-flight activation. When cortisol drops and the sympathetic response de-escalates, the parasympathetic nervous system takes over. That handoff produces a cascade of physical changes, and yawning is one of the most visible. Key insight: "The yawn is your body's way of resetting its state. It is the system literally changing shape from the inside to signal that the danger has passed." What Are the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems? The human nervous system runs in two modes that cannot operate simultaneously. Your body is always choosing between them based on its read of your environment. The sympathetic nervous system governs fight or flight. When the brain perceives a threat, physical or emotional, it floods the body with adrenaline and cortisol. Heart rate climbs. Pupils dilate to take in more visual information. Oxygen is pushed to your limbs so you can run or fight. Digestion shuts down almost entirely, because processing food is a waste of resources when a threat is nearby. Some people experience the extreme version of this when they go blank before a presentation or job interview. The capillaries in the brain constrict as oxygen is rerouted to the muscles, which is why all the answers you forgot come flooding back the moment you walk out the door and the threat passes. The parasympathetic nervous system governs rest, repair, and digestion. Heart rate drops. Pupils contract to sharpen focus. The digestive system powers back on. Growth and maintenance processes resume. You can learn more about how the nervous system connects to emotional healing in Pod #482, where I talked through the full picture with Dr. Jen Cincurak, a naturopathic doctor whose work centers on nervous system maturation and somatic tools including tapping. Why Tapping Triggers the Shift from Stress to Rest Tapping moves the body from sympathetic to parasympathetic activation by sending a calming signal through the acupressure system while you hold a stressful thought or feeling in mind. The combination of cognitive focus and physical tapping interrupts the fight-or-flight loop. Key insight: "What tapping does is give the nervous system new information. It says: you can be present with this emotion without being in danger because of it." The early body of scientific research on tapping, including studies that measured cortisol in saliva before and after sessions, showed measurable decreases in the stress hormone within a single session. That biological change is not metaphorical. It is the same shift the body makes when a frightening situation resolves and you let out a long exhale. Tapping makes it available on purpose, for emotional material the nervous system has been holding in stress mode for days, months, or years. For a deeper look at the evidence behind why tapping produces these effects, Why Tapping Works: Six Evidence-Based Premises covers the research base in plain language. What Causes the Yawning, Burping, and Stomach Gurgles? When the parasympathetic nervous system takes over, every system that was put on hold during the stress response comes back online at once. That re-activation is not silent. The yawn is a physical resetting of the throat and airway, part of the body recalibrating its breathing pattern as it relaxes. It is not about being sleepy (though it can feel that way). It is the airway itself changing shape as surrounding muscles release tension. The burps, farts, and stomach gurgles are the digestive system restarting. During fight or flight, digestion goes essentially offline. The moment the parasympathetic system takes over, digestion turns back on like an engine starting up after sitting cold. It makes noise. It produces gas. That is not a malfunction. That is the machinery doing exactly what it is supposed to do. This connects to broader patterns around what happens in the body during emotional healing, a topic I explored in depth with Julie Schiffman in an early episode on physical body signals. Does Not Yawning Mean Tapping Did Not Work? No. The absence of a yawn after tapping does not mean nothing happened. Key insight: "The yawn is one sign that the shift occurred. It is not the only sign, and its absence is not evidence of failure." Yawning signals the sympathetic-to-parasympathetic transition when it is large enough to produce a physical response, but subtler or more gradual shifts may not trigger visible physical signals. Some sessions produce a quiet settling rather than a dramatic physical announcement. Some people rarely yawn at all, regardless of what their nervous system is doing. I have worked with clients who felt genuinely deflated after a session because they did not yawn the way they had in earlier rounds. They assumed that meant the session did not work. In most cases, they had already done significant work on the issue previously, and the remaining shifts were quieter. Quieter does not mean smaller. If you are wondering whether your tapping is actually producing results, Pod #703 on why you might feel worse after a round of tapping addresses exactly that concern in detail. Other Physical Signs That Tapping Is Working Yawning is the most commonly noticed signal, but it belongs to a larger family of parasympathetic indicators. After a productive tapping round, you might also notice a deep sigh or a long exhale that seems to come out of nowhere. A shift in the weight of your shoulders or a release of tension in your jaw. A brief wave of tiredness as the nervous system moves out of high alert and the body relaxes toward its resting state. Occasionally a sudden need to use the bathroom, which is the