This episode dives into the significant political question posed by Ronald Reagan during the closing moments of his 1980 presidential debate with Jimmy Carter: 'Are you better off than you were four years ago?' Ken Woodward explores the context of the 1980 political climate, marked by economic difficulties, high inflation, unemployment, and international issues such as the Iran hostage crisis and concerns about U.S. global standing and nuclear threats. Reagan's question, which became iconic in U.S. political discourse, was noted for its simplicity, personal relevance, emotional resonance, and strategic timing. The question invited voters to reflect on their circumstances rather than abstract policies, ultimately contributing to Reagan's landslide victory. The episode details six crucial lessons for crafting influential questions, emphasizing audience perspective, engagement, simplicity, timing, self-reflection, and a call to action. Listeners are encouraged to consider how such questions have shaped their decisions and to apply these insights in personal and professional contexts. This Curated Questions episode can be found on all major platforms and at CuratedQuestions.com . Keep questioning!

Is it easier for you to go and buy things in the stores than it was four years ago? Is there more or less unemployment in the country than there was four years ago?

Is it any easier to see why someone in a different circumstance may answer differently than you? How did the question affect your answer when the opposing politician asked it?

Lucky episode 7 finds Mer and Sonya wishing they were in the mountains of Colorado with their guest, Jenn Perez. (Although they'd be chugging water to stave off the altitude sickness.) Jenn lives in the mountains and her yard is often visited by moose, bears, and other critters so you won't find a garden outside of her home (there are plans in the works to chat about indoor gardening). She is a Sustainability Coordinator at Ball Aerospace and while things might seem a bit daunting in the world we live in today, Jenn breaks things down and shares some great tips with listeners including fashion, food sources, car choices, and being aware of local and state environmental issues.
