Ah, the dawn of a bright new beautiful Monday! Well, somewhere, I guess. How about we take David Waldman and Greg Dworkin and check out some other countries for a while, for a breather? Ordinarily, we would not be looking to the Middle East for inspiration, but suddenly Syria is standing for freedom. You'd hardly know about it from the American mainstream media… you'd hardly know anything from them… but there's plenty of other sources to discover at Blue Sky, Threads, and you know… others. At exTwitter, there's Tammam Aloudat's positive assessment. There's Alex Simon's appraisal of the Syrian prison “system”. Threads has Charles Lister with the international repercussions emanating from Syria's takeover by rebel forces. Blue Sky has more than just savvy individuals as well, it has an excellent news search. Then there's Romania. Romania, Romania, rhymes with Albania, which makes it easy to remember their tasty food, bawdy cooks, NOT chrome, and now election integrity, following a presidential vote recount after discovering Russian interference. Ok, that's the good news. Here are the takeaways from D's Meet the Press interview, which unfortunately did not conclude with him being taken away. The kakistocracy has already filled the bowl up to the seat but isn't close to stopping. The world's most powerful traffic court lawyer, Alina Habba raises the number of blond leggy presidential advisors to “Austin Powers” levels. Journalist David Corn moves up a dozen slots on the administration shitlist with his history of Kash Patel, future director of the US Staatssicherheit.

Alex Simon was recognised as the strongest man in Australian history & third strongest in the world. The former strongman now cage fighter is the physical personification of confidence & brute force but as Alex describes, it's not always how he felt.He spoke of an insecure young boy trying to find his place in the world, how a group of young mates & outlaw behaviour led him to a stint in a maximum security prison, how he discovered his potential between the walls of that prison & how he turned his life towards the noble pursuit of self understanding & excellence.An incredibly vulnerable conversation that proves there is far more than meets the eye to the man they call 'Godly Strong'. Alex was kind enough to give me his time in the lead up to his fight with former Australian heavyweight boxing champion & NRL legend John Hopoate & I wish him the very best in his preparations.If you found this conversation valuable, subscribe to the channel so that I can continue to attract the best guests for you to learn from & enjoy their incredible stories.
