CD Broad called induction “the glory of science and the scandal of philosophy.” As a matter of habit, we're all confident that the sun will rise tomorrow morning and that we can predict where the planets and stars will be tomorrow night. But what's the rational justification for beliefs like this? According David Hume, there is none. Deductive justifications can't give you new information about the world, and inductive justifications are circular, they beg the question. David and Tamler dive into the notorious problem of induction and some (failed?) attempts to offer a resolution. Plus, an article about toddlers and small children who seem to remember their past lives – what should we make of these reports? And is "remembering a past life" and "being possessed by the ghost of that person" a distinction without a difference?

What does it mean to go “into the impossible”? For Professor of Cosmology Dr. Brian Keating, it's all about shattering the limiting beliefs around what a human being is capable of. In his latest book, Into the Impossible: Think Like a Nobel Prize Winner, Dr. Keating explores this question through the lens of the pursuit of one of humanity's highest achievements: The Nobel Prize. Today's episode is a wide-ranging conversation that touches on everything from the scientific method and first principles thinking, to the motivations that drive people to pursue the highest level of achievement.

[SEGMENT 1-1] Out with the old 1 Typewriter Slide projector Burn barrel Landlines Traditional alarm [SEGMENT 1-2] Out with the old 2 When Black people lost our traditions, we started on the downhill slide as a people. Paper takeout menus Phone books Telephone answering machines Rolodex Manuel carpet sweeper Here's the one you may not have realize… JOE BIDEN Joe Biden has been on an almost permanent vacation since he was deposed by the Democrats. And now Democrats have a single focus: cheat Harris into office. AG Garland warned people about protesting against the next cheat. What are the things Leftists no longer use? Their brains Common sense Critical thinking Deductive reasoning Can you imagine living in their minds, trying to make sense of their lives. Have you heard them describe their genders? [SEGMENT 1-3] Out with the old 3 Democrats want us to GET RID OF OUR OLD. We've been warned. Kamala Harris is FORMIDDABLE. UNBEATABLE. Ask yourself these questions: Why did the FBI or some 3-letter organization try to KILL TRUMP? And why are they still trying to get him in court? Check out this delusion: [X] SB – Scott Jennings… Harris campaign trolling Trump. Needling him. Playing offense. Trump zero for one. Traded in for a better candidate. Do y Democrats don't know when to stop digging their graves. A few years back, they had Trump on the ropes and they blew it. And they keep on doing it. The recent coup of Joe Biden caused a slight bump in their ambitions, as Democrats appointed Kamala Harris as their Great Indian-Wait-No-She's-Black Hope. But whatever bump they may have gotten, it's gone. And now Trump continues his surge. Any bump in Trump's numbers causes sheer panic for Democrats, which is why we get this news: Tuesday afternoon Democrat hack Special Counsel Jack Smith filed a superseding indictment in the 2020 Election case in D.C. District Court. Special counsel Jack Smith on Tuesday filed a superseding indictment in the election interference case against former President Donald Trump, slimming down the allegations against the 2024 presidential nominee in light of the Supreme Court's immunity ruling. Prosecutors have not dropped any of the four charges that they initially brought against the former president. However, the newly retooled indictment has carved out some of Trump's alleged conduct, including allegations about the attempts to use the Justice Department to promote his false claims of election fraud. The case will go nowhere. But that would never stop a Leftist from trying to do his or her part to keep Trump out of office. In this case, the disgraced prosecutor implies that he knows more than the SCOTUS judges who dismissed his previous case. Truthfully, Smith has a horrible record as a prosecutor, likely because he doesn't appear to concern himself with facts. The retooled indictment supposedly addresses raised by the Supreme Court's rulings in Fischer v. USA (re: the interpretation of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)) and Trump v. USA (on presidential immunity). I didn't bother to look at the details of this case because I know that Jack Smith is targeting Trump. Trump Sends a Thank You Note to Jack Smith If he hasn't done it already, Trump should send a "Thank you!" note to Jack Smith. Because every time Smith or some other Leftist thug comes after Trump, Trump's popularity and fundraising soars. But getting Trump is that important for Leftists, because they can't run the risk that doctoring the voting machine and relying on mail-in vote will be enough. [SEGMENT 1-4] Out with the old 4 [X] SB – Trump's SOTU to Dr Phil Safe country, wealthy, schools $85B in Afghanistan Did you see Harris recreate Trump coming down the escalator, only she led and her eunuch of a husband followed. Truly a “Bizarro World” picture as she tried to mock MAGA. Do you feel the undercurrent of the Trump voters? We are told that Trump is SCARED. Since WHEN have you seen Trump scared. [X] SB – Trump on Milley The debate has been solidified. And I can hardly wait.

#61 LIVE Session – Getting Realist with New Medical Schools—8C's for SuccessBut how are new medical schools successfully established?You would think this Herculean institution-building would induce a large body of literature about med-school-making but there is a big gap in the literature. In fact, the authors of today's paper assert that there is little published empirical evidence to date, nor any theory brought to bear on this phenomenon. The authors chose a Critical Realist lens and Institutional Entrepreneurship theory to design this study.Episode host: Jason FrankYou find the episode notes on the Papers Podcast websiteEpisode article: Kirubakaran, S., Kumar, K., Worley, P., Pimlott, J., & Greenhill, J.

Field Researchers continue to cite various forms of tree structures as firm evidence and/or proof of the existence of Sasquatch. Logical reasoning strategies are used to argue that only a Sasquatch could possibly create these structures based on the structure's size/height, configuration and location (among other factors). This apparently continues to fall on deaf ears or is otherwise viewed as insufficient proof within the scientific community, (what isn't!). In this episode, I will attempt to demonstrate how experimental design could be used to begin to scientifically explore attributions of tree structures to Sasquatch, while simultaneously controlling for the primary “rule out” influence of humans. This will be presented as a “work in progress” to illustrate how psychological experimental design can isolate the Sasquatch influence in creating these structures. Audience feedback and suggestions will be integrated into the experimental design as this represents a creative process best accomplished using multiple minds! Yet another “must see” for the experiential field researcher hoping to prove the existence of Sasquatch!!!This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4602609/advertisement
Episode 2375: Our featured article of the day is Logic.Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Sunday, 5 November 2023 is Logic.Logic is the study of correct reasoning. It includes both formal and informal logic. Formal logic is the science of deductively valid inferences or logical truths. It studies how conclusions follow from premises due to the structure of arguments alone, independent of their topic and content. Informal logic is associated with informal fallacies, critical thinking, and argumentation theory. It examines arguments expressed in natural language while formal logic uses formal language. When used as a countable noun, the term "a logic" refers to a logical formal system that articulates a proof system. Logic plays a central role in many fields, such as philosophy, mathematics, computer science, and linguistics.Logic studies arguments, which consist of a set of premises together with a conclusion. An example is the argument from the premises "it's Sunday" and "if it's Sunday then I don't have to work" to the conclusion "I don't have to work". Premises and conclusions express propositions or claims that can be true or false. An important feature of propositions is their internal structure. For example, complex propositions are made up of simpler propositions linked by logical vocabulary like ∧ {displaystyle land } (and) or → {displaystyle to } (if...then). Simple propositions also have parts, like "Sunday" or "work" in the example. The truth of a proposition usually depends on the meanings of all of its parts. However, this is not the case for logically true propositions. They are true only because of their logical structure independent of the specific meanings of the individual parts.Arguments can be either correct or incorrect. An argument is correct if its premises support its conclusion. Deductive arguments have the strongest form of support: if their premises are true then their conclusion must also be true. This is not the case for ampliative arguments, which arrive at genuinely new information not found in the premises. Many arguments in everyday discourse and the sciences are ampliative arguments. They are divided into inductive and abductive arguments. Inductive arguments are statistical generalizations, like inferring that all ravens are black based on many individual observations of black ravens. Abductive arguments are inferences to the best explanation, for example, when a doctor concludes that a patient has a certain disease which explains the symptoms they suffer. Arguments that fall short of the standards of correct reasoning often embody fallacies. Systems of logic are theoretical frameworks for assessing the correctness of arguments.Logic has been studied since antiquity. Early approaches include Aristotelian logic, Stoic logic, Nyaya, and Mohism. Aristotelian logic focuses on reasoning in the form of syllogisms. It was considered the main system of logic in the Western world until it was replaced by modern formal logic, which has its roots in the work of late 19th-century mathematicians such as Gottlob Frege. Today, the most used system is classical logic. It consists of propositional logic and first-order logic. Propositional logic only considers logical relations between full propositions. First-order logic also takes the internal parts of propositions into account, like predicates and quantifiers. Extended logics accept the basic intuitions behind classical logic and extend it to other fields, such as metaphysics, ethics, and epistemology. Deviant logics, on the other hand, reject certain classical intuitions and provide alternative explanations of the basic laws of logic.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 05:13 UTC on Sunday, 5 November 2023.For the full current version of the article, see Logic on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Joanna Neural.

