“Mike and Euvie,
First I want to say that your podcast has tapped into something that no other show/podcast has done. You both get it. It seems that you are able to research and find the right topics for the era we live in. Incredible work. You have tapped into subjects that every human should hear in this hyper-technological, dopamine-driven feedback loop, short-term fix, rivalry driven world. With so many negative outputs hitting our senses, your podcast gives people the tools, thoughts, and examples of how we can make the world we live in so much more positive and well-worth making a difference for.
I can say that it's changed the basis of my understanding, doubts, and cynicism on why the way the world is what it is today, but how we as a super informed, technologically driven generation can have an impact and change things for the better.
Since I can remember, I've always asked "why". Why is the world, and specifically my country (USA) and it's people following the same path that so many other major powers in history have followed and eventually met its demise? When I think about this, it's hard not to think that no matter what I choose to do, I am another cog in the massive machine that cannot be altered or changed. Obviously, this is not a new thought. Many people think this way.
After listening to the majority of your podcasts I was able to alter the basis of my thinking, approach these hard questions through a new lens outside of what was instilled into me through nurture, society, my friends, coworkers, etc.
As a new parent with 2 adopted kids (5&7 yrs old), the ease at which society and the American education system breaks their creativity shoves them in a box, and "prepares them for college" keeps me up at night. I'm afraid that they won't get to be who they actually want to be, and that the quality of education won't spark their intelligent minds.
I say all of that to say, the subjects that both of you explore and bring to a mass audience can even help parents to better feed their kids' malleable and hungry minds by looking at life and our part in it through a different lens. If we want to change the world, we have to start with how we teach our children.
Thank you for what you do. Incredible. Thoughtful. Intelligent. The future...”Read full review »
