Episode 264: Oregon Matters & The Truth Behind Marketing Deceptions
Hello folks, thanks for joining me on this journey. In this episode, we're going to discuss a few things that have been bothering me lately.
The Deceptive Marketing Behind Anti-Germ WipesDid you know that those germ-killing wipes at grocery stores aren't primarily for hygiene? Shocking, right? Their main purpose is marketing. Observing human behavior at supermarkets has taught me a lot about our habits. While many frantically clean their cart handles, they often forget about the countless hands that have touched the produce or the loaf of bread they pick up. The real reason stores offer these wipes? To show they care about your health. But in reality, it's all a marketing ploy.
The Bizarre Trend of "Hunkering Down"Have you heard about the "hunkering down" trend? It's this belief that if you squat behind a door and declare you're "hunkered down", authorities can't enter your property for at least 24 hours. Sounds absurd, right? Yet, I've overheard this advice multiple times in public. Is this just a Salem thing or is it more widespread?
Remember, it's not about the words we use, but the actions we take. Until next time, this is Earnest, signing off.
You can go to my website - https://theearnestmannshow.com - to listen to this, or any of my many other episodes. Engage me and other listeners by leaving a comment, and/or you can reach out to me personally, via my website's contact page.
My website is a work in progress, I update its content as time allows as I am a just a one "Mann" show - ha ha, so check for new things periodically, you will find interesting and entertaining things there.
Please consider, that by visiting the website and supporting this show, you're supporting an actual person, not some mega corporation, that wouldn't know human compassion if it hit them over the head!
Perhaps most importantly, by leaving a comment after you listen to an episode, your opinion or advice may help another person in this world more than you know, and I'm not kidding, I have seen it time and again, so leave a comment, and maybe change a person's life for the better! Take care - Earnest
