And . . . just how much indoctrination, I mean education, is needed to come to the morally superiors conclusion of progressive social constructionist on all matters?

Planet Lockdown & Vax-Up: Control Media, Control the Masses [E241]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 19 Jul 2021 02:00:00 +0000

The establishment powers that rule the media waves say that "Vac Hesitancy" is being driven by "Misinformation" and that misinformation MUST BE STOPPED, as it is killing untold millions of people . . . probably even entire civilizations of yet to be discovered extraterrestrial life forms!
But who decided what is "misinformation"?
How is that information and those sources deemed credible?
And MAYBE, the hesitancy ACROSS THE GLOBE (As global protest demonstrate) if being fueled by LACK of transparency and the Totalitarian censorship of the ruling elites . . . if the Science is so evident and CLEAR then why the fear?
Why the control?
Why the Censorship?

- Life before free market capitalism & the Industrial Revolution

Equality and fairness (finally) comes to the Olympics and Science is Censored [E234]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 24 Jun 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Men and women sports weren’t divided because men and women FEEL difference, think differently or have different personality. But because Men’s frames are built stronger. Bones denser. Frame different.

The entire trans movement says “I was born in the wrong body”. So if someone says my mind is women by body male... then there is an agreement that the BODY is male. And cutting someone off or taking hormone blockers does not change the fundamental difference between XX and XY.

“Trans women are women” well. They are biological males who identify as female.

After all—isn’t gender merely a social construct? So if it merely a construct then why does a bio male need to complete in with bio females? And why is there even bio female sports, we weight class, or special Olympics?

IOC Statement

TESTOSTERONE LEVELS

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30136295/#:~:text=Results%3A%20In%20the%20healthy%2C%20normal,%2D2.0%20nmol%2FL).

In the healthy, normal males and females, there was a clear bimodal distribution of testosterone levels, with the lower end of the male range being four- to fivefold higher than the upper end of the female range(males 8.8-30.9 nmol/L, females 0.4-2.0 nmol/L).

PEAK AGE

From the cross-sectional analysis of world championship results, at the 90th percentile, the age at peak performance was 26.0 years for men (95% CI: 24.9, 27.1) and 25.0 years for women (95% CI: 23.9, 27.4). https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6732744/

You can see the age spread here. Of the winning male athletes, 66.5% of them in the last four Olympics had an average age of 24-27 years, 22% were in the 20-23 age bracket, 8% were 28 to 31 year olds and 4% of male athletes were between 32 and 35 years old, while only 3% were between 17 and 19 years old. https://torokhtiy.com/blogs/warm-body-cold-mind/weightlifting-and-age

Competing as Gavin Hubbard, her birth name, Hubbard set national records in junior competition and had a best, combined snatch and clean and jerk total of 300 kilograms (661 pounds). https://www.today.com/news/laurel-hubbard-becomes-1st-openly-transgender-athlete-compete-olympics-t222987

Cost of a media-ted world: teen suicide, 'virtual intimacy', population collapse [E231]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 14 Jun 2021 02:00:00 +0000

We live in a plastic world. From living fake lives on social media, to having our lives and information MEDIATED by the MEDIA. And people are WAKING up to the fact that it is all fake.

Micah Meadowcroft in the America conservative – it was already deeply fake. - https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/it-was-all-already-deeply-fake/

We are all up in arms about “what if deep fake tech” over takes the world and we no longer know what is real and what is fake! Does it matter?
We were told masks work and the virus came from wet market and ANYONE who said otherwise was silences… then lo and behold “ Emails from Fauci confirm.

“Fauci Admits Masks are Unnecessary https://www.theamericanconservative.com/state-of-the-union/anthony-faucis-most-revealing-emails-from-foia-request/

The result from the decisions we made from the pandemic has grave rippling affects:

Half of young adults think one-night stands will be thing of past after pandemic ends thanks to ‘virtual intimacy’

https://www.studyfinds.org/virtual-intimacy-making-one-night-stands-thing-of-past/

What impact will this have on the future generation? What impact will it have on population grown?

There is already an MASSIVE rise of Antinatalism – which is the belief the procreating is morally wrong. Because we are destroying the planet.

CHINA allow couple to have three children. BCC
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-57303592
"China has announced that it will allow couples to have up to three children, after census data showed a steep decline in birth rates.
China scrapped its decades-old one-child policy in 2016, replacing it with a two-child limit which has failed to lead to a sustained upsurge in births.
The cost of raising children in cities has deterred many Chinese couples."

With an aging population and 35 MILLION Each men than women they won’t be able to replace their population, and will face difficulty carrying for an aging population as the work force diminish will result in a weakening economy.

UFO-llow the money [E229]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 07 Jun 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Pentagon releases a repost on recent UFO sighting . . . should you go out and buy a tin foil hat? Should you build an underground bunker? Or . . .should "follow the money".

US Pentagon is releasing what they know about the UFO or UAP (Unidentified Arial Phenomena) rightly named.

BUT what is has been released?

How should we think about it?

Most importantly why is this coming out NOW?

Is there a deeper reason to this all?

Which craft is shaping media narratives? Witchcraft. [E228]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 03 Jun 2021 02:00:00 +0000

You many ask be asking . . .Which craft is shaping media narratives? And the answer is Witchcraft is shaping media narrative

We have been talking at length about the ideas and narratives shaping global thought and society. But what are the forces shaping the media, and informating the narrative, what is influencing theZiegiest if you will.

As Balaji said on Tim Ferris' podcast: Media codes Humans. Media, the narrative controls the way humans think, but there is a greater reality that influences and controls and informs the narratives that the Media pumps out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eim8REOYLzA

We can get into one world gov conspiracy theory here FAST. And illuminati, globalist agenda… But really we are asking—what is in the ZEIGIST that is shaping the minds and thoughts of humanity?

And it is the spirit realm. Sounds Kooky? Maybe, but it is common place in pop culture. We see the spirit realm and occult layed out plainly in shows like, Stranger Things, or Harry potter. Most people follow their sign, attend Taro card readings, and meditate to reach higher levels of consciousness through cleansing their auras.

Even the core religious faith teach that high places, and blood sacrifices are powerful to gain spiritual dominance.

Very few people across the globe are truly athest—most believe in the new age spiritual realm.

Hitler and the Nazis recognized they could gain dominance through channeling the Occult to gain strategy demonic empowerment. Eric Kurlander, professor of history at Stetson University and author of Hitler's Monsters: A Supernatural History of the Third Reich, for an eye-opening look at the occult ideas, esoteric sciences, and pagan religions touted by Nazi Germany in the service of power: https://youtu.be/96r_nvkC30Y

Alex Jones (I know I know) despite being hated and deep into many controversial conspiracies and wild theories, is one of the few people who speak on the global culture war through the lens of a supernatural battle for the hearts and minds of mankind. Alex shares at length on Joe Rogan's podcast about his theories. https://youtu.be/-5yh2HcIlkU

(For the record, I do not endorse Alex Jones, nor to I listen to him. From what I have heard of him share on the supernatural most comes from a lens of focusing on and fighting forces of spiritual darkness using secular--linking to this show is not my endorsement of either Joe Rogan or Alex Jones).

For all of Alex's misgivings . . . he does have one thing correct--there is a greater spiritual battle taking place, and if we only try to fight in the natural realm we will be stuck fighting our own shadows.

Until next time… Be a purpose seeker, truth lover, and own your future.

Chirag Desai comes back on the show to discuss twitter skirting compliance with India's laws and labels information as "manipulated media"--the questions is, do the fact checkers have proof?

Big tech continues their censorship and spin of the "Facts" which begs the questions . . . are we reaching a tipping point? And will we see the disintegration of big techs ability to control global narratives?

Cancel Cancel Culture with Rachael Skrobot [E226]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 27 May 2021 02:00:00 +0000

On today's show my wife, Rachael Skrobot, joins me to talk about a non-controversial post that seems to be far more controversial.

When Rachael posted a reel about canceling cancel culture and giving space saying, "hey, we can disagree and still be friends, we don't have to cancel one another," of course people came running to disagree and saying, "but no we should totally cancel some people" (which is fine because that was the point of the post, we can disagree) But you'd at least think that we could agree on the fact that we can disagree on important topics.

Apparently the double standard and self defeating argument of cancel culture is lost on some...

Rachael and I talk through cancel culture, the redefinition of racism, healthy boundaries, and how to win the culture war against cancel culture.

Radicalism or Radical Reconciliation [E224]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 20 May 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Left wing media is pushing a radical agenda, using clever argument that are catching on.

Claiming:

"Apartheid State"
"Not a conflict"
"One sided flight"
Hamas is good
Jews and Arabs lived peacefully until Israel became a nation.

We tackled some of these . . . but more importantly we move beyond to talk about a solution one that you and I can walk out that will improve our every day lives and relationships.

Free Palestine . . . but from who? [E223]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 17 May 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Israel and Palestine are nearly in full blown war . . .

What caused this rapid escalation?
Was Sheikh Jarrah a neighborhood in East Jerusalem, the tipping point? Or was it a red herring to cover for, yet another, failed Palestinian election?

We go through some of the escalating events leading to horrific bombing, riots, violence, and hatred on all side.

Global crisis, brink of war, and growing bonsai? [E222]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 13 May 2021 02:00:00 +0000

As war breaks out in the Middle East, pipelines are held ransom in USA, and India continues to be shaken . . . we IGNORE all of that and talk about something far more important--the art of Bonsai.

We IGNORE the urgency of the hour (even though there is much to be had) to we focus on the LONG view of our lives.

The 24 hr news and anxiety cycle drives us to click, taps, views, and shares and with it is stealing our purpose and destiny. But when we step back and focus on the 100 year view of our lives and the generational transfer of heritage and legacy we move into patience, clarity, willingness to sacrifice ignoring the fear and criticism.

Media and Politics weaponized science & ignored nuance. Aquinas provides solutions. [E221]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 10 May 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Rona Started out unifying the globe and political parties around, Thomas Aquinas would say everyone was seeking to “Preserving Life, and Intending the Good”. . . but it wasn’t long before the “SCIENCE” wasn’t settled, and conflicting world views began to collide on a magnitude equal (or greater than) the magnitude of the problem the Globe was, and is, facing. The course of action that was at first “common sense” was vilified in the media and the one world splinted once again into warring faction all arguing their facts, science, and common sense. . .

