Quote from "Reinventing the Wheel"

Hey everyone, I thought I'd share a quote from a book my brother recommended: Peter Hershock's "Reinventing the Wheel: A Buddhist Response to the Information Age" 

No particular suggestion I'm implying by sharing this with you, just thought it was a rather eloquent way to describe the "fastne...

Hey all, 

Here's the script for this video - I left in a lot of the things that I cut out when transforming it into video, so it might be fun to read even if you've already seen the video.  The parts that are in the attached script but not in the video are highlighted in yellow.  2017-03-10 03:20:24 +0000 UTC View Post

New Vid! "How to get more Quality Sleep" + Script PDF

Hey everyone! Hope you're having an awesome Friday. Thanks for waiting on this one, I was beating myself up cause in my last video I said "I will have the new video out next week."

Update & Notes on the Sleep Video

Hey everyone, 

I know I've been a bit inconsistent with the Patreon page. I really appreciate the support. The money is great and helps me afford to spend more time on this and buy more books (Just dropped 100 bucks at Half Price books in Austin, TX before coming back to Japan) , but more imp...

Hey everyone, 

New video up. Had been wrestling with this video for a while, looking forward to hear what y'all think. 

Sorry to be so late on getting back to some of the messages (I think I've at least made an initial response with everyone) - the videos really suck up a bunch of ...

Script/Editing for "Sugar & alcohol" (SPOILERS)

My script draft for the video I'm working on is attached for anyone who wants to take a look.  If you're not particularly interested in the editing process, I recommend just waiting for the video as it will be more fun and interesting that way. (Hopefully the video will be up in maybe another 4...

New Video on Sugar & Question

Hey everyone,

Quick question: 

Before I start compiling clips, doing voiceover and editing for the video, I get my script done. That means it's usually ready 30 - 50 hours before the video actually comes out. I didn't think to post it since it would just spoil the video, but would y'all...

Documentaries

Hey all,

As I try to gather information for my videos, I read a lot of books and watch a lot of lectures and documentaries. Some are just designed to educate and inform and some are designed to "reveal" something about the state of the world. Usually those will leave me feeling frustrated, irritat...
