Along the way, there is a conversation around how the world changes when one is less than physically perfect and how that impacts everything from shopping to riding an elevator. The conversation dives into the risks of over-relying on physical abilities to define one's life and the fears that rise when those abilities are challenged.

    Okay, but Where are the Aliens?

    In this episode, Jeffrey dives into the topic that is all their rage these days. Aliens, ET, flying saucers and all the other common tropes about beings from other planets visiting our little blue planet! Jeffrey discusses the Fermi Paradox and the statistical likelihood that alien lifeforms exist and specifically the likelihood that intelligent alien lifeforms exist. The second half of the episode dives into the reasons why the Fermi Paradox is not that paradoxical at this point and the reason why assuming we would have seen alien life forms or received messages from other beings across the universe is rather arrogant for humanity at this stage in our existence.

    Anyone Can Become A Dictator

    In this episode, Jeffrey starts out assertive with the belief that anyone, yes anyone, can become a dictator. He then walks through examples of how owning a dog, having kids, attending work meetings and more illustrate the inner dictator within all of us. In the second half of the episode, Jeffrey outlines the slow pathway from common man to the out-of-touch leader and how easy it is to fall prey to the trappings of power. Think you could never become a dictator? Dive on in to find out just how often we already illustrate the traits necessary to rule today. And we'd get away with it, if it wasn't for those meddling things like laws and order.

    Off-Ramps for the Russia-Ukraine War

    In this episode, Jeffrey takes a seat as an armchair military strategist to discuss potential off-ramps for both sides in this ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine. No one wins when bullets start flying but all wars eventually have to end and lives need to return to normal. We evaluate the most likely outcomes for victory from both the Ukrainian and Russian sides of this conflict while also establishing that Russia has already lost the strategic initiative in this conflict. Outlining 6 different off-ramps (2 for Ukraine and 4 for Russia), it is clear that the violence will unfortunately continue for the foreseeable future and that the pathway of the strong-man authoritarian leader are not always easy to navigate.

    Only You Can Prevent Inflation

If coronavirus defined 2020 and 2021, the war in Ukraine and inflation around the world will define 2022.

Rest assured, while inflation will dominate the headlines, you can pull back and save some of your sanity - not to mention dollars or Euros - with some of the simple steps being outlined here.

    The Hitler Leadership Problem

    In this episode Jeffrey breaks down an issue that befalls people, companies, and countries since time immemorial. The issue of talented leaders going awry and pulling other people down the wrong path in their efforts. A condition dubbed 'The Hitler Leadership Problem', Jeffrey breaks this down using a real world example and explains why sometimes it is better to hire the less impassioned employee, even when conventional wisdom might say otherwise. To be abundantly clear, Hitler was a terrible person, but there are lessons to learn about how one man who came from nothing managed to convince an entire nation to start a war that killed tens of millions and fundamentally re-shaped the world as we know it today.
