Have you been listening to our new podcast “Upworthy Weekly”? Every Saturday Alison Rosen

[Upworthy Weekly podcast: Kids Name Things, Positive Conspiracies, World's Oldest Doctor]( Have you been listening to our new podcast “Upworthy Weekly”? Every Saturday Alison Rosen (“The Adam Carolla Show,” “Alison Rosen is Your New Best Friend”) and Upworthy staff writer Tod Perry cruise into the weekend by taking a lighthearted look at the site’s most popular and engaging stories. The podcast has great reviews on Apple Podcasts (4.6/5) with listeners calling it “delightful” and “good news delivered with great humor.” On Saturday’s episode, Alison and Tod talk about the funny names that kids give for things. Later, they listen to a TikTokker who sounds exactly like Michael Jackson and discuss the things they prefer to do “the old-fashioned way.” Plus, Tod has a controversial strategy to take the podcast to new heights.

The 1992 interview with Arsenio Hall began with Hall joking that Savage's "middle name is macho," and asking if he ever cried. If you're not familiar with professional wrestling in the 1980s and early '90s it was common for the biggest names of the day—Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, Ultimate Warrior, Mr. Perfect and, of course, Macho Man—to take on personas that often embodied what we might now call "toxic masculinity." Many of them were after all what they call "heels," in wrestling circles, aka the bad guys. So, it was pretty surprising to see the downright deep and wholesome response Savage gave to Hall without hesitation. "It's OK for macho men to show every emotion available," Savage says in the clip. "I've cried a thousand times and I'm gonna cry some more." [People shared 12 of the most surprising 'cries for help' the average person might miss]( “I’m fine.” How easily these two words slip from our mouths, often when nothing could be further from the truth. Sometimes, it feels safer to hide our true feelings, lest someone make a judgment or have a negative reaction. Other times, it’s a social rule instilled in childhood, perhaps even through punishment. Or maybe denying is the only way to combat overwhelm—if we ignore it all long enough, things will eventually get better anyway. At the end of the day … it’s all about avoiding further pain, isn’t it? But this denial can lead to even more suffering—not only emotionally, but physically as well. Everything from stiff muscles, to migraines, to digestive issues can stem from suppressing emotions. On a recent Ask Reddit thread, people shared their own indirect “cries for help” they’ve either witnessed, or made themselves. Their stories were eye-opening. It’s true that some are better at hiding their struggles than others, but even those individuals often give off subtle warning signs. [How breastfeeding actually works is seriously awe-inspiring]( Let me start by saying I don't care whether you breastfeed or not. Everyone's circumstances are different, no one needs to explain why they did or didn't breastfeed their babies and we'd all be better off with far fewer judgments across the baby-feeding spectrum. With that disclaimer out of the way, can we at least all agree that breastfeeding is freaking awesome? I mean, the whole biological process of growing an entire human practically from scratch is mind-blowing all by itself. But the fact that our bodies then create food to feed that human, with a whole system for how and when that food gets made and released, is just so cool. A CGI video depicting the process in a simple, clear way has people marveling at how it all works. The video gives an internal view of what's happening below the skin's surface as a baby latches on. [10 things that made us smile this week]( Wait. Are we really almost halfway through August already? Didn't I just write one of these intros talking about how summer had arrived?
