I have recently, or a long time ago, started to reflect on the fact that h is a really important letter. But precisely stuff that changes the meaning of things, that changes the understanding and judgment of what you hear or read, which then when you listen is silent, it makes little difference, but you can feel in the face whether someone is using the "H" or not in the right place and at the right time. There's no need for me to explain more, in more detail, because I'm talking about all those situations in which we think the verb to have should be used in the present tense which requires the "H" and all those times in which we abbreviate an or which instead doesn't require it, and all other situations of the same kind. A bit like the "e" with or without an accent, come on.

I have asked myself several times if there is a way to get a move on when you don't feel like it, I have also done more than a few episodes on the desire to do things, perhaps criticizing others but I admit that I too am not a proud representative of doing things in advance . In short, I have asked myself several times how to move before it is too late or at least before we feel it is too late.

There are stories that freak me out. Not the great magician, the magic meant as a lump in the throat. Those things that you can't digest, that create digestive dysfunctions that you would like to be able to eliminate, but since you can't, your body reacts in another way, perhaps by crying or with an upset stomach or with sensations that you can hardly explain.

For me, leading the way has always been a fundamental criterion of living the day. Maybe it's because I come from places where even 50km away you are a neighbour, not like in big cities where 500m can cause a change in time zone due to traffic and geographical positions and neighborhood identity. Where I come from, 50km is the route you could take to have an aperitif with friends or a simple place of work that wouldn't be considered off-site. Where I come from you move from one province to another a bit like going to the square in your town, in fact, it's easier to go for a tour in a nearby province rather than going to the square. Which then we say square, because the center where I come from is a relative concept and can only be associated with the capitals and in the end, in the centre, you never go there, but you always go there, just that you go to another centre.

I have recently, yes sometimes it takes me a while too, understood, or rather received an epiphany, an epiphany. Which isn't the one that all the holidays take away, that we've forgotten about it for this year and we'll talk about it again next year. I had an epiphany regarding something that I have carried with me all my life, I explained it in a hundred different ways, I even wrote about it as if it were, and I am convinced that it is, a fundamental right of the human being. I had a revelation about the dream.

When I was younger I didn't have much difficulty distinguishing left and right, I wasn't one of those who had to look at their hands to understand which side was on which side was which. And of what I was, and am, one of those who started at a disadvantage because I was damascan, I remember well the solitary neuron that got stuck in listening to those who were referring to one and only one right hand, which however for me was the dumb hand of the two and incapable of making himself useful to the system.

We've been here for a while now telling ourselves what problems we can have if we dedicate ourselves to anything but the order of what concerns ourselves. The dishes that need to be washed more than daily that generate an order of which we are natural bearers or enemies. The clothes that are periodically fundamental that precede many different phases of order and attention, which allow us to carry out reflection and analysis that mark our life, our choices and our evolutions. But it is the floors that allow us to see the overall sense of energies scattered throughout the house. The general order of things. The order acquired by the lifestyle.

Once they called me to propose that I end up behind a mixer as an engineer. I was washing clothes and I got particularly nervous because in reality I wanted to end up in front of the mixer, on stage, singing and playing like any teenager who wants to tell a little about himself and who has been lucky enough to have been sent by a piano teacher since he was 6 years old. A teacher who slapped him on the back of the head every time he went out of tune, which may have been the cause of my imbecility. But beyond the specific story, let's try to imagine any teenager who accidentally found himself holding a €19.90 guitar bought on offer, or let's extend it to those who began their rhythmic studies with the pots that Mastrota sold on TV. We also extend to those who sing in the shower using shampoo as a microphone.

Each of us undoubtedly has different needs throughout our lives and even during every single day. This often translates into trying to share one's needs and trying to understand those of others, often. Not always though Sometimes our need consists precisely in not worrying about the needs of others and sometimes in not giving weight to our own.

We have been in doubt about what respect means for too long now. Using the words Time and Respect in the same sentence is not at all a random choice, especially coming from someone who is not exactly a master of punctuality and yet I believe and recognize that there are dimensions in the concept of delay that can be separated based on the effect that produces on those who are waiting.

