9/11 and the Value of Story

We all value different things, right? Some people say they value money and success, others love and connection, while others still might claim to value causes such as social justice or climate action. But are the things we say we value born out by our actions? What about story -- is that something we value as a society? As we mark the 21st anniversary of the tragic 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York, we can still feel the repercussions of that event rippling through the very fabric of our consciousness. With the benefit of hindsight, we can clearly see how the 9/11 story was used to usher in societal change, so why shouldn't we value story as much as those willing to use it as a weapon against us? Can we take control of the narrative? ### Episode Links ### What is Self Actualization (Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs)?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfHw60YGS_E Interesting article of highest value around the world: https://www.movehub.com/blog/what-matters-most-map/ What do Employees Value Most? https://www.mimeo.com/blog/what-do-employees-value-the-most/ What do Young People Value (World Economic Forum)? https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/01/what-do-young-people-value/ Zeitgeist: The Movie: https://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/watch-now

Interview: Andrew Roberts

A companion for podcast episode "NSP042 – COVID-19 was just a story", I spoke to Andrew Roberts, a veteran Melbourne comedian of 15 years who found new purpose when the tyranny of Melbourne's COVID-19 lockdowns struck back in 2020. Andrew was amongst the first to hit the streets in protest, and was harassed, assaulted and detained by police. He was ostracized by family, friends and much of the comedy community for his views, and banned on social media. Despite this, Andrew continued to find humor in the situation, and believes the actions of the protesters were instrumental in winning the war against Dan Andrews and tyrannical regime. Believe what you will about the extreme restrictions inflicted on Melbourne during the COVID-19 pandemic, Andrew's story is one of principled persistence and courage. Let's hear him challenge the narrative.

COVID-19 was just a story

The COVID-19 pandemic majorly affected the entire world. But now that the data is in, and the pandemic is seemingly in it's final phase; with the benefit of hindsight, does our global response seem proportionate? Have those of us who had doubts and questions in the midst of an purported global apocalypse been vindicated in the long term? And do we even care anymore? Pandemic fatigue is real! But I guess we care just enough to have one last look at it! ### Episode Links ### Kary Mullis on the PCR test: https://www.brandnewtube.com/watch/pcr-test-inventor-kary-mullis-explains-why-it-is-not-a-diagnostic-tool_7jIyJEuwubWwYHr.html CDC changes the definition of "Vaccine" mid-pandemic: https://www.miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article254111268.html How Covid Happened (mass formation psychosis): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPisp_VgEO8 Comparing COVID-19 with previous pandemics: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/comparing-covid-19-with-previous-pandemics A timeline of the great reset agenda: https://sociable.co/government-and-policy/timeline-great-reset-agenda-event-201-pandemic-2020/ 8 predictions for the world in 2030 - the Great Reset video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hx3DhoLFO4s Bret Weinstein: I will be vindicated over Covid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLp9YMM7CI4 Oops, I said Moderna -- it was AstraZenica: https://www.forbes.com/sites/roberthart/2021/11/12/astrazeneca-will-now-profit-from-covid-vaccine-after-pledge-to-sell-at-cost-during-pandemic/

Stories we tell to control one another

Quarantine shaming and mask shaming are new concepts that have risen out of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, but cancel culture in general was shaming people before it was cool. These social pressures have rapidly become issues we have to deal with every day, especially those of us who entertain alternative views. But it wasn't always this way. Harv sits down (virtually) with film-maker, musician and podcaster Keith "Legion" Snyder to talk about his take on this new cultural phenomenon as a self-proclaimed but non-conforming millennial.

Stories That Create Panic

There has been a string of news stories lately that may give one the impression the world is falling apart. But is it the world, or just the narratives unravelling? Harv examines some of the strangeness going on in the world recently and tries to make sense of it all.

Alter Egos as a Tool for Success

Can you use alter-egos to achieve states of high performance? Todd Herman thinks you can, and his ideas seem to cross over with a lot of topics that have come up on Narratively Speaking as we follow this train of thought about story. Adem Koci from Podcasta Non Grata, once again joins Harv to talk about his use of alter egos in his podcasting, what it means to be creative, and of course a little touch of MK-Ultra mind control conspiracy theory! Join us - in Adam's own words it's a "good'un!" ### Episode Links ### Podcasta Non Grata #88 - Podcasta Perfecta: https://www.spreaker.com/user/ademk/podcasta-non-grata-88-podcasta-perfecta Todd Herman on London Real - The Alter Ego Effect (Short Clip): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKqbkqXzZF0 Todd Herman on London Real - The Alter Ego Effect (Full Interview Part 1/2): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V802DwBAMbk Beyoncé on Her Alter Ego, Sasha Fierce https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AA5G8vCl9w

Story Reveals Truth

Despite most people thinking they have a pretty good one, science tells us that people are pretty bad at detecting lies. But the very fact that we care so much says something about the value of truth to your average human. Why do we get angry when we're lied to? Does it have utility to survival, or is there something deeper going on? Could it be that information is the fundamental building block of the universe itself? Let's get speculative! ## Episode Links ## Anchorman - Saint Diego https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpVTP41Tpqc How good are people at detecting lies? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HzWwUCA498 Why Black Holes Could Delete The Universe – The Information Paradox https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWO-cvGETRQ Is Information Fundamental? https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/article/is-information-fundamental/ Vlatko Vedral: Everything is information https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfQ2r0zvyoA How Facebook Tracks Your Data | NYT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAO_3EvD3DY
