Just a guy who noticed the writing on the wall; Our cause for depression, failure, unpopularity all stem from complacency to some degree. I don't have all the answers but that's why I try to learn from everyone and everyone. Join me as I sit down with close friends, interesting associates, and seasoned professionals and solopreneurs, and hash out their creative processes, personal mind hacks, and their strategies for success.
After a LONG Hiatus, we finish the season with dear friends and colleagues, Gemma Friel and Korey Weaver. We share our workplace experiences, discuss occupational injustice and shoot the breeze. If you are an employee fresh out of school, consider our experiences just one reference point of many, and establish your own ideas/opinions on managers and co-workers!
Oftentimes with nutrition and dieting we confuse compromise with progress and omit the vast versatility that food has for us --physically, emotionally, and even culturally. The penultimate episode of the season features two awesome people from different disciplines. Faithe, a Personal Trainer in the Triad and Katie, a Registered Dietitian in the Georgia area both join me to discuss their takes on the forces that form food fads.
If you are a chess player like me, I'm sure you've noticed the surge of new players in this modern chess Renaissance, facilitated by sites like Chess.com, LiChess.org and Twitch. We're all inside with our tactics and endgame problem, now closer to the elite players than ever on streaming sites. Some Grandmasters are happier than others about this.
Jacob Hahn, longtime friend and chess rival joins me on this episode to discuss and analyse the context and implications of the recent chess drama that unfolded on Twitch. Was the drama in jest? OR was there a deeper meaning to the issue with xQc, GM (grandmaster) Nakamura, and GM Finegold? You decide.
Please do check out my brief word on Chess Elitism.
Hello!
This is an episode I'll be putting on the billboards in I-440 E. Like, actual speakers. And warnings a half a mile in advance to stop and listen to the knowledge dropped here. I need 20 good men (and women) to pull this off.
Scientist, feminist, and altruistic justice fighter Patience Chiappini joins me for a word on the direction and current state of gender differences in the workplace, specifically STEM majors where talent may go overlooked or underappreciated. There were several good points that raised questions on the theoretical "Sweet Spot" Between gender equality and occupational utilitarianism. I learned a lot and got a few good recommendations I'll soon be lining my bookshelves with. Book Review, perhaps?
I hope you enjoy and take something away from this episode!

Hype can't describe me enough right now! JD, experienced comedian, avid fellow gamer and a very dear friend, hops in the whip for a reunion chat! In this episode we're imparting knowledge of self, and how to be comfortable with failure. We're also going on some tangents you may know of.

In our Pilot Episode, physics tutor, lead singer and Chess player Phil Ershadi joins me for a talk about the education system's shortcoming for this generation's pursuit of their side hustles. Why is it that schools have changed their approach by accommodating our time (online school) rather than our passions and things we're good at? I feel like more questions came from the answers and discussion, and we would definitely need to revisit this topic!