We break down how what could have been a unifying fight turned into even greater political and social fracturing. A few driving factors was:

1) Politicizing Data and Science
2) Media fear mongering
3) Quest for power and control

We break down how we can begin to weigh the difference of world views and pull back into a harmonious balance the polarized conversations and arguments through breakdown worldview using Aquinas' Four Laws to understand where we SHOULD have nuance in public policy, and where we shouldn't . . . helping those who stand for rugged individualism see how those pushing for centralized control are intending the good. While helping those who support centralized control understand the trade off and arguments being made for individuals taking their own risk assessment.

Activist juror Brandon Mitchell exposes self in Chauvin Show Trial: never about guilt or innocence [E220]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 06 May 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Activist Juror No. 52 Brandon Mitchell may have perjured himself in court leading to Chauvin winning appeal . . . but the trail was never about guilt or innocence of Derek Chauvin, but it was "America on Trial" and America is guilt because it is . . . well America.

If Chauvin indeed failed to have a fair trial with an impartial Jury . . . what are we to do about it? Do we bow to the mob and due away with justice and a fair trial? Or do we watch cities across America burn again as the mob enacts it's revenge.

It would seem this is what the progressive want. After all if the system is broken then we must tear it down. And what better way to tear down a system than if there is a red herring to rally around.

The risk to society, to all of us no matter what side of the aisle we sit, is that when the notions of guilt and innocence is done away with and all we have left is class, race, gender, and "power" . . . we will all, sooner or later, fall victim to the gulags of progressivism just as Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn warned.

Are we repeating China's colossal mistake? [E218]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 29 Apr 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Climate change is at it again, destroying the future of billions, and this time with the help of the UN and globalist who see fit to stop developing nations from developing because if the west has learned one thing at all after decades of prosperous development is that development is BAD . . . infact it is maldevelopment.

But hopefully we can take a lesson from CHINA and the dark mistakes they made in the past of trying to fix their population problem with the one child policy (which China estimates took the lives of 400 million babies).

And, a TRUE hero to look up to and celebrate for his bravery and selflessness--Jimi (Folajimi Olubunmi-Adewole).

Race has nothing to do with it: Derek Chauvin, Tony Timpa, Ma'Khia Bryan [E217]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 26 Apr 2021 02:00:00 +0000

When we exchange the truth for a lie strange things happen in the universe . . . we gain super power to create illogical loop holes that leave you dazed and confused.

In this episode we cover

Was there "reasonable doubt" in the trial of Derek Chauvin OR was a jury afraid of being doxx and attacked by the angry BLM mob if they stopped to look at the evidence.
AOC weighs in on the verdict (of course it isn't Justice). It is never enough.
The Details of Tony Timpa case (but remember no one cared).
And the break down of Ma'khai case.
And Morgan Freeman weighs in to tell us what we should all do.

We cover the fact this has nothing to do with race.

Victim-sainthood, lie of greatness, and unlocking your destiny - Lucas Skrobot feat. on The Journey Onwards Podcast

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 22 Apr 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Lucas was recently interviewed on The Journey Onward Podcast.

Anand, host of the The Journey Onward Podcast, pressed some hard questions concerning

> Are certain sects of the younger generation looking to find victim status to have validation from society and on social media?
> Is media influencing this or is this helping people wake up to their true identity?
> Are we living in an increasingly transphobic world?

> How did I move away from the fear of what other people think about me, or living my life in proxy to what I want people to think about me?
> How do I take action and pursue my ambitions or beliefs without the anxiety of failure and need for approval?
> How to not feel like a misfit when moving to a new country.

> Are we all destined for greatness? What does it mean to be great?
> Is our fate / destiny already written? And what role does free will play?
> What impact are wokeism ideologies having on the younger generation?

> How do we identify divine moments in our life and take action on them?

Muslims, Christians, Jews, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez all agree--It's the end of the world. [E212]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 05 Apr 2021 01:00:00 +0000

The push to tax, and place trade restrictions on oil, coal, and trade of gas/fracking is geopolitical warfare designed to weaken a nations ability to defend itself in war. Resources and logistics are what win and lose wars…

And this is all being played out in the seemingly boring business of pipelines to set up, and defend, nations for the global end game . . .

What is most wild is all three of the monotheistic faiths all support this with the prophetic writings . . . and some how the religion of environmentalism.

Strange days we are living in...

Wokeness: New Weapon of Imperialism [E210]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 29 Mar 2021 01:00:00 +0000

The two mass shootings in America over the last week, and the media's response, exemplifies the anti white narrative that is being push globally.

Embedded in the anti white narrative is a trojan horse to stagnate societies growth as it shifts developmental strategy away from meritocracy and toward identity politics, away from competition and development based on skill, and equity based on ensuring an over equal if not over representation of special "victim groups" sending the signal to a young generations: you are affirmed and qualified based on the color of your skin, not your character, work ethic, or intelligence.

It is War: Liberty vs. Social Order clash as anti-lockdown protests sweep through Europe. [E209]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 22 Mar 2021 01:00:00 +0000

The debate and now growing global conflict between what we believe about personal liberties vs social order is increasingly apparent as nations push for vaccination and further lockdowns.

This weekend Europe experienced a series of demonstration protesting lockdowns and the removal of freedom to protest due to Covid-19 risk. Mean while in Miami beach Spring breakers throw off the shackles of lock downs and party hard causing Miami to issue an 8pm curfew.

I’m guessing there are TWO reaction on hearing this news—“They are horrible people killing everyone!” or “ They are Heros!”

Also this past week in Euro the AstraZeneca vaccine distribution was halted as may young people developed blood clots, some losing their lives.

And, we are taking on risk from the Vaccine—the have been approved for emergency usage, but they did not go through years of animal testing like others have—there is skepticism, there is distrust, and what is amplifying the distrust—people feeling like it is being FORCED on them.

Which leads us to the topic at hand:

Liberty vs safety
Individual vs the Whole

Should there be mandatory lockdowns and forced Vaccination?

Should the media and big tech push more their fact checking tags and information?

OR
Should there be personal freedom knowing that with it we could be putting others at risk?

John Stuart Mill, In On Liberty, argued that "the only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others."

But what happens when the whole is causing harm against individuals who the community conjecture could cause harm? Isn't it then one tribe vs. another, and who ever wields the power wins?

James Madison said: "If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: You must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place, oblige it to control itself."

45 reasons Dr. Seuss should be canceled. [E208]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 15 Mar 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Dr Seuss is getting "canceled".

Okay that is a little bit of a mis-portrayal. Six of his 60+ titles are no longer being printed or allowed to be licensed by the publisher. So he isn't fully being canceled. But there is a greater narrative at play worth examining.

First there is a list of 45 reasons Seuss should be canceled. In fact this list has been around a while and first published in the “Naked Communist” by Cleon Skousen, in March 1961 and was presented to US Congress in 1963 when a list of Current Communist Goals was presented to the US congress.

What is this list? Oh, nothing but a simple strategy to destroy family values, capitalism, democracy, and freedom as we know it . . . and sadly Dr. Seuss was just next in line for his day of reckoning.

I understand this is a highly contested issue as it touches on racism, anti racism, left v right, and the rabid cancel culture.

Some of you will think I conceded too many points to the left, and other I'm sure will think I've missed the tree for the forest (or the forest for the tree).

But one thing I know for certain . . . well . . . you'll have to listen to the episode to find out what that is.

Path to greatness: sacrifice, character and values with Yousef AlQanai [E207]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 08 Mar 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Yousef AlQanai, a Kuwaiti ultra marathon runner and writer and business owner shares about the sacrifice, character, and values as foundational aspect of greatness.

More importantly, Yousef identifies that believe in God is foundational to having purpose. Without God there life is without purpose and meaning. This leads to making the world and morals in our own image--that is molding the world based on our own experience and morality to suit our own best interests.

This inevitable leads to the the destruction of life and society and we saw clearly displayed in the 20th century with the horrors of Nazi Germany and Communist nations.

2050: Who Designs the Future? [E206]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 01 Mar 2021 02:00:00 +0000

Two startling facts: What you believe about the world at 13, you will likely die believing—and what is shaping your view of the world isn’t what you think…

What are the CORE influences that shape what you belief and how you move through the world?

According the Barna Group (a research center in America) here is the list:

Media
Media
Media
Media
Media
Gov.
Family

(I exaggerate, watch the episode for the REAL list). This is measured by time spend and impact. Mileage may vary from culture to culture... but what isn’t changing between cultures—the amount of time you spend on screens.

By the time a child is 14 they will have consumed on average 18,000 hours of media exposure – the equivalent of 6.2 years of 8-hour days of media saturation. Social media, YouTube, and TV is shaping culture MORE than religion or government or family.

What about the rest of the world, maybe culture is different and family and religion or government is still impacting youth more.

Maybe—I would argue probably more than in America or Europe but Asia is a few decades behind USA and USA a couple decades behind Europe as far as the decline of influence organized systems like religion or government has on a society. What we measure TODAY in culture is an indicator of what was happening 25-30 years ago in culture.

Sure, there is still a huge influence in culture from religion and gov in the MENA. However, it has drastically changed in the last 20 years. AND, we have yet to see what culture will be like in 2050 once the 8-13 year olds are 38-43.

We tackle the following questions:

So what media is shaping culture--what does that mean?
Okay sure values are changing, but isn't that a good thing?
What is now acceptable in American Culture?

What is the future impact of that cultural change?
Where will Asia be in 2050?

Robert Henderson from Episode #193 weighs in on this topic with a comment on the affect broken families have on culture.

Today's quote comes from Edwin Paxton Hood was . . . was born in Half-moon Street, London, Oct. 24, 1820. He was self-educated. Poet, Author, Independent Minister, biographer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_Paxton_Hood

“Be as careful of the books you read, as of the company you keep; for your habits and character will be as much influenced by the former as the latter.”

Myanmar "Coup" - Why should you care? Rather, why do world superpowers care? [E204]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 01:00:00 +0000

Well—I’m doubtful anyone (who is of true positions of political power) truly cares about “democracy” for small nation of Myanmar with the 53 million. All it takes is glancing at a map to see the geographical significance. It is one of China path to the India Ocean and the AND is crucial for China-Myanmar Economic Corridor (CMEC) where there is two oil and gas pipelines which run parallel to that project China is working to secure global trade route—which secures global influence, power, and ultimately dominance. In the past 4 years an alliance has been forming the in Asia to stand against and resist China’s global dominance which has been called the QUAD. The Quad is an alliance between China and the US, India and Australia.

