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.

Online learning overload!!

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/09/16

Everyone is trying to sell you something once you show interest in learning something new. Name the subject, and someone is ready with a course, ebook, or even a subscription plan for material that most would deem mediocre at best. I go over the illusion of online learning and what you can do to stay focused on learning and not paying for courses you don't need or just regurgitate what they (or someone else) already produced.

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/09/15

Last part of our four-part series of small things not to gripe about. I know this list wasn't too relevant for most of us but I managed to stretch it out to make it more relatable to our everyday lives. The list wasn't all too great, in my opinion, but I hope you still managed to enjoy the show and the series. The next one will be more in-depth. In this part I cover commercials/ads, housecleaning, restaurant wait time, blowing money. Link to article:

Split! Why are we so divided now?

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/09/14

Are you sold on any issue/political platform right now? Why are people jumping on bandwagons? It's crazy to think during uncertain times, people have certain views. I cover how politics, social media, and just general information overload is not just steering us wrong but the fact that we're believing things blindly. Is that you too?

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

Here we are again talking about masks and how it's become a fully legit hot topic - again. State governors are trying to 'punish' schools for mandate masks - yes it's real. I cover that and how people should be getting vaccinated already. The debate is over. Here's a link that I refer to in the show: https://news.yahoo.com/arizona-governor-blocks-schools-grant-125100417.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall

Guys need to buy their own clothes!

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/07/28

Gentlemen - I'm seeing this too much. Whatever city I live in - it's a recurring problem. Women are buying clothes that are obviously not for them. Time to grow up and take care of yourself. In this episode, I cover tips and tricks but you have to invest some time and effort in your fashion. Especially if you don't care about fashion.

Traveling alone concern

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/07/26

Today's episode I explore the topic of traveling alone. I am a big proponent of doing things by yourself. Checking out restaurants, bars, road trips, movies, etc. I even think that one should travel by themselves - if it's only a few days. Many people have supposedly stated that most of their long-term solo travels have been spiritual and enlightening. I don't believe that. I've traveled for up to a week by myself and was aching for some company after day 4. I go in more depth about it on the

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/07/18

This episode is a bit different because I had a situation where the love story sours but the takeaway is priceless.

Have you ever known someone who's been at their job a little too long? They complain, they're complacent and everyone either talks about them or they're avoided like the plague? Perhaps you were once like this - hopefully no longer. I've been both sides of the table and it was definitely a learning experience. We explore this topic and how to avoid becoming a part of it. Once you realize it's happening to you - it's quite simple - either move on or move out! I explain more in this episode.

Finding store employees/Post pandemic traffic gripe

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/06/14

I cover 2 different topics on today's show. Not a gripe but how is that that when you actually need a store employee for help - you can't find one. Also, are you prepared for the traffic to come back now that everything's opening up again? I'm definitely not enjoying that.

The Rhetoric Rick Show ·

2021/06/03

Let me guess - you can't afford a home either? Even if you're gainfully employed or a business owner making decent returns - you still can't afford a home. I know - that's me as well. When will this end and why is it like that? We cover that in today's show.
