A review of 1970s "Laugh-In" episodes reveals that political grievances against the Supreme Court, such as the "Impeach Earl Warren" movement, have long been part of American culture. The segment notes a shift in media ethics, where modern news organizations now actively work to take down competing media outlets, a practice previously considered "unsportsmanlike."
The "Mind Up" program, founded by actress Goldie Hawn, uses "brain breaks" and chimes to calm students in inner-city schools. While some critics view the techniques as a form of mind control or hypnosis, teachers defend the program for reducing classroom aggression. The hosts experiment with a "Zenergy chime" and discuss Lacanian techniques for avoiding hypnosis by concentrating intensely on a speaker's words.
Actress Goldie Hawn's "MindUp" program has been implemented in schools for over 650,000 children from kindergarten through eighth grade. The curriculum, developed with neuroscientists, teaches "mindfulness" and "brain breaks" to help students manage stress and aggression. While presented by NBC News as a positive tool for emotional regulation, the program is scrutinized for its high executive salaries and its focus on "living in the moment" as a response to a post-9/11 world of fear.
