I’m trying a new format because it’s a new year. I have also committed to never smoking another cigarette again, perhaps for the rest of my life. Americans think this is funny. They tell me “Hey, Greg. 1986 called and they want their new year’s resolution back.” But perhaps if you’re an Indian man, or even a Briton, you could offer some words of encouragement for me. It’s January 4th and I’m really struggling. But I have 2 young sons, and I’m 35. I think it’s time to take my health more seriously.
But more importantly, I hope my first podcast, which I hope to be the first of many, which will never exceed 10 minutes in length, will spark some good-faith discussion among the 7 people who actively ingest my content. I offer this with love, and not in self-indulgence. I want to know what you think on this serious current geopolitical issue. Thank you for listening.
