  • #167 - Cody from X: I Read Documents From The Future In 1998 And This Is What Happens Between Now And 2035

    Friend of the show Cody joined me for the second time last night. Cody is a brilliant poet, has an MBA and PhD, and recently wrote a dissertation on Restorative Justice. He's an interesting cat. We talked about a slew of topics, some of which are mainstream and some of which would be considered alternative and, frankly, even fantastical. The story goes that he was handed documents from the future in 1998 and now has insight into the world events that are occurring today. For example, Cody says we win WWIII after some initial struggles once Putin dies and Russia flips to the West. Don’t even get me started with his prediction for what happens in US politics before the election. Apparently, things get even weirder than they already are. We also talked a bit about aliens. That wasn’t on his agenda, but I couldn’t resist asking. On the mainstream side, we talked about issues like the justice system, abortion, and nutrition. Buckle up for this one because we entered some strange and fascinating territory. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think!

  • #166 - John Bogley: A Rational Democrat's Argument Against Trump

    My decision to vote for Trump does not mean that I have found my overall political identity or that I have any desire to stop talking to people with opposing views. It was an honor to host knowledgeable Democrat and long-time X friend John Bogley. He argued that I should reconsider my support for Trump because he is merely a good salesman who took credit for things that would have happened anyway during his term in office. The main focus of this conversation was Trump’s economy. John picked it apart piece by piece. Did he convince me to change my mind? The answer is that I'm firm in my decision. I couldn't have been posting with such conviction over the last few weeks if I wasn't. I see a world now on fire that was under control when Trump was in power, and I want a return to that sense of calm. There are also many other factors that I have laid out extensively lately that have made me all-in for Trump. However, because John is so rational and precise, I will still host him for a follow-up conversation before the election to discuss his opinion on Trump’s impact on foreign policy, social issues, and his culpability in the 2020 election drama. I'm honored to stand firm while simultaneously resisting the pull of the echo chamber.

  • #161 - Guy Golan: What Does It Mean To Be Jewish?

    I had a blast talking to Dr. Guy Golan about what it means to be Jewish and his new book "My Brother's Keeper? The Complicated Relationship between American Jews and Israel." He is spectacular, and the subject of the book is so relevant to what I'm going through.

  • #160 - Ivan Freed: The Chains of Progressivism

    Ivan Freed’s years as a leadership coach and philanthropist led him to conclude that progressive policies are tools of enslavement. Bizzare theory, right? I hope you find the conversation about his book “Chains” as thought-provoking as I did.