What is deductive Bible study? What are the differences between deductive and inductive Bible study?
AUTO-GENERATED TRANSCRIPT:[ALLEN WEST]Hey, greetings, everyone. Lieutenant Colonel Allen West and welcome to Steadfast and Loyal.[MUSIC][ALLEN WEST]Hey, greetings everyone. Welcome back to Steadfast and Loyal. There's a lot going on up at Capitol Hill. As you know, I was there last week talking to some members of Congress about the National Defense Authorization Act. And we're joined by one of those members of Congress, Congressman and Dr. McCormack is a decorated veteran and emergency room. Position, who proudly serves Georgia's 6th Congressional District. In the United States House of Representatives during his tour deck, 2 decades of service, Congress Congressman McCormack deployed to several combat zones as a Marine Corps combat helicopter pilot. The Africa, Persian Gulf and Afghanistan between deployments, the congressman earned his Masters of Business Administration from National University. And a medical degree from Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta. In Congress, Congressman McCormack sits on the Armed Services Committee Foreign Affairs Committee, science, Space and Technology Committee, as well as a select subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic, and we're joined now with Congressman Rich McCormack, Dr. McCormack, United States Marine Corps, McCormack, Navy commander, Doctor. I mean, how many titles do you have, Sir?[REP. McCORMICK]And I was told as a young lad that titles don't. It's it's kind of like being a black belt. If you can't lay it down, then it doesn't really matter what your title is and and same thing with being a doctor. A lot of doctors out there that if you don't practice the caring medicine they're supposed to and same thing with congressman, you made a congressman. And not get anything done so. Hopefully I'm used by God with special utility.[ALLEN WEST]You're absolutely right. And one of the things that I admire, one of the things that I wanted to do when I was in Congress, there was to get more military veterans up there serving in Congress. Those men and women that understood their oath to the Constitution, what has it been like for you to be up there in Congress? I mean, coming from the Marine Corps, coming from the Navy. With a background in the medical field, what has it been like for you serving your constituents there in the 6th Congressional District of Georgia?[REP. McCORMICK]Well, first of all, thank you because you're -- you've absolutely been leading the way through Guardian fund and other ways of getting military people into Congress, getting minorities, getting women leading the way in this diverse movement of representation in the Republican Party that think it's very healthy. I think veterans, if nothing else, we've done one thing in our life. It wasn't about us. It was. About this great country of ours, and hopefully that continues in the Congress, that same mentality. I really have enjoyed constituent services better than. Anything that's one thing. We can control. Otherwise, you're one vote out of four and 35. You can rely on relationships, good legislative efforts and a. Lot of convincing to. Try to get bills passed but ultimately constituent. Service is the. One thing you get to actually directly affect making sure the attitude of your staff is. It's receptive, it's your hard working, it's your timely. Those things really matter to me and. Then listening to people. It's funny. Everybody thinks that. They are the people I'm supposed to represent and. Yes, they are. Along with 700 and. 75,000 other people in my district. Who have a variety of opinions on everything from a war or our war efforts in Ukraine to transgenderism, to abortion, to gun rights, to every controversial topic there is out there, and it's really important to try to be as educated as possible. The thing that. Surprised me the. Most and and I could see this is probably something that you you some of the primary system where it's really nasty. Against between people who are supposed to think very similar, but when you're in Congress, the thing that surprised me the most is how many people get stuck on talking points. They've been digging deep and and becoming educated, learning about the details of of of what we're arguing and why, and what's constitutional and what made this great Republic, what it is. And trying to explain that break it down to. People in ways that they can really understand and. Digest. Some people are much. Better at it than others. That's why we win elections and we lose elections is. There's a distinct. Difference between people who are framing the conversation and who are bringing to the. Table or or to the church if you.[ALLEN WEST]You know, I agree with you wholeheartedly in that when we stand on the rule of law, the Constitution should be a very simple argument against those that don't. And that kind of brings me to where I want to start our conversation. I was up there sitting meeting with you last week with the National Defense Authorization Act, and of course that was passed there in the United States. Council representatives, but it was 219 to 210, and normally the NDA is a real strong bipartisan piece of. Why is it now that the progressive Socialist left is more so concerned about their woke agenda in the military than our actual military readiness, which is what the authorization act is authorizing the missions and the focus of our military? What is it that the the other side of the aisle up there right now is not? Understanding and not getting.[REP. McCORMICK]Well, I think they're they're missing the whole point of the military beginning with and. This whole right House system? Freedom hearing, where where the whole focus of 1 member. Of Congress was what about the LGBTQ? Whatever it's called in religion, being the religion discriminate against them. I'm like, wow, we we kind of the the whole rewrite of history and what the military is even for, as if we're a social experiment. One thing that. I noticed is this has been going. On since the Obama era. Where you started to replace warriors. Like yourself with politicians who are more interested in making politicians happy than the cops in the mission, similar to the army that brings whole mission is. To locate close with. And destroy the enemy to fire maneuver to tell the items. Assault through fire and close combat. Everything else is. Superfluous and and I'll tell you this focus even. The last year, when? I was in the military in 2017 when Trump was president. Trump was president. I had four lectures on how to treat somebody who's transgender. I'm not talking about as a patient. I'm talking about. As a person. We didn't even have transgenders in the. Military. So tell. Me that wasn't. Absolutely a political way to get young people to think in a certain way rather than to actually accomplish the mission. 4 lectures. Are you kidding me? I pushed back on the hard because I. Don't care. I'm at the end of my career, but nobody else felt like they were empowered to do that and only the people who. Are going to support. That agenda are going to get promoted the fastest to the next level and control the military. So you it's a natural selection. Process towards a. Politically correct military and I remember. I'll give you a perfect example. Of when I was talking to. Sergeant Major, the army. And not to pick. On it. On me too much. But the song name by. The way the army owes. Me 100 push-ups because he's not. Going to make his recruiting. Goals this year and he said the. Change things. We're gonna get it back on. Back, but once again, this this idea that you're trying. To recruit somebody other than warriors. First of all, you. Want warriors in the military? You want people who really want to. Do to protect their nation will fight. Tooth and nail to the. Death to accomplish the mission. Those who, that's what you want. Diversity aside, we're going to get. Diverse we we focus on that already the. Military decades ago, we. Were focusing on. Military recruiting minorities to be officers, so it could. Represent better what they're what they're leading.[MUSIC]And I think that's.[REP. McCORMICK]A good thing I support that and we we. Even biased it towards that in some ways, which? Is OK, I'm.[MUSIC]I'm not.[REP. McCORMICK]I'm not against the military in the military. But what I'm. Against is teaching people that we are divided by those differences, but that's where I draw a line where it becomes a divisive tool used by the government to. To conflate the issue issue in a very unhealthy way, and this is where we we've gone totally wrong and this is where they will fight tooth and nail to the end because it's it's their civil rights move and they think that they're going to get. In on on the the mark. Themselves that that somehow this is the same representing as if people are spraying down LGB YQ with fire hoses and sicking dogs on it's not the same thing because you were told you that that somebody wouldn't make a birthday. Cake for you. It's not the same thing. We're not. Equally discriminated against, not. In this country, not in other countries. And this idea that everybody's a victim. Is what they're fighting over, and they literally victimized every child America, to the point where some, some cities, some communities you. Have 40% of. The me saying. I too I'm. A lesbian or transgender or gay or whatever. That's impossible. It's not statistically possible, it's. Just they don't want to be chastised. For being normal. And this is this is the. Movement that they wanted. This is the way. They wanted to put government in the position where. They are the moral equivalent of. God or a church or a family. The total opposite of what we designed our Constitution around, which is empowering people to be the only moral equivalent of themselves, the ultimate minority is the individual. And now we've taken this over to the military. The one last meritocracy we had where people got along because made a common enemy, and we're the only thing that mattered is is Carl. Carry his back and shoot straight. Does he got my. Back is he loyal to me? Is he my God? That's what mattered to us in the past. We didn't see things in in terms of black and white. We started shades of green, we all bleed red. That was the military that's being. Destroyed on purpose, in my opinion.[ALLEN WEST]Now you're absolutely right. And this whole movement, the LGBTQIA alphabet, soup mafia, that's what I call them. It has become the religion of the left. And if you don't prostate yourself before them, you're persecuted and prosecuted. Now I will tell you something else. You can call up the Sergeant major of the army about and and get some more push-ups out of him. It was just last week, I believe that Christine Warmoth, the secretary of the Army. You know, talking about recruiting, she says that she does not want to recruit from generational families of service anymore. She wants to recruit, you know, other people to come into the military. To me, that's a slap in the face of multi generational families that have served this country like mine. I mean, it started with my dad. In World War Two continues up to today with my nephew, who's a Lieutenant Colonel. Why do you think that we have this incredible push of the left? I mean, when you have the Chief of Naval operations because you just quoted the the basic mission of the United States Marine Corps. But when the chief of the naval operation says they don't have enough amphibious assault craft to get the Marines to the battlefield, then you can't meet your mission. But yet pronoun usage and drag queen shows and drag queen recruiters and and all of this stuff is the emphasis, and they're upset. Because you and the House of Representatives realize we're not supposed to be funding this with taxpayer money, can we continue to hold the line no matter what the Senate does? And this comes back to a conference committee there in the House. That's the big.[REP. McCORMICK]And let's let's be Frank, is he doctor? Is a military member that you and I have been in, in the frank realities of the the mayors of? The military, both mentally and physically. We still don't allow people in the military with flat feet. Because they have. It prevents me to have foot problems when they hike and that's for all Marines. Doesn't matter what MOS. How ironic is it that we're accepting? People in the military that have. A 40% chance of trying to commit suicide in the highest intensity situations with the most stress, and then assume that they're going to transition while they're in the military, which would be extremely expensive and. Non deployable for. Their entire career so that some other. Bring deploys in their stead overseas. So now. You have a higher. Pressure on those people and their family to take over for what's we determined was better and safer than. Flat feet. How ironic is that now and get back to the start. Made the army. I I forgot to finish the story. Which is typical in. The yard that come up to the. Next thing but but. Here's what he said, and I said, why are You guys spending so much time on this? This diversity training that we know we're diversity, in fact, one of the things we we love about it, we we make fun. Of each other. We cut it up like good friends do. We we break down those barriers cause we feel comfortable. When you heighten that anticipation of if I say the wrong thing, I'm going to ruin my career or I'm going to be hated by this person because now they absolutely think I hate them and I can't. Joke with them anymore. I'm not coming. Couple of them and we. Create barriers instead of bringing. Them down before we we.[MUSIC]Got rid of.[REP. McCORMICK]The barriers by just cutting them up and wrestling. And being goofballs and knuckleheads. Now we're not afraid to make a mistake because of this diversity training. That's that's literally saying you're different from them and he's trying to hold you back because he just like the way. You look what? In the world are we doing? And when I brought this up? His defense was look, we have Marines from. Nathan not they're driving home in their uniforms because they're afraid they're going to be pulled over. Because they're black, I said. Good point the. Question is, are they military police pulling them over? Nope, they're not. It's a. Societal problem not. A military problem? Why are you making societies problems? The military problem? Gotta kind of figure it out. Follow our league. Don't do it the way that society. Is effed it all? Up, sorry for my. Language, but quite, quite frankly, the military has it.[ALLEN WEST]That's OK.[REP. McCORMICK]Right, we've led the way. We're breaking down barriers. We've led the way in diversity. We've led the way in Miss. Why are we trying to go back to society and reinforce the divisions? That have held us back. For, for decades or centuries. Whatever you want to say, who rehashing things that divide us instead of the things that unite us, like using the flag to represent all the bad things in the United States rather than all the good things in the. United States give us a standard give. Us something to believe in? That can unite us instead of using everything we have in the United again. Us and and using it. Really, a device of ways it gives us. Nothing left to united.[ALLEN WEST]You know, it's interesting. You bring that up because the 8th and our barracks that you're talking about, the United States Marine Corps headquarters there in DC, is located in Pretty Bad neighborhood. And my little hooch was there up in that neighborhood. And you're right, it is a societal, cultural problem in Washington, DC, with the crime that's being committed and turning. A black eye on the perpetrators of crime and not confronting that and sadly, we have soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines all caught up into that. But let's transition over to another part. You're also on the foreign affairs comma. You just recently had one of your colleagues and I used that word in air quotes and loosely representative Jayapal, who is the chairperson of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. Basically, the Communist caucus come out and say, you know, this past week Israel is a racist country and we know that the President of Israel. Is now visiting Washington, DC. Are we going to see some type of, you know, response to her or something that happens on the the House floor? Some, since your measure against her because that undermines the foreign policy of the United States of America, I give it to you.[REP. McCORMICK]And This is why we kicked the Hallman off of the committee. You know, when we have problems, people talking like that is never conducive to to what we're trying to accomplish in the world. Ironically, they're the same exact people that. Would call America. Does that mean that Joe Biden can't go visit a foreign country? But think about that for. A second they have openly been calling America a despicable country, even to our own their own constituents. And yet, does that mean that we're no longer once again focusing on? The worst of. Us rather than on the best of US and. If you're going to judge every nation by. The worst of us. We're all in trouble.[ALLEN WEST]And the question.[REP. McCORMICK]Is what will. We do. That would be interesting. To see what we would turn our. Next conference, let's say a little more strict on that. Sort of rhetoric. I do think that there's a very unhealthy push that that leaders. In general, are judged by a A. Small portion of their their populace, including the United States and including our parties.[ALLEN WEST]You know, it's interesting because herself and several others have already said they're not attending the joint session of Congress when the Israeli President will be speaking. And I think that is a horrible reflection, because you always hear the left talk about threats to democracy. There's only one democracy in the in the Middle East. And that is the state of Israel. And yet they're speaking out against that state, but, and aligning themselves with the types of folks that you and I fought against Islamic jihadists and terrorists and things of this nature. So now let's talk about your select subcommittee on the Coronavirus pandemic. The American people were terrorized. Will we ever get to the bottom of this? As far as who's responsible and you know, to make retributions of this, and also I think one of the things we need to look at can we get to a point where those members of the military who were kicked out because they refused to take a shot. Which we now know would not have had any positive effect. As a matter of fact, they have more adverse effects. Can we get them to come back into the military? Can we make that offer to them and bring them back at the same rank and also with back pay?[REP. McCORMICK]Yes. So we're we're actually. We're actually passed legislation, that is. Going to be passed by. Senate and the White House. That's another issue. We've done our part. With what's interesting about that, and if I may just talk my last year ship was December 28th. I didn't overnight shift. I've been working pretty much 3/4 time during my entire. Race into the general I the only person in Congress who who's not just treated coronavirus patients, but thousands and thousands of coronavirus patients. So I happen to be scientific in the way. I approach this. I think we absolutely have the idea where this. Came from and this without a doubt. We know that's the. Epicenter and that's where it started. We know that it it did not come from animals. There's no animal reservoir, they can't find it. They can find DNA in the in the air. That doesn't mean anything. You can find. You can find the RNA DNA. That you can find. Rotaviruses on the on. A wood table doesn't mean it came from wood. Table. Let's be serious. About this, you don't find antibodies or reservoirs in in raccoon dogs or? Civic cats or bats? Despite Herculean efforts by the Chinese government to. Come up with some sort. Of animal as well, therefore. If it does not exist, it's not even. A good theory. Anybody who claims that is literally trying to cover up the truth. We do know that the Wuhan lab requested funding for gain of research in the area that this virus developed and that it started in the in the area and that it happened right after they requested that. Then they destroyed a bunch of. Evidence would not any access by any outside organization and people. Deductive reasoning isn't even he isn't. Even in question here. It's obvious where. It came from the question. Is do we have the fortitude to call it out? Now the next question we have when it. Comes to the coronavirus and this is. What we need to do next? Is what about all? The censorship, the censorship of physicians of of opposite opposite positions as. You said that turned out to be right. What about when I asked a, quote UN quote, expert in the field who hasn't seen a patient since the 1990s but yet had the power to, along with the government and the illegal? In my opinion, the relationship that they had with the media, social media and other news agencies to censor an ER doctor seeing thousands of patients? Saying I'm wrong. And then it turns out I'm right. But do you know the science? Came back and says shows that. I'm right on mass on vaccinations. On treatments on a multitude of things, but no. Apology and said their excuse was. But we didn't know. At the time that you were that, you were right. So why did? You censor me? When you turned out to be wrong, the the worst thing. The worst thing is we literally used. A very scary time and. This is where fear gets. Very, very dangerous. To justify government determining if our businesses were over closed, whether you could travel, whether you had to have a vaccination, whether you could. He will be heard on media and post what you wanted the popes, or how you treat medicines. They became the the more equivalent of all doctors where they required you to think like they do. And this is by the way, the same reason that medical pediatricians who used to universally be against transgender transitions as pedia. As pediatric patients now won't say anything because they're scared of the government, this, this I did, the government comes all powerful is what led to. The the death of 60 million. Russians during the Gulag. Archipelago from 19/17/1957 I. Know you're a student. I know you're. A huge historian, which I love about. You very well read a big fan. But you know, this is when. Government becomes all. Powerful and they decide you shouldn't have a. Gun but 30 million. Americans aren't willing. To give up their God-given right. And also the the Constitution. The rights, then what does the? Government have to do it has to buy force. Take it from you. Are you willing to kill 30 million people who will give? Up their life. See, this is that creep of government power that we have literally designed our constitution around to to prevent. And yet it's now being attacked from all sides.[ALLEN WEST]Last question, before I let you go because I know you're busy up there on Capitol Hill. And one the the. Only thing that is mandated for the Congress to do. It's to pass a budget and in order to pass a budget that means 12 appropriations bills that have to be passed out of the House, sent over to the Senate. All of this has to be done work wrapped up by the 30th of September, the end of the fiscal year, or else we go in and get another one of these omnibus spending gumbos and continuing resolutions and whatever. As you sit here right now, do you think that this House representatives will be able to get done? The one mandated thing they must do is to pass a budget, pass 12 appropriations bills for 2024.[REP. McCORMICK]Yeah, if any Congress can do it, we can consider. What we got done with the narrowest majority we've? Had in a long time. The fact that we've been able to bring innovative table, get everybody's input, pass some bills that are hard to do, especially like the NDA, even though we had opposition, we. Relied on some. Models from the Democrats, but overall, it's been really a a universal push by the Republicans to get a lot. Of bills passed. One of the most active congresses in recent history, with some of the most conservative legislation in recent history. And we've. All done with. This very minor majority and I. Think it's it's. Just showing how much. We can pull together when we want to. We've been very proactive, very, very forward thinking. We're not taking our time. You know, if we were taking our time on the NDA. Then the Senate would. Have a chance to come up with their first hack, and then we'd be playing defense. We would have got a much. Less conservative built the. Fact that we've had committees working and. People coming to the table allows us. To get ahead of this. And then I like. To say we I think we. Have a fighting chance of actually for the first time in. Very long time doing it the right way.[ALLEN WEST]Well, I pray. So, Congressman, Dr. Rich McCormack of Georgia's 6th Congressional District. How can people follow you? How can people support you? Let us know all of your social media and you know, where can people stay in touch?[REP. McCORMICK]So you can find. All that at mccormick.house.gov. Great resource tells all the links for. Both campaign side and official side. Lots of links about how we talked about. These sort of issues. And more, and maybe in a few videos about the Greens being knuckleheads in the in. Their congressional office.[ALLEN WEST]Well, I wish you, as they say in the Maritime services, fair winds and flowing seas and I also want to tell you BZ, proud of you. Proud that all that you are doing up there and you know with men and women such as yourself. The better days of this great constitutional Republic are ahead of us. Thank you for your service in uniform and out of uniform. Simplify Steadfast.[REP. McCORMICK]Lead the way. Say goodbye.[ALLEN WEST]Cool airborne, ladies and gentlemen.

