Hundreds of thousands of Americans are on strike, in industries from automotive to entertainment. But the history of strikes in America goes back much further than most people realize. And there's a logical reason for why strikes are successful, popular, and on the rise, even though the number of unions in the United States has decreased by almost 300%. Join me and Jihi as we walk through one of the most contentious issues facing America today and what it means for the future of your career, your family, and our economy.

I don’t know how long YouTube will allow this video to stay up. In it, I break down the 3 types of lying techniques President Biden used to influence the American People during his Emergency Presidential address last week. The world is struggling to make sense of what is happening between Israel and Palestine right now. The toll of victims continues to rise, an unprecedented siege of Gaza is expected any day now, and a humanitarian crisis including millions of innocent people is unfolding before our eyes. At the peak of international tensions, US President Biden made an address to encourage the American people to stand with Israel and continue support to Ukraine. While I agree with President Biden that America is a beacon of hope, freedom, and power for the world, I cannot stand aside quietly and let his Presidential address continue to confuse and mislead the same Americans we both swore to protect and defend.

The Hamas incursion into Israel shocked the world, but Israel's response did not. The humanitarian crisis developing in Gaza with each passing day is already capturing the attention of the world within days of the surprise attack. And what comes next is both sad and predictable, in much the same way as Netanyahu's response to the original attack was both sad and predictable.

Every parent worries about the trauma they cause their child. And every adult knows the trauma they endured growing up. But what most people don’t realize is that there is a formula that can turn childhood trauma into high-achievement. The same children that grow up feeling ignored, unloved, and not-good-enough can become the adults that do amazing things. CIA knows the formula, and today Jihi and I are giving it to you.

This weekend, the terrorist group Hamas launched a successful surprise attack into Israel that left the world shocked. While some are calling the attack an intelligence failure, Israel has declared war on Hamas in the Gaza strip. With an active war in Europe between Ukraine and Russia rounding a second year, the Middle East was on the brink of peace. So the question everyone is asking is 'Why did Hamas attack NOW?'

Either you are uninformed or you're a completeantisemitic sicko. the general wartime ratio of combatants to civilian deaths are 1:9. The U.S. in Iraq achieved 1:4. In Gaza it has been 1:1.5, and that is despite the fact that hamas has been using human shields and dressing like civilians. Do your fucking homework before you say such things!
Your episode titles have almost nothing to do with what you talk about each episode. A+ on titles and C- on content.
Re:the marriage question. If you and your partner do not both score at least the top 70% on conscientiousness on the big 5, do not get married. ESPECIALLY if one of you scores over 70% in openness and is low in concienciosness (that person should not marry period, they are better single). Also, before marriage, take a 2 week vacation together to a country you dont speak the language. Sh*t gets real by day 5, and masks drop off.

need to back away from the mic a bit... way too many wet mouth noises. Other than that it's interesting.
its a bullshit podcast