We face things day by day that don't allow us to fully share what we think because otherwise we miss out on the possibility of realizing what we dream of because being transparent puts us out there and makes us vulnerable. Trust is the tool with which we become transparent with someone, which allows him to see us as dreamers and vulnerable, to be able to do with us what he wants, even if we trust he can only do us good. We have all experienced situations in which not everything goes as hoped and in which mistrust becomes one of the variables of the evening.

How do you get to know us? I am not who I say I am and I am not even what I think I am and I am not even what others think I am. I am not the profession I do. Before I did it I wasn't, I do it but I'm not. So what are they? Who I am? If you are looking for a word to define yourself and the word satisfies you, that's fine, but no one can tell you who you are. Nothing says everything I do.

The number 112 makes me think about how interesting the mental process through which our brain stores information is and how difficult it becomes for it to modify information rooted over time.

Having the desire to move, to feel the thoughts running, the flow of events. Having the desire to stay still while running, in the oxymoron of static nature on earth, the earth's rotation. Having the desire to run on the spot, without a place, without a destination, with your eyes fixed on an unapproachable horizon. Having the desire to look beyond the horizon to follow another, another, and another, without ever expecting the last one. Wanting to be, where it happens, when it happens, without routine. Wanting habits and routines in the flow of the unexpected, in the normality of the unpredictable. Wanting to be caught off guard, unprepared every day on time. Being organized and having the desire to disorganize to look for another anomalous order here, logical there, somewhat unknown where it happens. Being messy to leave your mark with the strangest, most unusual, unique traces, because disorder cannot be copied, emulated, repeated, not even by its creator. Being out and about, in the steppe or in the forest, with a backpack or with a vehicle, alone or in joy in company and in the project, of life, what you want, what you teach. What do you want, what do you teach, what do you desire, what do you reach on the horizon. For me, being a nomad is like this, it means studying yourself in oxymorons, paradoxes, revelations and places that are all yours in the same way. Being nomadic is not having a home but being at home everywhere. Not having a car but being able to be exactly where you want when you want it, and when you can't, with the right timing finding a way anyway. Knowing how to solve problems is a prerequisite for staying there, meeting new ones for which you don't know the solution is part of the objectives. Being weird is part of the game, sometimes you like it, sometimes you don't. The point is that no matter what happens you always have the desire to stay in a flow of flows even when you feel like you're doing nothing or that you're waiting and in a situation without physical spatial movement. But the mind is there, somewhere searching, getting curious, even in the usual place.

I was washing the dishes when I got a message, and it always takes me a while to realize that the message wasn't one of those visible on a screen. But anyway I was washing the dishes and I wanted to finish what I was doing, so I missed it. The second time it arrived I was, again, washing the dishes and it was the day after a party, that moment when cleaning takes precedence over everything.

Each sharing has its price, non-deductible and non-reducible. Every time we decide to share something it brings with it an effect on us and on others that we cannot help but take into consideration. When we are in a group of friends we can share information from our personal work life and anything else. When we share or receive shares that are emotionally relevant and it all depends on the level of trust that holds the group or the elements within it together.

We find ourselves in times of creation without having any idea of ending up in it. We have a problem with creative energy when we set a deadline and then involuntarily when the time is not right, everything we needed or wanted to create comes out. Emotional swings and particular conditions of our daily lives have an even stronger impact than we expect, but we must know how to listen to the situation.

There are parameters that for each of us have a greater meaning than the gesture itself. Perhaps connected to the meaning that that action has for us, indeed that is almost certainly the key point for an action that has great value for me and I am ready to give it the same value if done by someone else. There are many examples that can be given and everyone certainly has their own, send them to me if you want us to reflect on them. Meanwhile, I'll start with an example that for me is more decisive than others.

Some time ago I wrote, as a contribution to the research of a friend, a reflection on caring in the theatre. That time I considered the theater as a parameter to be taken care of from various points of view, with the need not to lose any of it along the way otherwise everyone would have suffered. Considering theater as a synergistic and symbiotic system and this helped me to define the meaning of care and also to give me an effective explanation for the definition of health that the World Health Organization offers us. Caring is a way of being ready to react to the needs of who or what we care for.

