Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 3, Episode 11 on Transacting Value Podcast!
Forgiveness, humility, and sacrifice are the values we’re focusing on in September. Today Porter talks with Christopher Kirk, a father of two and former infantryman.
Chris was medically discharged from the military after having complications from knee surgery. He was out of commission for months. And though he still has knee problems, he currently runs a CNC machine for flooring, specifically inlays for flooring (think logos on gymnasium floors).
In today’s episode, Chris and Porter discuss the following:
- the polarization we see in the media today. Chris believes that the majority of Americans are centrists in their views, but in the media, all we see are the extremes. Media outlets seem more concerned about ratings than representing the majority.
- the military as an equalizer in Chris’s life. In the military, there were no cliques, outcasts, or popular crowds.
- violence – where does it come from? Video games, music, movies, and television likely play a role in the gun violence we see today.
- The likelihood of history repeating itself through oppression, greed, etc., and the dangers of deleting or rewriting history.
Quotes from today’s episode:
“Social media and media, in general, is a huge problem right now. Everybody is offended by everything.”
“I won’t watch mainstream media or any news outlet. Both sides are against each other. There is no center that is most of America.”
“As long as you’re not affecting me or anyone else, do you.” “You almost have to discredit what people are seeing now to explain the reality in the nonfiction of certain things.” “I think deleting history is going to make it reappear.”
