Trader MindsetPedigree is more marketing than a predictor of success Subscribe to the show I don't know of a single factor or variable in your life that will have more of an impact on your long-term success in trading than keeping your losses small. Pedigree won't mean much if you can't enter your protective stops and keep losses small. Deep Thoughts was written by Jack Handey, not Al Franken. I misspoke at the beginning of the episode.

Shut Up and Watch This#76: The Conformist (1970)In the words of noted 90s philosopher, Jack Handey, “If you ever discover that what you're seeing is a play within a play, just slow down, take a deep breath, and hold on for the ride of your life.” Bertolucci’s 1970 classic THE CONFORMIST is similarly layered; a flashback within a fantasy within a frame story. Beyond the complex structure, this film is also rife with striking imagery, symbolism and camera movement. Dave and Ashley discuss how The Conformist has influenced generations of filmmakers from Coppola to Gerwig, plus how Freud ruins everything.

As yet unnamed34 - Justice Delayed, Justice Diluted, Justice DeferredEven talking about heavy subjects like the trial of the murderer of George Floyd we manage to make each other laugh, it is amazing, and probably explains a lot about why we have stuck with one another nigh on these 15 plus years. Friends are cool. But yeah we talk trial verdict, racism, GOP evilness, stupidity, herd mentality, externalities, Jack Handey and Douglas Adams. Not in that order.

2020-11-2528 minThe Voice of the ArtsSuffering From IdiocyIt is not rare for us fallible humans to make a mistake every now and again, but does doing something stupid make you an idiot? Or are you merely someone who suffers from idiocy? Humorist Ian Frazier struggles with this distinction in his raucous New Yorker essay “What I Am,” one of two Frazier pieces we feature on this week’s episode. Jeff Foxworthy makes an appearance with some of his hilariously acerbic insights into being a Southerner, and show favorite Jack Handey generously presents some ideas for paintings to struggling artists in need of inspiration.

This week, we focus on rhetoric: the power of effective or persuasive speech or writing, as exhibited by some real masters of the craft — Churchill, Shakespeare, Sorkin, and of course, Jack Handey. Through brilliantly chosen words and striking delivery, these writers have an exceptional ability to inspire, enrage, and enliven their audiences.
