What if we didn't have to wait for tragedy in order to be kind? What if there was no WAY to kindness, but rather, kindness WAS the way? That's what we're talking about in today's GLP Riff, inspired by an awakening during a Broadway show about a powerful true-life story from the town of Gander, Newfoundland. And, be sure to tune in for today's Good Life Science Update, too. We're diving into some new research that shows something just a tiny bit terrifying about how even having a silent smartphone in the room with you might affect your ability to think and perform at the top of your game. For those who want to go deeper, here's a link to the research cited.

  • Welcome, welcome, welcome to this week's new blended format for our second show of the week.

  • As you know, our Monday shows are always full length, in depth conversations with awesome human beings.

  • And we've started to have a little bit of fun with this complimentary show by playing with some different formats and bringing you some new things.

  • This week we still have our traditional riff, and the idea behind the riff this week is around kindness in the world today, and we're also exploring new and different segments.

  • Last week we started with a new good life science update, and today we will also bring you a good life science update.

  • And be sure to stay tuned for future episodes where we will start to play with some other ideas and always trying to shake things up a little bit, try new things and give you more of what will help you live a really good life.

  • So we're diving in today with conversations around humanity, kindness, and on the science side of things, how simply having a smartphone in the room with you may just make you a little bit dumber.

  • On to our show.

  • So as I sit here and record this, just a few days ago, I actually went to a Broadway show, and I've been going to shows more lately.

  • It's kind of funny, you know, I'm a new yorker, so we are.

  • We are in the town that is sort of the heartbeat for plays and shows and musicals.

  • I've never been much of a musical person, oddly, a lot of my friends are very much in.

  • In the theater, actually have performed on stage, sung and dance on Broadway many times.

  • And it's never quite grabbed me.

  • But I've started revisiting shows.

  • I went to Hamilton not too long ago.

  • Mine was blown, absolutely blown by the musicality and the sets.

  • And I went to a show over the weekend, and the name of that show is come from away.

  • And I went in, you know, it's one of these shows that has become really hot, and I was expecting something fun and interesting and great music.

  • What I wasn't expecting was that about halfway through through, I got a lump in my throat and my heart was just kind of bursting and I was kind of holding back and trying to hold it together.
