Proven by science 

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're waking up with fifth in the morning time, kiss
good morning.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
When you're in pain, what is the what's the one
thing you could say to make you feel better? I
think that parents and maybe even teachers are gonna be
mad about the thing I talk about, but I think
you'll end up getting a kick out of it.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Real quick.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Coming up at seven thirty, I have ten uninterrupted minutes
of Lady Gaga, And I know asking for ten minutes
of your time in the morning is like a lifetime right.
So many things happen within ten minutes of morning time.
But if you're a fan, I think you're gonna like it.
It's an honor for a new album coming out. We're
gonna play this Lady Gaga mix.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
So don't go far.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Okay, So, if you're in pain, I saw this article
that scientists say to relieve the pain, to make you
feel better, to tolerate it, the best thing you can
do is just blurt out your favorite swear word at
the top of your lungs.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
Here we go, we go.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
You know that feeling you get you stub your toe
or you whack your elbow and you're like, yeah, I
don't know how I get through this job every day
without swearing.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
I don't know what it is.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
I'ven't asked that question before, because let me tell yeah,
you get me out of this little box every day
and away from this microphone, and you.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Uh end up getting on my nerves. My Boston comes out.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
We get a lot of swear words you can fit
into you know, ten seconds at timing.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
In fact, okay, let me read it for you.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Researchers are still figuring out exactly why explicit language helps
boost pain tolerance, but they found saying your favorite four
letter word can come with other perks. Using profanity can
help improve memory, strengthen relationships, manage emotional pain, and give
you a short term strength boost. So think fight or

(01:45):
flight when you're at the gym and you're about to
throw up that next rep and you just let a
big swear word rip.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
I guess it's supposed to be better for your mind.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
A professor of physical therapy suggests swearing at a steady
pace once a second to once every three seconds is best.
And even if you're not like me and you don't
like yelling in public, you know you can say it silently,
I guess, and it does the same thing. However, if
you use like fudge instead of the word we're thinking of,

(02:18):
it does not do the same thing.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
So you gotta really mumble it right under your breath,
you know. I was like, you know what, I'm in
my forties, like sorry, So I hope that brought you
a little bit of joy this morning. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Just remember, if you're ever in pain, you just you
let it out. In the meantime, we're still commercial free.
If you can't let it out here, where are you
gonna let it out? That's my motto.
