    The Power of Assertion

    The Power of Assertion

    Another trip down a random collection of topics that can loosely be connected by the idea of just going with it. Less self deprecation to get in the way of the “Here it is, take it or leave it.” We cover an original screenplay idea, the power of assertion, the exceptionality of the original Tron, the muppet show, and a new original game.

    Leaving a Bad Review and Primate Reckonings

    Leaving a Bad Review and Primate Reckonings

    In this episode, we delve shin deep into the inner workings of the mind as it experiences an unpleasant situation and then relieves itself by raging at the tops of the mountains of social media. In other words, why do we leave a bad review when things don't go as we thought they should.

    And then we somehow tie that into the relationship between what we know as humans versus what primates know. Do we really know that much more and do we really have anything figured out. Probably not.
