Julia Aminov & Nile Myers join me to touch on mental health from a college student and fledgling adult perspective.  Mental health affects everyone in some way or another, but more people than you would think deal with mental illnesses and struggle with their psychological well-being.  Our discussion brings to light that it's ok to admit when you're in a "funk" and gives some tips on what can help deal with these situations.  If you do have feedback or ideas for future episodes, shoot a note to [email protected] or on Twitter @ThatsSoJENK.

I touch on New Year's resolutions and a possible way to  make them easier to follow.  Then I review some of the best and worst  parts about 2018 before finally asking you (the listeners) for some feedback on the podcast.  If you do have feedback or ideas for future episodes, shoot a note to [email protected] or on Twitter @ThatsSoJENK.

I sat down with former county commissioner Penny Traina to talk about politics at the local level and the importance of voting.  If you do have feedback or ideas for future episodes, shoot a note to [email protected] or on Twitter @ThatsSoJENK.

I start by talking about "The Forgotten Rural America".  Then we transition into a panel discussion on the necessity of 4-year college degrees and rising college tuition.  We end with a new segment called "Trav's Travesties" where I go over some of the previous week's eye-catching headlines....with some humor.  If you do have feedback or ideas for future episodes, shoot a note to [email protected] or on Twitter @ThatsSoJENK.

We begin by covering the background of the podcast & why it came into existence.  I then talk about the problem most people have with "stuffitis", otherwise known as accumulating things that you don't need.  Sean Carpenter & Cameron Taylor join me to discuss whether or not there is anything to fear with Amazon's rapid growth.  If you do have feedback or ideas for future episodes, shoot a note to [email protected] or on Twitter @ThatsSoJENK.
