Mother's Day. For most of us, it's a Sunday in May marked by greeting cards, flowers, long-distance phone calls, and maybe a brunch reservation you made weeks ago to avoid the rush. It's a sweet, sentimental holiday—a time to pause and show appreciation for the women who raised us, loved us, and often kept the whole family running quietly behind the scenes. But this day we all know and love didn't just appear out of nowhere. It's not ancient like Christmas or rooted in a religious calendar like Easter. Mother's Day, as we celebrate it in the United States, has a very specific origin story. And that story is tangled up in heartache, determination, public health reform, the Civil War, and—believe it or not—a bit of corporate frustration. So let's take a few minutes together and trace it back to where it all began...

After a great phone call with my buddy, and fellow podcast enthusiast, Coach Dave - I saw this posting that reminded me of so many things.  Once again from Power of Positivity (@LIVEpositivity) ”There's a story behind every person. There is a reason why they're the way they are. Think about that before you judge someone.”  So many simple reminders for me to not only stop judging people who I may not agree with, have said and done things that I may not like - and especially not judging myself so harshly!  We have opportunities every single day - in fact many moments of every day to judge less, as we all have so many reasons why we do what we do. One thing for sure is that I know I have plenty to work on to keep trying to improve, every day I have!!

You may be familiar with how Rogue One ends. But do you know how ANDOR began? The critically acclaimed Star Wars series almost didn't happen. The goal of ANDOR was to detail Cassian Andor's journey from a child of war to a self-focused mercenary to a selfless hero of the early rebellion. And like the rebels taking down the Death Star, the story behind bringing this one-in-a-million drama to the small screen is just as wild, and just as compelling. Join host David Quinn as he explores the making of the monumental first season, and how showrunner Tony Gilroy transformed it into one of the greatest Star Wars stories ever told. This is, in the words of Gilroy, “always protein, never icing.” And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production! *This episode focuses on the events leading up to the series' release in 2022, and does not contain any spoilers from seasons one and two.

Ky Dickens is the award-winning filmmaker behind "The Telepathy Tapes," the viral podcast phenomenon. This conversation explores the intersection of neurodiversity and consciousness as Ky shares her journey documenting non-speaking autistic individuals with apparent telepathic abilities. We discuss her transformation from pragmatic skeptic to someone witnessing replicable telepathic demonstrations, the concept of "The Hill" (where individuals telepathically gather), and how these discoveries challenge our materialist conceptualization of reality. As I oscillate between wonder and skepticism, Ky provides a steady compass through my conflicted intellectual terrain. Ky's work is a profound invitation to question the crude facsimile we call reality. This conversation is mind-blowing! Enjoy!

Welcome to this classic episode. Classics are my favorite episodes from the past 10 years, published once a month. These are N of 1 conversations with N of 1 people. There aren't many people like Cyan Banister. Her life story is remarkable. She was homeless at a young age, dropped out of high school, and five years ago she suffered an extremely rare stroke. Yet, in spite of everything, she is one of the most optimistic and curious people you can hope to meet. Cyan is also one of the great angel investors of this era, having invested early in SpaceX, Uber, Postmates, and Deepmind to name a few winners. She became the first female investing partner at Peter Thiel's Founders Fund and now invests at Long Journey Ventures. Our conversation is as much about investing as it is about the essence of life and how connecting with that will help us in our professional pursuits. It is also full of awesome stories about people and companies like SpaceX and Bill Murray. Please enjoy this great conversation with Cyan Banister.
