Lacking Life Skills?: Episode 922

Things your grandma and grandpa should have taught you, plus having patience for God’s plan, and what “soft” skills do you need to succeed?   

Featured musical artist: Ginny Owens

Roundtable: Adulting Know-How You Should Learn

Do you know how to sew a button? Change a tire? Cook a roast? Make a budget? Sure, you’ve mastered Instagram and Monster Hunter Wilds, but those skills won’t help you when you have to host a dinner party, write a thank-you note or negotiate a car sale. Some life skills seem to be relics of the past, but there are useful things that our grandparents and parents learned that perhaps got lost in translation when they came to us. Our “seasoned” guests share some basic life skills that have proved immensely useful in adulthood — and how you can learn them yourself. Get ready to take notes, because things are about to get real.
