January 10, 2025 Human History, Graham Hancock and Ancient Civilizations - Seshisode 164
For all our advancements, open mindedness still seems to elude us. We war with each other of beliefs, promote misinformation in order to have our opinions heard, then stifle the opposition, dismiss new ideologies and try as hard as possible to ruin anyone who dares to say... "What about this?"
In a lot of ways we are better than we were. However, in a lot of ways we aren't. One person who knows this all to well is Graham Hancock. He is a journalist with a show on Netflix called "Ancient Apocalypse" it's a docuseries focusing on the possibility that our history may not be as accurate as we thought. He poses the concept that civilization may date back farther than we believe and there seems to be a some archeological evidence to support this suggestion.
Because of these views he's been shunned and miss-labeled a quack and a crazy person. The archeological community completely disregards him and actively tries to discredit and silence his findings. Seems a little odd that people would be so viscerally opposed to even think about the idea that more research and investigation could be done in to these possibilities.
Some times those in an industry or heading up projects can find themselves to close to idea or concept, to truly see the potential of possibilities. It benefits us all to entertain new concepts and ideologies, or at least the potential of. To better progress the human race. We should be capable of digesting good and bad information. That's how we learn and progress.
I personally find his concepts quite intriguing. I love the idea that we don't know as much as we think we do and our ancestral past may have wholes in it. Pockets of lost information if you will.
Besides there are people out there who truly believe, without a smidge of a doubt that, there was a guy who walked on water, that wasn't ice. There was a guy who parted the sea and it wasn't in his bathtub. There was a guy who built a boat the size of a city, put all the animals in the world on it and there wasn't a blood bath. If you can believe all that, shouldn't you be able to at least entertain the possibility of human history stretching a little farther back than previously discovered?
Hope you enjoy the sesh!

January 03, 2025 A Doppelganger, Pecker Pic Perpetrators and Dopey Dudes - Seshisode 163
Can someone please explain to me what is wrong with dudes?
Seriously! I get that we like to have fun and do dude things. However I do not understand why dudes seem to think that the best move is the first move.
Like for example: showing a questionable set of pictures to your co-workers. Why show someone and unsolicited pic of nakedness. No one wants to see that, let alone have it shoved in their face in the middle of a mall food court.
Have you ever sat around with woman and heard any of them say "geeze I wish Tom would send me a picture of his junk already". No you haven't. Do you know why you haven't? Well... because as much as Becky wants to see Tom's junk, she wants to see it under her own determination. Besides if you're gonna show your junk there needs to be context fueled by the dumping of hormones.
Maybe it's because that's all we are as dudes. Walking hormones. We never really grow out of that teenage mentality. It's the same mentality that allows us to think farts are funny and cleanliness is a virtue best left in the corner of the closet with our crusty socks and 4 day old skid mark riddled underwear.
That's the type of mentality that leads us to believe that mopping a floor is beneath us. Ask us to do menial tasks and it will illicit an ape like tantrum that ultimately leads to us fighting with our peers and coworkers, ultimately leading to our dismissal from the group.
All I'm saying is, keep it in you pants, mop the floor and act like a man not the child you wish you were.
Hope you enjoy the sesh!

December 20, 2024 Born at the Wrong Time, Reincarnation - Seshisode 161
Have you ever been convinced you were born in the wrong era?
Over the years I've occasionally wondered if I was better suited for life in the 1950's. It seems like some of the values of a different time better suite my personality.
There's just so many aspects of that time period that I think I would enjoy. The style, the cars and the sense of community to mention a few. It was just a simpler time and maybe that's what I am really looking for.
While thinking about all the possibilities of living in a different area my mind may have wandered in to thoughts about reincarnation. I also think that would be cool as hell. The possibility that you could come back as another person would be amazing. The only thing I would want to know for sure, is whether or not you would have the knowledge of your old self. Could you use the information you gained in your past lives to make your new life more enjoyable or prosperous?
Hope you enjoy the sesh!

December 13, 2024 You can't Fix Stupid - Seshisode 160
This week on Thoughts Off The Stem we're talking about Hawk Tuah girl, her Hawk coin and the stupidity that is investing based on celebrity.
I mean really, who in their right mind invests in an unstable currency because some 20 something kid decides to put her name on a form of it. The funniest part to me is that, people were surprised they lost all their money. I'm not well versed in investing however, I can say without a doubt there is no chance I'm investing in someone who's claim to fame is the best way to make a guy happy and "spit on that thang".
Have we learned nothing from the Logan Paul fiasco?
Internet celebrities, celebrities in general are not the people you should look to for financial advice. First of all they are getting paid more money than you could make to be the face of a series of imaginary numbers. Secondly they aren't the ones calling the shots. Someone behind the scenes advising them on what to do next, and their motivation is most likely an attempt to capitalize on that persons fame.
This is the kind of stuff that makes me worried for the future of humanity. We really are moving in the direction of "Idiocracy". Is this seriously the pinnacle of humanity?
Hope you enjoy the sesh!