In this episode we cover

Basis 101 players in the coup and who do they “side with” (Hint not clear "good guy bad guy" here)
Why does the global elite care about who is in power in Myanmar?
Facebook, the demi-god of all truth and speech, has also stepped in to attempt to sway the outcome? (& what does that mean for the other 6.99 billion people in the world)

Pro-Human or Anti-Human: A simple framework to evaluate the source and implication of ideas. [E202]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 08 Feb 2021 01:00:00 +0000

We have been discussing how in nearly EVERY system of belief and thought there is a belief In a battle in the Spiritual realm for the souls of mankind…

We see pop culture from Stranger Things, Star Wars, Marvel, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter . . . But how can you and I discern if the ideas we are embracing and letting in ideas that FEEL good but DO bad? That is snares and traps meant to entangle us, OR on the onset FEEL bad . . . but result in Good. Good for our selves and good for those around us?

In this episode we lay a quick and fast framework that you can use to identify if a worldview, system of thought, or idea come for a good source, or evil source--positive results or negative results.

It is simple--is playing out of the idea PRO human or ANTI human.

Here is the catch--most ideas that position themselves as pro human are ANTI human. And most idea in modern culture that are perceived aa “anti human” are actually pro-human.

We cover a few ANTI-human ideology that frame themselves as being pro human, such as:

Humanism
Environmentalism
Eugenics,
Woke-Anti-Racist ideology
Abortion

Putin vs. Navalny and the geopolitics of the Russia Protests [E201]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 04 Feb 2021 01:00:00 +0000

Russia has been headlining the past week with massive unrest, riots, the arrest of thousands due to the arrest of Navalny.

Everyone is picking sides . . . but the story is far more complex that it would seem. It isn't a clear "good vs evil" story. It is more of a, "what came first the chicken or the egg?"

Tim Kirby, independent journalist, returns to the show and shares what is happening on the ground across Russia and complexities of the situation.

We cover:

- We are seeing across news media global the riots and protests happening across Russia because of Alexei Navalny imprisonment. Who is Alexei Navalny?
- Reports are saying he was arrested upon arrival to Russia from Germany after recovering from POISONING by nerve agent? (Are these allegations true? Putin?)
- What is the crime/reason Russia is claiming he was arrested for?
- In response people have taken to the streets
- Not merely police arresting people but there is civilian vs civilian violence?
- Some people say this will lead to the end of Putin’s reign, other thinks that it will dissolve and fade—not changing the geopolitical lands scape—but, maybe not.
- In the past year with COVID globally we have seen unprecedented rioting across the western world that traditionally is calm—what is happening in Russia also part of a greater global geopolitical shift?

So you wanna change the world huh kid? Know this first . . . [E200]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 01 Feb 2021 01:00:00 +0000

Welcome to the 200th Episode of the show . . . AAAANd we are still talking about the SAME thing. How do we understand the world rightly so we can OWN OUR FUTURES.

We began with show with a premise 2 ½ years and 200 episodes ago that we all are change makers and that if only we could have the boldness and courage to overcome our fears we could boldly go out into the world and make an impact for the better. To “Change the world” to shape and own the future that our grandchildren will grow up in.

And—in many ways that is true—the micro transactions that we make everyday (from how we talk to people, to where we spend our time, to the jobs and products we make and material we consume) does make up the fabric of culture and society that will be transmitted to our children and the world around us to varying degrees.

But—what happens when we find ourselves in position to actually change the world but we have never developed ourselves to understand the world. To understand how to view the world and the vast systems that have been build over thousands of years of history?

If we are going to change the world for the better--we must have a healthy world view and frame work by which we can know the world.

Tim Kirby - Vaccine Passports could mean the fracturing of Globalization [E194]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 11 Jan 2021 05:30:00 +0000

Some people think vaccine passports will open up global travel again--we may be in for an unpleasant surprise.

Tim Kirby, independent journalist, TV and Radio media host, American turned Russian, from Strategic-Culture.org shares on just how and why this could happen.

Due to the geopolitical nature of the covid vaccine race and the rhetoric already being deployed "West vs East" we could see Vaccine passports resulting in your inability to travel because your vaccine doesn't qualify for the nation or region you wish to travel--resulting in greater frictions and restrictions on travel--not less.

Total Hypocrisy - Jan 6th DC Riot [E192]

Lucas Skrobot — Sat, 09 Jan 2021 17:26:27 +0000

The hypocrisy is suffocating from all political parties currently in America. There are very few uniting voices of reason. Most voice are seeking to divide and further their own political agenda.

I'm sure many will find my opinion divisive as well--but if we can look across the aisle and see that both side are just as guilty, that both sides are just as human and broken and fallen...

Then maybe there would be a possibility to mourn how we have fallen as a society and return to a sound moral fabric to restore dignity to the state of our nation.

Do Christians celebrate a pagan holiday? If so . . . WHY? [E189]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 21 Dec 2020 00:30:00 +0000

Merry Christmas . . . I've heard the argument that Christians are wrong to celebrate Christmas... and I can understand that view point given it's DARK pagan history (i.e. lawlessness, rape, human sacrifice) (Here is one of hundreds of links you can find on the origins of Christmas and Saturnalia. https://www.history.com/topics/ancient-rome/saturnalia

BUT Christians are observing a "religious holy day" that is "Required" for holiness or spirituality... in fact christianity "forbids is the celebration of religious seasons or holy days when they have been prescribed as religious duty and necessary for holiness or spirituality."

BUT--Christians can commemorate any day without judgement as long at it is done for the right reason (AKA it can't be for religious merit)

Here is another link https://bible.org/article/should-christians-celebrate-christmas (again one of hundreds google will provide you with.

With that said... I hope you have a very Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year.

We have talked at length this year about totalitarian societies--but we haven't talked much about how democracies can turn into totalitarian tyranny (and the antidote).

Be sure to stay tuned till the end with a great Weaver and Loom segment.

Just how deadly is it? And the cure to the REAL pandemic plaguing the globe. [E186]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 30 Nov 2020 22:52:44 +0000

Have we over estimated the deadliness of covid? So doctors seem to think so.

Is the cure worse than the disease?

The GREEN GROCER—the ultimate cure.

A recent article and study by John Hopkin's University demonstrates that COVID 19 has not attributed at any excessive deaths in America. In fact the death rate has not changed year over year as a trend.

Have we over reacted and is the "cure" for covid in fact worse the the affect of Covid it self?

The response to COVID across the globe has been one of fear, control, and totalitarian power grabs—allowing strip club, bars, and alcohol stores to remain open but closing churches, synagogues and mosques and school. Is it wise? Or are we living in fear?

Sophie Scholl, The White Rose, and standing for your beliefs [E185]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 23 Nov 2020 00:35:14 +0000

Today we answer a question from the audience, Sophie Scholl and the Order of the White Rose, and how us normal people can respond in the face of insult and criticism.

We discuss two heroes of World War II: Sophie Scholl and Maximilian Kolbe learning how to respond in line with your ideals in the face of wickedness, criticism and death.

You will face opposition by living a disciplined life by walking the road less travelled.

The Question is what will you do about it and how will you RESPOND to opposition and insults and criticism.

Is there validity?
1. Is it someone who loves and cares and is genuinely seeking to understand?
2. Is it someone who is ridiculing you and looking to destroy the good you are doing?

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.

Are you being criticized for wrong doing? Or right doing?

If people are attacking you and insulting you because you new life style is hurting others or turning you into a selfish jerk . . . well then maybe it is justified and you need to re-evaluate wether it is working.

If you are being criticized because you are doing good, being kinder, more generous, living healthier, telling the truth, not participating in the toxic and or illegal behavior of your old friend group…. Then rejoice—because it means you are on the right track.

(This is where you need to be brutally honest with yourself and open you ears to mentor around you who can speak into your life with brutal honesty)

Return Evil with Good.

Bless those who curse, be patient with those who take advantage, respond gently when evil things are said about us. When slandered, we answer with kind words.

Freedom of Speech or Hate Speech? [E184]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 16 Nov 2020 22:48:26 +0000

This past week, on November 10th 2020, Norway introduced a new law that "outlawed hate speech against transgender and bisexual people" even if that speech occurred in the privacy of your own home with up to a year in prison (three years for public hate speech).

Is that an overstep? Or should speech be controlled?

It begs the question about what does it mean, and where does this path of action lead . . . most importantly “What exactly is hate speech” AND does it actually stop “Free Speech?” Or should we have "hate speech laws" that protect privileged people groups?

Coming out of the (intellectual) closet [E183]

Lucas Skrobot — Wed, 11 Nov 2020 02:48:00 +0000

I recently got called out for being "deceptive" and too ambiguous on the show. I thought that some of the criticisms were fair and understandable as to why and how I've come across that way.

This is a little "check-in" episode where we visit where this show has come from how it is evolved, and where we are going blatant with transparency as to the intent and desired purpose of this show.

I hope you like it--and if you DON"T then shoot me a message and I'd love to hear why you disagree with the purpose or direction of the show. I love hearing your feedback.

How to be certain of Truth, and what it produces inside you [E181]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 26 Oct 2020 00:30:00 +0000

Truth--it is a trigger word these says in the polarized globalized liberal landscape. Most people live in such uncertainty that they will only claim that "truth is relative" and "there is no absolutely truth", which, ironically, is a self negating statement proving there is absolutely truth.

But there are Truths that I AM very certain of. Admittedly, there are many gray areas of life--but there is TRUTH. And Truth that we can be certain of.

How can I say that with such confidence? Because Truth has been revealed to us, AND Truth can be tested.

In this episode I break down the FRUIT and EVIDENCE of truth, how you can TEST truth, and how you too can become not only certain about Truth but can live a life of total freedom--the real freedom you have been searching for.

I'll give you a hint--TRUTH sets you free. Free from depression, anxiety, self hatred, envy, criticism, fear, lust, hate, anger, and doubt. Find truth and you'll find true freedom.

Until next time… Be a purpose seeker, truth lover, and own your future.

1950 vs 2020 and what went wrong [E174]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 28 Sep 2020 00:30:00 +0000

Probably NO ONE would trade living in 2020 for living back in the 1950 without internet, cell phones, AC, supermarkets, advancement in modern medicine (myself included) – but are we wrong?

Back in the 1950

super glue,
power steering,
Video tape recorder,
first music synth
transistor radio.
Teflon pan
computer modem
Barbie

2020 life span is 78.93 vs 68.14 in 1950

There has FOR sure been some HUGE steps in quality of life.

