Welcome back to The Weekly Bark. In this episode, we dive deep into two impactful articles that recently grabbed headlines and shed light on critical societal issues.
In the first segment, we explore the alarming truth behind the article "Americans are Lonely, and it's Killing Us." Loneliness is not just a fleeting emotion; it has far-reaching implications for our health. Join us as we uncover statistics revealing the prevalence of loneliness among different age groups and demographics.
Transitioning to our second topic, we tackle the sobering report titled "Tennessee Among Top Child Suicide Rates Nationally." The findings from the Tennessee Commission of Child and Youth are shocking and demand our attention. Discover the staggering statistics on poor mental health among students, especially high school girls, and the concerning rise in non-suicidal self-harm and suicidal ideation. This segment delves into the broader implications and the urgent need for collective efforts to address the mental health crisis facing our youth.
Join us on this journey of exploration, awareness, and conversation. Grab your coffee, sit back, and let's navigate these crucial issues together on The Weekly Bark.

In this Episode we had my friend and colleague, William Kamffer, back on the podcast to discuss his journey from being a preaching leader of his church to his eventual non-belief in God, and leaving the church all together. I also discuss my similar experience, but how in my end result I ended up back in church. We share two perspectives on the same topic, and I learned a lot from his point of view.
The Weekly Bark is inspired by Ecclesiastes 9:4 where it states “Anyone who is among the living has hope —even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!” So while I am alive I wish to spread positivity to the world and celebrate other people who are doing that as well.

In this Episode we talk with Amanda from Amanda Quotidian Books. She is an avid reader who has read over 3000+ books and has chronicled that adventure on her BookTube Channel where she takes part in Youtube “book” community where she discusses her readings and gives honest reviews of the books she has read. Her channel has over 4000 subscribers and she is also followed by 900 people on GoodReads. She is currently on pace to read over 100 books a year and uses her social media accounts to detail those accomplishments by giving her thoughts and insights on the books she is currently reading, has read, wants to read, or why she will not read certain books. She is a wonderful fellow “cyborg” and it was my absolute pleasure to sit down and speak with her.

What does Nest Mattresses and Bedding and Elephant Hard Seltzer have in common? Seizing an opportunity. I had the privilege this week to meet two of the men behind these companies and they had very similar stories. I also discuss some of the concepts from Malcolm Gladwell's book "Outliers" and what are some of the traits needed to get ahead in life.

In episode 5 we explore the meditative experience of hanging out on the Colorado river and Lake Havasu. I read the poem by Langston Hughes "Negro Speaks of Rivers". I explore how water is a peaceful and restful place reminiscing about surfing, meditation and how perspectives can be changed. I also salute the hero of the week Chris Perez who gave one of his kidneys to a complete stranger to save this man from dialysis the rest of his life.

Here in Episode 4 I am trying to work out if kindness has really left the building or not, or if it has just gone under reported in 2022. I tell stories about why I no longer do current events projects as an assignment with my classes, but rather do "What's Right in the World Today" projects. I end this podcast talking about why I think that forgiveness is more important than an apology.
