Should've Known Better

"Good news is rare these days, and every glittering ounce of it should be cherished and hoarded and worshipped and fondled like a priceless diamond."

Hunter S Thompson

Is too much news a question we should ask ourselves?

“They know enough who know how to learn”

 Henry Adams

Learning as we all have figured out at some point or another is an ongoing process. This week on the podcast we took it back to when we started to understand that bad grades and poor attendance had an impact on more than just having to explain yourself to the principle

Jason , Mark and Micheal dodge between homework, accelerated learning, skipping grades, extra curricular activities, post secondary and collage, how do we all “learn” and much more.

Join us as we ask our favorite question and dig deep to see if we should’ve known better?

"When I tried to hit puberty, I swung and missed"

Bo Burnham 

Puberty sucks. A phase you have no control over happening to you that you don't understand all while having to go through it in front of your parents/parental figure. 

Thats why on this weeks episode we decided to dissect it with a birds eye view with a better mental state that isn't peppered with an over abundance of hormones. 

This week Jason, Mark and Micheal go over oily skin, zits, our voices changing, body hair, wet dreams, emotional withdraw, puberty with you parents involved and many more things that we never planned for.

“Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.”― Jack Kerouac

Jack, you could not have said it better. Micheal is also a huge Kerouac fan so there’s some biased involved but none the less, he proves a point, get out and see the world!!! 

This week, Micheal, Jason and Mark review some of their most memorable trips (good and bad), the annoying aspects of airports and customs, do we travel in style or can we rough it out of a back pack, luggage and packing styles, getting used to the language barrier in a new country, heading to the hot spots or asking the locals where to go and many more rants and ravings.

"Parents just don't understand" 

The fresh Prince 

..Or is it that while growing up children eventually understand and experience things like sacrifice, loss, bliss, responsibility and an array of other relatable moments that give us the ability to look at our parents with more understanding and patience because some of those pre-mentioned lessons were done to make sure we were raised well. We can't paint all scenarios like that with child/parent relationships but its one of the many things Jason, Mark and Micheal talked about this week.

Divorce vs still married, which parent are you like more, your first childhood memory of your parents, lessons they taught us that we will use to this day, the drug/sex/relationship talk and lots more were thrown around the living room this week. Did we stick to the list? NOPE!

“Don’t say anything online that you wouldn’t want plastered on a billboard with your face on it"

Erin Bury

Social media. Its been a blessing and curse since its inception roughly 15 years ago. Constant updates keep one in the loop at any time of day while at the same time people are more and more “unplugging” and changing their mind about how they are perceived online. 

This week on Should’ve Known Better Jason, Micheal and Mark share their opinions on myspace ( their first social media platform if you can remember that far back ) , The Big 4 ( Facebook, Snap Chat , Instagram and Twitter) addiction, manners and online discourse, privacy, terms and conditions and the future of social media in our lives today and more.

Considering we're too old to have grown up with it in our teens we decided to look to the youth of today as well as ourselves and advise on how we might have dealt with it if we were 16 now and see if we should’ve known better.

“Ask not what you can do for your country. Ask what’s for lunch.”

Orson Welles

Thanks Orson, couldn't not have said it better ourselves. But we'll try. 

I'm sure their are more important questions out there but for this episode , food is all we care about. Food brings people together, it breaks down barriers and is one of the most known vehicles when it comes to finding out who someone is.  

This week Jason , Mark and Micheal adventure back in time to visit their gastrnomic pasts and see what they have learned about food over time, what they like to cook , cheat meals , proper diet and calorie counting, what they hated when they were kids and can they eat it now, late night cravings and stoner food and tons more that we'd rather have you listen to then bore you hear with the write up!

Find out if 1,2 or all 3 of them know any better now and should they have known better then.
