What happens when we start living to enrich the lives of others and how does it affect overall mood? This episode of the podcast discusses the innate necessity of human connection and how just a smile can change someone's day.  It's so easy to become trapped in our heads, being burdened by our own conscious thought yet someone's act of kindness or their mere words can pull us out of our own minds and completely alter our mood. Why is it so important to have this connection and how can one implement these techniques of connectivity in their daily lives?

All things Josh - https://www.joshdohy.com/

Josh Dohy is a Parkour practitioner and aspiring actor/comedian based out of Vancouver, Canada. He is known for his unique style of movement and creativity. I'm so grateful he came onto the show. Josh brings a lot of intelligence, brightness, comedy, and insight into this episode. We discuss Josh's journey in Parkour, the lessons he has learned from the discipline, and the importance of having other interests. We also touch down on some Parkour world controversy, fixed and growth mindsets, and how your attention is a commodity that is being saught after,

I hope you the conversation as much as I did! 

Ever since I was young, I never really fit into any type of mold. I was hyperactive, impulsive, and full of kinetic energy. I also had an extreme personality that stood out amongst most of my peers..

This by no surprise made developing friendships difficult for me. I spent the majority of my childhood alone, intentionally self-isolating and being introverted. 

This podcast discusses my experiences with friendships and what it's like being an "outsider" as well as my own discovery of meaning in relationships and the value they hold. 

I get on the line with my friend Ross, otherwise known as Finger Bang Gaming, and shoot the breeze. Ross is a gamer living in the UK who also works in the military doing that young office work. We had a great time chatting about virtual reality, games we like, and the negative perception of gamers.  Enjoy the show!

What happens when your life situation changes dramatically and you end up in a place that values a completely different lifestyle than you? I guess you could say I'm just an artist trapped in the farmland occupied by "salt of the earth" individuals. 

In this episode of the podcast, I basically talk shit on the current area of the country I live in. I know, real mature, right? I have noticed a lot of differences about the culture out here versus other places I have lived and thought I would take some time and ramble on about it. Enjoy the shit show! 

Have you ever been kept up at night by the thought that one day you are going to die? 

This podcast covers the mortality we all face every day and if there is a meaning to life. I busted out my phone when my brain wouldn't shut off and decided to go over the topic of death and how the notion of dying affects our lives. 

Attractiveness is coveted,

but what makes an individual attractive?

I would say there are a ton of reasons why a person would be considered attractive and while the exact reasons may vary depending on the culture you live in, the specifications remain ubiquitous among humans. 

This episode of Loudy Thoughts delves into the varying aspects of what it means to be attractive and why we care so much about looking hawt as hell! 

Brandon Douglass is a dope Parkour practitioner and long time friend living in Denver Colorado. He has been on television shows and clinched 1st and 2nd place in multiple Parkour speed competitions. He also has his own podcast called "height drop" where he talks to parkour practitioners about their practice, methodologies, and ways of life. 

We first met through a Parkour company called Apex Movement and quickly became friends. In this episode, we catch up after years apart and discuss current world affairs, the evolution of man (including Neural Link), human optimization, how to change your brain chemistry, and plenty of other topics.

Some people might consider humans inherently valuable, but what designates value? We know gold and platinum are coveted and revered due to rarity but what else gives something value?

I would argue that the contribution of any person or thing makes it useful and when we look at contribution on a large enough scale we see that humans just aren't up to the task of saving themselves much less turning off Netflix to develop a real skill or hobby.
