  • The Sad Hours (MM #5447)
    Feb 19 2026
    I’ve often discussed my goal to learn something new every day. It doesn’t matter how big or how small, I just love learning, anything. The other day, I was reading an article about sleep, and I learned two things. It was two for the price of one. First, I learned about the sad hours. Now, perhaps for some, they’re like, ” Have you been living under a rock? The sad hours happen between 1 and 5 AM, and it’s the time when many people, for lack of a better word, feel sadness, anxiety, stress, and other negative emotions. And those emotions can escalate in many ways. I count myself lucky I’ve never experienced that before… Click Here To Subscribe Apple PodcastsSpotifyAmazon MusicGoogle PodcastsTuneIniHeartRadioPandoraDeezerBlubrryBullhornCastBoxCastrofyyd.deGaanaiVooxListen NotesmyTuner RadioOvercastOwlTailPlayer.fmPocketCastsPodbayPodbeanPodcast AddictPodcast IndexPodcast RepublicPodchaserPodfanPodtailRadio PublicRadio.comReason.fmRSSRadioVurblWe.foYandex

  • Which Tool? (MM #5446)
    Feb 18 2026
    I remember back in 1995 when the Internet popped into everyone’s stream of consciousness. Everyone was trying to figure out how to use it and what they could do with it. People were still trying to understand browsers. Well, it didn’t really happen overnight. That perception reminds me of what we’re experiencing with artificial intelligence right now. AI has gone mainstream in just a short time. But for many, it’s still confusing. Most don’t know which tool to use, and when. I’ve been involved with AI for five years, and now use it almost every day at work. And I wish I could give you a definitive answer to the question, which tool? But it’s not that simple… Click Here To Subscribe Apple PodcastsSpotifyAmazon MusicGoogle PodcastsTuneIniHeartRadioPandoraDeezerBlubrryBullhornCastBoxCastrofyyd.deGaanaiVooxListen NotesmyTuner RadioOvercastOwlTailPlayer.fmPocketCastsPodbayPodbeanPodcast AddictPodcast IndexPodcast RepublicPodchaserPodfanPodtailRadio PublicRadio.comReason.fmRSSRadioVurblWe.foYandex

  • Describe It (MM #5445)
    Feb 17 2026
    Whenever someone finds out I produce a podcast, they ask me to describe it. And if you’ve listenedto the Mason Minute for any length of time, you know it’s not easy to explain. There’s no single topic or theme. It’s just my view of the world. Well, this week, someone has finally explained the podcast perfectly. The company that hosts my audio files, Blubrry, has named me their podcaster of the month. I’m not sure why, but I’m truly honored. And while they asked for a quick bio and a couple of lines describing the podcast, they built a blog post that perfectly explains what my 15-year labor of love has been about.
