31 EpisoderMaking a New Year's resolution is a great way to change something in your life for the better. Whether it's going to the gym, eating healthier, or saving more money New Year's seems to be an excellent jumping off point for many people to better themselves. Unfortunately, those who do resolve to make improvements, whether they be large or small, tend to give up after only a few weeks. In fact, according to U.S. News, [https://health.usnews.com/health-news/blogs/eat-run/articles/2015-12-29/why-80-percent-of-new-years-resolutions-fail] approximately 80% of resolutions fail by the second week of February. The odds are definitely not in your favor. So what can you do? Obviously, if you're setting a New Year's resolution, there is something that you want to change. Well, that's where we come in. Listen this week as our hosts talk about different ways to help regain the focus that you had when resolved to do the thing. (That's why this episode is airing in March and not in January.) They also share their experiences with setting goals and literally running towards them and how that can help with achieving your resolutions. Do you usually set New Year's resolutions?

Seasonal Affective Disorder, sometimes known as SAD, and commonly called “seasonal depression,” is a type of depression that comes and goes with the seasons. It generally starts in the late fall or early winter and ends once spring and summer arrive. While depressive episodes linked to the summer do occur, they are much less common than winter episodes of SAD. If you’ve ever listened to our show, you know that our panelists are no stranger to depression. They’re also no stranger to seasonal depression. Listen as they share their experience on batting the winter blues. They discuss how knowing that winter is coming affects them and those they love, and what they do to make it through the coldest months of the year. If you or someone you know struggles with seasonal depression, don't brush off that yearly feeling as just a case of the "winter blues" or a seasonal funk that you have to tough out on your own. There are different treatment options available that can be used either by themselves or in conjunction with one another. * Medication * Light therapy [https://amzn.to/2IsXXDY] * Psychotherapy * Vitamin D * Exercise You can find out more about Seasonal Affective Disorderhere [https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/seasonal-affective-disorder/index.shtml].

Spence Checketts is one of the 15 million Americans who struggles with an alcohol use disorder. As one of the hosts of "The Big Show" on 1280 The Zone in Salt Lake City, and as the voice of the Utah Jazz and Real Salt Lake pre, half, and post-game shows, it seemed like he had it all. But then one day, he made a bad decision that cost him almost everything. Spence recently took some time to chat with us regarding his struggles with alcohol addiction and what took place on that day that changed everything. In this honest and candid conversation, we discuss his journey from growing up in the NBA to his successful career in sports radio and how he's bouncing back from going from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows. And what kind of show would we be if we didn't talk about the Utah Jazz? The answer: not a very good one. (Spoiler... We talk Utah Jazz basketball.) If you want more of Spence, give him a follow him on Twitter and Instagram. Also, be sure to check out his new podcast, Reality Check with Spence Checketts, wherever podcasts are found.

The holidays are here and with them comes an influx of new movies. But what's even better is that we now have the excuse to pull out our favorite Christmas movies from our collections.

From Home Alone to Die Hard, the modern classics are all discussed. And what would a discussion about Christmas movies be without talking about copyright laws, piracy, and It's a Wonderful Life? If you're looking for some recommendations of what to watch this year with your friends and family, or maybe just your cat, this is an episode that you definitely want hear. What are your favorite Christmas/holiday films? Are there movies that you watch every year or could you not be bothered? And where do you stand on Die Hard? Is it a Christmas movie or not?
