#45 - Death by Selfie

02/19/24 • 48 min

Is narcissism on the rise? Are we all in danger if losing our souls behind a cloud of selfies and avocado-on-toast pics and ‘look at me’ TikTok dance videos? Yep, it’s only one of the biggest questions of our time, and today your fearless and dynamic duo of podcasting is diving in! PJ offers advice on how to spot a narcissist. Dr Bruce exhibits an unhealthy fixation with the Queen of Denmark. And at some stage we try to squeeze in some actual science (but we don't try very hard).
Oh and by the way, dear listener, did we sound amazing? Were we sexy and sophisticated? Did you like our cover pic? Did you share us with all your friends? Did you? Huh? Did you?
:-)
And for the gruesomely minded, here's that list of selfie-related injuries and deaths we talked about!

And for the record, when we're doing real work and not podcasting, you'll find Dr Bruce, The Global Futurist presenting here and PJ applying his digital marketing genius here. Enjoy!

#44 - Blowing Up Hydrogen - Part 2

H2, what is it good for? After calling out the scam-artists and greenwashers and setting a match to just about every hydrogen project on the planet based on the sky-high energy-input requirements and appalling economics, we’re putting on our nice guy hats to look at where that fab little molecule makes sense. But you know us: fun is our name and irreverence is our game, so of course we also rake over a few more pet H2 projects sponsored by Big Gas before offering some gratuitous and entirety unsolicited advice to our good friends at Toyota!
And if you're looking for Bruce’s calculations referenced in the episode, you’ll find them in this article. And his interview with Michael Barnard on hydrogen and our energy future can be found here.