Ep #221 - Tough days. Good days. Sobriety isn't simple because you are a human with depth, a nuance, and intricacies that can not be summed up in a sound bite or three-sentence caption. What you are experiencing on your journey is amazing, and emotional, and trying - all the while being the best thing you will ever do for yourself. The mind plays tricks on you and boomerangs you backward because of FEAR. What if every day isn't like this amazing day? What if these people don't like me once they get to know me? What if I let my family or friends down? What if I let MYSELF down? It's in these questions we begin to make decisions, and build our belief system about ourselves, around our good and bad days, our successes and perceived failures - but we have so much depth to us our lives can not be quantified by a singular action. Your deductive or inductive thinking can either blast you forward or drag you back toward the version of yourself you have already to me and yourself you are sick and tired of. Today is the day to seek more for yourself than you have ever believed you should expect...because you are worth your own love and your happiness is dependent upon you creating. You are your own creator - let's get you to the creating because everything is better when we wake up sober!

Sherlock Holmes is a literary character we're all familiar with who has the uncanny ability to solve any mystery he comes across. And one of the things that sets the British detective apart from others is his use of inductive reasoning to solve his cases. He begins with observations which then propel him in his search for the truth. Deductive reasoning, on the other hand, begins with a hypothesis and then uses the facts in order to confirm a theory. And so as we're trying to figure out how wealthy we need to be, we think that taking the Holmsian approach is most helpful. Rather than picking a nice round number out of thin air like $1 million, we're doing some observing and we're asking some questions! Because regardless of how much money you already have set aside for retirement, you could be missing the mark if you're only reading the headline numbers reported by the ‘experts'.

Mike Michalowicz is the author of seven business books published by Penguin Random House, and I would consider at least three of them to be “must reads” if you are trying to make sense of the business world right now as an employee, owner or founder. I was introduced to Mike's work by a wildly successful, generous trusted advisor of mine who attributes much of his own savvy and success to having discovered Mike's books. After I read the first that my friend recommended, we had a subsequent conversation that included a lot of comments like, “Oh, I wish I'd known some of this when I was just starting out!” All three of my 20-something kids have all read “PROFIT FIRST”... which I would recommend to everyone listening, no matter their age or stage, And at the Goodness Exchange, we are actively using Mike's book: FIX THIS NEXT… a road map approach to prioritizing… invaluable to anyone running a business, non-profit, or a small start-up project of some kind… even if you are in the business office of some endeavor. But we are here to talk about CLOCKWORK today. The subtitle is “Design your business to run itself” and after reading this book, I know most of us - regardless if we are an owner or a team member - can use the insights in this book to experience lives well-lived. [00:00- 01:23] Opening [01:24- 03:23] Mike's bio Some of Mike's Books: Clock Work, Fix This Next, Profit First [03:24- 05:05] Clock Work focuses on business efficiency Embracing the humanity within ourselves You don't treat people as a resource but treat them as a human being Leverage of systems and processes [05:06- 11:08] Declaring Your Big Promise What is the most important? From more complex perception to simplified perception Delivering excellent service over and over again builds a reputation for excellence Eradicate entrepreneurial poverty The big promise is the deliverable Purpose is the internal drive We all have something that's driving us [11:09- 13:14] You don't have to leave your vocation to have a form of expression Purpose is not found overnight Find out how you want to express yourself [13:15- 20:21] What is QBR? Heart of an organization The bees Fedex Troubled but not compromised Southwest Figure out what you're most known for Wrapping around the package [20:22- 23:17] Deductive reasoning Start off with your promise You don't have to be the same as your competition [23:18- 25:50] Parkinson's Theory The constraint makes us use it more efficiently and innovatively Cram and scramble technique Intentional disruption [25:51- 27:55] Psychological ownership Owners should be the creators of the job [27:56- 31:06] Closing Fix This Next is like a roadmap How to handle ideas
One of the valuable lessons we can learn is how to apply the art of reason. There are two kinds of reasoning: deductive and inductive. Deductive is drawing conclusions from axioms--it works great with math--but not so good with the natural sciences. It took humankind centuries to go from a geocentric solar system to a correct, heliocentric understanding. Inductive reasoning gathers data and facts first (i.e., the empirical method) before trying to draw conclusions. This method has its own set of problems but is generally a better approach.You can read about God and religion and then try and draw your own conclusions, using deductive reasoning, but if your assumptions are wrong, so will be your conclusions. The Gospel is meant to be lived and experienced, In this way, we can better understand eternal truths.God will sometimes reason with us as one person reasons with another. But the gold standard for learning truth is feeling His spirit and letting it edify us. We might make mistakes, but the Spirit of God will lead us to light and rejoicing. If something is not from God, it leads to darkness and confusion. God is merciful and forgiving as He leads us along, teaching us the difference--if we remain humble and teachable.

Moving to Hollywood from rural New South Wales Australia, Kelly made the transition to fulfill her lifelong passion for acting and filmmaking. She started gaining experience in the industry through high profile music video and commercial projects working with artists such as Avril Lavigne, Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa. Along with becoming a spokesmodel for GUESS and a Bebe ‘It Girl' finalist, She competed in the 2011 Miss California USA Pageant, and won of the ‘Best swimsuit body' in the Miss Hollywood pageant the following year. Her feature film debut was in the first “Avengers” film franchise, and she has appeared in tv shows on FX, Lifetime and Disney. Since then, she has produced four short films including a documentary, VR film, a drama and a corona comedy “50 shades of Quarantine” that premiered as a finalist in the Portland Comedy Film Festival. A Canadian movie on mental health that Kelly co-wrote, produced and starred in called “40 seconds” is now doing the international festival circuit and a finalist in two festivals. She is now set to write the first novel in a travel trilogy and produce a documentary she recently filmed while volunteering with her NGO Give Backpackers in Uganda. Stay tuned for this rising Australian star to take over the big screen and world soon.

More info: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/lethal-ladies-a-neo-noir-scifi-horror-slasher-film#/ DECEIT - is our first film, a Social Suspense Thriller Neo Noir with a twisty Noir storyline that introduces one of our main Ensemble Members in the Universe, Baddie. When we first meet her she is set up to be ornpook like she is going to be the Femme Fatale that causes the demise of the leading man, however the first twist is that she is actually the hero of the film but kinda like a duck on pond water most of her hard work and talents are done below the surface. Baddie is a Deductive genius as her Atypical Personality and more importantly unusual way of thinking removes normal social biases leaving only fact and logic. She's kinda like a crypto influencer version of Spock from Star Trek meets a Sherlock with a Adult Modeling cover from Sherlock Holmes, except she has extreme introversion and social anxiety so most of her work is handled in the meta verse and the world of crypto. Her storyline and character arc take our audiences from the grounded realism of Modern day femme fatale character driven suspenseful noir to the more eclectic CyberPunk Noir part of the Lethal Ladies Universe.

Although the skeletal outline is now in place, the major part of the writing of the sermon still remains. The “meat” must now be put on the “bones.” This will be done as subpoints are formulated and appropriate illustrations added. When the introduction and conclusion are written, the sermon will then be completed.Just as the main points establish the sermon's proposition, so the subpoints establish the main points. There are three main categories of subpoints: explanation, exemplification, and accentuation.Explanation involves clarifying ideas, words, or concepts.Exemplification means giving understandable examples of the truth being explained. Accentuation entails emphasizing that truth.Explanation is an attempt to clarify; exemplification is an attempt to prove, and accentuation is an attempt to clinch the idea. It is a form of oral underlining.Subpointing can be done in several ways. Sometimes a sermon will employ only one method, but on other occasions, a sermon may use more:1. Subpointing can be done by “exposing” the text through: Exegetical studyModifiers in the mechanical layout Definitions and word studies Contextual considerations2. Subpointing can be done by “questioning” the text: Why? When? Who? Where? What? How? So what?3. Subpointing can be done by considering the natural relationships between larger concepts and their parts. Perry speaks of these as “thought categories.If the main point is biographical, the preacher might consider the following: Roots Career Personality Achievements Failures Name Relation to GodIf the main point is related to an event, the natural lesser categories might be: Time Place Causes EffectsIf the main point is related to time, the subpoints might be: Past Present Future Other concepts such as relationships, miracles, parables, doctrines, and speeches all have lesser ideas that are natural parts of the whole. In fact, virtually all concepts can be broken down into sub-ideas.4. Subpointing can be done with formal reasoning: a. Deductive reasoning (syllogism) this kind of reasoning moves from a general truth to specific truth. b. Inductive reasoning - this kind of reasoning moves from specific examples to a general conclusion.The following recommendations may prove helpful in this part of the sermon's preparation:If possible, the primary subpoints under each main point should be stated in a parallel fashion. The immediate preaching text and context should be gleaned for helpful material before additional Scriptures are searched for further supporting materials. At least one subpoint of application under each main point should be included. These applications should be as specific as possible. (While this recommendation does not apply to some sermon methods, it does fit most Keyword sermons.)During delivery, the subpoints should not be numbered aloud. This can create difficulty for the listener in differentiating between subpoints and main points. If there is sufficient reason to present subpoints in the form of a numbered list, care should be taken to ensure that the audience understands what is happening.Our website is: https://preachingmatters.buzzsprout.com/The podcast is a ministry of Dr. Alan Carr and The Sermon Notebook (http://www.sermonnotebook.org)Support the show
How do we know that we can trust software? One answer is software reliability testing. Dr Mário Pereira and Dr António Ravara from the Nova School of Science and Technology in Lisbon, Portugal, and their collaborators have developed the Cameleer tool, a formal verification software tool for OCaml-written code.