GI tract re-engaging. None of these are problems. They are the body doing its job, communicating in the language it was designed to use. If you have ever felt oddly emotional right after a round of tapping and wondered whether something went wrong, Pod #695 on why you feel sad after tapping walks through the same nervous-system logic applied to emotional release. The Five Stress Responses and What They Mean for Tapping Most people know fight or flight, but the sympathetic nervous system actually produces five distinct stress responses, sometimes called the five Fs: fight, flight, freeze, flop, and fawn. Fight and flight are the most familiar. Freeze is what happens when the threat is so overwhelming that movement seems impossible. Flop is a more extreme collapse response. Fawn is the social version, appeasing and accommodating to neutralize the threat through relationship. All five of these states share the same underlying biochemistry: cortisol, adrenaline, constricted digestion, elevated heart rate, redirected blood flow. And all five can be the state your nervous system is carrying when you sit down to tap on an emotional issue. Key insight: "Every one of those five stress responses is the body trying to keep you safe. Tapping gives the system the signal that the danger has passed and it is safe to stand down." This is why tapping can produce the same yawning and digestive reset regardless of whether the original stress was acute fear, chronic people-pleasing, or old frozen shock. The body's exit route from all five states runs through the same parasympathetic doorway, and the yawn on the other side is the same yawn. What to Do When You Notice These Physical Signals After Tapping When you notice a yawn, a burp, or a gurgle during or after tapping, you do not need to do anything special. Simply acknowledge it as confirmation that your nervous system is responding. A few practices that support this process: Pause after the physical signal. When you yawn or feel a release, give yourself 30 seconds to breathe and let the shift settle before moving on. Notice what changed emotionally. After the signal, check in with the issue you were tapping on. Does it feel different? Smaller? More distant? This is your informal SUDS (Subjective Units of Distress Scale) check, which is the standard 0 to 10 measure of emotional intensity used in EFT. Do not chase the yawn. Tapping longer or harder specifically to produce more yawning is unnecessary. If the yawn happened, the shift happened. Trust it. Keep a short log. Some tappers find it helpful to note physical signals alongside their emotional observations after a session. Over time this builds self-knowledge about how your particular nervous system signals change. If you want a structured way to use tapping consistently and build on these kinds of shifts day by day, 365TappingLessons.com offers a full year of guided sessions built around exactly this kind of body-informed practice. Frequently Asked Questions Why do I yawn so much when I do EFT tapping? Yawning during or after EFT tapping is your nervous system shifting from sympathetic activation (fight or flight) to parasympathetic activation (rest and digest). This shift causes a physical reset in the throat and airway, which produces yawning. Frequent yawning during tapping typically means your sessions are moving significant stored stress through your system. Is yawning after tapping a good sign? Yes. Yawning after tapping is a positive indicator that your nervous system made a genuine transition from a stress state into a recovery state. It is not coincidence. It is the body responding to the biochemical shift that tapping creates. What does it mean when my stomach gurgles during tapping? Stomach gurgles during tapping mean your digestive system is coming back online after being suppressed by a stress response. During fight or flight, digestion essentially shuts down to conserve energy. When tapping moves you into a parasympathetic state, digestion restarts and produces audible sounds. This is a healthy, normal response. Does not yawning mean tapping is not working? No. You can have a highly effective tapping session with no yawning at all. Yawning signals the parasympathetic shift when it is large enough to produce a visible physical response, but subtler shifts may not trigger it. Judge the effectiveness of a session by how the emotional issue feels afterward, not by whether you yawned. Can tapping make you feel tired? Yes, and for a good reason. Coming out of a sustained stress state, even a low-grade chronic one, requires the nervous system to recalibrate. When the parasympathetic system takes over after tapping, the body sometimes relaxes into a brief wave of tiredness. This is normal and typically passes within a few minutes. What are the five F stress responses and how does tapping address them? The five stress responses are fight, flight, freeze, flop, and fawn. All five are expressions of the sympathetic nervous system triggered by perceived danger. Tapping works across all five because it addresses the underlying biochemistry (cortisol, adrenaline, restricted digestion) rather than any one specific behavioral expression of stress. Is there research showing tapping reduces the stress response? Yes. Some of the earliest peer-reviewed studies on EFT measured cortisol levels before and after tapping sessions and found significant reductions within a single session. This physiological evidence supports what tappers report experientially: that tapping produces a measurable shift in the body's stress state, not just a change in perspective.

