Ever have to drive (or be a passenger) for a long time? Well, my friend, you had yourself a long drive. This week we're talking about sitting in a car for a long time and being bored. We also discuss the new Justice League movie and go on an unexpected tangent about gross novelty items. Sorry.

The History of China

#239 - Ming 26: Red Lead Prescription

In the quiet moments of our lives, we can all sense that our hearts long for something, though we often don’t know what that something is. We seek an answer in our phones, and while they can provide some sense of extension and fulfillment — a feeling of magic — the use of technology also comes with significant costs in individual development and interpersonal connection that we typically don’t fully understand and consider.

My guest today will unpack what it is we really yearn for, how technology, when misused, can direct us away from the path to fulfilling those yearnings, and how we can find true human flourishing in a world in which so much works against it. His name is Andy Crouch and he’s the author of The Life We’re Looking For: Reclaiming Relationship in a Technological World. Today on the show we talk about the tradeoffs you make when you seek magic without mastery, and how we can understand our desires better once we understand ourselves as heart, soul, mind, and strength complexes who want to be loved and known. We discuss the difference between interactions that are personal versus personalized, as well as the difference between devices and instruments, and how to use your phone as the latter instead of the former. We end our conversation with why Andy thinks we need to redesign the architecture of our relational lives and create something he calls “households.”

#796: The Life We’re Looking For

Liebe Hörerinnen und Hörer,

gestartet sind Jochen Gebauer und Dom Schott mit der gleichen, heiligen Mission: Einen treuen Kult errichten und vier böse Gottheiten vom Thron stoßen, das erklärte Ziel von Cult of the Lamb. Die Wege aber, die die beiden dafür einschlugen, hätten unterschiedlicher nicht sein können. Und so kommt das Duo nach vielen Stunden wieder zusammen, um über das große Kot-Müsli-Fiasko, Opferrituale, unheilige Festessen, Hamsterräder und süchtig machende Arbeitsroutinen zu sprechen - und ihren Kultführungsstil miteinander zu vergleichen.

Viel Spaß!
Dom & Jochen

Roller Skating

A lot of people really dislike conflict and have a low opinion of it. They're uncomfortable with disagreements at the office, think there's no room for contention at church, worry that fighting with their partner means their relationship is destined to dissolve, and generally feel that heated arguments tear communities apart.

My guest today, Ian Leslie, used to be one of these conflict-averse people. But as he discovered in researching his new book, Conflicted: How Productive Disagreements Lead to Better Outcomes, conflict not only brings us together, the lack of it, he says, just plain makes us stupider. Today on the show, Ian and I discuss why people get the idea that conflict is unproductive from watching online arguments and why these flame wars aren't actually indicative of the value of arguing offline. We then delve into this surprising value, from the way conflict makes us smarter, to how couples who have heated arguments are actually happier. Ian unpacks some of the myths around difficult conversations, such as the idea that they have to be done in a strictly rational and unemotional way to be fruitful, and he offers ways to approach conflict that will make it more productive, especially remembering to always prioritize the relationship above all.

#799: Getting Along Is Overrated

Authoritarian regimes in many countries, and the men that lead them, depend on the international management of licit and illicit funds under their control. Frank Vogl shows that curbing their activities for their kleptocratic clients is critical to secure democracy, enhance national security, and ensure international financial stability.

Rien ne presse

Steve Kerr - postgame (10/11/22)

On the latest episode of The Jet Stream podcast, Jonas Schwartz and Willie Colon face the reality that Jonas’ fear of a loss to the Bills came true in the worst possible way.  The guys look at the potentially very short future of the tenure of Todd Bowles, wonder if Mike Maccagnan deserves the blame as well, and hand out some hardware – that’s right – the bye week means a mid-season award show on The Jet Stream!
