Let’s Talk About Sex Part 2 (KEW Episode 118)

In part 1 of this series, I introduced the difference between asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction is basically mitosis or simple cell division. This leaves little room for variation. Evolution and change are slow, and your kids are basically clones of you. With the onset and ultimate domination of sexual reproduction, much more change becomes possible. New concepts like gender and parenting evolve. Evolution, itself becomes THE way organisms can adjust to changing…

Love is All You Need. KEW Episode 115

My most pedantic episode ever. While I am a pretty touchy-feely hippie kind of guy, I shy away from the overly emotional and more ‘woo-woo’ concepts. I don’t believe in the ‘secret’ (though I do think a positive attitude attracts positive things) and I don’t like gratuitous cheesiness. But I have had multiple experiences that lead me toward Love.

Preview KEW Episode 77: Who is KEW for?

As we pivot from WHAT the Are vs Should Problem is to HOW we deal with it, I wanted to take a minute to further define the KEW listener. Basically, you are someone who is a bit like me, but with plenty of room for differentiation. We are certainly going to be dissimilar, but how are we alike? You have spent most of your life analytical, trusting science and pragmatism over your gut. However, you…

Preview KEW Episode 68: Accountability

Accountability: : the quality or state of being accountable especially  : an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility or to account for one’s actions So, yeah, that first one’s lame because it references a definition with at least 7 meanings. The especially part gets pretty close, though. How do you feel about accountability? Personally, I’m a huge fan. In fact, I will go so far as to say one of my main complaints about the world is that people…
