Good to be Alive! Show

It's Good to be Alive! when you discover a 'space object' that landed in a Minnesota cornfield.  

Yeah, speaking of cornfields, I know our Dad Jokes are pretty corny ... but once in a while there's one where you go, "that's pretty good."  Just keep listening.  Please.  

It's National Nut Day and you can take that any way you'd like to.

Hailing from Chicagoland (and The Sip Club at Panera Bread this afternoon) we have Pastor, Comedian and Author, Chris Wineland on the Show.

Chris is an award-winning comedian with over 17 years working in the entertainment industry and ministry.

He’s gained over 10 million views online and has performed, spoken and preached globally.  

His career began writing for late night shows, and grew into co-hosting national radio shows and TV shows.  He’s also produced shows that have reached millions … all while building his own very funny and successful personal brand along the way.  

Chris was recently Voted Christian Comedian of the Year.  It takes a lot of talent and creativity to keep it clean and appeal to a lot of different people.  Nice work Chris … we so much appreciate what you do!

Side note here...if anyone tuning in works with the City of Chicago...let's get Chris in there ASAP to 'work off' some parking tickets. 

How about this for a resume … 
-As seen on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (he’s written jokes for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon - no doubt making Jimmy look really funny) 
-He’s premiered on Hulu, Dry Bar Comedy, ABC & NBC Shows, SiriusXM … and the list goes on.

It's Good to be Alive! when you're a bear getting free honey ... in a library!    

Here is an Unconventional Observation of Hacking the Anxiety Industrial Complex from an OCD perspective.  I’ve got a bit of a unique perspective here.  

... take off all of your shoelaces and wash them.  Then, put them back on your shoes.  

Sometimes, most of the time, OCD makes complete sense to me!

It's Good to be Alive! when you're laughing!  Taken right out of Caroline Leaf's book titled, Who Switched off My Brain, according to her research, laughing 100 to 200 times a day is equal to 10 minutes of rowing or jogging!  

Having fun through play and laughter is the cheapest, easiest and most effective way to control toxic thoughts and emotions and their toxic stress reaction.  It rejuvenates the mind, body and spirit and gets positive emotions flowing.  Smile - this is the beginning of laughter.  When you hear laughter, gravitate toward it and let it wash all over you.  The brain science of laughter is that it expands - the more you get, the more you want and, believe me, the more we all need!

Join my super terrific (and very funny) friend Doug Lane, with Comedienne Kim Cottrell, as we discuss how to develop a dryer with a 'cat release.' I know what you're thinking, "golden, I'm going to take that." Nope, we have it copy written simply by talking about it on Plauzzable. I'm pretty that's how it works legally.

Come check out the Show on https://plauzzable.com/comedian/Tim-Long

We're live on Plauzzable.com every Monday at 4pm Pacific Standard Time. It's Improv Interviewing and you can join in on the conversation.

See you there!

It's Good to be Alive! when you can celebrate International Moment of Frustration Scream Day.   Ever felt like you were one spilled coffee away from losing it? Not just annoyed—but ready to yell into a pillow, a wall, maybe the sky? 

There’s a day for that, it's today, and it doesn’t involve breathing exercises or polite journaling.

It’s called International Moment of Frustration Scream Day, and it’s exactly what it sounds like. People across the globe pause, step outside, and just scream. 

One long, full-volume, stress-blasting shout into the open air. It’s raw, a little ridiculous, and somehow… satisfying.

This isn’t just noise—it’s a shared release. The beauty of it lies in how simple and strange it feels. No hashtags, no pressure to look good doing it. 

Just your voice, your breath, and a few seconds of pure sound.

It reminds you that you’re not the only one carrying stress like a sack of bricks. Others are yelling too. 

And maybe, in those thirty wild seconds, frustration turns into laughter. Not because life got easier, but because you finally let it out.  

Here is the 'Having Fun with Anxiety' tip of the day ... live in day-tight compartments.  This is a strategy developed by Sir William Osler.
