Charlie welcomes Dr. Gad Saad, Professor of Marketing at Concordia University (Montreal, Canada), and former holder of the Concordia University Research Chair in Evolutionary Behavioral Sciences and Darwinian Consumption. He has held Visiting Associate Professorships at Cornell University, Dartmouth College, and is the author of "The Parasitic Mind." One of the most entertaining and insightful guests we've had on the show, Charlie and Dr. Saad discuss the postmodernists' mental pathogens that are at work in America's most prominent institutions, deconstructing the physical realities and absolute truths of existence. Dr. Saad walks through how these mental parasites have led America to the "abyss of infinite insanity" including the corruption of gender identities, basic ideas of law and order, and timeless truths that built the West. This is a powerful conversation if you want to understand the underlying root causes for some of our day's most chaotic and destructive movements on the progressive left.

Why does a scarcity mindset show up? I've seen scarcity mindset show up in property investors over knowledge, time, right location, not feeling good enough, not having the right lifestyle, finances… is that a normal feeling?

In September, the 10K crew went on location to the 2017 Ontario Universities’ Fair, to interview a dozen higher ed leaders about trends in innovation. Benoit-Antoine Bacon holds a PhD in neuropsychology, and has 14 years of experience in university administration at Bishop’s University (2004-2013), Concordia University Montreal (2013-16), and Queen’s University (2016-18). After this interview, he was appointed President and Vice-Chancellor of Carleton University, effective July 1 2018. Ken had a wide-ranging, hour-long discussion with Benoit, which has been edited down to just 11 minutes in this special bonus episode, to focus on 3 key questions about higher ed innovation. Innovations at Queen’s? Benoit starts with Queen’s new $100-million Innovation & Wellness Centre, which will combine centralized student health and wellness supports, and custom-designed entrepreneurship and innovation space. He also points to a brand new mental health initiative to “embed” counselors in faculty and residence offices. Queen’s has also been investing $1 million+ every year in new active learning classrooms, like those in Ellis Hall, and is finding them in great demand and having significant impact on student learning. There is also international attention on Queen’s “Major Maps,” which outline extracurricular and experiential opportunities to enhance every undergraduate degree, and potential career outcomes. The Decade Ahead? Benoit emphasizes that the convergence of geopolitical, technological and societal pressures will make the next ten years absolutely critical, and identifies 4 things that will be key. In an increasingly global and diverse world, universities have a central role in fostering inclusion and helping people live together. Curricula, hiring, and even university symbols need to be reconsidered in a diverse and inclusive environment – not just to be nice, but because institutional success depends on attracting and retaining the world’s best talent. Universities also have to decide whether they will be local or global in their focus. The NYU “transnational” model is impressive but likely unique. Universities also need to take a fully-integrated, strategic approach to digital technologies, often appointing an academic CIO or a Vice-Provost Digital Planning. Research will continue to become more and more interdisciplinary in order to address the world’s big challenges and issues. But Benoit believes the biggest disruption over the next 10 years will be a shift toward measuring student learning outcomes and skills instead of traditional inputs. Culture of Innovation? Benoit believes senior leaders need to avoid blocking innovation, instead creating a culture of “saying yes.” In fact, risk-aversion might be the greatest risk that universities run today, so leaders need to shift to a culture of intelligent, measured risk-taking. Benoit says that “everything starts with hiring” for innovation instead of the status quo, from the top on down. Benoit concludes that there are many things you can do to shift institutional culture quicker than people might think.

OUTSpoken Boyz with be talking with Becky Morgan – Missouri Chapter Leader, Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. The national Moms Demand Action website: www.momsdemandaction.org Our gun safety program called BeSMART: www.BeSMARTforKids.org Much like Mothers Against Drunk Driving was created to reduce drunk driving, Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America (www.momsdemandaction.org) was created to advocate for stronger laws and policies that will reduce gun violence and save lives. We are a non-partisan grassroots movement of American mothers demanding common-sense solutions to address our country’s dangerous culture of gun violence, which jeopardizes the safety of our children and families. America is in a state of crisis: every day, 88 Americans are killed with guns. This violence affects everyone, everywhere – from big cities to small towns to rural communities – and as mothers, we can no longer wait for politics to catch up to the policies we need. We can support the Second Amendment while doing so much more to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people and make our communities safer. That’s why we advocate for the following goals: 1. Close the deadly loopholes in our background check system that allow minors and dangerous people like felons and domestic abusers easy access to guns. 2. Promote gun safety so that America’s children will no longer be exposed to unacceptable levels of risk. 3. Support reasonable limits on where, when and how loaded guns are carried and used in public. 4. Create enforceable laws that address gun trafficking and fraudulent purchasing to keep illegal guns off our streets. It is time for our government to enact common-sense gun laws supported by 90 percent of the American people: if our elected officials will not protect our children and families, we will find leaders who will. For too long, the conversation about gun violence in America has been controlled by those who stand to profit from easy access to guns. In the meantime, American families continue to be destroyed by gun violence. Mothers have had enough. Since our inception after the Sandy Hook Elementary mass shooting, Moms Demand Action has mobilized mothers across the country to become the largest grassroots movement working to reduce gun violence. Moms Demand Action is a program of Everytown for Gun Safety, the largest gun violence prevention advocacy organization in the country, with more than 3.5 million grassroots supporters For more information on joining, volunteering, finding a local chapter, or donating, please go to momsdemandaction.org ———– OUTSpoken also talks with Austin Head from POSITIVE YOUTH Austin Head has achieved distinction by succeeding in his performance art at every step of development with a mission to bring something unique and innovative to entertainment.