The Bible is the best-selling, least read and least understood book in the world today! We are going to expand on what we learned last week learning how to determine what the Bible is teaching and what it actually says. How do we interpret the Bible? Deductive vs. Inductive? Deductive can used to justify what is already presupposed by the use of passages. Deductive Bible study might say that you're going to take the five stones of David to slay the five giants in your life. While inductive looks to interpret in context to a specific story such as that of David and the Goliath, which was not that he was a gunslinger or using the right rocks, but that he was not going to miss because the victory was not David's, but God's! God is able and just and powerful enough to deal with your issues today. David wasn't doubling God's ability. When we look at scriptures in the right way, we can get the right interpretation. I want you to have a Bible reading habit that you can understand and apply to your life. Normally we do Bible study as an act of completion to check the box or to maintain a reading plan that is not necessarily about comprehension and we can miss the right application. In the area of Bible study, everybody struggles. Or almost everyone and I want to present a better way.
During our initial LIVE talk with Dr. Merrill Winston there were several comments and questions in the chat we felt needed to be further addressed. In this “ATBA after dark” follow-up, Merrill addresses the concerns that come with medications being administered for behavior reduction (including challenging and sexual behaviors), tips for collaborating with prescribing professionals, and the importance of objective measurements. Learning Objectives: 1. The importance of understanding deductive and inductive reasoning when it comes to treatment. 2. Provide ideas on how to collaborate with prescribing physicians, psychiatrists. 3. Create behavioural definitions to help collect data on potential medication side effects. 4. Understand the expectations of medication- what is it supposed to look like if things go right? 5. Understand the ethical considerations when it comes to “dampening” medications, whether it be aggression, self-injury, sexual behaviors. Take Aways- your bite-sized educational noms - Deductive reasoning is a logical approach that moves from general ideas to more specific conclusions. Inductive reasoning on the other hand draws conclusions by moving from the specific to generic. - Building relationships and rapport not only includes with our client and their caregivers but should involve the whole team for the client, and this may include prescribing physicians and psychiatrists. Collaborating with these other professionals allows us the chance to remain in our scope of competence but remain curious and advocate for the client. - The science of behavior provides the opportunity to set clear measures for medication, not just “feels better”. What are the medications prescribed for? Depression or because the individual cries throughout the day? What are some of other variables that could be affecting this behavior? Remember from Ep23, medications affect the effect, and effect the affect. If the medications “work”, what will others observe? - Ethically we need to consider who the medication is benefiting and why. Are medications given that limit sexual desire because the individual engages in masturbation when instead a lesser intrusive method could include ruling out medical issues, skills deficits, training.

Episode 117: Deductive Reasoning and The Four F's with Vince Pitstick Inductive reasoning doesn't work when you are dealing with complex metabolic conditions - the act of applying a solution. Deductive reasoning entails peeling layers back, finding your heaviest domino, and working a case from its roots out to its branches. Today we invited the Metabolic Mentor himself, Vince Pitstick on to talk about his patented approach: Flush, Feed, Function, Fast and how he's changing lives and our industry through systems based coaching. www.theexcellencecartel.com
“Hoare writes with the license of the nonexpert; you can feel the delight he takes in being unbound by anything but his enthusiasms.”John Williams was describing Philip Hoare when he wrote that line, but he could easily have been describing me. As a nonexpert, I am free to speculate and arrive at my own conclusions. So are you. And so is your customer. You, me, and your customer claim we use deductive reasoning, but it simply isn't true. Deductive reasoning – the basis of scientific method – would require us to work diligently to disprove what we believe. Do you know anyone who actually does that? Rather than use deductive reasoning, we use inductive reasoning to search out information confirming that our values, beliefs, instincts, and preferences have been right all along. When confronted with contradictory information, our confirmation bias kicks in to assure us the contradictory information is not correct, so we dismiss it with the flick of a mental finger. Let me help you with that flicking away of contradictory information. I am an ad writer. Magical thinking, inductive reasoning, and confirmation bias sparkle at my fingertips. My job is to speak to that which is already within you. You have more than enough information. Let me agree with what you already believe. Google and Facebook will use their algorithms to help us build a community where we can surround ourselves with like-minded people who share our opinions and beliefs. Everyone who doesn't agree with us is uninformed, misinformed, fooled by faulty data, foolish rumor, or evil geniuses. Magical thinking, inductive reasoning, and confirmation bias sparkle at the fingertips of every evil genius. But I am not an evil genius. I am the genius that agrees with you. Magical thinking is difficult to explain, but Kurt Andersen does a pretty good job: “Americans have always been magical thinkers and passionate believers in the untrue. Our nation was started by Puritans in New England who wanted to create a Christian utopia as they waited for the imminent second coming of Christ and the End of Days. To the south, a bunch of people were convinced, absolutely convinced, that this place they had never been was full of gold waiting to be plucked from the dirt in Virginia. They stayed there looking and hoping for gold for 20 years before they finally faced the facts and decided they weren't going to get rich overnight.” “This was the beginning of America. Next we had centuries of ‘buyer beware' charlatanism and medical quackery to an extreme degree, along with increasingly exotic, extravagant, implausible cults and religions.” “All those things came together and were supercharged in the 1960s, when you were entitled to your own truth and your own reality. A generation later the internet came along, giving each of those realities, no matter how false or magical or nutty they are, their own kind of media infrastructure.” A wonderful story is dazzling and attractive, regardless of whether or not it is true. This is the basis of all successful advertising.“Hoare writes with the license of the nonexpert; you can feel the delight he takes in being unbound by anything but his enthusiasms.” John Williams wrote those words in https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/05/books/review-albert-whale-albrecht-durer-philip-hoare.html (his recommendation) of Philip Hoare's new book, “Albert and the Whale: Albrecht Dürer and How Art Imagines Our World.” John Williams book review column is titled, appropriately, “Books of the Times.” Roy H. Williams
First of all, let me apologise for this episode in advance as we were both incredibly sleep deprived. As a result there is a lot more of our usual "humour" than normal. In this episode we take a detailed look at how and when to apply the -uctions as i affectionately entitle them. Deductive, inductive and abductive reasoning! Through this we take a look at exactly what they are and if the titles of such are important or just other information to stop you from applying what you need. More specifically, how exactly would you know what type of rational process to apply to what problem.ACT 3 IS OUT NOW!

But that's cool, that's fun.John Esposito (01:32): Yeah, it was a fun time.Mike Ercolano (01:33): Was it actually scary?John Esposito (01:36):It could've been better. Could've been better.Mike Ercolano (01:38):Okay, so what could've been better about it? Was it the-John Esposito (01:39): I think-Mike Ercolano (01:41): ... effects or the actors?John Esposito (01:43):I think it was more the actors.Mike Ercolano (01:44):They just sucked? They weren't good.John Esposito (01:45):Their timing was off because it was a lot of jump scary things and [crosstalk 00:01:50] they did their jump scares a little too early or they did it to the front end of the group and the back end of the group just got diddly squat.Mike Ercolano (01:57): So nothing really-Kelly Krauss (01:59):You got to get the middle section.John Esposito (02:01):Yeah. You have to have middle ground.Kelly Krauss (02:01):I'll have to tell you the scariest haunted house I ever went to was just pitch black. It was all black. You had no idea where you were going and then there was just voices here and there. It was the scariest thing ever.John Esposito (02:14):Oh, they had one [crosstalk 00:02:15]-Kelly Krauss (02:15):Because you couldn't see anything.John Esposito (02:15):They had one section like that at this one. It was pitch black. They made you put on these neon necklaces or the glow-in-the dark necklaces and they tell you, "Put your hands out in front of you so you don't run into the walls."Kelly Krauss (02:25): See, that's good stuff.John Esposito (02:27): And there was stuff just-Kelly Krauss (02:27): It was just pitch black.John Esposito (02:28):There was stuff hanging there that felt like fabric-y, went into a spider, and you're siting like, "Oh myGod."Kelly Krauss (02:33): The shoot-John Esposito (02:34): Then a random-Kelly Krauss (02:34):... mist at you and stuff.Episode 37 Vocals (Completed 10/21/21) Transcript by Rev.comJohn Esposito (02:35):Randomly, somebody would just tap you on the shoulder.Mike Ercolano (02:37):Yeah, I don't know about that.Kelly Krauss (02:38):That's the stuff that freaks me out. Don't touch me. That'll freak-John Esposito (02:41): Yeah. No.Mike Ercolano (02:44):I don't know. No, I just don't know how I would react to that. I think I would be too defensive. I'd feeltoo-John Esposito (02:49):Get ready to throw a punch?Mike Ercolano (02:51):Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if I'd actually turn and throw an actual punch, but I feel like I'd be toodefensive.John Esposito (02:55): No, I understand that.Mike Ercolano (02:57):I don't know. I guess that's the point of it.John Esposito (02:59): It's fight or flight.Mike Ercolano (03:00): Right, I guess. But I'd be-Kelly Krauss (03:01):But anyway, out where you live you've got to have some good haunted hayrides and stuff.John Esposito (03:05): Oh yeah.Mike Ercolano (03:06): I don't know. I would assume so. I haven't really looked into it. I know the one farm that I pass, the big farm Tranquility Farm that's up by me, I think it's called, the place was packed right now. Parking is all over ... It's right on the main road there, 517.John Esposito (03:23): Every single day.Mike Ercolano (03:24):It's packed. It's crazy. They're killing it. Good for them. Yeah, they're killing.Kelly Krauss (03:29):They only have like a month to do it or you know?Mike Ercolano (03:31):Yeah. They built that place up too. A couple years ago, it was nothing. It was just a little tiny farm.Kelly Krauss (03:35): Oh really?Mike Ercolano (03:36):Yeah. The farm land actually backed up to my ex's house who lives over there. We'd watch pretty muchthem develop the whole ... I mean, they didn't develop the farm. The farm is still there.Kelly Krauss (03:49): Right.Mike Ercolano (03:50):It's still an active running farm, but they knocked the old barn down and built this really nice store. It'slike a market or whatever that farmer thing-Kelly Krauss (03:59): Cool. I love that stuff.John Esposito (04:00): Absolutely.Mike Ercolano (04:00):All local stuff and now they do all things. Halloween stuff, apple picking, all that. They must be killing it.Kelly Krauss (04:07): Mm-hmm (affirmative).Mike Ercolano (04:08): But good for them.Kelly Krauss (04:08):Exactly. Like I said, they only have a little bit of time to do it and [crosstalk 00:04:13]-Mike Ercolano (04:12): They're busy all year round.Kelly Krauss (04:13): In the winter?Mike Ercolano (04:15):Yeah. They got stuff going on there. They're pretty smart with their business.Kelly Krauss (04:20): Cool.John Esposito (04:21): That's good to hear.Mike Ercolano (04:21):Yeah. But I couldn't tell you the last time I was at one of those.John Esposito (04:25): This is your year.Mike Ercolano (04:27): Yeah.John Esposito (04:28): It may be.Kelly Krauss (04:28): It may be, yeah.Mike Ercolano (04:29):I remember I went to this one that was like ... I think it was in the city or Jersey city. I mean, I was a little bit younger. I mean, a little bit younger, like 10 years ago, so still an adult. I just don't remember exactly when it was or where it was. It was like a pretty lifelike, realistic thing. I went with all my friends from the bar.Kelly Krauss (04:54): That's when you go, yes.Mike Ercolano (04:55): Oh, you know Big Country.John Esposito (04:56): Absolutely.Kelly Krauss (04:56): Oh yeah.Mike Ercolano (04:57):He's really into ...

I went with him and a big group.Kelly Krauss (05:02):That's how you have to do it.Mike Ercolano (05:02):I guess that was the last time.John Esposito (05:02): You have to.Kelly Krauss (05:02): With a little flask on you.Mike Ercolano (05:02): Mm-hmm (affirmative).John Esposito (05:02): Mm-hmm (affirmative).Kelly Krauss (05:02):That makes it a little bit fun.John Esposito (05:02):A little liquid courage going in.Kelly Krauss (05:02): Yes.Mike Ercolano (05:02):Yeah.

