Episode transcript
Welcome to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast. This podcast doesn't really have a specific theme. It covers a lot of my interests. It covers a lot of other people's interests. It goes into philosophy, spirituality, business, how to live a good life, many different things. Ultimately, I don't believe in having themes for the things that we do. We can categorize the things, and obviously we categorize things all the time, but I like to keep things open ended a continuous process of discovering the truth as it is. And the truth is tricky because we can't really get to the truth exactly, because the truth is nonlinear. It is, in the words of John Vervaeke, combinatorially explosive. Even the truth of this window that I'm looking at, the window itself, the glass that makes up the window, is combinatorially explosive. The cup that holds your water is combinatorially explosive. You cannot model that cup totally in your head. You're only getting an image of it with your eyes and your brain. That's not the actual cup itself. So this show is a discovery of truth wherever it may appear. By talking to people from various different fields. I've talked to artists, engineers, entrepreneurs, investors, refugees, just talking to anybody who has a glimpse into the truth. And through this conversation, through this mutual inquiry into what is true, what is real, hopefully we get to something that is helpful for to you