It's been a fundamental theme since well before Queen wrote the famous song about it. For those who work in the theater field it is one of the fundamental axioms to be able to say in some way that you brought it home. The meaning is that whatever happens we must always move forward. It always continues. How many videos can be found online of artists who continued with the show even if the power goes out, or a piece of scenography collapses, or a colleague trips. It seems inhuman, sometimes it comes very close, but ultimately it is a profound feeling of respect towards the work, towards the artistic gift that is being given.

For someone, crossing some limits could mean letting go, for someone else it could mean being able to hold back. Of course, a lot of it is connected to our fears generated by the experiences and relationships that we observe around us, but perhaps the trick can, for everyone, be to allow ourselves some different phases in which to experience ourselves in one direction and in another. other, preparing for the impact, because sometimes, it could even hurt us. However, without being afraid to experiment with an element that will be part of the fundamental baggage that we will need when we find ourselves deciding whether to take a path forward and which at a certain point we will have to deal with.

If you have at least once wondered how to push your limits, this podcast is about you. It's about all those times when you've found yourself straddling a dividing line and a vibration that starts from the soles of your feet and reaches your split ends, pushing you backwards and forwards at the same time. How you decided to follow that vibration depended on many factors, more or less controllable, but the one we least often stop to reflect on, which has the potential to knock out everyone else, is ourselves.

For a smoker, balconies have significant importance. Especially if you live in a place where smoking is not a common habit inside buildings, that is, it is prohibited in public places and even in homes, especially those of non-smokers, smoking is not allowed in the home. Then there are countries where this element does not apply, where smoking is still allowed inside rooms and offices. Then there are the times when even where it is not allowed you discover that there is someone who violates the rules and doesn't care. But you, instead, become a lover of balconies.

I liked this play on words and used it as the title of this episode. I will have to make a premise to understand it and also to discover that we are not talking about trees, or at least not directly. This premise tells the story of a series of lime trees that have become the center of a public debate to preserve a green space in the center of a city in north-eastern Italy. We don't need to know more, anyway, let's not talk about these lime trees and let's not talk about this city, but let's take the example to reflect on our way of complaining, on our way of protesting, or rather, on when.

I announced it, I continue to reflect on the generational categories that accompany us in rhetoric in every place, environment, situation, communication, universe. This is the case with boomers, with millennials, with those who come after and those who come before.

It's an important episode because the next one is an obvious celebration, but this one is a fundamental celebration. It's a bit like when you remember to celebrate someone only on their birthday or only during a specific occasion. It's like when you only remember Human Rights on World Human Rights Day, which by the way... how many people remember when it's celebrated?

It's been about a year since I started writing the lyrics for this podcast and almost by chance I'm writing this episode reflecting on the fact that in a year many things have changed in my way of podcasting, but above all in my knowledge of podcasts. Reflecting and rethinking the path taken in front of the microphone and inserting myself into editing programs and the platforms on which you can listen to me is a standby that gives me energy, that relaunches me and prepares me to continue regardless of the results. Let me explain.

There are moments that are turning points, and perhaps they are marked by something other than a mark... or by a mark itself. You see the new walls in Central America which are recognizable by a series of orange buoys interspersed with strange barbed wire, almost like a circular saw I would say. So to be a difficult, pungent, cutting turning point, that you remember, that's it.italian versionSpanish version

The series of reflections continues that lead me to try to understand what I do. Or rather, explain what I do. Because I know what I do well, and despite the fact that it might not even be your problem to know what I do, that I'm not interested in what you do, but if you explain to me what you do then I'll explain what I do.italian version ProfessioniSpanish version Professionales

Original podcast link: Ci possiamo ragionare ep95Spanish version: Modo de espera ep95Some time ago, at the top of the political debate it seemed that the only problem we are forced to face is that of migration, immigration, in short, the people arriving. In the debate, where and why this immigration comes from matters little, the only certainty is that the how disturbs us. On the right and on the left we are disturbed by the how in different ways, but we all agree that the constant journeys at sea must be changed with more functional but above all more humane solutions.

You may ask, why a round account episode in a position that is not a round account?

