It feels like an 'I told ya so' moment for Jeremy Bradley on the podcast this week. Earlier this month he commented on how Americans are encouraged by their political leaders to 'fight, fight, fight' and then as soon as there's another attempt to assassinate Donald Trump, there are calls for people to chill out and settle down. (Though a few days later they're leading the chants again, but whatevs.) As JB previously noted -- and does again today -- the whole mindset of an American political campaign is about the fight-fight-fight. JB draws the comparisons between Canadian and American mentalities and vast differences in civility in the respective countries.

Politics, politics, politics. Enough, enough, enough - Episode 528 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

hace 4 días30:47

30:47

Everywhere you go people are discussing politics. It's understandable given what's happening in the world (especially the United States). But for Jeremy Bradley, who's never participated in nor had an interest in politics, it's getting to be a bit much. JB explains how, as a Canadian, he watches from the sidelines people having emotionally -- and sometimes violently -- charged confrontations about politics in the U.S. He talks about how Canadians feel about politicians and politics and it's vastly different than with Americans. (Shocker, right?) "We've never had anyone throwing mashed potatoes at someone at Christmas because of a political argument," JB says.…

It doesn't matter how my relationship works - Episode 527 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 31:32

hace 11 días31:32

31:32

Relationships are always fun to discuss because you learn about how couples live and either relate to them or secretly think to yourself, "Wow, my situation is so much better." Jeremy Bradley talks about giving relationship advice when there isn't a definitive way that unions should work. He says people ask about his marriage and try to compare the setup to their own situation, though he reminds them everybody is different. Later, he addresses a common relationship question that he thinks is a setup for drama.…

Scammers, scammers, everywhere - Episode 526 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

hace 18 días30:47

30:47

Telemarketers, spammers, texters -- all out to scam you. But do you fall for it? Or have you caught onto their tricks? Calling you from overseas, mispronouncing your simple name, asking for details about your account: do you give in? Jeremy Bradley questions why people are so easily swayed when contacted out of the blue. JB notes how when customers call into a company for their product or service, customers have to provide excessive information to verify it's legitimately their account. Why don't people on the receiving end of unsolicited calls put those same protections in place for themselves? Later, JB talks about scammers who've tried to take advantage of his companies.…

Read a damn book - Episode 525 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

hace 24 días30:47

30:47

People love to read but it's toxic stuff on social media that makes them feel insecure, hate filled, depressed, lonely -- and everything else that screws with their mental health. Jeremy Bradley reflects on a time when kids were encouraged to read books and were excited to dive into the pages of a fascinating story. As adults -- and even with kids today -- not so much. Later, JB talks about odd behavior with people on social media. He wonders how trolling online and randomly posting nasty comments to pages is entertaining for people. JB shares a story from his e-commerce store where the comments section is out of control for absolutely no reason.…

Another reality check for "influencers" - Episode 524 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 35:25

hace 5 weeks35:25

35:25

Jeremy Bradley talks to "influencers" and encourages them to view their 15 minutes of fame as just that: fleeting and temporary. Many people with a social media platform see the likes, clicks and cash now but is it something sustainable for the rest of their life? JB talks about his retirement from a successful radio career and how he can look at the current generation of broadcasters (podcasters, YouTubers, TikTokers, etc.) and wonders if most of them have figured out the long-term business side of their content offerings. Sure, free stuff and some money now are great, but will it still be lucrative in 10 years? And can they (read as: willing to) get a "regular" job after?…

Content is king, don't be a joker - Episode 523 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 37:35

hace 6 weeks37:35

37:35

Content is king. That's an old saying but it's more relevant than ever thanks to today's social media world. Jeremy Bradley talks about his early days in internet radio that later turned into a syndicated radio company, producing audio programming for outlets around the world. JB encourages people who want to start creating (podcast, YouTube, etc.) to think about their content before launching a platform. It's one thing to say, "I want to do a podcast" or "I want to write a book" but there's a helluva lotta planning before anything should launch.…