December 07, 2024 Marijuana, Honest Conversations and Your Kids - Seshisode 159
Talking about marijuana with your kids can be a bit uncomfortable. I get it. It's not something we as parents really want to do. But just like talking about the birds and the bees, it is our responsibility to make sure that they get the correct information.
As a pot shop manager I have always been very open and honest with my kids. I don't see any value in hiding my use of marijuana from them. In many cases I have customers who do their best to keep their use hidden from their kids. I personally don't think this is the right move. I think if you normalize marijuana on the same level as booze you'll have less young people inappropriately using marijuana. Or at the very least using it at a point in their lives, when it's detrimental to brain development.
Having said all that, I don't think we should be talking to our toddlers about weed. This type of conversation should probably coincide with school lesson plans about drugs and alcohol. Besides hiding your use of these substances from your kids really cuts into your credibility. There is nothing worse than your kids potentially losing faith in you because you're being hypocritical.
Hop you enjoy the sesh!

November 29, 2024 University Parties, Underage Drinking and a Wheel Chair! - Seshisode 158
This week on Thoughts Off The Stem, we're telling university party stories. I have a huge appetite for fun. My first year at university consisted of a lot of drinking, laughs and good times and very little school work. I'm not saying it was the right move but it definitely left me with some fun stories to tell.
When I was younger I was always looking for the party. Once I got to university I was ready to do whatever I wanted. Without someone to over see what I was doing, I neglected everything that wasn't at the bottom of a bottle. Partying was me jam for sure. I met a lot of cool people and spent many nights with a bunch of the football team testing the limits of my chugging capabilities.
The combination of free flowing booze and the wheel chair my roommate had stolen from his grandmother. He used it as a desk chair. We used it as a party favour, traversing the hall ways doing wheelies and spins seeing who could hold their wheelie as long as possible without up ending ourselves in a door way.
This one fate full night, I may or may not have commandeered the chair on a trip to the bar. Being 18 and in university I had missed out on a few bar trips at this point. So with a stomach full of booze, wobbly legs, a fake id and a simple mode of transportation I decided to tag along on a night out. So load up your bong, heat up the dab rig or roll up your favourite strain and join the sesh for some hijinks.
Hope you enjoy!

November 23, 2024 Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson, what did we really expect!? - Seshisode 157
This week on Thoughts Off The Stem, we're talking about the Jake Paul, Mike Tyson fight. That's right, just like you, I allowed myself to get suckered in to the fantasy of it all. So my son and I decided to make it bro time in the living room and watch the fights.
It was definitely quite the spectacle, that's for sure! There actually was a good boxing match in there too. A few things needed a tweak here and I'm sure you've heard all the talk about Netflix crashing. There was definitely a lot going on, which left us with quite a bit to talk about. So roll up your favourite strain and join the sesh!
Hope you enjoy!

November 15, 2024 Logical Potheads, Idolizing Idiots and BlueBerry Frost! - Seshisode 156
This week on Thoughts Off The Stem we are talking about logical potheads, societies fascination with idolizing idiots and a review of Dealer's Blueberry Frost pre roll.
If you haven't watched the last podcast you should check it out. This seshisode starts with a mini discussion related to seshisode 155. Basically as a pothead I feel like non potheads judge us with the assumption that we are lazy and stupid.
Last weeks episode was about an incident at school where I, Justin Barone, your friendly neighbourhood pothead was the voice of reason. Or rather at least more level headed than some of my parenting peers. Which surprised me because I am the pothead of the group. In this instance, where everyone reacted rather than thinking it through. I prevailed as the more level headed member of the group.
I attribute that to the fact that I smoke weed quite honestly. It got me thinking that in most cases if there were an issue at hand. A group of people would not necessarily look to the pothead for guidance or leadership. But in this case, I reacted to the situation and reached out. Everyone just said, "ok lets see what happens after Justin does a little digging." Quite honestly it amazed me that everyones reaction was going to be based on what I was able to do about the situation.
Ultimately it got me thinking about how in society we still have a misconception of the capabilities of potheads. All I'm saying is, it's ok to trust a pothead.
In that vein I some how got around to discussing Lt. Dan. You know the Florida man who tried to live through Hurricane Milton on a dingy in the ocean.
It just amazed me how quickly society idolizes idiots. How quickly we support lunacy and urge it to run it's course. I feel like some how those idiots get categorized as potheads too. Which really just hurts our street cred man.
Not all potheads are token idiots. Most of us are hard working, logical, laid back people who enjoy introspective thought, silliness and a relaxing time. All we want to do is smoke a joint think about life's possibilities and eat our favourite snack.
Hope you enjoy the sesh!

November 08, 2024 Special Needs, A Parenting Class and a Controversial Lesson Plan - Seshisode 155
This week on Thoughts Off The Stem I'm discussing a situation at my oldest kids highschool.
The teacher decided to use the special needs class to represent toddlers for a day in order to prepare her students for a toddler play date the following month.
There is something seriously wrong with this don't you think?
Is there no one around this teacher proofing the lesson plans?
This to me was a major problem. It turns out it was a problem for a few of the parents. I reached out to find out what the logic was here. Lets just say the response left me less than happy or satisfied that this would further anyones education.
I'm not trying to be any kind of social justice warrior here. I'm just saying that using anyone for to represent something they aren't is not the best look. There should have been way more thought put in to this. The practice of using someone with a disability to represent toddler is just wrong. The needs of both people are vastly different and in my opinion are not in any way similar or representative of the other.
I also find it hard to believe that parents of the students in the special needs class, had they known this was going on, would have been overly accommodating or happy about having their kids involved in such an experiment.
I just don't think it's right to use people like that.
Join the Sesh and let me know what you think. Do you think the teacher was in the wrong?