YET There are some STARK differences that might make us think twice about saying “life is better now”

Michael Snyder writes in the Economic Collapse Blog about the differences between America 1950 vs. America 2020.

The last startling difference is the suicide rates.

In this episode we explore what went so wrong over the past 70 years that has led to the disintegration of the moral fabric of America society and what you and I can to do preserve the integrity of our family, society, and nations.

The world’s best poker player aren’t GREAT because they are able to make “BIG DECISIONS” in a moment of pressure—in fact quite the opposite.

The greatest poker players rarely make big risky decision they learn to make SMALL informed and calculated bets over tens of thousands of hands.

Disappointment, failure, and a pathway towards true lasting success [E171]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 07 Sep 2020 00:30:00 +0000

What happens when you work hard and give your all and fail. The disappointment is real.

There are two sources for these "failures":

1) Other people didn't want what ever it was, or an uncontrollable circumstance happened, regardless wasn't your fault. Rejection can hurt.

2) You didn't perform well enough. Ouch.

I'm not sure which is worse--but good news is there is a solution.

A solution that leaves you satisfied. Where as worldly ambition leaves you empty and wanting more.

Redefine success and failure today.

Itamae, self mastery, and becoming a "change maker" [E170]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 31 Aug 2020 00:30:00 +0000

Becoming an Itamae (a master Sushi Chef) is a long and difficult journey. But so is the path to fulfilling our destiny.

The path to finding and fulfilling our purpose isn't clear or straight forward. It is one filled with pit falls and difficulties--which can derail people for their entire live.

Listen as we learn how the path to becoming a Itamae is similar each of our life journeys to fulfill our destiny. Few people embark on the journey out of their comfort to pursue their purpose, destiny and calling . . . and even fewer people finish.

The path is narrow--few find it, and many turn back.

Bounds and Domains of the Spheres of Culture and Society (Part 6) [E165]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 13 Aug 2020 00:30:00 +0000

We finish up this three part answer from a question from the audience with discussing an important framework that enables us to understand and sort highly complex issues in culture and society.

We've have been building up to this frame work for some time now, and I'm excited for the chance to articulate this concept explicitly, which has been appearing implicitly in the thought processes of rational of the episodes since episode 1 of the podcast.

We discuss the seven different areas of culture (or spheres of society)

Religon
Family
Education
Economics (science/tech)
Art entertainment
Media
Government

And how when one sphere becomes corrupt, oversteps, or abdicates isn't responsibilities toxin codependent relationship in society form and disaster is just around the corner.

I dive deeper specifically with how the education system grew out of alignment through wrongful influence of the business sphere (killing analytical creative thought processes that need to be taught in schools) and by government intervention through providing student loans (resulting in skyrocketing university cost).

Until next time… Be a change maker, pursue truth, and own the future.

Was America Founded on Racism and Slavery? And the dangers of social interventionism (Part 5) [E164]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 10 Aug 2020 00:30:00 +0000

We continue to answer a question from a listener like you were we cover:

What was America REALLY founded on?
Jim Crow Laws
Brown vs. Board of Education
Neo-integrationism
Dunbar Highschool
Social interventionism
The Health Care System
Who started the KKK?
Who abolished Slavery?
When was slavery FIRST abolished in America?

This isn't my favorite topic--as US History isn't my wheel house. It isn't my favorite--and for sure there is currently a lot of controversy around this topic, but it is a necessary topic to address, particularly government role in society and that dangers of interventionism.

Society needs the freedom to self sort--even if we don't like the "results".

Systemic Oppression of Gender Pay Gap, Three levels of abstraction, and multi-variable analysis (Part 4) [E163]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 06 Aug 2020 00:30:00 +0000

In this episode we field a question from the audience from Episode 160 on Social Justice.

With that question we cover:

Are women systemically oppressed by the tyrannically patriarchy? Who REALLY makes more money--men or women?
Three Levels of Abstraction: object, experience and concept.
Importance on multi variable analysis.

In order for us to answer the BIG questions about systemic racism, or sexism, or what the government to do about difference "social issues". We first must develop a health and correct world view on how the difference spheres of society (religion, government, family, education etc) should function and work together.

We also must develop a level of analytical thinking that looks past the surface, uni-variable analysis of the issue as hand and understand why, with in free markets and free society, are certain decisions being made or why are certain groups seeming to get less or more of their "fair share of the pie".

Fear, Love, and Healthy Boundaries (Part 3) [E162]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 03 Aug 2020 00:30:00 +0000

Fear and Love are to core drivers to boundaries. Fear causing us to run from negative consequences and love driving us towards positive relationship and outcomes.

One without the other produces toxic relationships. Love or fear directed in the wrong manner produces unhealthy patterns and cycles.

Fear negative results drives us from wrong doing--but that must be coupled with love to do go towards others.

Through understanding some basic frameworks by which we can judge our boundaries and relationship--we are able to the see more clearly how larger system of society ought to function in a health manner.

We have to know WHO we are serving and WHO we are not.

What is our responsibility and what is NOT.

What can we expect from the other party—and what we CANNOT.

If we can not frame our personal worlds correctly we fall into codependent relationships (where we need others to need us) in order to find value and security.

This fosters FREEDOM. Freedom to know what we are pursing, purpose in pursing goals and serving others—WHILE having the independence to know are not responsible FOR other people—but we do and a responsibility TO other people.

Stay tuned for the next episode where we talk about the frame work and spheres and domains of societies and how they all are designed to function interdependently . . . and what happens one they overstep their domains.

Rights, Entitlements, and Toxic Boundaries (Part 2) [E161]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 30 Jul 2020 00:30:00 +0000

Rights, Entitlements . . . and boundaries? And how our conflation of these terms are creating a toxic environment.

Rights and Entitlements, strangely enough we are going to tie this into our interpersonal lives with boundaries and how most of the things I read about “boundaries” are really entitlements masquerading as rights.

What is the difference between Rights and Entitlements

Much of the same thing is happening. I see across the society and culture this self-help inner peace nonsense that masquerading as “boundaries” and “rights” that are really entitlement that will end up bankrupting your relationships.

We claim these “personal rights” as “healthy boundaries” which is really self preservation to keep us safe and protected—building walls to keep us comfortable. Why? because we have assumed “comfort” is a owned to us--but it isn't.

No one can make you feel anything… Often when we are believe we are victims and not powerful people we focus on our entitlement that isolates us causing us to seeks our own selfish desires. Building walls and then we expect people to give us emotional equity love and support when we haven’t nourished those relationships.

What is Social Justice? cough Injustice cough (Part 1) [E160]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 27 Jul 2020 00:30:00 +0000

Words matter. The meaning of our words matter. And understanding their meaning is critical to understanding our world and acting within it.

In this episode we discuss justice and how it contrasts with what has come to be referred to as "Social Justice".

We define the meaning of Justice, Mercy, Grace, and Judgement and "Social Justice" as defined by those who stand and march for "Social Justice".

Justice makes impartial judgements regardless of race, class, or gender. Social justice make partial judgements in favor of "disempowered minorities" based on race, class and gender.

Justice give each man what he is due. Social Justice redistributes what each man earns until "financial equality" is achieved.

Traditional Family: The Strongest Weapon and Last Defense Against Totalitarianism (Part 5) [E159]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 20 Jul 2020 00:30:00 +0000

The nuclear family is under attack maybe more than every before in history—Today we discuss why some are working to erode family values, and why we must defend it . . .

In this episode we talk about:

How to escape poverty
Role and strength of the Nuclear Family
Why Black Lives Matter as a movement is dangerous
Why we must discern truth NOT just push for "change"
Why Cults and socialism push to destroy traditional family
And most importantly why (if you care about your children and grandchildren) you must fight to preserve the values and morality with the family is build upon.
What Marx and Engle REALLY believed (according to what they wrote) AND why it is so deadly.

The fruit of Marxist ideals is death. We have witnessed the destruction of nations, murder of 100+ of millions of lives all in the name of progress unto and new man, new society, and equality.

And we have seen the fruit of healthy families building generational wealth through family godly morals and values--ideas free for anyone to implement and better their life today and thereby help their communities rise out of poverty and pain.

Escaping Poverty

China's Struggle Sessions, Communist Rise to Power and Blatant Lenin Marxism (#BLM) (Part 4) [E158]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 16 Jul 2020 00:30:00 +0000

During the Chinese Cultural Revolution Totalitarian control was carried forth by undermining traditional morality, the family unit and public displays of violence through struggle session to strike terror into the hearts of the people because if you could strike terror in the hearts of men and women—you could control society.

If you remember a couple episode back E156 we discussed six traits of totalitarian cults we discussed why these orgs break up the family and why they use public punishment, shame, justified violence, to control the massive through eliminating a safe haven to turn (family) and through creating terror through public killings that are irrational.

In 1840 China began to modernize from traditional Chinese. Over about a 80 year period of time there were multiple wars in China that led to China adopting a Communist State in 1921.

Communism adopted ideas from Darwin and social Darwinism—and believed the violent struggle was the only way forward to progress as a species.

In the 1920s in the USSR there were public show trial where people were falsely accused of baseless crimes and executed. Russia was looking for Comrades to take over the world. In China they had been suffering set backs, disappointment and lack of global recognition after WWI.

They turned to Communism and Lenin Marxism: promised utopia but adopted ideas of no private land ownership, violent revolution, and destruction of traditional values.

The CCP was enacted genocide against anyone within or outside of the party who displayed individuality or independent thought. You could not have your own opinion—just that of the party’s talking point.

In 1952 2.4 Million killed "anti-revolutionaries"
Some estimated 5 Million killed from the KTM party
And some 10 million killed in the Land Reforms.

Communism used LIES to justify violence, altered and conceal historical truth, and closed loops of logic and manipulation of justice:

Muder is not allowed—except if someone betrays the party
Honor your parents—except if they are "counter revolutionaries".

China Communist documents out lines the abolition of the family rooted in region (Daoism, Buddhism). So they started to destroy temple, kick out the monks and make them join secular society, destroy statues, burn scripture.

French Revolution, the Reign of Terror, and Rewriting History (Part 3) [E157]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 13 Jul 2020 00:30:00 +0000

French Revolution began 150 years of chaos, war, bloodshed, revolution…. Each movement being eaten by the next…

France in the 1789 had LOTS of problems: high tax on poor, Rich, oppression etc. CLEARLY in need of Revolution. America had just gone through their own revolution. But the ideal of these two revolutions were VERY different.

