E21 Jeremy Gilley: Why is there an International Day of Peace?
from It's No Fluke · host Shorty Awards
We’re dropping this episode on the United Nation's International Day of Peace. A day that actor, filmmaker, activist, Jeremy Gilley set out to create in 1999 and achieved. Big ideas are hard. How he managed to pull this off is fascinating. But now nearly 25 years later we talk about what makes us optimistic, pessimistic and motivated about the world today. And there’s one quote from Jeremy late in the episode that is sticking with me. “If greed got us into this mess then maybe greed is what gets us out.” This is a frenetic 40 minutes about how to take on big ideas, how to find your passion and how to leave the world better than you found it.
