Episode Synopsis


This week we're joined by special guest Patrick Ballesteros as we deep dive into how gatekeeping can be an effective tool against instant gratification, how John Calhoun's landmark rodent utopia over-population experiment led to societal collapse, and how corvid behavior effects our everyday lives.