I don't know if by chance I'm getting carried away with these episodes dedicated to the year or to events, but they are opportunities to bring up reflections that deserve their own space and therefore, even if I'm getting carried away, I continue like this, once again that we are at episode ninety-two a terrifying chapter of our history emerges that deserves not to be forgotten and basically it is interesting that it gives us space for other new reflections, even if some of these would be nice if we didn't have to do them. '92 for us has a subtitle that describes it as made up of two surnames and a problem. The surnames are Falcone and Borsellino and the problem is the mafia.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

I like to stop and think that being citizens of the world is the solution to the presence of borders and limits in the movement of people, but then I quickly realize that it is not true that thinking this is the solution, because there are a thousand other steps to take in between , even at a short distance.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

There are two main reasons for dedicating episode 89 of this long journey to a wall, which we all know well, at least in terms of fame, of which many ignore the background that makes it one of the walls on which our history is written, that of Berlin and why, as those good in mathematics may have understood in episode 33 is that I was born in '89, the same year that the Berlin Wall stopped dividing Europe and the world in two and I was even born the same month, fourteen days later, two weeks, Thursday again.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

Since in the space and time of social media new words and slang are always born, I decided to create my own neologism, which maybe won't go anywhere and I really hope it won't be recognized, otherwise the logic of all my criticisms would be lost which I also did in this podcast. But I wanted to create a term that would allow me to summarize what I think or rather a lifestyle that I like to think is what I am living. Moreover, playing a little bit, it turned out that a word that, not even too deep down, has been with me for a while, was fine with it. This is how playing linguist comes out m.o.k.a. Which, so it doesn't come out that even I who created it don't know what it means. M.o.k.a. It stands for many horizons, kilometers and friends. It's not a pathology, it's not the nice way to describe a syndrome or a problem, it's not a social problem. Moka is what I've been doing for quite a while and explaining it every time with so many words risks becoming complex and not really offering all the nuances of the concept, so with a new term maybe I start from a level of understanding that helps me to be clearer .Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

I have never been a supporter of compromise. I find that the combination between two positions, which in the specific moment represent the antipodes of a concept, of a conflict, is the defeat of both sides and the absence of a real victory, if both sides lose it is a defeat, not a competition. A competition could also be a healthy way to discover some life experiences. Through sporting competitiveness, for example, we can discover important elements of ourselves such as motivation, commitment, overcoming one's limits and many other interesting things that are a great added value in being part of the aware adults we want to make up the world we live in, I hope. However, each competition showcases two sides of a coin, good or evil, right or wrong, dream and nightmare, which however, as in the wall of episode 89, are matters of perspectives and points of view.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

Now if we talk about fluidity it is very easy to refer to gender issues, to those who recognize themselves in one genre rather than another and to that fluid part which finds gender as an extra construct, which can be understood as superfluous or which we just can't do without it, at least that everyone can do as they wish. Fluidity, considering that I really like it as a concept applied to the genre, I like it even more as an element of science, the science of fluids precisely and perhaps because of my training which has something scientific, but it is certainly not my professional core, I find that it connects more than one might expect to the concept of gender and the dynamics of society and the context in which we live. In physics and chemistry, fluids are those pieces of matter that adapt and change according to their density and the container in which they are inserted. They will tend to occupy all the space available to them, with no difference between one limit and another.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

There are few things that deeply annoy me, one of them is inattention. However, obviously the why and how must be explained, above all because I am not exempt from being inattentive and a little distraction can happen to everyone, wait a moment though. Sometimes when I complain about the carelessness I see around me I refer to spatial awareness, a soft skill that seems particularly lost to me lately. Now, we could do a test, which works well with a podcast because even if you close your eyes for a minute, your ears still work. This test serves to get you out of your mind that you are not inattentive, it serves to allow you to become aware that we are not constantly conscious and aware of our surroundings. Let's take the test, ready? Close your eyes, I'll ask you questions and you have to answer, to yourself, so if you cheat, you know it, I won't find out, but if you cheat, the answer will be for yourself the same as having got the answer wrong, so, honestly, it's just not worth it and there's no prize up for grabs.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

