Pollyanna is the tendency for people to remember or look at pleasant things more accurately than unpleasant things. Another way to put this is to say looking at things with a positivity bias. At first glance, this may seem to be a good thing, to a degree it is. The downside to this outlook is not accouting for negative things in life accurately. That can lead to a living on a cloud that does not exist. From ignoring something that needs your attention, to just letting bad stuff happen that could have been affected by oneself. Take a listen and see how Eddie and Darren view life and what you may learn from their conversation. As usual, their are tangents that fall off topic. See what Eddie means by "off pudding".
