Immigration Problems with Irma Goosen

It seems that, in this day and age, Immigrating to another country is not all that uncommon. But with all the well known causes and issues, it's startling to actually hear them from someone who has experienced the inefficiency of our system. 
Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts.
My guest today is Irma Goosen. She was born and raised in South Africa, came to the United States, and eventually settled in Canada; but the reasons and timeline of these changes will likely shock you as much as they did me, which is to say: A fraction of how bad they were for Irma. She also coaches for TEDx and gives speeches on the benefits of legal immigration for both people and companies. And if you live in a privileged country, this interview will definitely leave you feeling grateful for every small and large convenience we have.

Let's see if it's worth moving.  
So what would you have to see or experience to make you want to leave your country?
In other news... March is pretty much over, and here the rankings are regulating:

The United States, with California, Illinois, and Washington now at the top. 4. Australia, with Victoria now leading Queensland and Western Australia. 5. Canada, with Ontario still keeping them just above Israel.

Civil Rights Icon (Marian Anderson) with Emile J Henwood III

Most people want to change the world for the better, and I would assume nearly all of those want to be remembered for the good work they did in life. However, our subject today actually did a lot of her most notable work followed by the statement "Don't tell anyone." 
Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts. 
My guest today is Emile Joe Henwood III. Joe, as he likes to be called, has done the most exhaustive studies on one of our truly great civil rights leaders who has been lost to time. Marian Anderson was an African American singer, who inspired major names like Jackie Robinson and Martin Luther King Jr (MLK) before they ever approached their famous days. So why do so few people even know her name? ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marian_Anderson ) ( Www.WhyWeLoveMarian.Com ) ( https://a.co/d/9Ehbqge will take you to: Www.Amazon.Com "Remembering a Great American Hero Marian Anderson" ) 
Let's inspire those to follow!  
And having talked about a unifier of such legendary proportions, I just want us all to come together. I don't care who you voted for, because at the end of the day I want us all to succeed. I keep hearing people screaming across both sides at how the other is stupid or failing, but there is no forward momentum in that. We should all want each other to succeed for the betterment of humankind.
In other news... March is halfway over, and here the rankings are still strange: 
1. Hong Kong. Can someone in Hong Kong tell me why the sudden spike in popularity? 2. England of the United Kingdom. 3. The United States, with California, Missouri, and Washington at the top. 4. Australia, with Western Australia still at a small lead. 5. Canada, with Ontario keeping them above Israel, who is now right behind them.

Quantum Waves with Angela Longo

This is one of those topics that most gloss over because the word "quantum" makes it sound science heavy and intimidating, but in reality we cover the entire basics in about 20 minutes. 
Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts. 
My guest today is Doctor Angela Longo. This PhD knows biochemistry inside and out, but when she found herself on death's door: She reached to find a new skillset. That learning brought her to our topic today, and the focus of her new life: Quantum Waves. We'll learn what they are, the possible uses, and how we might have been overlooking some simple things that have always been within us.

Let's find our triplets?  
This is one of those sciences that I certainly don't have enough knowledge or experience to speak on, but perhaps some members of the audience can shed a little light with their own experiences? I find it hard to believe that we can cure cancers with invisible waves, but I also didn't know the role of glucose until I spoke with Dr Poothulil back in the early episodes.
In other news... February is basically over, and here are the rankings: 
1. The United States, with California, New York, and Texas at the top. 2. England of the United Kingdom. 3. Australia, with Queensland squeaking out a win! 4. Canada, with Ontario just barely beating British Columbia. 5. New Zealand, holding that top 5 spot with a death grip over Ireland and Ghana.

Trading Energy for Stress with Stephen Sideroff

I was recently told there's no term for a good dream, but we do have the word nightmare. In that same way, a lot of people hear the word stress without knowing there is actually a term for good stress.

Retirement with Rodger Friedman

Retirement seems like everyone's goal, and yet it feels like no one has a solid plan. And moreover, why do we trust ourselves to manage these critical accounts without any education?

I just hope you enjoy it all.

Historical Fiction with B McGraw

So many people love history, and so many others love fiction; it's no wonder that this Venn diagram overlaps at some point, but I'm almost surprised it's not bigger. 
Happy New Years and Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts. 
My guest today is B McGraw. Roman history nerds rejoice as McGraw writes about the year of the four emperors, 69AD. But here's the deal, historical record only covers so much of the story; so McGraw filled in the gaps with what he thought summed up a humorous emperor's rise to power, then modernized the language so it doesn't read like a boring textbook. In short: He made it up. However, you would actually learn about history if you read his book, making historical fiction a very interesting category.

Let's fake it till we make it!  
I want to learn history in basically only this fashion from now on. It very much reminds me of Iconoblast where they were about 90% accurate and 10% nonsense.
In other news... January is looking promising with the following rankings: 
1. England of the United Kingdom, holding an unusual top spot. 2. The United States, with California, New York, and Texas still leading. 3. Australia, with Queensland still dominating the others so far. 4. Canada, with Ontario and Quebec neck and neck. 5. Ghana, dethroning Ireland.