Watching Sunday’s NFL title game has become one of my least favorite major sports events of the year. You must credit the NFL for making fans wait for two full weeks for the season finale to be played.  This brilliant marketing move allows word-of-mouth to spread to the once-per-year viewers who just show-up to watch the commercials and enjoy a party. Those of us season-long football fans are ready to get this final game of the year over with.  The pro football season continues to be stretched out longer and longer.  Rest assured that football season will eventually shrink if demand falls. The Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots had exceptional regular seasons with identical 14-3 records.  Unfortunately for Patriots fans, their favorite team’s offense was as cold as the weather back east in Boston last weekend. Seattle toyed with New England throughout the first half like a kitten batting around a ball of yarn.  A 3-0 first quarter Seattle lead became an equally boring 9-0 halftime advantage for the Seahawks. Sunday’s third quarter likely put many to sleep.  Seattle’s kicker Jason Myers added his fourth field goal of the game. Wowee!   It was 12-0 heading into the final 15 minutes of the NFL season. At least New England punter Bryce Barringer had the chance to say “Hi, Mom!” as he punted an incredible eight times in the first three quarters.  This game was played in perfect weather conditions in Santa Clara, California. Yawn. Some of us tinfoil hat conspiracy theorists put forth that the NFL has exposed a rather interesting “fourth quarter” trend.  Nearly every playoff game played this season had an explosion of points coming in the fourth quarter of play. Why has that been happening? Sunday’s season finale was no exception. This game’s final quarter produced (gasp!) 30 points between these two sleepy combatants.  Seattle was never in jeopardy of losing the lead during the final quarter.  The Seahawks completed a touchdown pass to open-up a 19-0 lead on the hapless Patriots. New England’s passing game finally awakened long enough to produce two late touchdowns after this game was effectively over.  Final score:  Seattle 29, New England 13 Seattle’s “Dark Side Defense” deserved the MVP The Seahawks’ defense appeared to know New England’s offensive playbook as well as the Patriots did.  Blitz after blitz sacked New England’s 23-year old second year quarterback Drake Maye.  He was taken down six times, hurried on nearly every throw, had two interceptions, and lost a critical fumble. Seattle’s defense literally threw the kitchen sink at Drake Maye on Sunday.  They suffocated New England’s running game, too.  The team’s quarterback ran for his life for 37 yards to lead all New England rushers Sunday evening. Seahawks’ running back Kenneth Walker III had a tremendous game with 135 yards on the ground. His backfield dance moves should earn him an invitation to the next season of “Dancing with the Stars”. Walker’s running ability provided some of the only excitement during the first three quarters of this rather boring football game.  Walker received the game’s MVP award.  It’s a shame that the Seattle defense couldn’t receive this award as a group. New England Patriots – Were they simply lucky to have made it this far? Many are pointing out that New England’s 2025 regular season schedule was loaded with weaker teams.  The Patriots played 12 of their 17 regular season games against teams which would post a losing record in 2025. New England finished with a stellar 14-3 record after going 4-13 just a year ago.  The Patriots’ excellent defense carried this team into the NFL title game.  New England allowed just three points (at home vs. the Chargers), 16 points (home vs. the Texans) and only seven at Denver in three playoff games leading up to Sunday’s NFL title game. This year’s group of AFC playoff teams were, being generous, offensively-challenged.  Top-seeded Denver’s defense carried the Broncos all season long.  The Houston Texans had a terrific year – on defense.  Jacksonville’s surprising season was also led by a better-than-expected defense. It didn’t matter which team emerged from the AFC to face Seattle on Sunday.  The Seahawks had a defense capable of clobbering any AFC contender this year and just enough offense to win. That was Seattle’s simple recipe for victory all season long. Is Seattle a dynasty in the making or was this just one great season? Don’t forget that the Los Angeles Rams gave the Seattle Seahawks a run for the NFC West title all year long.  