What is Effective Philosophy? Juan and I simplify hard to grasp concepts into pragmatic takeaways that can be applied to every day life (fitness, goal setting, work, parenting, travel, hobbies, finances, etc.,). 2 x episodes a week. We go live every Wednesday with our meanderings, plus an extra as a more casual conversation with a guest or between ourselves.

episode 372: Discipline & Maintaining An Obligation To Your Past/Future Self
Have you ever asked yourself what the difference is between purposeful pain and pointless suffering? In Episode #199 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: Juan's purchase of a Vee Friend, some of the basics behind non-fungible tokens and gas fees, what NFT's are actually used for, the reasons for doing something painful, why we do the things we don't want to do, a story of drinking at an early age and how much of our own podcasts we would watch.
As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!