Kelly Krauss (05:24):He did.John Esposito (05:24): Yeah?Kelly Krauss (05:25):He's very proud of himself.Mike Ercolano (05:26): Is Jimmy a big bowler?Kelly Krauss (05:28): Yes.John Esposito (05:28): Yeah.Kelly Krauss (05:29):But it was tough for Jimmy because it was so packed and Jimmy's very bowling etiquette. Did he tell you about all this stuff?John Esposito (05:36): No, no.Kelly Krauss (05:37):When you go bowling you make sure no one on your right and your left is going. There's bowling etiquette. Well, we show up and there's a family of seven who has no [crosstalk 00:05:48] bowling ... They're all up at the bowling section. They're swinging their kids around. It was like the kids were touching every ball. I could tell he was getting to the point. Then finally ordered a Stella and then he finally got out of his head with that and then he had a great game.John Esposito (06:04): Good.Kelly Krauss (06:04): Yeah, so it was good.Mike Ercolano (06:05): He could zone it out.Kelly Krauss (06:07): Yeah. He had to.Mike Ercolano (06:08):He had to zone it out. It was bad?Kelly Krauss (06:10):It was one of those nights where it was like, "All right, let's just"-Mike Ercolano (06:13): Yeah. Yeah.Kelly Krauss (06:14): Yeah, so that was fun.Mike Ercolano (06:15): Good.John Esposito (06:15): Oh, awesome.Kelly Krauss (06:16):Yeah. But I have to tell you guys because I know football's a big thing on Saturday and Sunday. You knowthe show Boomer and Gio? Used to be Boomer and Carton.John Esposito (06:26): Yeah.Mike Ercolano (06:26): Mm-hmm (affirmative).Kelly Krauss (06:27):Jimmy leaves that on in the morning when he goes to work until I get home. I don't care about sports, but they're always doing facts and figures and stuff. I actually had to rewind it this week because of what they said. They put up a poll and the poll was-Mike Ercolano (06:41):Wait, hold on a second. How did you rewind this?Kelly Krauss (06:43): TV. Live TV.Mike Ercolano (06:44): Oh, you have it on TV?Kelly Krauss (06:45):Yeah.Mike Ercolano (06:45):I thought you were listening on the radio.Kelly Krauss (06:46):No, no, no, no, no. It's on live TV.Mike Ercolano (06:48):Okay. All right. Nevermind, keep going.Kelly Krauss (06:50):Okay, so they do a poll of their, I don't want to say their members, but their listeners who are mostlymen, right?Mike Ercolano (06:57): Probably.Kelly Krauss (06:57):And the poll was would you give up watching football to lose belly fat?Mike Ercolano (07:03): Okay.Kelly Krauss (07:05):Okay. Do you want to guess on the percentage of the people who came back and said-Mike Ercolano (07:10):With their listeners, I'm going to say it was 92% said, "No, they wouldn't give up football for body fat."John Esposito (07:19):I was going to say like 75.Kelly Krauss (07:21): Really?John Esposito (07:21): Yeah.Kelly Krauss (07:22):You both are leaning towards the majority would not-Mike Ercolano (07:25):I think a majority of that-Kelly Krauss (07:26):A big majority. Big majority.Mike Ercolano (07:28): Yeah. I think. Yeah, I do.Kelly Krauss (07:30):Okay. Because they were very surprised by their results. 47% said they would give up watching footballto lose belly fat-John Esposito (07:37): Really?Kelly Krauss (07:37):... which I thought was really interesting because ...Mike Ercolano (07:39): So then do it.Kelly Krauss (07:41):Well, right. They were saying the same thing. They were like, "Everybody who listens to us is a hugefootball fan, but yet 47% is willing to stop watching football to lose their belly fat."Mike Ercolano (07:53): So do it.Kelly Krauss (07:54): Right?Mike Ercolano (07:54): And here's the thing-Kelly Krauss (07:56): Let's call them.Mike Ercolano (07:57):What is it? 18 weeks out of the year?Kelly Krauss (07:59): Football?John Esposito (08:00):Yeah.Mike Ercolano (08:01):I mean, it's more than that with playoffs and whatnot, but the fact is it's only such a small number, such a small percentage of the year. I don't know, that's crazy. I don't believe it. I think those people maybe they liked the thought of it because if they would, they would, right?Kelly Krauss (08:22): What if-Mike Ercolano (08:22): If they actually-Kelly Krauss (08:23):What if they even took it one step better and said, "Okay, instead of giving up football, I'm going to change my football snacks, I'm going to change my football beer, and I'm going to change my football lifestyle, so to say, and just take ... rather than give it all up, take one step closer to being healthy."Mike Ercolano (08:39):Okay, Kel, so what you're saying is to pretty much change their entire Sunday routine, per se, let's saythey're a football fan, and change out all their snacks for healthy snacks?Kelly Krauss (08:50): Yup.Mike Ercolano (08:50):And get rid of the beer and change it to what? Like lemon water?Kelly Krauss (08:55):No. I'm saying either change to a lighter beer if you're not on one and alternate glasses of water. I'm not taking away your football, I'm not taking away your beer, I'm not taking away your football snacks, I'm just altering them. I just think that's a step in the right direction.Mike Ercolano (09:10):I agree. Now I think that that would be a harder sell than that question because I think part of it is the whole routine and everything of football. I think if you change the experience for these people I think they wouldn't be happy with it, so they'll go back-Kelly Krauss (09:30):You mean to tell me if you're sitting there watching football and I take away your microwave popcorn, let's just say, and I give you air-popped popcorn sprayed with coconut oil and salted, you're really going to be paying attention that much?Mike Ercolano (09:49):Not that in that specific example, no.John Esposito (09:52):But if you're taking away their wings for something else.Kelly Krauss (09:55):You can have healthy wings.Mike Ercolano (09:57):Like [crosstalk 00:09:57] air-fried wings, I guess.Kelly Krauss (09:59):See. See. See. I think you're softening to this, [crosstalk 00:10:02].John Esposito (10:01):But I do think some of the guys I've seen at a bar or I'm just thinking about the guys who are sitting in the bar watching football. I don't think half of them would give up all of those little individual variables. But if they had to give up the entire thing as a whole, that would probably seem easier for them.Mike Ercolano (10:16): Right. Right. That's my point.Kelly Krauss (10:17):Just to completely have [crosstalk 00:10:17] nothing to do with it.John Esposito (10:18):Just completely get rid of that, yeah.Mike Ercolano (10:18): Because I think it's a trigger.Kelly Krauss (10:19): I got you.Mike Ercolano (10:19):I think football is a trigger or just like anything else that leads to bad habits. Like driving is a trigger forpeople who smoke. Sitting down and watching football is a trigger for those bad habits.Kelly Krauss (10:31):I'm just taking the approach that we take here, right, baby steps.Mike Ercolano (10:35):Of course. No, and I agree. I agree. I'm just saying. [crosstalk 00:10:40] I think if you pose it that way, if you ask that question, would you rather stop watching football or would you continue watching football, but we change out everything, make it healthy and whatever, I think the results would change.Kelly Krauss (10:53):You think that people would-Mike Ercolano (10:53):I think it would be different.Kelly Krauss (10:55): Got it. Cold turkey.Mike Ercolano (10:57):I think people are more willing to say that they'll give it up over changing what they're already doing. Butagain, if that was the case, they probably would've done that by now.Kelly Krauss (11:07): Right.Mike Ercolano (11:07):Right? My point before is it's 18 weeks and plus playoffs are a bit. It's such a small-John Esposito (11:13): A fifth of your hear.Mike Ercolano (11:13): ... amount of number.John Esposito (11:13):Five percent of the year, something like that.Mike Ercolano (11:19):Let's say you take the opposite approach and let's say you spend the other rest of the year healthy and then every Sunday you do whatever you want during football season, right? Then you can enjoy football. You can do whatever you want but you're healthy. I don't know. It's just interesting. It's a really, really interesting poll.Kelly Krauss (11:38):I know. I was so excited. That's why-John Esposito (11:40):I'm surprised the number was that high.Kelly Krauss (11:40):And they were too.Mike Ercolano (11:41):I didn't think it was going to be.Kelly Krauss (11:42):They were too. They were like, "Wow, that's really high." Again, I don't listen to this show ever, butwhen I heard that I was like, "That is an awesome question and statistic."Mike Ercolano (11:53):You did leave your card for Carton one time, right?Kelly Krauss (11:57): Yeah. Well-Mike Ercolano (11:58):That was before he got pinched and went to jail.Kelly Krauss (11:59):I did. We were in the locker room of the Devils. Yeah, I did leave him my card. Never heard from him.Now we know why.Mike Ercolano (12:07): Right.John Esposito (12:07): We could probably-Kelly Krauss (12:07): Now we know why.John Esposito (12:08):... reach out to him now. You know where to find him. Probably pretty easy to find.Kelly Krauss (12:11):Yeah. Well, he's back on. He's just got a different show now.Mike Ercolano (12:14):Does he? Is he broadcasting from jail?Kelly Krauss (12:17): No, he's out.Mike Ercolano (12:17):Oh, he's ... That's it?Kelly Krauss (12:19):You haven't seen the Netflix show on him?Mike Ercolano (12:21): Nah. I don't have it.Kelly Krauss (12:22):Yeah. No, he's out. He's out and back on the air. Same station, different show. He's not with Boomer.Mike Ercolano (12:28): Oh, shit. I had no idea.John Esposito (12:29):I had no clue about that either.Kelly Krauss (12:30):Mm-hmm (affirmative). Mm-hmm (affirmative). Well, I don't know. How long ago was it? When wewere in the locker room?Mike Ercolano (12:37):Four years ago maybe. Three, four. Even within five years. I thought he was going away for a while. Ithought he was going away for like 20 years or something for-Kelly Krauss (12:46): You would think.Mike Ercolano (12:47):... tax evasion or whatever it was.Kelly Krauss (12:49):No. I think he did a year.Mike Ercolano (12:51):But he used to have money and good lawyers.Kelly Krauss (12:55): Crazy. It's crazy.Mike Ercolano (12:58):Yeah. I don't know. It's hard to say because we're all healthy. I was going to say what's a bad habit that you wouldn't give up for anything, but we're all pretty healthy. I don't need to make a decision of not watching football or being healthy.Kelly Krauss (13:15): Right.Mike Ercolano (13:16): Because I can do that.Kelly Krauss (13:18):Well, I could always fine tune my nutrition, like half and half. I love my half and half. I'm not giving it up. Ihave tried to mixing cashew milk and I do that every once in a while and that does help, but-Mike Ercolano (13:28):Just got to go black, cold turkey, cut it out, be done with that. Your taste buds will adjust.Kelly Krauss (13:33): Then I will give up coffee.Mike Ercolano (13:34):Your taste buds will ... See, that's what I'm saying.Kelly Krauss (13:37): Yes. Yes.Mike Ercolano (13:38):That compromise. You don't want to make that compromise in the middle.Kelly Krauss (13:40):You're right and there you have it.John Esposito (13:42):It becomes part of the ritual.Kelly Krauss (13:43):It is [crosstalk 00:13:44]-Mike Ercolano (13:43):So that's why I think maybe we need to change our approach a little bit too because we are very, as a gym I mean and as trainers, we are very moderation is key. We do believe in that life, but maybe that's not the right approach for somebody who's starting out. Maybe we need to be more strict with people because moderation, unless you have the discipline, moderation without discipline is going to lead you to failure again.Kelly Krauss (14:11):Right. Right. That's a good point.Mike Ercolano (14:11):Maybe that's something we got to go back and revisit our approach and be a little bit tougher. We've always taken the approach of we don't want to be too strict upfront because we don't want to burn people out.Kelly Krauss (14:23): Or restrictive. Right.Mike Ercolano (14:24):Or restrictive. Definitely not restrictive. Maybe we need to kind of change that a little bit.Kelly Krauss (14:29):Mm-hmm (affirmative). Stages. You start out here, you move to this, you move to that.Mike Ercolano (14:35):I mean, I think you could see that in pretty much everything. Now that you're thinking about everything in life is that you kind of need to draw the line. You need to have boundaries. You need to draw a line. If that line is kind of blurry, it's tough to navigate, whether it's nutrition, whether it's science. Right now, the line is very blurry when it comes to what we're being told about certain things. It's tough to really ... You need that line. You need that boundary. Maybe we start with new clients.Kelly Krauss (15:10): Good point.Mike Ercolano (15:10):We'll put a boundary up. We'll create an easier way to ease into it. Like you said, more defined.Kelly Krauss (15:17):Look that where that little-Mike Ercolano (15:17): More defined boundaries.Kelly Krauss (15:20): ... statistic took us.John Esposito (15:20):I know.Mike Ercolano (15:20): Yeah, that's pretty cool.Kelly Krauss (15:22): That's awesome.Mike Ercolano (15:23):Speaking of the blurred lines of science these days, I can't do a show without talking about this because this is a current event and this is very health related. But did you see that basketball player, Brandon Goodwin?Kelly Krauss (15:36): Yes. Yes.Mike Ercolano (15:38): Crazy. So, I mean-Kelly Krauss (15:39): He's the second one.Mike Ercolano (15:40):Yeah. Well, I mean, but he actually said that he had complications from the vaccine and that's what ended his season. It was like silence by the NBA. It was silence by, I think, the Hawks. I'm not a basketball fan. Go back to what you were saying.John Esposito (15:59): I know the Hawks.Mike Ercolano (15:59):Yeah. The Atlanta Hawks, yes.Kelly Krauss (16:00):So he had the vaccination?Mike Ercolano (16:03):So he got the vaccination and then here actually I have the recording for you. I'll let him say it.Kelly Krauss (16:10): Really?Brandon Goodwin (16:10):You know I was just super tired in the game. When we played Philly back to back, I was so tired. I felt like I couldn't run up and down the court and then my back was hurting. Then we went home, I think. That's when I started ... My back really started hurting bad. And then I'm like, "All right, I got to go to the doctor" and that's when I found out I had blood clots. That all happened in a span of a month. I was fine up until then. Up until I took the vaccine I was fine. People trying to tell you like, "No, it's not the vaccine. Oh ..." How do you know? You don't know. Yes, the vaccine-Kelly Krauss (16:53): That sucks.Mike Ercolano (16:57):Actually, that was like a Twitch video or something. I guess that's where they record each other playingvideo games and whatnot. This generation things.Kelly Krauss (17:07):You guys keep coming up with more and more stuff.Mike Ercolano (17:10):But, I mean, I guess that's like [crosstalk 00:17:10] a social network. You live stream and talk to each other and stuff. But the Hawks actually silenced it or tried to silence him and told them not to say about the vaccine. They just came out his season's over due to whatever. I don't know what their thing was. Here's the thing with that. I'm not saying that the chances of having an issue with the vaccine are high. But the fact that it's being silenced and the fact that it's being censored and the fact that it's been pushed out despite this being information that's being allowed to be given out before you make that decision is a problem. That's the issue with this whole entire thing right now or one of the many issues with it. You said the second NBA player ... you see all the ... I forgot how many exactly, but pretty much public workers who got fired, laid off, recently. It's getting to a point where this is a legit concern for our society. It's not something that should be a political issue right now and that's a problem.Mike Ercolano (18:35):Your identity is so tied to one side or another that it's polluting the whole environment. What's going on right now is it's literally medical tyranny. Whether you agree with, again, the vaccine or not. They're forcing something on us and when there's many real statistics that show your health could be basically bulletproofed if you're in a specific BMI category and specifically health categories. It's a scary time. It's a scary time. Again, this is hopefully few and far between. I mean, they have, what, the VAERS site where it's like independent doctors could write in, but that's always lacking behind. There's obviously a overwhelming amount or an approach to silencing specific information and boosting other information. I don't know. I don't know where this goes from here.Kelly Krauss (19:43):I think it's becoming more and more in the forefront. I mean, after the airliners and the mandate andthe pushback there, I feel like that was a win for Delta?Mike Ercolano (19:55): Southwest.Kelly Krauss (19:55):No, but there were other ... American. I think Delta's the one who