The banged-up San Francisco 49ers also gave the Seahawks and the Rams a run for the money.  All three NFC West competitors made it into the second round of the playoffs. Seattle finished 14-3 in the regular season.  They played just eight teams with losing records this year. The Seahawks’ defense was already considered top notch.  The offense, though, surprised many with an improved performance in 2025. Seattle scored less than 20 points in only three of 20 total games this season. The Seahawks’ eighth-ranked offense developed into a perfect complement to the NFL’s top-rated defense. A number of Seahawks players will want more money to stick around for next season. Assuming they will lose a few to players to free agency, the nucleus of this team is still young and talented. Coach Mike Macdonald’s magic with this team is much like college football’s Indiana Hoosiers under coach Curt Cignetti.  Macdonald’s Seattle Seahawks always seemed better prepared for games than their opponents. Yes, Seattle should be a force in the NFL again next season – assuming that they remain relatively injury free. Sunday’s commercials didn’t move my meter.  How about you? The commercials for Sunday’s game ran $8 million per 30-second ad.  I challenge you to point to one specific commercial which will move you to purchase that company’s product this week. A national newspaper just published its annual ranking of these expensive ads. The beer commercial featuring a horse saving a baby bird (which turned out to be an American eagle) flew into the top spot.  Will it sell any more beer this week or simply convince 100 million people that this particular beer maker is more patriotic than its competitors? A potato chip maker’s tearjerker ad showing an aging farmer handing over the keys of his farm equipment to his daughter captured second place.  It was a very nice spot, but I doubt millions will drop an extra bag of the company’s $5 potato chips into their grocery cart this week. The bronze medal winner featured an iconic polar bear (long representing the top cola maker) coming to grips that his major competitor’s new sugar-free cola actually tastes better.  Will millions now check-out the taste of the polar bear’s new favorite soft drink?  Doubtful. I wanted to like the Neil Diamond imitator singing a knock-off of “Sweet Caroline” as he sprayed mayo onto sandwiches inside of a cafe.  The commercial’s ending was just a bit weird. My “creepy-but-effective” commercials award went to an AI developer.  Their commercials all began with a person asking AI for advice.  A computer generated character then provided a cringy answer and suddenly morphed into an unexpected product sales pitch.  Effective, but who’s buying their product? My thoughts on the 30-minute halftime show?  I haven’t watched it in decades Did you know that the NFL’s “big game” primarily featured college marching bands beginning in 1967 for ten years until mid-1970’s?  A wholesome singing group known as “Up with People” was featured five times over the next ten years as the primary halftime entertainment. Even us younger viewers (at the time) cringed. The year 1991 brought “New Kids on the Block” as the first pop-oriented group performing at halftime.  Michael Jackson’s 1993 appearance officially solidified the change to one primary performer for future halftime shows.  Major popular artists like Diana Ross, Aerosmith, Paul McCartney, and the Rolling Stones would appear over the next ten years. The last 20 years has produced younger artists to help attract that demographic to the annual football extravaganza. This year’s halftime show featured a polarizing performer who became the first to sing a halftime show entirely in Spanish.  Many liked the show.  Some didn’t and changed the channel. I didn’t watch the halftime show (as usual) in order to grab a snack and check my email. Happy trails to you, football! Adios to college and pro football for another season.  The Indiana Hoosiers and Seattle Seahawks were deserving champions this year. Though some of us will be tempted to watch a game or two of spring football in a few months, America’s most popular sport needs to hibernate until next fall. Less truly is best.

Only one out of four of us able to watch all of the Grammy's. Another pile of political crap and less focus on music. Time to rename the show. Yawn.

