Drew To You

Some thoughts that have been keeping me up at night. I talk about The Neverending Story and the encroaching of Nihilism into the world. We don't even understand what things are anymore and then we wonder why we are all confused...

Ayaan Hirsi Ali has made much of a humble beginning and shows to us that it's not so much about needing to be the fastest in life, but in taking the right steps. She has become an unnecessarily controversial figure as all the mistakes she has made, she is very open about and I hope by listening to this you will gain respect for her.

Sophie Scholl and the other members of the White Rose stood nobly against the evils of Hitler and the Nazis. They could have chosen any number of powerful sounding names, but they chose the White Rose, because they wished to stand for purity in the face of evil. They knew the odds were stacked against them, but would rather face death than allow the blood of innocents to stain their hands. We should be like Sophie.

The Wizard of Tuskegee set himself apart through simple and earnest hard work. He was the first black man to be invited as a guest to the White House and founded the largest Negro University of the time while earning the respect of former slave owners. His contribution to the civil rights movement cannot be overstated and few men lived more admirable lives. He was a guiding star to those wishing to rise Up from Slavery and an example to us all.

Follow us as my guest Carlie Jackson and I dive into the life of Marvin Heemeyer a man pushed well beyond his breaking point. From kindhearted Air Force veteran to dangerous criminal, we discuss the events that led to his fall.

If you're unhappy and unsuccessful in your endeavors you've probably heard "you just need to change your attitude". But sometimes you're just doing the wrong thing. This was the case for John Audubon a talented artist. Through incompetence he lost the fortune that his father gave him. He failed miserably until he finally embraced his passion. John's artwork is now considered a benchmark in nature paintings.

Maria das Graças Silva Foster. If you think her name is long just wait until you hear her long list of accomplishments. She has personified perseverance and redefined freedom itself.

Listen as we dive into the life of Simo Häyhä, the sniper who holds the record for the most confirmed kills. We look at how he became successful and handled the guilt associated with war.
