THE SCALE OF IT ALL

I’ve already had a few people on the show but I have to say Clay from the Youtube channel Clay Tall stories has been a very refreshing addition to this podcast. He’s a musician, YouTuber a home steader and a survivalist who currently resides here in New Zealand, his home country. We talk about life surviving in the bush, how to build a successful YouTube channel and eventually live off your art among other things , I can tell you this is one of the realest conversations that I’ve had this year on the show, this is a talk with a real kiwi wild man.

James is a man on a mission to circumnavigate the globe by sailboat. Solo. He’s the owner of the good boat Tritiea who has left the shores of Los Angeles across to Hawaii down to the Pacific islands of french polynesia and is now docked in the shores of New Zealand. He continues to make his way around the globe with a pace that is no faster than walking. I ask him about what it takes to take on a mission to circle the globe solo, on the open seas the challenges and perils within. This is a talk with a solo sailor.

Back in 2017, a strange light flashed through the solar system. A mysterious cigar-shaped object from the constellation Lyra was spotted tumbling through space was thought to be an alien spacecraft sent to investigate Earth, or so astronomers from Harvard University have suggested. Scientists put forth several eye-popping theories from that brief glance: Maybe it was a piece of discarded alien technology, maybe it was a probe, maybe it was just a comet. Professor Abraham Loeb is a at the forefront of this scientific puzzle. He has spent a majority of his time finding the answers to one of life’s most tantalizing question. Are we alone? This is talk with a Harvard Astrophysicist.

A few days prior to this podcast I already realized this was not going to be like any other podcast that I have done. Mirsad Solakovic is a survivor of the Bosnian war in the early 90’s his remarkably detailed and harrowing account of the war is by no means a subject matter to be taken lightly. The Bosnian War was an international armed conflict that took place in Bosnia and Herzegovina between 1992 and 1995. We urge you to do your independent research to further understand this conflict as it is still a sensitive one. This a talk with a genocide survivor. Discretion is advised. You can connect with Mirsad Solakovic @mickey_solak on Instagram and get his book ‘THE BOY WHO SAID NOTHING in https://relinks.me/B07F99GGW9

We talk about the topic of feminism and try to demystify this seemingly convoluted issue that is being recognized more and more especially in this day and age. We also talk briefly about our shared passion for the horror genre in film.
