Ed the Sock (and Friends)

The Barbie movie, of all things, deals with the fact that choices are tradeoffs. This inspired thoughts.

Dating "litmus tests" are heavily debated, but what can they tell you, and how can you navigate them? Especially when the Barbie movie is the most recent one!

And just as importantly, what is it NOT!

The worst moment in your life can be your superhero origin story! Stewart Reynolds was at the end of his financial and emotional rope. His business had failed. His house was about to be repossessed. But the internet sensation known as @Brittlestar found his second wind and rose from the ashes to build a hugely successful international brand. Liana talks with Stewart about how to bounce back from major life disappointments.

Yet another pop-culture icon dragged into the culture war. Why are people on the Right and Left losing their minds over the Margot Robbie movie??

He's a TV star in Canada and the USA, a regular cast member on Disney+ series "The Mandalorian" - but Paul Sun-Hyung Lee has had his share of rejection. All actors do.

We all face rejection. It hurts. Paul helps us understand how to deal with rejection and push forward to achieve success!

We all know the 'nice guy' who seems agreeable to everything with a smile on his face - who then one day explodes with rage. 

Slavery in the US benefited the slaves - just ask Florida's new school curriculum!  Hollywood strike continues as studios pull shenanigans! Who stunk up the studio with a banana peel? Also - was Ed cheated by a chipmunk hunter? Liana and Ed give you their unique perspectives on news & events...and nonsense.

Ignoring negatives isn't being positive! Sometimes, it's important to 'sweat the small stuff' before it grows to epic proportions. Liana talks to author, counselor and mental health educator Dale Curd (DaleCurd.com) about disarming big problems while they are still small.

Battles. Big and small, life is full of them. Or at least, the opportunity for them. How do you choose which battles to fight and which to walk away from?
