Listening to Ep 148 of You Are Not So Smart - Rule Makers & Rule Breakers. There’s some really interesting information in relation to some of the tribalism, decision making, rules and culture of a given group, region, etc. My thoughts based on what i’ve listened to are that society tends to fall under “loose” or “tight” cultures, where in one people might have more freedom and in others people are scrutinized and controlled more. This can be driven by uncertainty, outside threats, etc. and people’s inclination of moving towards less freedom is often due to a desire for stability even if ultimately they will be unhappy under a stricter regime.
The episode was quite interesting and its given me something new to consider when looking at the state of things.

another podcast i love ended its run in Oct last year (Oh No Ross & Carrie). I had caught up around early October and jumped over to another one to catch up there as well, and today i noticed that ONRAC had released a single episode in the time i hadn’t listened to it and it was a short farewell. Seems like something major happened to one of the hosts, hope they’re ok

I’m still sad about that one. The awkward, sudden way it ended and the hosts recording separate goodbye messages left a lot of people speculating that the hosts themselves had some kind of falling out, but nobody knows for sure. All I know is that it was a horrible way for a beloved 13 year old podcast to end, and while Ross said he’d be moving on to new projects, I haven’t heard a single peep from him since ONRAC ended.

It was very sad to find out for me today. I’ll have to look around for something to replace it, just not sure what type of podcast i want to sub in

Still catching up on episodes of You Are Not So Smart, and it’s just so good.
Current nugget of wisdom from episode 203:
The call to purpose does not lie within you, it lies with the needs of others
