Send Jim a Topic to Explore

Season 2 of Think First is coming — and it’s going much deeper.

In this special announcement episode, Jim Detjen shares what’s changing, why the show is evolving beyond headlines and culture-war reactions, and how Think First is expanding into a broader long-form exploration of perception, memory, belief, institutional trust, consciousness, mythology, AI, narrative formation, and the psychology of reality itself.

Jim also introduces The M Institute™ — a new long-horizon initiative focused on disciplined inquiry, human orientation, media literacy, AI literacy, and psychological grounding in an age of distortion and synthetic information.

The episode also discusses:

• Why Season 2 episodes will become longer and more immersive
• Recording Distorted for Audible
• Taking a short step back May–July to research, think, build, and spend time with family
• Celebrating his son’s graduation from the United States Air Force Academy
• Future Think First topics, including memory, identity, mythology, cymatics, hidden systems, consciousness, and meaning
• How listeners can help shape future episodes

Because the deeper story begins where certainty ends.