Strippers and Homeschoolers | Byron YawnJohn 8:1-11 ESV

In The Soccer 100, the Athletic's list of the greatest footballers in history, Lionel Messi is ranked number one. Perhaps. But he might also be its most boring—at least as a man. For Michael Cox, a contributor to The Soccer 100, Messi is undeniably great, but compared to his fellow Argentine Diego Maradona, he's a nonentity. Football is theater. That's why it's the world's game. So it's the tragic narratives of a Maradona or a Jimmy Greaves we most remember and cherish. The game is beautiful because of the poetry, not the prose, of its stars. * Messi has ticked every box except one: being interesting. Cox voted for Messi as the greatest, but concedes Maradona and Cruyff “go above and beyond everyone else” in terms of personality. Messi left Argentina at thirteen, never had Maradona's volcanic connection with his country, and may never be held in quite the same esteem at home.* Di Stefano was stolen from Barcelona by Franco—and the theft created football's greatest rivalry. Before the heist, Real Madrid's main rivals were Atletico. The loss of the era's best player helped transform Barcelona vs. Real into what it is today.* England doesn't produce geniuses because English football is suspicious of them. Cox: “There's often been a desire to amalgamate mavericks into a system rather than bringing out the best in them.” The culture values hard work, scrappiness, physicality. Jimmy Greaves—perhaps the greatest English player ever—was left out of the 1966 final and later sold without his knowledge.* The 2026 World Cup may be a logistical and competitive disaster. Forty-eight teams, three countries, more group-stage matches than any previous tournament just to get down to thirty-two. Cox: “There'll be a few teams there who with respect just won't be able to compete.”* The greatest goal in history wasn't Maradona's solo run—it was Pele's pass. Cox prefers the Carlos Alberto goal: team football as poetry, five number tens on the same wavelength, and the simplest possible finish after exhausting Italy with collective brilliance.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

My name is Bella Vasta, and today I'm here to talk about something that is costing you clients every single day, potentially. I see this online and I finally had to do a podcast on it, and you probably don't even realize you're doing it. I'm talking about your marketing—specifically your website, your social media, your emails, all your intake forms, everything. Let me take a guess at what they probably sound like. Does this sound like you? “We have been in business for 10 years, we're insured and bonded, we love animals, we go above and beyond, we give you peace of mind, we're experienced and professional.” Yawn. Blah blah blah. Everyone can say that. It's not unique and it's not something that's going to make people stop their scroll and get their eyeballs on your content. And if you're spending time or money creating and publishing this content, then you want it to get traction. The truth is they only care about their problems. They don't care how great you are until you get their attention. It's their fears and sleepless nights worrying about how their pet is at home while they're away. And if your marketing isn't speaking directly to those pain points, then you're invisible. And I don't want you to be invisible. You work too hard and you're too amazing to be invisible. You're just another pet sitter in a sea of pet sitters. That's why they don't understand the difference between you and Rover. You end up competing on price because you haven't given them any real reason to choose you. You haven't made them feel anything. You should be making people feel something online. In this episode, I'm going to show you how to transform your marketing by creating deeper customer avatars and speaking directly to the people you want to serve more. We're going to narrow that down. I know this sounds crazy, and yes, there's still work you'll have to do after this episode,

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason and Andy welcome Mike back on the show to discuss the 1985 comedy Volunteers.  That's right, our favorite punching bag is back to discuss another lesser 1985 movie.  Sorry Mike, some day we'll get you on for a good movie.  This time, the brothers from Splash and one of their future wives join the Peace Corp in 1962 and take a trip to Asia to build a bridge.   If this seems like a lot of better movies, that is because all this has been done better before.  Yawn.  We bring the energy to the podcast though.  Enjoy.Jason, Andy and Dana will discuss a 1985 movie weekly, breaking down all the nonsense there within. The 3 hosts all work together and everyone else around them was getting really annoyed at all the movie talk, so they decided to annoy the world in podcast form.Check out previous seasons to hear them discuss 1982, 1983 & 1984 movies, as well as a full season of Love Boat episodes (if that is your thing).
