In this provocative and no-fluff episode of Keyboard Samurai, host, Wil Kluv, sits down with Dani Woolf and Ben Siegel to unpack what's broken in how cybersecurity vendors go to market and how to fix it using real buyer data and a deeper understanding of human psychology. Dani and Ben, co-founders of CyberSynapse and veterans of cybersecurity GTM, break down why so many tech marketers are stuck in echo chambers, how pressure from investors leads to safe (but disconnected) strategies, and why most teams are making decisions without actual buyer validation. They explore the psychological barriers to change, why the “herd mentality” is sabotaging innovation, and how to replace opinion with evidence through first-party qualitative research. They also take on the traditional analyst model, offering sharp critique and a more human, scalable alternative rooted in community-sourced insight.

We come across different situations in our lives. Some of them require smart solutions and quick reactions. Where do we park a car if the parking lot is full? Who is to blame for the broken glass on the floor if no-one confesses? And how do we train ourselves to act wisely in each situation without thinking too much about it?  Riddles are a perfect type of gym for our brains. In each riddle we have to make quick decisions in order to solve puzzles that are sometimes life changing for the main characters. But no worries, no character will get hurt in real life. Only you will get smarter and quicker in your decisions.

Our brain, much like our muscles, benefits from its own form of exercise. Through dedicated training and stimulation, we can enhance our cognitive abilities, a testament to the remarkable phenomenon known as ‘neural plasticity'. Neural plasticity is the brain's remarkable ability to adapt and reorganise itself. According to the Foundation for Brain Research, when we encounter a new concept, our brain responds by forging fresh neural connections. With consistent practice, these connections grow stronger and more efficient, leading to improved performance. What is Neural Plasticity? Can Intelligence Be Enhanced? What role does a healthy lifestyle play? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: Can you train your brain like a muscle?

How can we build mental resilience and protect our brain health starting now?In this new Feisty series, co-hosted by Sara Gross and Dr. Erin Ayala, we're diving into the intersection of brain health, stress, and performance.

In this week's episode, we dive into the viral return of crash diets—from Vogue's 1970s wine-and-eggs plan to the wider culture of extreme restriction. Why are these outdated ideas resurfacing, and what do they say about the wellness world today? Raw milk is everywhere on TikTok, praised by influencers and wellness personalities. But is it really a nutritional powerhouse—or just a risky trend in disguise? We explore the facts, the fear, and the politics behind the hype. New research suggests we may have reached the peak of human intelligence. Are modern lifestyles making us less focused and less capable of deep thinking? We unpack the science and what it could mean for our future. We also take a closer look at the wholegrain debate—are they truly a health essential, or have they been overhyped? We break down the benefits, the drawbacks, and why refined grains shouldn't always be the enemy. Plus, Ella shares her latest updates from New York, Rhiannon reveals her verdict on sweet vs savoury breakfasts, and we answer a listener question on whether a sweet start to the day can still be balanced and nourishing.

What if the greatest barrier to your success isn't what you don't know, but what you think you know that simply isn't so? This episode explores the subtle architecture of stupidity – not as a personal failing, but as a series of distinct patterns that emerge in all human thinking. We'll journey through seven varieties, from the straightforward lack of cognitive ability to the more insidious systemic stupidity that quietly infects organizations and societies. You'll discover how the most brilliant minds often fall prey to overthinking stupidity, rejecting elegant solutions in favor of complex ones. We'll examine how groups collectively generate stupidity that no individual would create alone, and how our identities and egos become entangled with ideas, making us defend positions that no longer serve us or reflect reality. Learnings: Build decision-making systems that protect against collective cognitive blindspots Identify which stupidity patterns you are prone to. Develop your intellectual honesty muscle using "What would convince me I'm wrong?" Join us in reimagining how we think about thinking – because understanding stupidity might be the most intelligent thing we can do. Upgrade to Premium:

Our brain, much like our muscles, benefits from its own form of exercise. Through dedicated training and stimulation, we can enhance our cognitive abilities, a testament to the remarkable phenomenon known as ‘neural plasticity'. Neural plasticity is the brain's remarkable ability to adapt and reorganise itself. According to the Foundation for Brain Research, when we encounter a new concept, our brain responds by forging fresh neural connections. With consistent practice, these connections grow stronger and more efficient, leading to improved performance. What is Neural Plasticity? Can Intelligence Be Enhanced? What role does a healthy lifestyle play? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: Can you train your brain like a muscle?

To novices and outsiders, the practice of investing can appear intimidating and overwhelming.  However, despite the seemingly high barriers to entry and understanding market dynamics, an investor's IQ matters less than their ability to be disciplined, patient, and emotionally detached from their investments. In fact, this applies even more to newcomers than it does to seasoned investors, as working with more capital can make it difficult to find impactful investments compared to a modest portfolio.  As you grow in your investing practice, those added complications can be countered by an expanded circle of competence and deeper market knowledge. This week, Phil and Danielle discuss how an investor's mental state and learned habits can aid their investing journey more than their sheer brain power.  They also dig into the ongoing antitrust trial over Google's practices and what the outcome could mean for the tech world.