In America, the Puritan and Protestants came over in search from religious freedom. They adopted ideas of Milton on freedom of speech and the dangers of censorship.

They adopted believed in the premise that the INDIVIDUAL was the supreme expression of the state. And the state was in place to EMPOWER the individual.

John Adams’ Declaration of the Rights of the Inhabitants of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, ratified in 1780, provides the basic framework for American governing philosophy:

“All men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights; among which may be reckoned the right of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties; that of acquiring, possessing, and protecting property; in fine, that of seeking and obtaining their safety and happiness.”

Note: This put the power and responsibility into the hands of the individual. Liberty in the hand of the individual… the seeking and obtaining safety and happiness was the individual’s responsibility.

France’s 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man is an ode to the collective. “The principle of all sovereignty resides essentially in the nation. No body nor individual may exercise any authority which does not proceed directly from the nation,” it states. “Law is the expression of the general will.”

The guide of the French Revolution was not liberty—but “Equality”. Not individual freedom—but the government responsibility to level the playing field and give equity to all people.

The America Revolution the PEOPLE gave power to the government, in the French the GOV/collective give power to the people.

In the years following the American revolution we see peaceful governance.

In the years following the French Revolution we see the Reign of Terror with mass execution “for the common good” . . . they hunted down nobles and business owners and beheaded them without trials.

The premise was IF there was an inequality it was due to oppression—and oppression must be punished “To punish the oppressors of humanity is clemency; to forgive them is cruelty” Robespierre

EQUALITY was more important that LIBERTY.

Maximilien Robespierre was monumental in sparking the French revolution… and ironically he was also lead to the guillotine when the people decided he too had too much power and an oppressor.

That is the issue here—one of many in the post modern marxist ideologies… those who lead the revolution often meet the same fate and the fury of the movement for equality continues to eat those who bring leadership.

It is the ouroboros —the self eating snake. Self destructive never satisfying force of chaos and destruction.

The French Revolution was lead by ANTI religious. It was largely sparked by an Anti-Clerical movement—AKA secularism.

They created a new religion to replace the Roman Catholic Church (which was in desperate need for reform). But instead of reforming—the torn it down, killed 16000+ clergy and nobles, and set up the Cult of Reason. Doing away with God—Mandated religion.

(Note the difference—freedom of religion vs MANDATE religion. Individual freedom and liberty vs subject to the state to press for equality.)

So—is the fact that it was a revolution that makes this Totalitarian? By no means—America had a revolution around the same time but the ideas and results were very different.

The French revolution was Totalitarian in idealogy because the idea was absolutely control over the individual for the sake of “equality” and with that came state mandated religion—a very different idea from the America Revolution—Freedom of religion.

First came the “Cult of Reason” that supplanted the Catholic church (Supplanting one mandated religion with another)

Here is where is gets really crazy and we see the extreme censorship and control of media and the totality of Totalitarian even in their erasure and rewriting of history.

Post Modern Leftist revolutions seek to erase and rewrite history so the past can completely be forgotten so that there is NO OTHER option—no descending voice—no other way of thinking.

The “Cult of Reason” Did away with the Gregorian calendar and set up a NEW calander to erase christianity, religion, and the past.

(Tear everything down and start over mentality VS let us learn from the past and slowly improve upon the foundations)

What did they do?

First introduced in 1788 and adopted in Oct 1793 – did away with 7 day week, replaced with 10 days.

Three “Dedaces” instead of week. With the name of the months being “snow” Rain, Vintange, fruits, heat, harvest, seedtime.

Replace the names of the Greek Roman Gods with scientific names.

Replaced all the Christian Holiday with holidays around the State and Political events (Putting Science and Government as God)

Each of the 360 days in the year was named for a seed, tree, flower, fruit, animal, or tool, replacing the saints’-day names and Christian festivals.

If you remember from the previous episode on the traits of Totalitarian cult they want TOTAL control, total control of media, of thought, ideas, they re-write history and ideas so that their ideologies have no beginning middle or end.

Why? Because if there is a beginning that means there could be a NOTHER option of thinking. And another option outside of their control is the greatest danger.

This Calendar lasted until January 1, 1806 when Napoleon did away with the old new way, and reestablished the catholic church and the Gregorian calendar.

Liberalism accepts and is open to criticism to they can find, and accept what they are doing wrong in order to correct their mistakes (slowly line by line improving society) Totalitarianism and the ideas that drove the French Revolution were “Tear everything down and START OVER” Don’t accept criticism. Don’t allow another narrative. Control everything.

The result?

Some would argue that the French revolution didn’t end until the 1950s when France joined the EU. For 150 years France cycled through revolution and instability.

French Revolution (1789–1792)
French First Republic (1792–1799)
First Empire (1804–1814)
Bourbon restoration (1814–1830)
July Monarchy (1830–1848)
Second Republic (1848–1852)
Second Empire (1852–1870)
Third Republic (1870–1940), until 1914
Paris Commune (1871)
Royalist domination (1871–1879)
"Radicals" (1879–1914)

150 years of chaos, war, bloodshed, revolution…. Each movement being eaten by the next…

We must be awake and aware of the warning sign of marxist groups like Black Lives Matter . . . warning sign that could ultimately lead to your own destruction as the movement begins to eat itself.

Six Traits of Totalitarian Cults: Don't Drink the Kool Aid (Part 2) [E156]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 09 Jul 2020 00:30:00 +0000

There are six traits of totalitarian cults:

1) Control of the environment

2) A system of rewards and punishments

3) Creating a sense of powerlessness

4) Fear and dependency

5) Reforming the follower’s behavior and attitudes

6) Closed system of logic.

These were described by Margaret Singer’s Cults in Our Midst (1996).

In 1952, Asch wrote: ‘The greater man’s ignorance of the principles of his social surroundings, the more subject is he to their control; and the greater his knowledge of their operations and of their necessary consequences, the freer he can become with regard to them.’

Totalitarian States (cults, groups, or ideology) denies freewill, thought, and individuality (part 1) [E155]

Lucas Skrobot — Sun, 05 Jul 2020 00:30:00 +0000

In this episode, I break down some of my thoughts from a previous episode with Dr Egnor (E153).

If you see a group movement or state that denies the individual's though, variety of opinion, agency and replaces it with group identity, social constructionism, and uses fear based terror based tactics such as cancel culture, intimidation, isolation, and the deconstructing of the family unit you are likely to be dealing with a group with Totalitarian tendencies (if not be a full blow totalitarian movement).

How to process trauma through writing - Dr James Pennebaker (part 2 of 2) [E154]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 29 Jun 2020 00:30:00 +0000

How can we take responsibility for the pain in our lives and not pass that pain on?

Our words have the potential to release us from the perpetual pain of traumatic experiences.

In the second part of my conversation with Dr. James Pennebaker, we discuss healthy ways individuals can process traumatic experiences and the power of expressive writing.

Dr. Pennebaker is a social psychologist and currently holds the position of the Regents Centennial Professor of Liberal Arts at the University of Texas at Austin.

His work highlights the effects of natural language on the mental and physical health of people. In this conversation, we discuss his work Open Up by Writing it Down and the practical advice he offers to people processing pain.

Key takeaways:

Creating distance immediately following a traumatic experience is helpful—do not neglect this part of the process.
People who do not voice their emotions through spoken or written words often experience physical sickness at a higher rate.
Writing about your experience adds structure and objectivity to your thoughts.
If you change your behaviors and thoughts, your language will follow. Language is a reflection of what is happening inside of you.

Detecting lies and understanding personality through language - Dr James Pennebaker (part 1 of 2) [E153]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 29 Jun 2020 00:15:00 +0000

Did you know your usage of pronouns and prepositions might reveal parts of your personality that you’re not even aware of? Language is powerful, even the words you don’t even think about, like pronouns.

Our guest Dr. James Pennebaker is a social psychologist and currently holds the position of the Regents Centennial Professor of Liberal Arts at the University of Texas at Austin. He studies the ways emotional experiences, natural language, and physical and mental health all affect one another.

We discuss the language used by the President and former Presidents, analyses of the language used during coronavirus as an indicator of mental well-being, and findings presented in his most recent book, The Secret Life of Pronouns: What Our Words Say About Us. https://amzn.to/3dARYra

Find more conversations like this one at lucasskrobot.com or contact me through WhatsApp at +12029220220. Go out and own the future.

Key takeaways:

James Pennebaker’s work was born out of a need to base psychological on real-world behaviors.
Some parts of speech are processed in the brain differently than others. Knowing this, one can understand people better through the language they use.
When analyzing the language used by people during the coronavirus pandemic, Dr. Pennebaker found significant increases in anxious language and a decrease in language suggesting anger. This is beginning to reverse.

What to listen for:

01:44 How did you, as a social psychologist, decide to study people’s words?

6:33 Dr. Pennebaker discusses his findings of his language analyzing software, Linguistic Inquiry & Word Count (LIWC), which countered stereotypical perceptions about gender and language patterns.

10:19 How do we process various components of language differently in our brains?

20:00 Deceit is very difficult to detect, even for computers. Dr. Pennebaker explains why.

25:06 Pronoun usage provides insight into how a person, even the President of the United States, might be thinking.

31:58 Analysis of Trump and Obama’s tweets while in office

35:20 Pronoun usage can indicate states of mental health.

36:40 What are you seeing through language analyses happening during the COVID-19 pandemic?

43:08 What will the future look like after COVID-19?

Quotes:

“Early on I became a little bit appalled that so much of social psychology was based on questionnaires.

We didn’t look at what people were actually doing, we just asked them what they thought they were doing.” [02:55]

“It wasn’t that I was interested in language, but as a tool to understand people it turned out to be an unbelievably rich source of information” [10:02]

“What the hell is going on in our culture that tweets are a form of conversation?” [33:29]

Dr. Michael Egnor | Free Will and Totalitarian Ideologies (Part 2 of 2) [E152]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 22 Jun 2020 00:30:00 +0000

In part two of my discussion with Dr. Michael R. Egnor, we continue our discussion about neurophilosophy.

In this episode, Dr. Egnor brings attention to the importance of embracing the free will of humanity.

Dr. Egnor is an award-winning brain surgeon and a research professor of Neurosurgery and Pediatrics at the State University of New York.

You can find additional articles written by Dr. Egnor at discovery.org.

Key takeaways:

Logical reasoning alongside empirical evidence of physics concludes humans have free will.
Experiments in neuroscience also affirm the existence of a free will.
Denying free will has societal consequences; for instance, totalitarian states are founded in the denial of free will.