Can you feel the love tonight... and every other day in your relationship? - Episode 522 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

hace 7 weeks30:47

30:47

It's the day you're going to see social media pages full of flowers, romantic dinners and paragraphs of people professing their love. And it makes Jeremy Bradley want to puke. JB talks about how Valentine's Day went from being a commercial "holiday" to now being a show for social media where people broadcast the day with their partner. (Remember, your partner gave you those flowers today because it's kind of expected. Ditto on the "romantic" dinner.) JB, who's been married for several years, says every day is like Valentine's Day in his relationship because they constantly go for dinners and are together all the time. "People ask why I never post about how much I love him," JB says. "Because I talk to him and don't need to communicate with him publicly on social media. I don't need that attention and validation from the public."…

MORE Customer service ain't what it used to be - Episode 521 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

hace 8 weeks30:47

30:47

Is it getting worse? Is the quality of customer service at an all-time low? And the new glammed-up way of referring to it as "customer experience" isn't helping most companies. Jeremy Bradley talks about the frustration of big businesses moving away from actual human contact and interaction, and relying more and more on technology to assist customers. Gone are the days of calling an 800-number and having your problem resolved in minutes. Now, it's chat bots and spotty English, irrelevant template replies and plenty of "no"s and "I'll transfer you"s. JB reflects on his time working in customer service and how employees had to own each interaction... because it was their job.…

Putting the 'fun' in funerals - Episode 520 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

hace 9 weeks30:47

30:47

Nobody wants to think about death but it's something that's, well, inevitable. Jeremy Bradley talks about his thoughts on funerals as various family members are battling illness. He shares stories about recent family funerals and how relatives felt about the departed and what it's made them think about life and death. Later, JB talks about a time when he couldn't stop saying the wrong thing at a funeral. He recognized his misstep in the moment, told himself to correct his wording, but every time -- wrong, wrong, wrong.…

Is family overrated? - Episode 519 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 35:33

hace 10 weeks35:33

35:33

The old saying is "blood is thicker than water." It's often used to declare that family is -- or should be, at least -- the most important thing in a person's life. But what if it's not? Should someone feel bad about that? Or is it better not to have family in your life? Jeremy Bradley talks about how the closeness of families during the holiday season -- especially broadcast on social media -- seems to be meant to make you feel bad if you don't have the closeness that others do. JB explains why he doesn't buy into that and how not being close with family is OK. Later, he shares about how critical opinions from parents drove him away from family as he got older.…

Is education overrated? - Episode 518 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 38:04

hace 11 weeks38:04

38:04

There's so much emphasis on education but it's such a broad term that we need to take a step back on what people, namely kids, are learning. Jeremy Bradley, who has a family full of teachers, looks back at his elementary school through high school years and comments about what he learned and where it's got him in life. For instance, JB talks about his friend graduating high school without knowing the spelling of basic words but had to spend three years studying Shakespeare and other stuff she's never used in the 25 years since graduating.…

Just some middle-aged co-workers discussing porn - Episode 517 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 36:09

hace 12 weeks36:09

36:09

Do you remember the first time you saw porn? Or the bigger question is what did/do you consider porn? Jeremy Bradley talks about how his opinions on nudity have changed with age. As he's matured, social media platforms -- ahem, Meta -- seem to be slow on their stance on "nudity" and "sexual activity." Moreover, says JB, the social media giant doesn't even have the same definition of "nudity" as a basic dictionary. Also, JB opens up about his first experiences seeing nudity and porn as a teen.…

Some good ol' family gossip after the holidays - Episode 516 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

hace 13 weeks30:47

30:47

A new year but same ol' family drama during the holidays. Jeremy Bradley talks about the whispering and gossip at family gatherings and how it's enjoyable to trash-talk relatives with other relatives. It ends up almost being a game of telephone when someone opens up as you sit beside them and you leave the room and tell someone else what you just heard and they tell someone and so on and so on. When there are competitive siblings raising kids, it's delicious to hear how they try to one-up each other to each other and on the side with other relatives.…

A new year but the same old crap or a new outlook? - Episode 515 - The Scribble with Jeremy Bradley 30:47

It's a new year and people seem to think all of their problems from the past 12 months will suddenly go away simply because the calendar turns a new page. Who are they trying to kid? Jeremy Bradley talks about his unique way to celebrate the year behind him. It's a moment of reflection to have some laughs about what happened. Let's be honest, everything in your life on Tuesday, Dec. 31, will follow you into Wednesday, Jan. 1; the new year doesn't change your life.…
