All this overload of information on the virus is stressful.  The topic just keeps on injecting itself into our everyday living.  The continues hit on our economy is becoming more scary than the actual virus.   Now it's the anxiety that is sweeping the nation. #society #culture #philosophy #rehash #twr #thisweeksrehash #earlfrancis #podcast #journal #personal #life #pandemic #an...

Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face - Mike Tyson.    Solid philosophy from one of the worlds greatest boxers.  How do you react when situations change all of a sudden, when things do not go as planned?  How do you deal with bad news?  What do you when life throws you a curve ball? #society #culture #philosophy #rehash #twr #thisweeksrehash #earlfran...

NBA players voluntarily took a 24 shot clock violation as a salute to Kobe's death.  People wore their number 24 jerseys and headed to Staple Center to gather and mourn his death as a community.   Kobe's death reminds us to appreciate every moment of our 24 hours, for we'll never know when our shot clock is up.  #society #culture #philosophy #rehash #twr #thisweeksrehash #earlfranci...

My sincere gratitude to those who have listened in.  It has been a year since I started with Anchor.  Thank you.

Forget about the dead rising back to life,  dealing with the living dead is much more frustrating!   Drug addiction and mental illness  are just political issues until it hits closer to home.   How do you deal with an addict when they become a menace to the community?  Police do not and can not help, that's for sure.  We actually have laws that prevent authoritie...

Is there actually a good deed we do that is solely for the benefit of others?  Doesn't the mere fact that we felt good is already a reward itself?
