Speaking Generally

Maybe you think you know what virtues make for a good person:

- Kindness

- Moral courage

- Honesty

But do we all ACTUALLY agree on what makes for praiseworthy character? And are some of these values restrictive and overrated?

Join us for a chat as we wrestle with Aristotle and grapple with the problem of goodness.

Follow Stephen (@stephenhhussey) on Instagram and let us know your thoughts.

How do you decide what to read?

Should you go 50/50 with fiction vs. non-fiction?

Is it better to be led by your gut, or plan your books in advance?

We talk all this and more in this new booky-wooky episode!

At the end of bad things, you can always begin something new.

So that's what we're gonna do.

We talk about 4 brand new habits we want to adopt for January to control our own precious little slice of 2021.

It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid...

Another lockdown? Another podcast.

Join us as we talk:

- How to "get hunkered"

- Books we recommend for being cozy

- American candy favourites

Steve knows what it's like to struggle with weight. George is worried he's eating too much in lockdown.

Together, we talk about:

- How Steve went from chubby boy to healthy man

- Why "identity" matters in getting yourself to exercise

- The importance of deciding what body weight works for YOU

- The 80/20 rule applied to snacks

- Health advice from Warren Buffet

It's time for a change, so one of our heroes had up and moved to the ol' USA.

The four burners theory says you have four areas of focus in life:

1. work

2. family

3. health

4. friends

But can you have them all? Is trying to achieve perfect balance the path to the good life, as suggested by the Greeks and Confucian wisdom? Or is sacrifice necessary to do great things with our time on earth?

Let's weigh the scales and balance out the arguments!

We're back!

Some personal events have kept us away, but here we are, gently easing back in for a cozy podcast chat.

We talk:

- George's COVID wedding (at last!)

- What wins and loses after COVID

- London life after lockdown

- favourite recent books and TV in 2020

"Millenials are work-shy, entitled cry-babies"

"Boomers are narcissistic, entitled and greedy"

We've heard the stereotypes. But how true are they? Does it help to define attitudes by generations? And how much can we escape conforming to the stereotypes of the group we belong to?
