Life's a Fight

In today's AMX, we talk: GSP's return, how to avoid criticism and the point at which most SEAL candidates quit (in author Eric Greitens' class).

Five days a week, during AMX episodes, anyone can hear The Spaniard share his latest learnings from daily reading. This week, you get bonus reflection. Because The Spaniard is eager to discuss how two books plowed fresh furrows into his mind: "Tribe" by Sebastian Junger and "Never Split the Difference," by Christopher Voss." He muses with Dread on ideas including shared purpose, communities of loners, communicating experience through ceremony, and practicing empathy. Dread adds some nonsense about creating his own echo effect while listening to The Spaniard. (Feel free to fast-forward through that part.)

In today's AMX, we talk: PAIN, fate and extinguishing small flames.
