hello and welcome to my latest episode, which is just me rambling on my smart phone just like the very first episodes.

From the food we eat to the miles we run, everything deserves to be fully experienced—not just consumed. In this episode, I reflect on the ethics of what we take for granted, the importance of slowing down, and the necessity of suffering for growth. I talk about hot pod yoga, marathon training, and pushing through the edge of exertion, even when it leads to migraines. Plus, a look at how real empathy—not just discipline—shapes the way we guide the next generation.If you enjoyed this episode please listen to more, subscribe or follow. follow on https://www.instagram.com/jackthalford/

yes we can forget our virtues sometimes, especially when struggling with desire, desire is pain and struggle. But instead of chasing desires, we should instead lead with our morals, our virtues, with skepticism and continually try to grow and learn more. Failure is part of the process and something that should be analysed for future efforts. if you want to succeed you must keep going.follow me on instagram please, jazz mate https://www.instagram.com/jackthalford/

Natures Power, Creative Libertarianism and The Rise of Misogyny. in this episode we cover a lot in a short space of time, apologies for the colourful filter, I think I set the frequency of my camera to the wrong frame rate or something and it didn't like the lights and was flashing a lot so I shall experiment with that before the next one! anyway, I created this filter myself by messing around with different tools in da Vinci resolveif you enjoyed this head to: https://www.jackhalford.com/ to listen to more or buy some of my stuff, appreciate ya, have a safe journey home xx