took away the mandate.Mike Ercolano (20:01):Okay. Maybe. I thought it was Southwest who did.Kelly Krauss (20:03):Southwest started it, I think, and then other guys jumped on.Mike Ercolano (20:06): Right.Kelly Krauss (20:09):That could be the wrong company. But, either way, it's good to see that people are standing up againstit and fighting for themselves as they should be.Mike Ercolano (20:17):I mean, you have to. You have to.Kelly Krauss (20:18): Right. Right.Mike Ercolano (20:20):Again, I would think and I would hope that the side effects of this are few and far between, but just lookat it. Just the other day Colin Powell died. Colin Powell?Kelly Krauss (20:31): Collin.Mike Ercolano (20:32):Colin Powell. Colin. I like Colin better.Kelly Krauss (20:34):Well, did you hear how they were saying he died?Mike Ercolano (20:40): From COVID complications.Kelly Krauss (20:42): Correct.Mike Ercolano (20:43): But he's double vaxxed.Kelly Krauss (20:43):But he had blood cancer and an auto immune disease and five other things but, yet, what they said was he died of COVID.Mike Ercolano (20:52):Right. And he's double vaxxed.Kelly Krauss (20:54): Right.Mike Ercolano (20:58):That's exactly in a nutshell of what has happened over the last 18 months, 20 months, whatever the fuck it's been. He died from a lot of ... There was probably many other issues that killed him before or were going to kill him before he got COVID and he was probably going to pass away soon regardless-Kelly Krauss (21:17): Soon. Yes.Mike Ercolano (21:17): ... if he got COVID or not.Kelly Krauss (21:19): Yes.Mike Ercolano (21:19):Plus, he's double vaxxed, so obviously the vaccine didn't do anything for him.Kelly Krauss (21:26):Right. He was high risk anyway.Mike Ercolano (21:27):It didn't do anything for him, right? The argument of passing it to somebody who's high risk it's just stupid to me. It's stupid to me. It's just a way and we might lose some listeners this way, but the truth has to be put out there. It's just a way of population controlling. Controlling us as ... Controlling our actions and being able to put the thumb down where they want to. As soon as they take control away, which is what we've been saying or as soon as they take freedoms away, which is what we've been saying for the past 19 months or some of us been saying for the 19 months. Once those are taken away, they don't give it back. They don't give it back. You have to fight for it back. Once they take it away they take away more and more and more. It might be very short-sighted right now to say who cares, it's just-Kelly Krauss (22:23): It's just a vaccine.Mike Ercolano (22:24):... a 100 companies. It's just companies with 100 employees or more. It's going to trickle down. I was in Starbucks the other day in New York and it's so dumb. This is how ridiculously dumb it is. The line was out the door with mobile order pickups. We walked right up, ordered our whatever coffee there from the barista. We stood there and waited because we're obviously pretty last in line because they're doing all the mobile orders. We waited 10 minutes. We weren't in a rush. We were standing there waiting, waiting, waiting. As I'm standing there reading, I'm reading the sign and if I literally walked four feet behind me and sat down they would have to check my proof of vax. But because I was standing there waiting for my coffee, it didn't matter. When they brought the coffee, if I took my coffee, turned around and walked four feet and sat down, they would've asked me for my vax idea. Now there's 20 people in the place standing shoulder to shoulder waiting in line for their mobile order so that they could pick it up quicker, which it didn't work.Kelly Krauss (23:37): Didn't happen.Mike Ercolano (23:41):Literally, where they're standing I'd have to ask one of them to move to sit down in the booth. They would be okay, but I wouldn't be okay sitting there and that just shows how crazy this thing. It's just crazy. I'm sorry if you disagree but, frankly, at this point, I honestly don't care either. I'd rather have a conversation with you about it and at least hear you out than do this stupid little song and dance that we're all doing right now as a country, I guess. Because I think that there's more people who agree with what I'm saying. I think that majority of the people out there agree with what I'm saying and majority of the people out there don't think that we should have these mandates, but here we are.Kelly Krauss (24:32):You know it's nice to go out. It's funny because you notice when you go out to eat or whatever. You notice who's wearing a mask and who's not. It's nice to see some restaurants not masking their workers because I feel so bad for them.Mike Ercolano (24:45): Of course.Kelly Krauss (24:46):But I'm starting to notice more and more-Mike Ercolano (24:48):There's a bunch that are, yeah.Kelly Krauss (24:49):... they're starting to release that and good for them. I'm going to go to those places more than I amwhere these poor workers are hiding behind their mask.Mike Ercolano (24:58):Again, I don't have a problem with the mask either. If you want to wear a mask wear it.Kelly Krauss (25:01):Sure.Mike Ercolano (25:01):I feel I want to wear a mask when I'm coaching, go ahead, I don't care. Wear double masks, wear masks and condoms. I don't care. Do whatever you want when you're coaching. Seriously. As long as you feel safe.Kelly Krauss (25:14):Right. Exact [crosstalk 00:25:15].Mike Ercolano (25:15):I'm not going to force anybody to wear a mask. I'm not going to force ... Never again, even if they tell us whatever. Never again. We're not doing that again. Unless everyone's walking in with N95's that are perfectly fitted for your face be that is, in reality, the only mask that actually works at stopping this type of airborne virus. Even then, it's not stopping it completely. But not that these gaiters and these medical masks that don't fit. The sides are open.Kelly Krauss (25:48):Yeah. Big hole on the sides.Mike Ercolano (25:49): It's just-Kelly Krauss (25:49):It's ridiculous. It's absolutely ridiculous.Mike Ercolano (25:51):So we're not doing that again. Again, this whole thing with this basketball player was silenced by the team, by the NBA, and this was just a leaked Twitch recording that came out. Personally, and I've never really said this before, I guess first one I'll say is on air. I think that the vaccine had a lot to do with my mother's passing. She got COVID right in the beginning right before one of her surgeries or actually right after one of her surgeries. A year or so went by and then the vaccine came out and she got the vaccine. After somewhere around that time ... She got her second shot right when she started chemo. She wanted to make sure everything was all right. They pushed back, I think, chemo a few days to make sure she wasn't having any side effects from it. She didn't have any side effects. Boom, started chemo.Mike Ercolano (26:58):She was on chemo for a few months and then she was getting weaker and weaker. I'm sorry, she came off of chemo for a few months and she did the cycle and then came off of it. When she was supposed to be getting better, she was getting weaker and weaker. She felt trouble breathing. She went and she had blood clots all in her lungs. Now this was all within about a month or so, maybe a little bit longer after she got the second dose of the vaccine. The doctor is saying, "Oh, it's residual. It could be residual from COVID. We're seeing this in a lot of COVID that they're getting blood clots. It's a residual." This was a year later. It was within a couple months or a month of her getting the vaccine. To me, I mean, justdeductive reasoning would tell me that ... I don't know, is that the right term? Deductive reasoning?Kelly Krauss (27:54): It sounded good.Mike Ercolano (27:54):Oh, I like it. Yeah. After I said it I'm like, "Oh, maybe that's not the right ..." All right, yeah. Withdeductive reasoning ... now I can't ... I just fucked myself.John Esposito (28:04):That seemed to be the case, yeah.Mike Ercolano (28:05):Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if it's true. Obviously, there's no way of proving that. They didn't say she died from blood clots or whatever, but she had blood clot problems, issues with blood clots, before all this. During one of her surgeries they almost had to cancel it last minute because she had a blood clot behind her leg and the anesthesiologist didn't want her to go in. But then they tested it and it was a different type of blood clot. I don't know. If Victoria was here she'd go off to all the medical terms. But there's couple different type of blood clots. This one wasn't dangerous to break off and go to [crosstalk 00:28:40] her heart or her brain, so they allowed the surgery to happen. But she's always had circulatory issues. I think the vaccine just hurt her circulatory system even more. She's a person that they say should have the vaccine because she's high risk. Her immunity level's probably low or definitely low with chemo and everything, but I think it really weakened her circulatory. She got blood clots in her lungs. Obviously, there's no proof. There's nothing that shows or says that it's definitely from the vaccine. You can't say that and nobody will ever report that.Kelly Krauss (29:21):Right. Nobody's going to show you that. Right.Mike Ercolano (29:22):It wasn't even a conversation with the doctor. It was like, "Oh well, we've seen this happen with somepeople who have had COVID.? Okay, but what about the vaccine? The vaccine especially-Kelly Krauss (29:32):They're not going to say that.Mike Ercolano (29:32):... at that point just for all them. My parents were one of the first people to get it. Not the first people to get it, but they were in the first wave of people to get it. I don't know. I don't know. Interesting, scary, sad world-Kelly Krauss (29:51):Yeah, it's such a crazy time-Mike Ercolano (29:52):... right now.Kelly Krauss (29:53):... right now. Who do you trust? What do you trust?Mike Ercolano (29:55): Right.John Esposito (29:56):Especially when there's ways to stay healthier too than going for vaccine.Mike Ercolano (29:59):Right. Oh, absolutely. I mean, look, we've said it a gazillion times before in the past. You could go get whatever vaccine you want for whatever virus and whatnot's out there. If you're not healthy, something's going to get you.Kelly Krauss (30:12): Right.John Esposito (30:13): Absolutely.Mike Ercolano (30:13):Something's going to get you. Especially as we go into this winter, who knows what's going to happenwith the virus, with COVID, the flu, if that's even a thing anymore.John Esposito (30:26):You didn't know the flu doesn't exist anymore?Mike Ercolano (30:30):But who knows what's going to happen with that. I think that the thing that we should be most focused on is being our own advocates and taking our own immunity into our own hands and not relying on outside sources. Sorry.Kelly Krauss (30:46):It's always the case. Taking care of yourself, your immunity. I always go to nutrition first.Mike Ercolano (30:52): Right.Kelly Krauss (30:53): Supplements, of course. Exercise.John Esposito (30:55):Gut health is your body's health.Kelly Krauss (30:56): Yup.Mike Ercolano (30:58):We'll go over our top five immunity boosting natural ... I didn't fuck that up that bad. Natural immunityboosting techniques. I don't know.John Esposito (31:08): Techniques or supplements.Mike Ercolano (31:09):What's a good catch term for this? Top five immune boosting ...John Esposito (31:17):Top five things you add to your life-Mike Ercolano (31:19): Thanks.John Esposito (31:19):... to boost your immunity.Mike Ercolano (31:21): Thanks.Kelly Krauss (31:22): Vaccines.Mike Ercolano (31:22): The non-vaccine vaccine.Kelly Krauss (31:22):Yeah, the non-vaccine vaccine.Mike Ercolano (31:26): Here's the top-Kelly Krauss (31:27): Here's our top five.Mike Ercolano (31:28):Here's our top five proprietary formula that goes into our non-vaccine vaccine-Kelly Krauss (31:34): You can't get it-Mike Ercolano (31:35): ... which is not a vaccine.Kelly Krauss (31:36):Right. It's not a vaccine. The non-vaccine vaccine.Mike Ercolano (31:40): The non-vaccine vaccine.Kelly Krauss (31:40): I kind of like that.Mike Ercolano (31:41):All right. Here's the immunity non-vaccine vaccine. Number one would be for ... sorry. Number one for our non-vaccine vaccine for natural immunity would be to get adequate vitamin D intake and have high enough vitamin D levels. Again, this is something just talking about COVID specifically because there's a lot of studies that came out on that and showing how vitamin D significantly helped fight COVID. Outside of that, it's been a pandemic in itself. We talk about overweight and obesity being a pandemic. Well, low vitamin D levels, I think, could go right along in that and something that's not really talked about. It is a pillar of immunity. It is a pillar of a good healthy immune system that specially if you live in the Northeast, like we do, when it starts getting cold out it's tough to keep those levels up because you get that directly from sunlight. Without taking a supplement, that's really the only way you could really get high enough vitamin D levels. Most of us, especially probably our listeners who are probably mostly local right now, are probably walking around with a low vitamin D level.Kelly Krauss (33:04):Mm-hmm (affirmative). Yeah. And, I mean, even they say getting it from the sun might not even beenough, so it's definitely something [crosstalk 00:33:11] I think you need to take.Mike Ercolano (33:11):Right. Right. I don't know our biology or whatever, but I think if you're not really exposed to it that muchyou probably don't really process it very well from the sun.Kelly Krauss (33:25): Right. Right.John Esposito (33:25): Yup.Episode 37 Vocals (Completed 10/21/21) Transcript by Rev.comMike Ercolano (33:26):Like if you go out into the sun and we're in the winter all year and then we go out in the sun for the first time, you don't put sunscreen on you burn because your body's not adjusted to it. If you're not used to absorbing sunlight and making that into ... or taking the vitamin D and using it, we probably are inefficient at doing that compared to other cultures or other regions that are in the sun all the time. It's definitely super important to take a supplement to make sure you're getting it.John Esposito (33:53):Now before you go to your next one, kind of like a one and a half?Mike Ercolano (33:58): A 1B? 1A, 1B?John Esposito (34:00): Yeah.Kelly Krauss (34:00):Because we've already established there's five non-vaccine vaccines, John.John Esposito (34:03):Actually, you can boost the benefit of vitamin D by taking a magnesium supplement with that because magnesium actually helps with the uptake of vitamin D in almost all factors of doing. Whether it's [crosstalk 00:34:17], whether it's intake and through a supplement or you get it through the sun, magnesium actually helps with the intake.Mike Ercolano (34:25):That's a [crosstalk 00:34:26] great point. I forgot all about that. That's a great point. That's actually partof my supplement stack.Kelly Krauss (34:29):Did you take [inaudible 00:34:30] too?Mike Ercolano (34:31):Yeah. I take magnesium and vitamin D, so that's part of it. That's a great point. That's not a 1A. I guess, 1B, because we're giving a supplement recommendation. There's a lot of conflicting information out there about vitamin D. Some people or research says that you shouldn't take more than 4,000 IUs per day. Some says that's right, it's healthy. I take a 5,000 IU vitamin D every single day. I've been doing that for a while. I'm pretty sure I'm pretty healthy. I haven't got my vitamin D levels checked. Just haven't gone for blood work recently, but I don't have a problem taking 5,000 IU. I'm not telling you anybody else should be taking that, but there is a lot of [crosstalk 00:35:14]-Kelly Krauss (35:13):Why are you taking 5,000? Is that what your bottle says?Mike Ercolano (35:17):That's what it says and it's one pill.Kelly Krauss (35:19): Little guy.Mike Ercolano (35:19):I was taking the 1,000 IUs and then I'd have to take a few and I said I'll just buy the 5,000 IU. It just makes it easier. To be honest, we're probably not absorbing 100% of what's in the supplements anyway, so I'm sure there's a loss factor there. Tip number one or tip 1A and 1B is to make sure your vitamin D levels and your magnesium levels are high enough. If not, make sure you're taking adequate levels of supplements for those. Number two, for the non-vaccine vaccine approach to healthy immunity. I like that one.Kelly Krauss (35:57): That really just-Mike Ercolano (35:57): I think that's your title.Kelly Krauss (35:58):... rolls off the tongue there.Mike Ercolano (35:59):I think that's your title right there. I don't know if I'm going to be able to repeat that but it's definitely going to be our title. Would be to get your greens. I don't really care how you get your greens, whether it's through whole foods, which I obviously recommend, or if you take a green shake, but there are plenty of good green shakes that will give you supposedly the adequate level. Now I do both. I