I hope you like it! Thanks for reading :)

Exercise is truly one of the things I love most in the world, but I recognize that this isn't the case for everybody, including some of my past selves.

In this episode, I discuss some real truths about exercise that I think will help you cultivate a most positive mindset towards how you move your body. I think you're going to really like this one.

What is HTTP? We recognize it from URLS, but most of us don't have the slightest clue as to what it actually is, I know I didn't. Before I learned about HTTP, I didn't even realize that HTTP was something that did something, as silly as that sounds. I think I sort of just figured that it was just some meaningless part of the URL. In this episode you'll gain an understanding of HTTP and what it does for us, which is a lot. I encourage you to listen even if, especially if, you don't think this is the kind of thing you would understand. I think you'll find it interesting! Thanks for reading :)

Who knew that all the wisdom you'd ever need would come from the heroes in a half shell?

I discuss a variety of ideas and actionable steps in this episode that can help you become a better version of yourself, including the importance of balancing maturity and playfulness, doing the right thing without the need for recognition, and mindful eating.

Olivia Rodrigo's GUTS dropped last week, and it's already one of my favorite albums of the year. While listening, I've noticed some parallels to mathematical concepts that I've come across over the years. In this episode, we're going to take a tour of the album through a mathematical lens. If you're asking yourself "what could that even mean?", I recommend you go ahead and listen to find out :)

The Navajo Code is one of the few military codes throughout history that was never broken in its lifetime. United States Marines from the Navajo Nation used this code, which was based on their native tongue, to efficiently and securely send highly sensitive military information during WWII. The ingenuity of the code and the bravery of the men who employed it can not be understated. In this episode, I talk about the Navajo Code Talkers and why they were so crucial to America's military efforts in the Pacific theater during WWII. I learned a lot while making this episode and I believe you'll learn a lot by listening.

In this episode I dive into some perspectives that I use to cultivate more positivity in my everyday life. Don't worry, none of them are "it could be so much worse". I believe that the quick, fun, and actionable steps that I provide in this episode will leave you a little bit more excited about life - that's my goal at least. I really hope you like it!

What is the internet? It's a question that a lot of us want to know the answer to, but feel like it's too late to ask. We have no problem using the word "internet" in a sentence, but if pressed to give a definition, we're forced to confront the fact that we actually don't understand it at all, even though we use it every single day. In today's episode, we'll not only gain a deeper understanding of the internet, but hopefully a newfound appreciation for it as well.
