189. Why Most Investments Are Bad, Did We Fake the Moon Landing, and the GOAT Quote
Welcome to the Alfalfa Podcast 🌾
👉 http://alfalfapod.com
This episode explores two main themes: the ethics and impacts of student-led protests in response to global injustices, and the significant roles that quotes play in our lives, from conveying deep wisdom to sharing humorous truths. The first segment delves into the motivations, methods, and moral questions surrounding student activism on college campuses, especially regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the influence of social media and Western perspectives on these movements. The co-hosts discuss the fine line between drawing attention to a cause and the unintended consequences that may arise, reflecting on historical precedents and the current state of youth activism. The second segment shifts to a lighter conversation on the enduring power of quotes, examining how these succinct expressions of wisdom, humor, and truth resonate through their ability to encapsulate life's complexities, offering personal insights and broader reflections on the human condition. Together, these discussions offer a multifaceted look at how we engage with the ideas and movements that shape our world.

Customer Reviews
Do It Now
If you aren’t listening to this podcast, what are you doing?? Seriously though
Wanna be called the “smart one” out of your friends?
TL;DR
These guys make me look smarter in front of my friends.
These 4 humans cover aspects of investing and controversial topics around politics, culture, and life. But what really makes it interesting is their unfiltered opinions about everything.
Esp Stephen’s, this guy likes to play on the edges and reminds me of Steven Crowder from “Change My Mind” meme. Oddly, he even looks like him.
You’ll find Eric’s nostrils flaring at times on Stephen comments, also bc he’s more logic driven financial guy so he may not agree to everything you might say.
Nick, the art guy, has a very unique perspective about everything, and you might think what a painter might know about investing, and boy, was I wrong? He’s the real DEAL.
Last but not the least, Arman. He’s like a mother trying to keep all her crazy kids together at one place and brings them home. He performs autopsy on every topic as if pathology was his alternate career choice. BTW, he’d great at that too.
You can already make that out by now that I can write a whole book on these guys and that’s bc they make you feel like you’re a part of their gang. And that’s why I love watching or hysterically laughing listening to Alfalfa while working out.
If you haven’t subscribed to them yet, you’re missing out being called the smart one out of your dumb friends.
The resource I’ve been looking for
I’m fairly new to the crypto world. I have found it pretty hard to learn about crypto on youtube since everyone wants to either sell a course or try to push people to buy the coin they own. I have listened to Arman talking about crypto and NFT and man this guy is full of knowledge and this podcast is the proof!