try to make sure I do both because I don't think I actually get enough levels of or high enough amounts of greens in my diet, even though I do have it every day. But you do need a lot to get the benefits of it. I do that. I make sure I have spinach and broccoli and all my greens as much as I can, but I also take a green drink supplement every morning. That's how I kind of try and stay on top of that. There's so many great benefits. I mean, we could spend an entire show talking about all the benefits of greens and green veggies and all the-John Esposito (36:56): Absolutely.Mike Ercolano (36:56):... different vitamins and minerals. But because we're starting to run short on time-Kelly Krauss (37:01):Just remember that green is the MVP color.Mike Ercolano (37:04):I like that. Green is the MVP color.Kelly Krauss (37:05):It is, yeah. So when we talk-John Esposito (37:07):It's got the most benefits.Kelly Krauss (37:08):... eating a rainbow of things a day, green is your MVP.Mike Ercolano (37:11): Green is the MVP?Kelly Krauss (37:12): Mm-hmm (affirmative).Mike Ercolano (37:13):All right. Cool. John, do you have a 2B to that too?John Esposito (37:17): I don't actually.Mike Ercolano (37:18):Okay. Good. Number three. Number three for our non-vaccine vaccine approach to healthy immunity.Kelly Krauss (37:27):We should write it on the board.Mike Ercolano (37:29):I got to go back and listen to this anyway. I'm going to edit it. John, you want to take number three.John Esposito (37:34): Sure. [crosstalk 00:37:35]Mike Ercolano (37:35):You said you had two prepared, correct?John Esposito (37:36):Yeah, so this one's actually another supplemental one. This adds more of just antioxidants themselves, but one really specific one's called CoQ10. It's capital C, lowercase O, capital Q, 10. It's antioxidant that has been found to specifically affect a lot of the immunity cells. It gets either cells that you already have in your system working more efficiently or it gets the systems that create those cells working more efficiently as well and actually also helps with the effect of getting those to start up their effect quicker as well. Rather than just being efficient, they're fast, efficient, and creating more of just based out of the supplement of CoQ10.Mike Ercolano (38:19):Now aren't there health benefits to CoQ10 as well?John Esposito (38:24): There is actually.Mike Ercolano (38:25): All right.John Esposito (38:25):Yeah. It helps with specifically blood vessels around the heard. Helps it keep plaque out of those arteriesand veins specifically, but also helps with the firing of the nervous system that affects the heart itself.Mike Ercolano (38:39):All right. That supplement-Kelly Krauss (38:41):That sounds like a good one.Mike Ercolano (38:43):... has been around for a long time [crosstalk 00:38:44].John Esposito (38:44):Yeah. CoQ10s been around for, I think, 25 years, 30 years-Kelly Krauss (38:46):Oh, it's a [crosstalk 00:38:46] long time.John Esposito (38:46):... as available supplement.Mike Ercolano (38:47):I mean, I remember infomercials, for some reason, of CoQ10 with the old people on TV. I don't know. Like 2:00 in the morning watching these infomercials that sell these really expensive CoQ10 to other old people who are probably awake. Just waking up at 4:00 and I'm just going to bed at 4:00 at that time. But CoQ10 has been out for a long time. All right, so that's number three.John Esposito (39:07):Yup.Mike Ercolano (39:08):And that's just a regular supplement that you could get over-the-counter, right?John Esposito (39:11): It is.Kelly Krauss (39:12): Mm-hmm (affirmative).John Esposito (39:12):Yup. You could get it over-the-counter. You could actually get it at any kind of CVS.Mike Ercolano (39:15):Cool. All right. Sounds like you're on a roll. You want to take number four?John Esposito (39:19):Actually, number four was my 1B, but ...Mike Ercolano (39:24): Didn't we go over this?Kelly Krauss (39:24): This is very confusing.Mike Ercolano (39:26): Didn't we go over this?Kelly Krauss (39:27):Well, no. He had two, magnesium and CoQ10.Mike Ercolano (39:30): Oh, but you made it 1B?Kelly Krauss (39:31): Yes.John Esposito (39:32):Yeah. Just because it fit better.Kelly Krauss (39:33):He added the magnesium on because of the D.Mike Ercolano (39:35):All right, so this will be our top 4-1/2-John Esposito (39:38):I can think of another one.Mike Ercolano (39:39):... immunity non-vaccine vaccine natural immunity boosters. I can't talk about immunity without talking about exercise. They go hand in hand. It doesn't have to be incredibly intense exercise. It doesn't have to be trying to beat the world record for marathon time. But exercise on a regular basis, on a consistent basis, at even low intensity like a walk every single day, shows that it significantly raises your immunity and it helps your body just be stronger against viruses, diseases, whatever, all the stuff that we're going to encounter, especially over here in the northeast for the next couple months ahead of us. Exercise and even more specifically outdoor exercise. That will be my 4B.John Esposito (40:38):If you are fighting some kind of infection, getting exercise in the 50 to 60% heart rate zone has actuallybeen found to increase-Kelly Krauss (40:46): Push it out?John Esposito (40:46):Yeah. To push it out quicker and it also just helps recovery.Mike Ercolano (40:49):All right. Mr. Science Guy. Get your heart rate to 50 or 60%, right?John Esposito (40:53):Yup. To our Myzone users, that's blue and green.Kelly Krauss (40:57):Yellow is 70 to 80, green is 60 to 70.John Esposito (41:01):Yeah, so blue and green. Get yourselves in those blue and green zones. You know what? I can throw anumber five if you want a number five, Mike.Mike Ercolano (41:07):All right. I guess we're number five then. Let me just finish up with the exercise first.John Esposito (41:11): Of course.Kelly Krauss (41:11):I'd like to segue off that too before we get to number five.John Esposito (41:14): Cool.Mike Ercolano (41:14):Okay. All right. You guys want to take a ticket, a number? You're going first?Kelly Krauss (41:18): Oh, are you done?Mike Ercolano (41:19):No, not yet. No. Exercise it's something that is proven to increase our immune system and something that's free and something that anybody can do. It's something that you can do at your desk. You could stand up and exercise. It sounds all familiar. I've said this before a million times on a lot of other shows. Maybe not a million times considering this is episode 37, but this number ... Well, number four now, not our final one, but number four, should be something that could be implemented into your life right now. It will be not only beneficial for obviously your longterm health, but if we're talking specifically about immunity, raising your heart rate up a little bit, even just a little bit like John said, 50, 60%, will significantly boost your immune system. Like I said, specifically outside if you can. Why? I don't know. I think it's like a-Kelly Krauss (42:20): Fresh air.Mike Ercolano (42:20):... old wives' tale or something. I'm not allowed to say that anymore, right?Kelly Krauss (42:27): What?Mike Ercolano (42:27): Wives' tale.Kelly Krauss (42:27): Oh, you're not?Mike Ercolano (42:28): That's offensive.Kelly Krauss (42:29): It is?Mike Ercolano (42:29):Yeah. I don't know. I think it's offensive. I heard-Kelly Krauss (42:31): Probably. I don't know now.Mike Ercolano (42:32):I heard marijuana was offensive to Mexicans because it was a term that was like-Kelly Krauss (42:38): I highly doubt that.Mike Ercolano (42:40):... given to them. I don't know. Anyway, we don't need to talk about that. Getting exercise outside does, in my opinion too, it does boost your immune system and you're getting exposed to outdoor nature elements so not only may you get your ... Maybe you'll get your vitamin D up a little bit, but just being exposed to the outdoors. When I was a little baby or, I guess, infant my Russian, I think it was Russian, doctor told my mom right after I was born to take me outside every day for 30 minutes a day no matter what and I was born in November.Kelly Krauss (43:16):Were you jaundiced? Were you yellow?Mike Ercolano (43:18):No. No. He said, "Even through the winter take him outside for 30 minutes or so. Get him exposed to being outside. Don't worry about ... He'll be all right. He'll be fine. Take him." My mom took me outside and I don't know if it made me healthier or whatnot, but that was just that old school Russian. Build his immune system by taking him outside in the cold and whatever-Kelly Krauss (43:42): Yes, by using nature.Mike Ercolano (43:42):... but there's something to that.Kelly Krauss (43:45): Absolutely.Mike Ercolano (43:45):There's something to that so get outside and exercise. If you really can't get outside because it's too cold just do some exercise every day. Get moving. Get your heart rate up. Get a little sweat going and you'll be able to be much stronger with fighting off any type of viruses, bacteria, whatever, that comes your way. All right, John, let's hear your number five.John Esposito (44:04):And actually number five's going to be kind of tailoring off your last little bit there being out in the cold. Actually, cold's susceptibility or being out in the cold or cold showers or anything of the sorts has actually been proven through multiple-Kelly Krauss (44:18): Cold showers?John Esposito (44:18):Cold showers are [crosstalk 00:44:20] actually one of the best things for you is to have cold showers for the sake of your immunity, skin health, joint health, muscle health. For the most part, cold showers are ideal. They suck, but they're ideal. But being old in the cold too has had some kind of sign of exposure to helping fight off illness or helping to boost immunity.Mike Ercolano (44:40):Yeah. Again, it goes back to the old school thinking about the bath house and stuff where you'd go into the steam room and then jump into the cold plunge and go back. That's been around forever. It's been done by, I don't know, Europeans and stuff. It hasn't been part of our culture, but it's getting, I think, more and more exposure into our culture. Now I'm getting ads on Instagram for cold plunges that you can put in your backyard or around your deck. I think it's something that can really benefit if you could muster up the balls to do it. Jump in a nice cold water, going outside in the cold with minimal clothes on. Not naked unless you're into that.John Esposito (45:30):Yeah. If that's your thing done it.Kelly Krauss (45:33):Have you guys done it? You've done a polar plunge, right?John Esposito (45:33):Oh, I do polar plunges every year.Mike Ercolano (45:34): I never have, no.Kelly Krauss (45:36): You should.John Esposito (45:36):They're not bad. It's invigorating. It really is.Mike Ercolano (45:40):When I used to go to the Turkish spa with one of my Albanian friends who used to take me there and wewould go we would do the contrast. We would go in the sauna for a while or the steam room or whatever and crank it up really high and then right outside was the cold plunge and we would ... It's freezing cold and you'd jump in right away and spend as long as you can until you can't do I anymore and then you come out. You did it back and forth. It's crazy how everything feels different. Even breathing is different when you're going through the process. It's just a whole different experience. Supposedly, there's a lot of immune boosting. Boosting. Did I say that weird? Immune boosting.Kelly Krauss (46:25): You were fine until-John Esposito (46:26): The health benefits.Kelly Krauss (46:26):... you went back to revisit it.Mike Ercolano (46:28): Benefits, so-Kelly Krauss (46:29): Yeah.Mike Ercolano (46:30):Cool. All right. Go and get outside in the cold.John Esposito (46:32):Yup. Embrace the season we're in right now, especially on the East Coast.Kelly Krauss (46:35):Well, if you just look at what your ... Our grandparents were probably a similar age. You just look at what they did. They were so healthy and they all did that kind ... They went out for [crosstalk 00:46:45] walks. That's the stuff they did.Mike Ercolano (46:46): Yeah. I walk every day.Kelly Krauss (46:47): Natural remedies.Mike Ercolano (46:48): I walk every day now.John Esposito (46:48): I walk three miles-Mike Ercolano (46:49):I try to walk every day.John Esposito (46:50): ... up a hill in the snow.Kelly Krauss (46:51): Both ways, John.Mike Ercolano (46:51): Both ways.John Esposito (46:51): Both ways.Kelly Krauss (46:52): Both ways.Mike Ercolano (46:53):That's funny. My bus stop was actually up a hill-Kelly Krauss (46:56): It was?Mike Ercolano (46:56):... and it was actually a pretty steep mountain that I had to walk up even when it snowed.John Esposito (47:02): Yeah?Mike Ercolano (47:03): But I had shoes on.Kelly Krauss (47:04):Well, that was good. And a coat obviously.Mike Ercolano (47:05):And a coat. And when I got home it was downhill. It wasn't uphill both ways.Kelly Krauss (47:09): That's amazing.Mike Ercolano (47:10):My life. I lived a cushy life.Kelly Krauss (47:12): Yeah, it was easier.Mike Ercolano (47:13):Yeah. My entitled life. But get outside. Get outside, some exercise. I made a commitment to myself I'mgoing to walk outside no matter what unless it's-John Esposito (47:24): Blizzard.Mike Ercolano (47:25):... [treacheral 00:47:25] or I'm going to get my life threatened because of the weather. That's why I bought this coat. This is a raincoat. I guess it's a climbing coat because of the saying on the back of it. It's made waterproof or whatever. I have new shoes coming. The bottoms are kind of all weather.Kelly Krauss (47:42): Are they white?Mike Ercolano (47:43): No, they're black.Kelly Krauss (47:44):All right. Good. [crosstalk 00:47:45]Mike Ercolano (47:44):They're black. I got the ... I forgot the name of it but they're like the minimalist shoes, but they don't look stupid like the ones Bryan used to wear. Remember the ones that Bryan used to wear with the toes.Kelly Krauss (47:56): Huh.John Esposito (47:56):Wasn't I just talking about this the other day?Mike Ercolano (47:58): Were you? Were you?Kelly Krauss (48:00):And he's scared to wear them because of you.John Esposito (48:03):Oh, he can wear them. I'll just make fun of you. Oh perfect.Kelly Krauss (48:06): Oh, this is perfect.John Esposito (48:07):[crosstalk 00:48:07] I know what I'm ordering. The toes.Mike Ercolano (48:09): Well this is ... here.Kelly Krauss (48:09):Let me see. I need a visual on this.Mike Ercolano (48:11):No, these look like sneakers. These look like regular. The same ones you got.John Esposito (48:16):No, I'm going for Barefoot, like the Barefoot shoes or Barefoot brand.Mike Ercolano (48:21): Okay. Well, anyway-Kelly Krauss (48:23):John, yours are to train in, right?John Esposito (48:25):Yeah. Mine are to train in and-Kelly Krauss (48:26): And yours are to-John Esposito (48:28): ... normal life.Mike Ercolano (48:28):To walk in or you can train in them too, workout in them, but I work out barefoot anyway. I don't need ... If I'm working on somebody else's gym, I guess, I'll bring those shoes. But I never wear ... The only time I put shoes on is when I got to push the sled. I mean, I could probably ... It's going to take me forever to find. I'll find the name of this company.John Esposito (48:47):Is it Vivobarefoot?Mike Ercolano (48:48): Yes.John Esposito (48:50):That's who I bought my shoes from.Kelly Krauss (48:52): Oh.Mike Ercolano (48:52): Yeah. They look good.Kelly Krauss (48:52):Well, this is all coming full circle here.Mike Ercolano (48:54):No. They look good. They look all right. Yeah, here you go. Here, I'll show you, Kel. I'll show you one.Kelly Krauss (48:59):Now why did you change your shoes?Mike Ercolano (49:01): What do you mean? Like-Kelly Krauss (49:02):Well, yeah. Is this a specific shoe for walking.Mike Ercolano (49:05):Oh, it's for ... I mean, these ones are made for the outdoor, but they're minimalist shoes that don't lookstupid.John Esposito (49:12):Yeah. They look like actual shoes. They have pairs that look exactly like a pair of Vans.Kelly Krauss (49:17):Oh, okay. [crosstalk 00:49:17]Mike Ercolano (49:17):So outdoor. See, here's outdoor.John Esposito (49:21):Thank you, Vivobarefoot for [crosstalk 00:49:22]-Mike Ercolano (49:22): All weather.John Esposito (49:23): ... good products.Kelly Krauss (49:23): Yes.Mike Ercolano (49:26): Let's see.Kelly Krauss (49:27):Is that the brand that Bryan used to wear?Mike Ercolano (49:29): I don't think so.John Esposito (49:30):I think it's one of the pairs he used to wear, but not the toe shoes. [crosstalk 00:49:33] They don't maketoe shoes.Mike Ercolano (49:34): This is the ones I ordered.Kelly Krauss (49:34): Oh, okay.Mike Ercolano (49:36):Because the other ones were white and I didn't want to wear white outside, so these are black. Theseare black. See, they kind of look like a sneaker.Kelly Krauss (49:46): Yup.Mike Ercolano (49:47): They're not-Kelly Krauss (49:47): Very much so.Mike Ercolano (49:47):They're not ugly.Kelly Krauss (49:47): No.Mike Ercolano (49:48): They have other ones that-John Esposito (49:50):They make trail shoes. They make hiking boots.Mike Ercolano (49:53):They do. They do. Yeah.

