Back by popular demand is Bryan's father, Mr. Michael Callen, a retired financial businessman, who at one time ran the largest banks in the world, Citicorp. In this episode, they discuss the fiscal cliff as well as Michael's time in Iwo Jima as a U.S. Marine. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

Ep28 - Michael Callen

As kids, we're like little sponges blindly copying culture from the people around us. The cultures into which we were all born evolved to fit very old agricultural environments. Each contains timeless wisdom about human affairs but none of them is ideally suited to navigating the ever-changing environment in which we find ourselves.

The goal of Mixed Mental Arts is to steal the best cultural software from everywhere and apply the core principle of Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do "Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own." Welcome to the dojo! We're excited to learn from you.
