We discuss how and why we might look for pockets of wasted time (and talk

about some wasted time we uncovered ourselves.) We also suggest an easy step

to lower anticipatory anxiety, a simple hack for avoiding waste, and discuss a

listener’s question about how her Upholder son should spend his time.
