  • Interesting Topics Covered In-depth

    I pick and choose which in-depth interviews to listen to and so far all have been excellent. Learned so much about topics I only knew the basics about. Has led me to new podcasts. Even more important is I’ve been able to share helpful information with my Millennial children! Mo is a great interviewer.

EP 192: Kalshi CEO: The Debate Over Gambling, Markets & Politics
Q: What responsibility do you have? Are you creating gambling addiction?
The guest discusses safeguards, including KYC, limits, self-exclusion, and proactive bans on high-risk groups, arguing that well-regulated prediction markets can be safer and more educational than unregulated gambling platforms.
EP 192: Kalshi CEO: The Debate Over Gambling, Markets & Politics
Q: Is this different from sports betting?

EP 192: Kalshi CEO: The Debate Over Gambling, Markets & Politics
Q: Why should Kalshi exist?
The guest argues that Kalshi offers a way to broaden which questions can be priced and predicted, complementing polls and traditional markets, and can help depolarize discourse by anchoring opinions to data and market signals.
EP 190: 'Suicidal Empathy': Gad Saad On Immigration, Gender & The Future Of The West
Q: What is Suicidal Empathy and why is it a threat to Western society?
Saad explains Suicidal Empathy as an overstretched empathy that ignores self-preservation and societal stability, potentially accelerating social and cultural decay when applied to immigration, crime, and policy.

Q: What role does talking to kids about tough news play in resilience?
Open-ended conversations that assess what kids already know, share age-appropriate information calmly, and avoid alarmist messaging help protect children's mental health while keeping them informed.