References:

What to listen for:

1:30 Humans are the only thing in creation that bridges the material and immaterial.
3:31 How do we know that we have a free will? Reasons of logic and physics point to free will.
7:07 Physicists in the 1970s asked questions about free will and tested the idea through experiments which concluded that observation itself is a form of creation in the universe.
11:34 Neuroscience asked similar questions. Wilder Penfield and Benjamin Libet pioneered the question of free will in the department of neuroscience.
22:11 What are the consequences of believing things like determinism or materialism?
32:55 Individuals who even think of free will are lethal to a totalitarian state. Personal agency is the antidote to totalitarianism.
39:08 How should we analyze the governmental response to COVID-19 through a free-will affirming lens?
44:36 Dr. Egnor’s final takeaway for the listeners.
48:40 Concluding comments

Quotes:

“Free will is essential to human dignity.” 21:45

“The denial of free will is the cornerstone of totalitarian systems.” 31:00

Dr. Michael Egnor | Neurosurgery, Materialism vs Dualism, and Intention (Part 1 of 2) [E151]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 22 Jun 2020 00:15:00 +0000

Dr. Michael R. Egnor discusses the intersection of philosophy and neuroscience in today’s episode.

He is a research professor of Neurosurgery and Pediatrics at the State University of New York.

As an award-winning brain surgeon, Dr. Egnor brings a unique perspective to our discussion about the difference between the mind and the brain.

You can find additional articles written by Dr. Egnor at discovery.org.

Key takeaways:

While operating on brains becomes easier with time, the interpersonal and emotional challenges of the job persist throughout the years.
Modern materialism takes materialism to the extreme and suggests that we’re “just the machine.”
The mind transcends the material.
Aristotle suggested that one comes to know things by knowing both their form and matter.
Humans are both body, soul, and spirit.

What to listen for:

01:45 Dr. Egnor describes what it is like to operate on a person’s brain. While he likens the operation to typing or playing the piano, he acknowledges the emotional and interpersonal challenges in his job.
09:01 Dr. Egnor explains his dualistic understanding of the mind vs. the brain.
16:29 The mind differs from the brain because it has the property of intentionality.
22:08 Dr. Egnor provides a thought experiment to explain that minds must transcend materials—the zombie problem.
24:02 How do human minds differ from other species?
28:41 Dr. Egnor explains the Aristotelian-Thomistic understanding of the mind.

Reference materials:

Quotes:

“My wife jokes with me that meeting me is always the worst part of a person’s life.” 03:45

“The mind is the antithesis of computation.” 16:29

“We are a soul and body as one unit. The soul has powers of intellect and will. Though they are involved with the body, they do not come from the body.” 38:30

“Human beings have a spirit in the sense that there are powers of the human mind that do not come from matter.” 44:20

Steve Weigel | A non-politically correct personal account of protests in Minneapolis [E147]

Lucas Skrobot — Wed, 03 Jun 2020 19:30:13 +0000

Disclaimer: We are two individuals processing, examining, and seeking to understand the complex aftermath of the brutal killing of George Floyd.

We both are working through these ideas out loud with one another. This is what we need to do. Dialogue with one another even if your ideology sits outside of one political identity group. (Especially if your ideology sits outside main stream arguments).

We are blessed to live in a country where we have freedom of speech, thought, and agency.

Both of us in this episode confess that we might not agree or belief something we said in this conversation next week. And that is a good thing. We must set dogmatism to the side...and have open honest conversation with out leveling personal attacks or character assumptions, HOWEVER . . . we must love and seek out the truth.

We all must have the freedom to disagree with ideas--and then present rational arguments for or against, not name calling.

So, please--if you want to message me, or Steve, disagreeing about something, or asking clarification about something, please do.

We are not experts. We are individuals seeking to understand all sides, love all people, and speak truth.

And we are open changing our ideas, and seeing the world in a truer light.

Love and Truth,

Lucas Skrobot

Dr. Michael Keas - Have Aliens Visited Earth? (Part 1 of 2) [E145]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 01 Jun 2020 00:10:00 +0000

Doctor Michael Keas is a Ph.D. holder in the history of science from the University of Oklahoma. He is an adjunct professor of History and Philosophy of Science at Biola University. He is also a Senior Fellow of the Discovery Institute. Doctor Michael Keas experienced some of the last historic moments behind the Berlin Wall as a bright scholar in East German. He also co-authors the high school and college science curriculum. He is also the author of the book titled Unbelievable: 7 Myths about the History of Science and Religion.

Introduction One of the mysteries on earth that has remained unsolved is whether supernatural creatures appeared on this planet as a savior of humanity to stop nuclear warfare and bring peace among all religions, science, and others. Another fascinating fact is that humans cannot distinguish an actual supernatural being and alien natural being. In this podcast, Doctor Michael Keas helped shed more light on these topics.

In this episode, we talked about:

Are Extra-Terrestrial REAL? Have Aliens already made contact with earth?
If there is life on other planets what is the likelihood of contact with humans?
Why can't religion and science coexist in harmony in this modern age?
How to tests conspiracy theories.
Why textbooks are being rewritten.
What the Extra-Terrestrial enlightenment will say about occult activities and UFOs abductions.
Is Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence indistinguishable from God?
Why 35% of Americans aged 18-29 have "no religion" but are "spiritual."

Lucas Skrobot — Sun, 10 May 2020 09:22:16 +0000

Own the Future has taken on a NEW name--The Lucas Skrobot Show. Listen to learn WHY, and what to expect these new changes to bring.

I answers questions like . . .

What caused you to change the name?
Is "Own the Future" totally going away?
What is happening to "Weaver and Loom"
Will you still be doing interviews?
How often will you be releasing episodes?
What is the new format of the show?
Is the heart of the content changing?

I share all this and MORE (like who is joining the team as a producer!)

We are excited for this new format of the show. It has taken 138 episodes or so to get here. What we did in the past served it's purpose--but now it is time to let the past be the past and to step into the new.

Thank you for being a dedicated listener. Without you--we would not be here.

I would love to hear from you--WhatsApp me at +1-202-922-0220 Here you can ask question about anything that happened on the show. I look forward to hearing from you.

Tolerance is criticizing ideologies while loving the person | Weaver & Loom [E138]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 04 May 2020 00:30:00 +0000

I've been thinking a lot about "tolerance" lately--and what it truly means to be tolerance.

Tolerance is the freedom to criticize all ideas, ideologies, religions, system etc, WHILE loving those who hold ideals and values that are different than ours.

In Episode 135 Dahlia Rahaimy and I talk about power of disagreement and how you can maintain relationships and love for one another without compromising on your values.

This conversation got me thinking about "tolerance" and how we need the capacity to think critically about the implications of ideas while engaging in vulnerable relationship with those we hold disagreements with.

As I pondered tolerance I thought of my conversation with Brandon Polk back in E022 where he also gives a similar definition of tolerance, the importances to being free to dissect ideas, with the emphasis on not judging the individual (rather judging ideas) and engaging in relationship with people who are not like us.

Listen to this important mash up that if applied will open many doors for you to understand the world more clearly while freeing to think for yourself without falling into tribalism or identity politics or ostracizing the "other".

Make better work by becoming intolerant | Weaver & Loom [E127]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 24 Feb 2020 20:01:54 +0000

On this episode of Weaver and Loom we talk about doing better work by saying no to tolerance.

That is right--intolerance is the name of the game, believe it or not it will lead to better work and a higher level of excellence.

Also--a short confession and case and point of the episode. This was the first episode I've recorded LIVE on instagram and youtube.

It for sure wasn't the level of excellence I'm aiming for, but instead of waiting till I was "READY" I launched. Launched, made some mistakes, and gained some valuable insight of what I don't want to do next time, and how to continue to improve.

Through being INTOLERANT to "good enough" work, and not accepting this as the status quo--this show will be able to continue to grow into what it was designed to be.

Why do Christians celebrate a pagan holiday? (A Christmas Special) [E119]

I've heard the argument that Christians are wrong to celebrate Christmas... and I can understand that view point given it's DARK pagan history (i.e. lawlessness, rape, human sacrifice) (Here is one of hundreds of links you can find on the origins of Christmas and Saturnalia. https://www.history.com/topics/ancient-rome/saturnalia

BUT--Christians can commemorate any day without judgement as long at it is done for the right reason (AKA it can't be for religious merit)

When "showing up" isn't enough | Weaver & Loom [E113]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 31 Oct 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Amateurs show up when they feel like it, Professionals show up when they don't . . . but it isn't enough to just "show up".

Show up day in and day out and putting in the reps like a pro--doesn't make us grow. And it won't cause us to reach our goals.

But, when we take time to reflect, and be intentional with our reps and with our training--that is what causes us to grow.

Have you taken time to pause and reflect? Or are you just pumping out mindless reps?

The most controversial issue that I won't back down on, with guest host Abdullah Al Maawali | Own the Future [E111] (Part 3 of 3)

This is an intense episode where Abdullah ask me pressing questions about my stance on abortion.

Science has proven that life begins a conception. The argument is that simple. But . . . if you aren't convinced then go listen to the episode.

**Correction** Killing a bald eagle's egg is maximum fine of $5,000 or one year imprisonment with $10,000 or not more than two years in prison for a second conviction. Felony convictions carry a maximum fine of $250,000 or two years of imprisonment. The fine doubles for an organization.

As we continue to talk about being change makers, hit an important aspect of doing great work--that is our ability to work in the shadows, our ability to serve and impact our clients or customers even when we aren't getting credit, even when we aren't being seen.

This is what it means to have the courage to become an absolutely nobody.

If you want to accomplish the greatness upon your life you will need the courage to endure season of obscurity. Seasons of working with out the lime light.

Here on the Own the Future we've talked about what it means to be an absolute nobody (back in episode 45 with the story of Franny from J.D. Salinger's novella titled FRANNY AND ZOOEY) Franny wanted to the courage to become an absolute nobody.

We also talked--back in Episode 59, about how the most decorated soldiers don't have names--they are nobodies who gave their lives for others.

Being absolute nobody is an important variable of walking out becoming change makers.

But being an absolute nobody sounds quite depressing and self deprecating.

Over the next nine episodes we will explore what it means to be a change maker, greatness, being absolute nobodies, our greatest enemies to success, and the greatest most influential person who is shaping culture today (and it isn't who you think it is).

