    In the Fourth Quarter, we wrap it up tightly, but also loosely leave room for more. We discuss how the love, lust, and commitment, connected to your friends, family, and acquaintances, can influence, and is influenced by your ideas, actions, and results, which has and will, influence your nostalgic feelings connected to your past moments, as well as your future (which will inevitably become your past). This episode continues with the authentic seriously comedic tone while we discuss what to take more seriously, what to take less seriously, and how some may want you to take something less seriously, simply because you take that thing more seriously than them. That popular occurance also happens in reverse, in the name of freedom. If you have love for (nostalgia about past episodes, the current moment or hope for the future), lust over new episodes (containing my ideas, actions, and proven results) of, or have any size of commitment (are we acquaintances, friends or family?) towards The Golden Rule, and this podcast,



    thank you and tell everybody!

    In Episode 3, we discuss the joy of acquaintances, friends, family, and how the addition or lack of them influences the progression of your life. I recently spent numerous days with people, which led me to think even deeper about my personal life and the actions within it. We touch on ideas that are connected through partners as well as how people can be rightfully demoted out of your life. Follow us as we build on connected ideas.

  • Second Quarter / Ideas, Actions, Results.
    Jun 29 2025

    In episode 2 of season 2, the second quarter, we dive deeper into the game of life, which isn’t truly a “game”, because you could die and not be “playing” anymore. We enjoy analogizing life to a game, helping us not take life so “seriously”, while continuously playing to win.

    We discuss adaption to your wins and losses. We discuss ideas, the following actions, and inevitable results. We discuss Bitcoin, like usual. We discuss systems. We freestyle thoughts regarding ghosting, liars, people that are pessimistic against your optimism, and how those people are actually helping you on your journey by being undesirably honest. We tell stories and give RIP shoutouts. We discuss love. We laugh. Your name may have been mentioned in this episode. Facts only.

    Quarter 1 set us up to go deeper into Quarter 2, and Quarter 2 sets our team up to stretch the lead in Quarter 3. You are unknowingly curious for more “juicy” detail and useless information. We get it. That’s why you scroll. See you soon.

  • First Quarter / Nostalgia, The Moment, and The Future.
    Mar 30 2025

    Send us a text

    In the season two opener of The Golden Rule, the main plot remains the same, as minor details constantly evolve. Season one presented twelve episodes for the twelve months of the year. Season two presents four episodes for the four quarters of the year. There's four quarters in the financial calendar. There's four quarters in an NBA or NFL game. A circle is usually broken down to into four parts first.

    In this first episode, we set the stage for the rest of the season. A lot of the topics lightly discussed in episode one will be heavily discussed in episodes two through four.

    In this episode we discuss the connection between four quarters and our lives. We give shoutouts to family, friends, and sponsors. We laugh at situations. We discuss Bitcoin (finance). We discuss how nostalgia can be a silent killer or a loud motivator. We discuss the trend of passive disrespect. We discuss health. We discuss effective communication while effectively communicating. We plant seeds for future episodes while always connecting with our past, in the present.

  • What is The "Right" Thing to Do?
    Nov 3 2024

    Send us a text

    In episode eleven, we ask about and discuss the "right" things to do. We've discussed a lot of everyday actions and feelings in our time together during the first ten episodes, and in this sum of season one, you may switch some of your "right" decisions to the "wrong" side of the board. You may double down on your "wrong" decisions because they aren't objective. Have your decisions become more aligned with your definition of The Golden Rule? Are they a case by case basis depending on how you feel or who the other person is that you are reacting to?

  • Are There Objective Wrongs?
    Oct 6 2024

    Send us a text

    In episode ten, I start by asking the question, are there objective wrongs? We are daily discussing subjectivity and objectivity, sometimes without even realizing. Objective is defined as, "not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts." Instinctively, you may say "YES!" I agree with you. Justification may not agree with you. In regard to different versions of The Golden Rule, we discuss what I think are the basic objective wrongs. What do you think are objective wrongs? Do you think objective wrongs should be taught to children at a young age with a concise explanation of the wrong and the consequences?

  • The Marathon of Life
    Sep 1 2024

    Send us a text

    In episode nine, we discuss The Marathon of Life. A marathon is literally defined as a "long distance running race, strictly one of 26 miles." The metaphor that life is a marathon isn't widely seen as a metaphor anymore, but a definite truth. We discussed love, hobbies, relationships, sex, infidelity, honesty, the mind, and how they are all involved in your experience. We've also discussed how both versions of The Golden Rule are approached regarding those daily actions and situations. How often do you check-in with yourself and others on your marathon? Do you like the pace you are moving at? Could it be faster? Could it possibly be slower? Hopefully you are exchanging pleasantries with everybody you encounter on this marathon, whether you are passing them up, or they are passing you up.
