Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is deeper in the den with dangerous day. Well,
today is National make your Bed Day, which is something
around forty percent of us do every day. Another sixty
percent haven't done it since they were forced to in
order to get a weekly allowance. But if you'd make
your bed every day, there are some benefits. Here's what
they say if you don't make your bed every day.

(00:21):
Happiness a steady found. Sixty two percent of non bed
makers admit they're unhappy with their lives. However, seventy one
percent of bed makers said they're happy. So you'll be
more happy if you make your bed sleep. According to
the National Sleep Foundation survey, a made bed contributes to
healthier sleep habits and better rest. Anecdotally, some people say
a made bed feels more inviting when they're ready to sleep.

(00:44):
Number three turn on. In one poll, forty two percent
of bed makers said it would be a turnoff of
a potential partner left the sheets untucked. And finally, non
bedmakers enjoy playtime under the sheets twice a week. Bedmakers
also enjoy bedroom fun three times a week on average.
So there you go fifty percent more if you make

(01:05):
your bed. I know I got to make the bed
sep in the two. Before you know it, the holidays
are going to be upon us, and that means house guests.
Have you ever hosted a bad house guest, The chances
are they did one of these things. The huff Post
just made a list of the rudest things you can
do while staying overnight at somebody's house. Snooping tops a list.
Don't peak in their medicine cabinet. Don't start rifling through

(01:27):
their drawers if you need something like a tweezer, ask
where they are. Don't just go looking, making a mess
and hiding it. If you spill something on the couch,
tell them, don't try to cover it with a pillow.
If you don't fess up, you're definitely a bad guest.
Telling them how to be a parent. They're nice enough
to host you, don't start criticizing their parenting skills. A
lot of grandparents have a tough time with that rule.
You should pitch into help tiding up, doing some dishes.

(01:50):
They probably won't ask you to, but they'd certainly appreciate it.
Expecting access to their car, don't assume you can borrow it, unless,
of course, they said, if you need a car ahead
of time. Otherwise, just rent one and not giving your
host a break. Don't expect them to entertain you the
whole time. Don't be the person who never leaves the
house unless they take you somewhere. Hosting is hard, and

(02:12):
especially with extended days, make sure they get some alone time.
So give your host a little bit of a break.
Have you ever gone and been a bad guest? I
know there's some that sometimes when you have people over,
why don't you bring something to drink? If you like
a specific type of snack, why don't you bring that,
and for God's sake, clean up after yourself? To it
again for another episode of Deeper in the Den with
