I let loose on what I perceive is the current state of affairs in this country and how, in my opinion we got here. I share an epiphany that I had the other day about how the media uses headlines designed to elicit emotional responses to get us to support their agendas rather than reporting the facts and letting US decide what we believe. In the not too distant past we trusted our news gathering organizations and newscasters. We relied on their investigative search for the TRUTH to present fact based reporting so that we could make intelligent decisions about important issues that affect us. We took for granted that they performed a diligent search for truth supported by the facts in their reporting and so when Newscasters like Walter Cronkite said something on the evening news we believed it to be truthful because we trusted their news gathering skills. In today's media landscape that is all but gone. The media is mistrusted because of the accusations of "Fake News", highly edited video, comments taken out of context all in the name of getting that "gotcha" moment. I share my own personal insights about how I am trying to navigate these challenges and the importance of constantly seeking fact based truth and understanding.Support the show

This week we sat down with Robert DeLaurentis, pilot, real-estate agent, author and citizen of the world. Nicknamed the “Zen Pilot” Robert has completed a successful equatorial circumnavigation and is currently in the middle of a pole to pole circumnavigation. We caught Robert while he was grounded in Switzerland between legs of his current journey. Show topics include: previous circumnavigation experiences, international bureaucracy, engine and technical failures, preparing for big journeys, chasing dreams, and so much more. This insightful episode will be entertaining for pilots and non-pilots alike. Listen in as DJ and Robert discuss life, pandemics, motivations and offer insights into the mind of a pilot.

In this episode I spoke about the importance of doing our own research about the topics that we care about and why we should test the veracity of what media outlets and politicians tell us.I also talked about why I think Trump will be re-elected in a landslide and why the Democrats will most likely lose the House. Lastly, I opined about the lack of civility in political debate and the dangers of being ideologically rigid.