Taking responsibility is your responsibility | Weaver & Loom [E092]

It is easy to hide in a group, or a system, and pass the buck to someone else, to give excuses why YOU didn't take action to help others--or fight for your own dreams.

There is always an excuse. And as we float through life in our "groups" we find the our responsibility has been diffused and group think takes over.

Diffusion of responsibility happens because individual group members believe they are not responsible to act, that someone else has acted already, or that somebody will act in the future.

To see massive change, make small adjustments | Weaver & Loom [E091]

In all the years of the Tour-de-France, France had never won their nation’s own competition. That is, not until 2010, when the French cycling team hired a man named Dave Brailsford to coach them.

Cue the Rocky soundtrack over a montage of Brailsford yelling and encouraging his team to train harder, to give it 110 percent. I can imagine them working out in the pouring rain, on the verge of giving up, when by some supernatural force, they find one last ounce of energy to push through to the end.

Wrong. Insert sound of screeching soundtrack and tangling film here.

Instead, he suggested that they look at every component of bike racing and try to improve it by one percent. That’s it, a boring one percent.

You need to do less work to reach your goals | Weaver & Loom [E090]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 30 Sep 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Vilfredo Pareto was a leading economist, sociologist, and engineer in the 1800s. He is best known for the Pareto Principle, which is now known as the 80/20 Rule.[i]

In short, the Pareto Principle explains the unequal distribution of wealth, income, land ownership, and production.

Pareto stumbled upon this principle by observing how eighty percent of the land in France was owned by twenty percent of the population[ii] and that eighty percent of his peas were produced by twenty percent of his pea plants.

What can you cut out of your life--and what can you double down on to see exponential gains and growth to reach your goals?

[i] Many books have been written about the 80/20 rule over the past decade and how we can apply it to daily living, business, economics, and so on. The Four-Hour Work Week by Tim Ferres and The 80/20 Principle by Richard Koch are two of the best-known books on the topic.

How your (lack of) sleep is killing your productivity | Weaver & Loom [E089]

Lucas Skrobot — Sun, 29 Sep 2019 00:30:00 +0000

In my early twenties, I looked at leaders around me who, so I thought, only needed four to six hours of sleep per night. I envied them, so I decided to give it a try.

After a week of getting only six hours of sleep a night, I wound up sick, and it took a week or two before I returned to my normal level of productivity. But that was only the beginning of my experimentations with sleep.

As a result of my failures, I resented myself, and my body, for needing up to nine hours of sleep to feel rested and to function properly.

I fought my “weakness” with all my strength. I dreamed of how amazing it would be to need only six hours of sleep.

I fantasized about how much more I could accomplish if only my body would cooperate.

I was an ignorant fool.

Here is the study mentioned in the episode:

Van Dongen HP, Mullington JM, Dinges DF. “The cumulative cost of additional wakefulness: dose-response effects on neurobehavioral functions and sleep physiology from chronic sleep restriction and total sleep deprivation.” http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12683469

20 mile march | Weaver & Loom [E088]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 26 Sep 2019 00:30:00 +0000

It was the summer of 1910. Virtually the entire world had been explored, and in the minds of many, only one frontier remained—the South Pole. Thousands of miles away from civilization, Antarctica remained one of the last places untouched by the modern world.

Robert Scott from England and Roald Amundsen from Norway led two separate expeditions, racing each other to reach the bottom of the world for land and country. Both men had very different styles of leadership.

One last major difference that set Scott and Amundsen apart was their daily schedule. Scott and his men travelled as much each day as the weather and their strength allowed. When the weather permitted it, some days they trekked for up to nine hours straight. During inclement weather, they didn’t leave their tents at all.

Amundsen, on the other hand, decided they would travel one-quarter of a degree of latitude every day—which is fifteen nautical miles or around twenty miles a day. Hiking twenty miles a day across Antarctica is hard but realistic. Through blizzards or sunshine, they marched twenty miles each day, no more and no less. On average, they spent five to six hours on their feet each day and up to sixteen hours resting in their tents.

Listen to the episode to discover who won this epic race, and the price the loser paid...

It makes us feel good, warm and fuzzy. But sharing your dreams with others is a baaad idea.

There are one of FOUR things that will happen when you share what you plan on doing, and only one of them is good. The other three will take you out.

Here are the four possibilities:

1) The think you are brilliant. You feel the praise and satisfaction and never build your dream.

2) They think you idea is dumb. You never build your dream.

3) The say nothing. You double guess yourself and never build your dream.

4) You will have to listen to the episode to discover the ONE kind of person you should share your dream with :)

Until next time…

Anchored, the discipline to stop drifting| Weaver & Loom [E084]

Lucas Skrobot — Sun, 22 Sep 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Six years ago, 2013, my whole life changed. My western culture was confronted and I set out on a process, a journey, to better understand my culture, the culture of the Middle East--and how to life a focused life that wasn't merely busy, but a life that allowed me to achieve the results that I wanted to see.

I began writing. And soon a collection of random thoughts developed into a theme. Begging the question, "How can I stop from drifting through life? How can I reach my goals without spinning my tires?"

I began writing as a manifesto to myself and now it has developed into an short actionable book that gives a frame work to view success and the world through.

Over the next 10 episodes I will be sharing stories and insights from the book, "Anchored, the Discipline to Stop Drifting" leading up to the release date of Oct 3rd 2019.

The Impossible is only possible by never giving up | Weaver & Loom [E083]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 19 Sep 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Those who succeed are those who never turn back.

Here is a funny story of a great explorer who DID turn back . . . okay the story isn't FACTUAL . . . but it is TRUE. In fact it is a story most people live out every day of their life.

And be sure to catch the two take aways at the end of the episode for this week on making the impossible possible.

Civil Rights were impossible . . . until one day it wasn't | Weaver & Loom [E082]

Lucas Skrobot — Wed, 18 Sep 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Rosa Parks, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, Fawziah al-Bakr, Annie Kenney and tens of thousands of other stood up (or sat down) for their rights.

In this episode we don't focus so much on the courage and sacrifice that so many have made throughout history to fight for and defend civil rights...

But we recount Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s words after his house was bombed.

So many people are standing up today demanding justice and entitlements for themselves. So many are complaining about how they didn't get a fair shake...

But our response cannot be to demand our own personal justice, or retribution--instead we must lay down our right and take up the plight of others, not in protest, but in action.

What would happen if instead of focusing how we got dealt a bad hand in life, we focused on serving others around us and giving someone else what we never received?

For hundreds of years mankind tried to break a four minute mile.

People tried everything to break the barrier... even had bulls chasing them.

Scientists said it would never be done. They said the human body couldn't survive due to lack of oxygen.

Sports experts said the conditions would have to be absolutely perfect.

Turns out that none of that was true...

When you are thrown back into your old environment if you aren't careful, it doesn't take long until you slip back into old habit.

Today we talk about how to inoculate yourself so that you will sustain your transformational experience and continue to take leaps forward in your transformational process.

If you want to grow, change your environment | Weaver & Loom [E070]

You are the sum average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. And if you want to grow, you might need to ditch some friends.

It is undisputed that the environment which surrounds you determines how you will or won't be able to grow.

Often, people spend decades working on themselves, going form self help book to self help book wondering why they can't seem to get any progress--but they neglect to change the environment around them.

It is like continuing to planting seeds in dry bed of rocks wondering why nothing ever grows . . . you must change the soil, the environment, to make it suitable for the growth.

You ain't fearless--you just sleepin' | Weaver and Loom [E067]

Lucas Skrobot — Wed, 28 Aug 2019 00:30:00 +0000

There are three laws of Thermodynamics:

The first law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system. (You were born with it in you)
The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of any isolated system always increases.
The third law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of a system approaches a constant value as the temperature approaches absolute zero.

You were born with "it" in you--and meant to release your art and your energy.

Your work will alway tend toward chaos--it is your job to organize and build systems day in and day out.

The entire universe (by the very laws of physic) is working against you.

So if you are "at peace", fearless, issueless, facing no resistance--it is because you have succumbed to the universe and fallen asleep to your destiny.

...but is a choice that should never come at the expense of sweeping pain, suffering, wounds, offenses, hurt, bitterness under the rug.

AKA--don't live in denial.

For you and I to be change-makers in the world, we must first become changed. That is--we need to become whole and healed individuals. Because you can't give someone something you don't have...

Before we pretend we are happy, or boast about how we are gonna build some great company or piece of art . . . let's clean house. Let's clean up our messes and forgive those who have left messes of our lives.

Responsibility over freedom | Weaver & Loom [E063]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 22 Aug 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Masses around the globe are pushing for personal freedom. Yet, and the masses step into greater levels of "freedom" it comes with the cost of losing sense of purpose, meaning, significance, and destiny.

The willful embrace of responsibility (for ourselves first, then those we are over, then those we relate to, and those we touch and then the world at large) leads us to to a deep sense of meaning and purpose in life. The willful taking on of the plight, suffering, and darkness in ourselves and others launches us into our destiny.

Like Sheikh Zayed, founder of the UAE, he could have chosen personal freedom, instead he went village to village, camp fire to camp fire paying tribes and families to send their children to school. He build a nation--but he didn't have you.

What is in front of YOU to do . . . that isn't required, but it is an invitation to give your best years for something other than yourself.

When members of any organization know that they will justly be guarded and protected, they are able to rest, relax and do their best work knowing that they are apart of a healthy organization that is seeking not merely what is best for the organization--but what is best for them as individuals.

Lucas Skrobot — Tue, 06 Aug 2019 00:30:00 +0000

If you want to build a cultural frame work. If you want to be a boundaried individual, family or business--you need to know your story, and create memorial to those defining stories so that you will always remember and never forget the path you are on.

Secure Sacred Space | Weaver & Loom [E048]

Lucas Skrobot — Thu, 01 Aug 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Sacred Spaces, or religion ceremonies, was the first of seven core function that would happen in the gates of ancient cities.

Sacred spaces to not merely mean "organized religion beliefs" but it is your worldview. Where you believe the world came from, and where it is going. What do you believe the macro narrative of mankind is--and therefore how do order our lives.

Knowing and understanding what are underlying beliefs are, and the guiding virtues which we therefore order our lives around is the most valuable thing you could EVER do in your life. Why? Because our, true, guiding virtue act as a compass by which we navigate every decision in life, from the largest to the smallest.

FYI . . . just because we "CLAIM" a guiding virtue in theory, in practice we might believe and live very contrary to what we claim is supreme.

