    Hypnotized: A World Distracted | Ep. 83

    Flying cars, elections, data centers in space, website hacks, heat ray laser guns, and the constant push to buy everything imaginable—all day, every day. From the moment we wake up, our algorithms go to work on us, distracting us at every turn with nonsense while selling us everything under the sun. We’re completely hypnotized, and some of us don’t even realize it’s happening. It’s time to pump the brakes, reverse the curse, and de-hypnotize. In this episode, I try to find a solution, and it turns out to be something we all have in us and know very well. You can still have fun and shoot hoop, even when all you’ve got is a backboard without a rim. Meet Me In The Glitch every Friday.

    Stop Lying to Yourself | Ep. 82

    Silkk the Shocker once said, “You Ain’t Gotta Lie to Kick It,” and that couldn’t be more true. We’ve all lied to ourselves at some point, believing a story we tell ourselves that doesn’t quite match reality. From Carl Lewis convincing himself he could sing to the NBA turning a blind eye to Miami-era LeBron, self-deception comes in many forms. In this episode, I break down why we do it and how to stop—because we all need to stop lying to ourselves. Meet Me In The Glitch every Friday.

    Detect That Parasite: Our Fading Moral Code | Ep #81

    Livestreamed executions? Crypto scams, poisonous algorithms, and AI tools with zero morals. Parasites have been around for millions of years, surviving and reproducing by exploiting a host. Is that what’s happening right now? Are we creating the very parasite that will infect us all—and eventually destroy us? It feels like old-school morals and decency are dying, replaced by a way of living that’s poisonous to us all. We need to stop, check ourselves, and remember that decency matters. Standing firm in your principles takes strength. Blindly following what everyone else is doing—or fighting for something just because everyone else is—is weakness. Be careful out there. Detect that parasite. Catch new episodes of The Ben Stortini Show every Friday—hope you'll join the journey!

    Ageing: In The Age Of A.I | Ep #80 With Omar Rowe

    As we get older, cognitive decline becomes a growing concern. Now that so many of us rely on AI for even the simplest answers, could we be letting our minds get too comfortable? Could that reliance speed up mental decline? Are we headed for “mind mush”? My good friend Omar Rowe returns to the show, fresh off turning 50, to talk about ageing in the age of AI—and whether outsourcing our thinking could create challenges for our minds that previous generations never faced.

    Sober: Or Trying Hard | Ep #79

    This one is for anyone who’s tired of feeling terrible—tired of being depressed, sick, and in pain while your body screams at you every day to get sober, but you feel like you can’t. It’s also for those who are sober and want to stay that way. I quit drinking in 2019 and have been sober ever since. I want this episode to be something you can come back to anytime you need a reminder of why you got sober—or why you want to take that first step. I really hope this helps someone out there who desperately needs it, because I made this for you. Catch new episodes of The Ben Stortini Show every Friday—hope you'll join the journey!

    Family Matters: Divorce Through a Child’s Eyes | Ep #78

    My parents divorced when I was 10. I had so many questions, blamed myself and couldn’t understand why. Now, I’m watching friends and family experience divorce with kids caught in the middle—and my first thought is always about them. If your children won’t open up, remember: they’re listening and watching. Keep showing them love and showing them you’re trying. I also review the incredible new Erykah Badu album produced by The Alchemist and share a bachelor-party story involving Eric Lindros and Elvis Stojko that might go down in Canadian history. Turn down the lights, take a deep breath and time-travel with me. Catch new episodes of The Ben Stortini Show every Friday—hope you'll join the journey!

    Next-Life Training Theory | Ep #77 - Purpose, AI Takeover & What Could Have Been?

    The Next-Life Training Theory suggests that each lifetime unknowingly prepares us for the next, carrying our abilities forward until we fulfil our ultimate purpose. This idea came to me while running and wondering why we work so hard if we eventually turn to dust. Maybe it was inspired by Daemon or recent discussions about AI and human extinction—but I had to explore it. I also reflect on a single moment that changed the course of my life. What moment changed yours? Life can be one funny dude, can’t it? Catch new episodes of The Ben Stortini Show every Friday—hope you'll join the journey!

    Bone Thugs-N-Golfing | Ep #76 - Muskoka Bachelor Party & 9/11 Memories

    My best friend is getting married, and we spent his bachelor party at an incredible Muskoka cottage on the water. I left feeling blessed, proud, and inspired after a competitive weekend of foosball, ping pong, pickleball—and even a little golf. There was also a dock, a little too much green, and Pickleball TV. I’m sharing the full weekend, my 9/11 story as we approach the 25th anniversary, and one more question: do you believe in Sasquatch?