It's something that I've committed to myself because I see the benefits. I was wearing my headphones and I went out and spent $50 on new headphones that I don't wear anymore now because I like the silence. I was listening to podcasts when I was walking around. I always listen to podcasts and books when I'm driving. That's supposed to be your downtime, when you're driving, your alone time. My walk is my time too kind of. Disengage, I guess, disconnect.

Foreshadowed by Critical Thinking Part 1: Know Thyself, Critical Thinking Part 2, explores the symbiotic relationship between Inductive Reasoning and Deductive Reasoning in a way that only quantum physics can illustrate. Using the quasi-Inductive, quasi-Deductive critical thinking method, we explore how critical thinkers knew how severe the COVID-19 pandemic would become as early as mid-late January 2020. Then we'll look into the future with inductive critical thought and discern the nightmarish vision for 2021 and after, also discernible in January 2020, if the pandemic isn't decisively controlled, vis-a-vis: viral genetic mutation. And, in the interest of leaving everyone better than I found them, we'll reveal the solution to arresting the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in a month or less. Ending the episode on a lighter note, we'll harness the power of inductive critical thought to hunt white collar criminals using Scotty's Warp-Beaming Equation.
In the last 20 years, proposal professionals have done a lot of work in developing best practices around the proposal process, defining the skills and competencies required to craft a winning RFP. But we have yet to clearly define what professionalism means for our trade craft in terms of mindset or attitude. So, how has the proposal industry evolved over time? How can our community set the trends for a better future? How do we want others to see us? Ajay Patel has an extensive history in the proposal space, developing expertise in entrepreneurship, strategic partnerships, and business development. Today, he serves as the President and CEO of SMA, a management consulting firm that helps its clients compete to win business. Ajay received an MBA in Strategy and Finance from USC's Marshall School of Business and a BA in Physics from Johns Hopkins. On this episode, Ajay joins us to share a historical perspective on the evolution of the proposal industry and weigh in on the areas the community should look at moving forward. He explores the possibility of creating a process for proposal strategy, the development of visual literacy, and the pivotal role narrative plays in the RFP response. Listen in to understand the five models of nonfiction storytelling and learn Ajay's take on what professionalism means in our trade craft.