Define and Defend your City | Weaver & Loom [E047]

Lucas Skrobot — Wed, 31 Jul 2019 00:30:00 +0000

Defining a culture of a nation, city, brand, family, or person is not random. There are specific areas that must be defined and defended to maintain the integrity of any individual or organizations of individuals.

Many people, or brands, have these defined already--but due to poor decision making while defining the constitution of their community they suffer as organization, or individuals.

But there is an order that can be found, establish, and maintained to live a healthy and enjoyable life.

In this episode, we introduce seven areas that must be structured and defended to maintain the integrity of an organization, or individual.

Facts, Stories and Truth - Lucas Skrobot [E030]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 06:18:53 +0000

In this episode we examine the trial of O. J. Simpson, specifically how as humans we respond and believe STORIES... not FACTS.

We would like to believe ourselves as RATIONAL beings that act according to knowledge, facts, truth.

But we are far from rational…

If we were rational no one would smoke, sit for long hours, or eat products containing MSG.

But we aren’t rational. We don’t follow the FACTS.

We arrange the facts to tell ourselves stories that we like. Stories that make up feel good…

Or . . . stories that align with the stories we have been told for generations regardless of the FACTS.

Don't help the most people. Help people the most.

In a world where every "like" is counted, and every possible metric metered, it can be ease for our thoughts to be skewed by the number game.

It can be easy to get caught up in popular opinion and pander to the crowd. Just because people THINK what you are doing is making an impact doesn't actually MEAN you are making an impact.

Are you in the Podcast Business? Or the Business of Podcasting? [E020]

Lucas Skrobot — Wed, 13 Feb 2019 12:47:22 +0000

Are you in the Podcast Business? Or the Business of Podcasting?

Recently I interviewed Khayra Bundakji from the mstdfr network and founder of the Azzbda podcast, on Own the Future podcast, and learned two things:

When two podcasters/interviewers sit down it will be a marathon of an episode.
You should quit the podcast business…

Not the encouraging advice you’d expect to hear in an email newsletter about podcasting.

Let me explain . . .

During the conversation with Khayra I asked how Azzbda podcast was going, download numbers etc. typical stuff . . .

Khayra graciously revealed they are producing one episode a month, and receive TEN THOUSAND listens each month.

I was stoked. “10k while only putting out one episode a month. Epic!” I exclaimed.

Khayra was not as enthused, “Yeah . . .” she said, “I mean I feel like we could have so much more.”

*cue the record scratching* Wait what?? Hold the phone.

Ten Thousand people show up a month and you’re bummed?!?

Little did I know my hypocritical judgment was about to become exposed…

For point of reference:

The MEDIAN download of an episode (not mean or average) is 173 download per episode.

For those of us who are foggy on our high school math, the median is middle number of the data set. Of the 660,000+ podcasts and hundreds of millions of episodes, 50% will have less than 173 download and 50% will have more than 173 downloads.

The MEAN (or average) of an episode is 2000 downloads per episode (after accounting for the top top podcasts and those waaay down at the bottom). [according to Rob Walsh with Libsyn, in a piece from 2016]. These stats may have changed in the last three years—but not by much.

Okay… back to Khayra. They have 10k per episode. Sure, it isn’t in the millions, or hundreds of thousand, BUT it is in the top 5% of all 660k+ podcasts in existence.

On the graph you can see how Azzbda, the blue triangle, is performing better than 95% of all podcast! That better than 627,000 of the 660,000+ podcast—globally.

From my perspective, as a relatively new podcaster still in the days of small beginnings, I would be OUT OF MY MIND to have 10k listeners per episode.

The truth, however, reveals I’m a hypocrite. Because I look and my above median downloads per-episode, and I’m discouraged.

If I am honest, I’d be discouraged if I was getting 10k, 100k, or a million downloads per episode.

Why? Because there is always more, there is always another level of success to achieve.

So . . . Am I even qualified to be writing this email to you? What might I say to benefit you in your journey?

As I pondered all this . . . I came to a point of revelation, a point of truth in the form of a question:

Why are you podcasting? Are you in the podcast business? OR . . . the business of podcasting?

Are you in the podcast business? Are you doing it for the numbers? The following? The masses? The “money”?

Hustling for another subscriber, the shout out, download . . . never stratified and always craving more?

Are you in the business of podcasting? Are you satisfied with the one? The individual you touched with your words?

What if you ONLY impact 173 lives. Would you continue? Would you continue to share your stories, truth, laughter, and tears with your world?

Is your message/story/perspective so important, so costly, so worth it you would show up even if only SEVENTEEN people listened?

As Kharya says, “Podcasting will save the world.” It happens one person at a time.

Kharya is in the business of podcasting. She believes in her work and her message. She would keep showing up even she only changed one life through her work.

It is easy to get caught-up and blinded with the numbers. That can happen with ten, or ten million followers. But, we MUST NOT miss the beauty of intimately impacting the ONE person listening. The ONE person caring about your work.

If you don’t believe your work is worth it if you only touch one life . . . then you should ask yourself if you are giving yourself to something you truly believe in? Or are you chasing an illusion of fame and significance?

If you find yourself in the podcast business, yearning for the attention of the world . . . quit.

Instead . . . Join the business of podcasting . . .

. . . the business of putting you work/yourself out there

. . . the business of taking the time to saying something meaningful

. . . but the business of seeing and saying something to the ONE.

. . . Because your work, your voice, your story is worth it—even if only one listens.

Never trust your friends. Always know your enemies. (A lesson from the Art of War) - Lucas Skrobot [E018]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 04 Feb 2019 12:27:24 +0000

We all have friends and enemies.

Those who fight for us, and further our journey--and those who oppose us and seek to destroy us.

Today we discover our true friends, and the real enemy.

As Sun Tzu wrote in the Art of War - “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

The enemy is lurking, seeking to destroy you... and it is closer to each one of us than we'd like to believe.

Khabib vs. Conor, Southern USA Culture of Honor, and Terrorism - Lucas Skrobot [E013]

Lucas Skrobot — Sun, 21 Oct 2018 20:27:37 +0000

UFC fight 229 Khabib Vs Conor. Conor taps out in the forth round. Khabib . . . after getting pulled off Connor hears an insult from Connor’s Team mate. Khabib Leaps over the fence and assaulting Conor’s teammate--a brawl between the two teams break out. And half the world says, “Conor and co. deserved it.”

Today we explore the cultural frame work and worldview explaining why Khabib assaulted Conor , and why some in the world (who on every other day of the week talk about love and peace) are defending & justifying the assault.

But this episode isn't just about fighting... it is about beliefs, worldview, and cultural underpinning that shape the way the we live.

There is a sea of people out there who promote peace, love, and tolerance--yet cheer on actions that promote fear and intimidation (like Khabib).

If you or I cheer Khabib for standing up for himself, through violence when, mocked--then we are cheering the ideology of an insult-aggression cycle that fuels violence in the Southern United States, and terrorism alike.

Listen to find out if your view this situation carries the seeds of love and peace, or seeds of hate and violence.

Take Control of Your Life, Game Theory & Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - Lucas Skrobot [E008]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 27 Aug 2018 21:06:22 +0000

What does your worldview, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Game theory have in common?

As it turns out quite a lot . . .

Last week while talking with Ghazi, Zero Sum and Infinite Sum games came up . . . I thought I would unpack that idea for even though it is quite simple at face value, they way you view the world surrounding these two ideas will define and shape your entire life and all of your actions.

How you view the world (game theory) impacts your thoughts (CBT) . . . and your thoughts will end up defining your emotional life and your actions (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy).

So, do you believe life is a zero sum game or an infinite sum game?

Find out how this simple idea has cascading effects on your life and wellbeing.

Why doing bad work, and less work, is a good idea - Lucas Skrobot [E006]

Lucas Skrobot — Mon, 13 Aug 2018 14:13:53 +0000

Last week Obaid and I talked about two things which inspired this episode . . .

1) Take a thousand photos and you might get a good one.

2) Set a daily routine/ritual so that in time you reach your goals.

In this episode I expand on these two thought by reading excepts out of my upcoming book "Anchored: The discipline to stop drifting".

There are two main thoughts being shared.

1) Quantity of Quality: If you put in the reps of producing and creating (rather than being paralyzed by wanting to only produce "quality" art).

2) Limiting Work Load and Importance of Sleep: Limiting work, and ensuring sleep, are both integral component of productivity and creativity.

-----------

Here are some questions to help you think through what your twenty-mile-march might be...

The difficult part is deciding in which area of your life to initiate the Twenty-Mile March. To determine the small, daily steps you need to take, you need to know where you are going. Complete the following list to determine what your personal Twenty-Mile March will be.

Review your life vision: if you don’t have one, make one.
- (Ask yourself what you want to be said of you when you die)
List the long-term goals that serve your life vision.
- What would you have to achieve, or commit your life to for you life vision to become true. These would be you long team (10, 20, 30 year goals)
Examine the short-term goals that serve your long-term goals and life vision.
- What must be done in the next 2-3 years to set yourself up for reaching your longterm goals.
Determine the area, or goal, that holds the greatest importance in this season in light of where you hope to end up.
Once you have narrowed down the area of life or a specific goal, break down what you have to do on a daily basis to achieve that task. (Don’t get carried away in trying to do everything every day.)
Ideally, the daily task can be completed in one or two hours. It is also best if you are able to complete the “march” in the morning before lunch, because this is the time of day where your motivation is the highest.
The task should be more than researching or planning your dream. It should be doing, learning, and growing from experience. For example, if you want to become better at photography, take and edit a few photos during the hour. If you want to grow in a particular relationship, write a letter, make a phone call, or grab a coffee with that person.

Don’t be overwhelmed if you aren’t sure what area to pick or how to progress. Start somewhere, head out, and in a week or month’s time, you will not have lost anything even if you decide to change course. You will be on the road, and that is what matters.

Entrepreneurs, Artists, Communicators, and Dreamers are asking these three questions - Lucas Skrobot [E004]

Lucas Skrobot — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 09:07:17 +0000

Today on Own the Future, we will discuss three questions running through everyone’s minds, why we are asking these questions, and why they are important.

We’ve previously touched on these three question:

-Who am I? -What am I gonna do? -Am I gonna make it?

As Dr. Michael Wesch described in a previous episode [E002], These three question hit on three massive areas in our lives. Our identity, our occupation and making a living, and the third is the constant concern of risk and doubt that permeates our world.

Hundreds of years ago, humanity was not asking these questions.

Listen and discover why we are asking these questions today--and what you can, and should, do about it.
