102 - FwTK: The Future is the Present, You Just Don't Know it Yet...

Today TK's new mic got us a little distracted and caused some racially uncomfortable moments. We got over it. We dove into how weird it is that TK doesn't care to check tasks off his list after he's done them and how obsessed I am with list-checking. We discussed the danger of believing you are owed anything. We touched on positive rights (terrible) and negative rights (wonderful but still sometimes a trap), the weirdness of doing things you hate because they are "cheap" or "free", how not to build social capital, why learning to use Google beats everything else, and, most exciting to me, how to gain an edge by seeing the future as already here. "It's dead alright. I didn't kill it. It was dead when I got here." - Larry the Liquidator Mentioned in the episode: Wayne Dyer, Danny DeVito, Other People's Money, Breaking Smart, Taylor Pearson, TK's nephew schooling him in basketball, The Great Divorce, Michael Huemer, the ATR 2100, and lots more I'm forgetting.
