The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 190

from Arroe Collins Forest Stories · host Arroe Collins

Was listening to the Slow Burn podcast season one the other day. I couldn't believe how divided so many people were. No matter how much Watergate evidence was present many of us as well as our parents took sides. But we got back on our feet and came back together. What about the War Between The States? The Civil War! Somehow we got back on our feet. My Mother always reminded me of what life was like in America during World War II. She worked whatever job she could get. The men were at war. Someone had to keep this nation on its feet. Which brings me to a different podcast I heard. The host lightly salted the air with a simple thought, "The only despair this current generation knows is how bad the WiFi is and how dare Disney charge us for their app." We keep hearing about how divided we are. It's been labeled fake news. It actually depends on which news service you check in with. On this podcast I talk about what it's like to sit in a forest with no internet, newspaper or radio. My only purpose was to listen. On the page I wrote, "What would happen if they stopped talking about religion and politics on television?" I remember radio station program director's telling me to never bring up either subject on the show, "Listeners will instantly tune out and probably never come back. You had that one chance to make a connection and the choice became a bad decision." Look at talk radio today. Podcasting is no different. I loved how the nation got back up on its feet last week when it was announced the actors that brought us Friends are going to reunite on HBO. People got back on their feet when Al Pachino debuted on Amazon Prime in The Hunters. But the very second something happens or someone brings up community or local trust and faith, too many are sitting back down." It happens in church too! Then the preacher man roars "Get on your feet! Don't anyone leave! Get up!" Maybe that day in the forest in February of this year is why this episode of the podcast exists. We need to have a lot more people shouting, "Get up! Lets stand together! Lets move forward!"
