Ben is back and this week we’re talking about the challenges of “keeping up with the Joneses” (or comparing yourself to others).
But first, we do some follow-up from Episode 35: we've finished "Making a Murderer," so we spend some time sharing our thoughts on that show (spoiler-alert from minutes 2:45-13:55!) and we revisit registries + thank you notes by discussing some listener feedback on these two subjects. Then, in the second half of the show, we talk about how big life decisions can be influenced by what your peers and friends are doing, why it may be tempting to measure yourself against those in similar life stages, the potential pitfalls of comparison, and for those who need it, ways to avoid playing the comparison game. You can listen below OR by downloading and/or subscribing in iTunes or Stitcher (be sure you search "Starr Struck Radio").
Here are the links mentioned in the show:

Soooo I was wrapped up in the Making a Murderer craze too... and like MC read a bunch of articles online, and was still convinced Avery and Dassey were not guilty. UNTIL I listened to a series of podcasts done by one of the reporters who originally covered the case, Dan O'Donnell (he's the radio guy who "breaks" the verdict is in on the Netflix series). It's called Rebutting a Murderer. Anyway, he presents a lot of the omitted info in a very compelling manner, that leaves me thinking it maybe could have been Avery (more than anything I've ready online -- maybe it just goes to show audio and video are more compelling mediums than print/text). Here's the first episode. (I don't think it's on iTunes). http://www.newstalk1130.com/onair/common-sense-central-37717/rebutting-a-murderer-episode-1-14260554/ Comments are closed.
