Episode 7: With John G (Attention and Focus, Curiosity and Empathy, Fatherhood and the Big Questions)

Welcome back to Jonah Asks!Meet John G. He's a friend from college who I've rarely seen over the last twenty years. He grew up in the woods in North Carolina. He now lives in Beijing, China, where he's resided since 2003. Strangely enough, we didn't talk much about China during this conversation. John is a thoughtful and curious person, great at engaging. It's a testament to John has a unique conversational style and ability to convey the process of rolling things over in his mind while speaking, improvising. To support this podcast:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/jonahasksThe conversation topics include:attention and distraction; psychology and the complexity of identity; fandom; the power of silence; technology in our lives; consuming politics; fatherhood; awareness and social justice.Thanks as always for listening, sharing and subscribing.To support this podcast:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/jonahasksStay Safe and Remember---this is temporary,Jonah
