115 Preamble Series (1of6): A More Perfect Union

Programming Note: starting next week, we’ll begin releasing episodes on Wednesdays (instead of Tuesdays).

NOTE for anyone listening in the future who won't know what "the fly" is that we're talking about. On 10/7/20, during the Vice Presidential debate, a fly landed on Mike Pence's hair and stayed there for 2 minutes and 9 seconds while everyone watching went nuts on social media. Jokes about: flies on s***, on corpses, on being a sign of the devil, and more. It was probably a ‘you had to be there’ moment, but trust us, it was a hoot. Just another absurdity in the year that is/was 2020.

A overview of what gets discussed in this episode:

  • weird source of stress-relief for Siena

  • how the Preamble to the Constitution can help you flatten the COVID curve:

  • reciting the Preamble takes about 20 seconds (the recommended time to scrub with soap, in order to wash your hands effectively)

  • E Pluribus Unum = Out of Many, One

  • the beautiful and amazing diversity of We The People

  • the precious thing we all have in common, which is

  • the desire to live a fulfilled life

  • why “just be yourself” can make you feel worse

  • how tension between things is at the heart of everything

  • “Please Believe” is the song that closes this episode; it’s on