I'm old inside, I'm young inside, paradoxical definitions to say I'm young or I'm old. Practically saying that we are young inside or that we are old inside we are saying the exact opposite and not only that, we are also telling our interlocutor that he is old or that he is young, too old, too young, depending on the situation. Once again it seems to me that I am speaking of racism of the ages as when I focused on the cultural generations which become an insult by leaving the personal data.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

To continue the reflection begun in the previous episode, it was necessary to praise pets. You will say, why praise pets who basically do what we want, who are dependent on us, who wouldn't live without us. Well, first of all because this is our anthropocentric way of seeing things and which always places us in a condition of superiority so as to justify our actions, much more often as stupid and inferior beings. Yes, because the truth is that we are the ones who do what animals want, that we are dependent on them and that we would not live if they weren't there. Let's face it clearly, we are perfectly domesticated to handle the needs of our animals, much more than we are trained to handle our own.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

The concept of wildlife, for everyone, I believe leads to open the drawers of memory in which the scenes of white tusk, balto, the lion king, the jungle book and another series of films and TV series are enclosed where the protagonists are animals immersed in a hostile environment, for us, natural for them. And I will tell you that in the end it is not even too bad for a reference. We can say that in fact the representation of the context, in these films, is also correct, but heck, really we imagine that in the wild boars go for a walk with lions, wolves raise children, wolves know where to find a pharmacy ? That is, I hope we can all agree that reality is not like that and that these are not wildlife films, they are rather representations of human beings in the form of a wild animal a or b and that in that particular story it lives in a context wild. Here, I believe that this second passage, the humanization of the animal character, is not exactly clear and I think it has helped us believe that it is really possible to meet a wild boar together with a lion, not while one feeds on the other, which a wolf is really able to recover a drug, which is a true but legendary story and above all it was a dog, not a wolf, the Russian goose said that he didn't even know what it was, right?Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

A full day that we normally call full, because using the Italian word disgusts us, or rather, it makes us feel that the fullness of the day is less legitimate or boh, but oh well, it's not a standby on neologisms and English terms, it's on the days full, then if you want to define them full, go ahead, as long as we understand each other. A busy day is a day when you don't have time to do anything other than within a plan or flow of events that make up the day, but I wonder, and I swear, I wonder, what an empty day would be like. ?Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

There are things that come to your mind that you don't say. There are jokes that make you laugh thinking about them and that you don't say because you're afraid they're out of place or that they're only funny to you. Speaking of the fear of saying things out of place, we must objectively consider that instinct sometimes tells us something real, therefore there is a probability, not necessarily limited, that they are actually out of place, in which case you have to plug your mouth. mouth and do an inner reflection to understand why you can think of things out of place to say and maybe try to understand why they are out of place. Having said that, we can also think that what is clearly out of place in certain situations could instead belong to the basic language in a different context and in this case the reflection we should do is whether the things we think we are saying are out of place or if it's us, and there the reflection becomes more on what our place is in the world, but to draw the strings we have already talked about it in another episode, so let's go back to the out of place things and to the fact that some things we say, once said, they show us that they were fun only for us.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

