In this episode, I talk about the Texas Ibogaine initiative featured on the Joe Rogan Experience. I share my own history using opioids, including the life-saving impact Ibogaine had on me. Rick Perry and Brian Hubbard’s advocacy has Texas leading the charge and I’ve never been more proud to be a Texan. They’ve secured $100
Demons, Hoops, Kings, Woke Women
I start this episode talking about March Madness, specifically the UConn vs. Duke game. Duke led 40-21 at one point, but late in the game, one of the Boozer boys made a critical mistake. It was the most boneheaded move since Chris Webber called a timeout he didn’t have. Then I dive into the book
March Madness, Visual Acuity, Uncomfortable Conversations
In this episode, I share my trip to Lake Charles for March Madness. I met up with good friend and former guest, Michael D’Albor, at L’Auberge, which has a sportsbook & heated pools. Then I get into visual acuity and its importance, especially for baseball players. I talk about having uncomfortable but necessary conversations with
Iran: How We Got Here
I start this episode talking about the escalating conflict with Iran and the potential fallout. Wars often ripple through geopolitics, markets, and everyday life. We’ll discuss all that. And how war is the sort of thing that forces you to reckon with how quickly the world can change. Then I reflect on the passing of
Mardi Gras, Mexican Cartels, Nazi Olympics
I start this episode with ‘funnies’ from the past week, then get into the Winter Olympics in Milan. How thrilling would it be to have a luge track nearby that you could use? Problem is there are only four of them in America. In this episode, I break down the differences between luge, skeleton, and
Why the Long Face?
In this episode, I share my ‘physiognomical theory of everything,’ and what could unaffectionately be referred to as “communist face.” Here I discuss facial structures, perceived softness, and why certain public figures project a collectivist energy based solely on appearance. This eventually turns into a broader conversation about leadership, optics, and testosterone (or lack thereof).
How to Fail, FBI Raid, Ilhan Omar, Greenland, Feminization of Institutions
This solo episode opens with a few recent travel stories. Then I share highlights from my favorite Scott Adams book: How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big. He shares ideas on stacking skill sets, systems over goals, using failure as feedback, and why usefulnenss, consistency, and energy management, are the most important
Everything You Don’t See, Regret Minimization, Nicotine vs. Tobacco
This week’s solo episode I pick back up with Morgan Housel’s The Art of Spending Money. As I read through it, the book continues to prove how much of our relationship with money is shaped by our upbringing and expectations. I discuss why contentment matters as much as income, why comparison is not only the
Sluts & Cocaine, 9/11 Aftermath, Psychedelic Therapy
I’m back solo this week. Thanks for your patience – there was no episode last week. I’m in Houston trying to figure out the best path forward to finally cure my neck issues. In this episode, I give a quick recap of last week’s intense discussion on ibogaine and psychedelic therapy. Feedback from that episode
AI Optimism vs. Dot-Com Mania, Museum of Prostitution, Party at the Plateau (from Costa Rica)
Solo again from Costa Rica. We’re soaking in the beach sun,, hiking in nature a little, and overall enjoying a slower pace than what we had in Warsaw or Prague. In this episode, I dive into the AI revolution and what investors can learn from the dot-com bubble 25 years ago. I talk about how
As It Was, Kyren Lacy, Juiced Returns (from Costa Rica)
Coming to you solo again from beautiful Costa Rica, which means “rich coast.” I’ve had lots of time to think here, while working on my tan and watching surfers in the Pacific Ocean from our balcony. In this episode, I talk about life, travel, and things on my mind lately—specifically the Kyren Lacy tragedy, which
