Happy Life Studios Podcast

You need to see the movie and you need to listen to this episode. I mean, I didn't want to see it, but Tony dragged me to a what I thought was going to be a boring movie, and less than 2 hours later I came out a changed man. In fact, I came to realize, that Mr. Rogers Neighborhood and Happy Life Studios have a lot in common. A huge thank you to James Kocian, for the use of his song "TEDish". Check...

"I have an idea. I thought we could start our own religion and this is what we would do..." You'll have to procure some pretty uncomfortable wooden benches though.

It all started with a middle school girl and her Frisbee. In this episode we give a living example of what we talked about in the previous 2 podcasts.

"The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people." - Martin Luther King Jr. Sometimes silence, not speaking for what you think is right, is actually standing up for the wrong thing. www.

If you could be anyone in the history of the world who would you choose and why? I never would've picked or even thought about the people I talk about in this episode until I recently saw a few movies that changed everything for me. We used excerpts "The Greatest Show intro" from The Greatest Showman and "The Coronation of Aragorn" from The Lord Of The Rings. We don't own the rights to either. I'd...

How do you get along with your siblings? Have they ever backed you in to a corner? In this episode I am actually interviewed by...my sister. Which is quite fitting since she makes me happy. She asks some pretty good questions. Some surprised me, some made me a little uncomfortable and some even made me cry. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, isn't that what sisters and brothers always do? The songs...

"The wrong man. In the wrong place. At the right time." Is this a Wikiquote for Good Morning Vietnam or Happy Life Studios? Listen and see, maybe it's both.

Not only were we meant to interact with God the same way we interact with each other, but it's what God desired when He made Adam and Eve in the first place. God wants to be a part of our everyday life, not just the big moments. Not only does Christianese/weird things Christians say separate us from the very people we were meant to help, it also separates us from the very people we are supposed to...

"Indeed". We only say it once a year. Why and why does it matter? Listen and find out. Words do matter. If you think about it, they are the actually the medium God used to create the world.

I've listed their titles and the YouTube channels they're from below; Shoot Christians Say www.youtube.com/channel/UC310aJFjr6Gn9mGZjMZ2VTQ W...

Happy International Day of Happiness! You know, just like I needed a chiropractor to adjust my back this week, eventually we all need someone, to help us get our Happy back into alignment.