I who am a subject who according to the definitions belongs to generation Y, more or less, also called "millennials" and on which I have recently recounted my reflections on the matter and who have defined what happens as "cringe", having repeatedly spent some time reflecting on the strange words of our daily life, which perhaps come from other languages and which perhaps have become commonly used through a language that is not entirely mine, it seemed necessary to spend some time again and really consider " cringe” as an Englishism of which we make excessive use, in my opinion. I see it this way because, it is a term that I hear more and more used in very very different contexts which forced me to look for more information to get a precise idea of the meaning of the word, because if I had to learn it from listening experience , precisely in different contexts, honestly, I would not have deduced in the slightest that it meant what it means, which leaves me perplexed again on the choice of words for linguistic economy which are not economic, because they do not simplify the understanding of situations, they complicate it, and this for it doesn't make sense to me. But let's get back to us, what does "Cringe" mean? Literally, I understand, that it is used to define a situation that when you look at it causes you embarrassment, or more literally an involuntary contraction of the facial muscles, a bit like in disgust, and in the social network environment, where word is more prevalent, it comes up when we look at or share something we wish didn't exist, but. Yes, I know, I always come up with a but, what can I do, I'm someone who gets stuck in standbys and today it goes like this too. But, sorry, if it means that the situation I'm observing generates embarrassment for those who have done it, I'm basically embarrassed for them, because when I hear someone use the word cringe there is never an emotion of disgust and always, oh always, the contraction of the facial muscles does not occur? My but, arises from the fear that a strange use is being made of a word that brings with it a useful definition, but that if it is also used for situations that instead of Cringe could easily be defined as strange, avoidable, annoying, without however generate that widespread sense of embarrassment, the result is that the meaning is lost in the desire to use a word that is cool but which in reality was not the one I needed. Can't you find? That is, if I decide that in one way or another I have to insert the word cringe into the conversation because it gives me a tone to use the word cringe, don't you think it's a bit cringe to do so? The word inserted inappropriately, without a real stimulation of the involuntary facial contraction generated by disgust, embarrasses me for you who are not able to choose a better term to define what you are talking about. Hearing the word in the wrong place produces a deep facial muscle contraction in me, because I wonder where did you get it from if not the fashion of using it. And this cringe effect, not only does the word cringe itself but it brings with it a string of other terms that are slipped into conversations just to slip them in without actually being connected to the context and in line with the thought that is being expressed. Some of the most fashionable examples are the names of the cultural generations we talked about in the last episode and which lead us to hear “Boomers” or “millennials” to make references that have little to do with Boomers and millennials and again the my face involuntarily contracts, and so it happens with a thousand other words that we use without asking ourselves, yes we, if they really should stay there or not, if there is a better one for each single sentence, the pros and cons of a term or of the other. In practice, I could become a great user of the word "Cringe", is that I'm still fond of saying: "What the fuck are you saying?" or "What the fuck is he doing?", and boh, they seem even more effective, clearer, that's it.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

In my memory, until a few years ago, the age of a person was identified according to the year of birth and from that one could deduce some cultural references and habits that belonged to that person and his peers. Which then, is exactly the same thing we do today, only that instead of referring to the years of birth we refer to some definitions which, trivially, group together blocks of various years of birth, with the only difference, that for someone, like me, they create a bit of difficulty, that you have to remember which year you refer to with each definition, which are numbers and letters as if we were looking at an excel sheet. Wait, Excel is a valid reference for me. For the bigger ones I can use filing cabinet, for the smaller ones it definitely wins google docs I hope, otherwise I'm left behind.

There are dramatic things all the time. Every day there are chilling news that I honestly wouldn't want to be part of everyday life or even the extraordinary, that is, come on, if there weren't so many negative stories in the world everything would be much better. Similarly, if we opened the daily press review tomorrow morning and found only positive news, it would seem strange to us, we would think that something is wrong, even though it would instead be one of the most desirable things for our planet.Original episode in ItalianSpanish versionOther podcast projects from Michele Battistella and C Reattiva Sono una Fenice IT Soy un fènix ES They're a phoenix EN#Standby original on SpotifyStandby in translation on Spotify english versionModo de Espera on Spotify_standby spanish version more link: Luck Tales Adventures, Michele IG

While at a national level an increase in employment is being celebrated and the apparent victory against unemployment which, as we all know, cannot be resolved in a backlash made up of short contracts which will then be used to obtain new access to social safety nets for unemployment and for the challenges that have accompanied us for decades. But the title of this podcast talks about something else, and it's a standby reflection that I've been carrying around for a longer time and that sometimes has become fossilized to the point of seeming a procrastination from listlessness worthy of the title.

Listening is certainly one of the most difficult and useful things among those that we should learn to do effectively in our daily lives. I say we should, not surprisingly, it's a necessary conditional because let's be clear that we don't know how to listen. Even those who believe they know how to listen or know what the elements of good listening are, perhaps failing entirely to put it into practice, but at least one consciously tries and it's already a good start, but it shouldn't be enough. Now, if listening is so difficult, and just as far from hearing, that instead we do with the simple fact that we cannot live with our ears plugged, but this does not mean that we are also listening to everything we hear.
