The Rhetoric Rick Show

I"m just on here to gripe about everyday life but I realize that somehow there"s a silver lining! That silver lining is just us getting older and wiser. Everything is not right or wrong, left or right, or even good or bad. Everything is greyscaled at best.

Dave Ramsey and OnlyFans

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2022/01/10

Dave Ramsey is still around and has followers - wow! My fascination with this Charleton and how a teacher makes more money on OnlyFans than actually teaching. I guess you can call this the personal finance episode.

My update, Aaron Rodgers, ghosting people

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/11/08

Did I take on a 3rd job? I explain what's been going on with me lately and what to expect. Aaron Rodgers kinda lied? I cover how NFL Commentators were right to rip on him. Have you've ever been ghosted or have you ghosted someone? I'm betting you've done both at some time or another. I actually go over why it's ok to ghost people. Spoiler: The ghoster is not always the 'bad guy.' Links:

Mental outlets and dress codes

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/10/31

2 part episode: This show isn't sponsored but I see it as a 'venting' outlet for me. I stress the importance of finding an outlet for your thoughts and feelings. Try everything to resolve negative feelings - especially activities you'd think you'd never do. Also, should establishments have some type of dress code? I think so.

Celebrity gift ideas, really?! Online dating profile...

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/10/18

I cover a lot in this episode but didn't get into too much 'fluff' and 'padding.' Not sure why we need to buy what celebrities have. If you don't know about to begin with - you most likely don't need it. I had a listener email me about wanting some online dating profile tips and here's a few links for haunted attractions before Halloween is over: U.S. best haunts: https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/much-costs-visit-best-scariest-130149383.html Portland haunts:

Self-checkout jerk and chatting dating app drop

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/10/12

Have you've ever been in a self-checkout line anywhere? Of course, you have! Remember the jerk that took their time to scan a handful of items and took a long time for something that's instantaneous? That happened to me today. I share my thoughts on this and getting unmatched on a dating app after asking to meet. Isn't that the point?

The National Debt Ceiling and my absenteeism

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/10/04

It's budget season again and congress talks about the national debt and ceiling. It seems like we go over the same 'heated' debates every time the budget is due. I go over why (in the grand scheme of things) it probably won't matter and how both sides are to blame. I also go over why I've been so inconsistent lately with my content. National debt

Empty gestures we use

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/09/27

"Let's get together sometime. We should grab a drink later on. We need to hang together. Let's just be friends." All this should sound familiar. It's been told to us and we've used these same lines at one point or many. Why do we say this knowing that we have no intention to contact or see this person or persons again? I'm guilty of this and in this episode, I talk about two recent encounters where this was told to me and people didn't come through. I also talk about how I plan not to 'accept' these

Rules are Rules!

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/09/24

Whether it's wearing a mask, being vaccinated, or just simply having a shirt on - every establishment has rules. You have rights. Guess what - so do they. In this episode, I cover why we need those rules and how it affects every party involved. It's the price of admission. Just like when someone goes to your house - you have rules as well.

Individuality - really?!

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/09/20

Do you really believe you're completely unique and no one is like you on this earth? Do you think that you don't 'fit in' with groups or with other people? I go over why this is BS and how people are creatures of habit. No one is more special or different than anyone else.

Individuality - really?!

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/09/18

So we think it's real. I believe it's real - to an extent. In this episode, I cover how people have taken this concept too far. Although details may differ from person to person - we're really not much more special than everyone else. Also, how because of the obsession of wanting to be recognized and acknowledged - we've set aside common decency and civic duties.
