We ALL want a better world - how do we do that, Paul?  
To make the 21st century be one of humanity's proudest, we want our BEST thinkers and thinking aimed at our most important problems.  

Which problems do you talk about, Paul? 

• Climate change, existential threat or hoax?  
• Vaccination, life saver, or kid killer?   
• Do the potential benefits of AI outweigh the "Judgement Day" scenario? 
• Alternative medicine, and supplements - do they work, or are they woo?  
• Charter schools, do they just increase the advantage of the already most privileged?  
• How do we fix obesity, depression, and the opioid crisis? Are immigrants and robots stealing jobs? 
• Are cellphones, helicopter parenting, and social media destroying childhood?  
• Does the internet make us smarter, or do fake news and filter bubbles make us stupider?  
• Is the mainstream media biased - to the left or to the right? 
• Have we seen the crest of globalization and a re-emergence of nationalism and mercantilism?  
• What can we do about the rise of fascism and authoritarianism?  
• Will democracy survive identity politics and the polarization of our society?

But really...

So what are YOU doing, Paul?
In my podcasts, I talk to today's smartest cookies (philosophers, scientists, and the occasional CEO or politician) - provoking them to make their ideas useful and relevant. In my books and blogs, I challenge orthodoxy, debunk pseudoscience and alternative facts.

1. The Truth Wars book - how solving the "war on truth", by corporations, politicians, and the media, might be the most important problem to solve because solving our other problems may depend on solving this first.
2. The Think Bigger Think Better podcast - getting our most inspirational and best thinkers on the show to share their ideas with YOU.  
3. The Behavioral Revolution - how we need to put changing behaviors at the center of our ideas on how to change the world, including addiction, obesity, climate change, strategic change, culture change in business, and personal change to our habits.
4. The Science of Personal Change - and online course bringing the latest thinking on behavioral change (habits, nudges, etc) to you
5. A "monthly bull-session" - which will be a platform for you to hang out with my guests and me, to talk about what matters most to YOU.

Why support me? Why not give it to Harvard?
Three reasons: 

• I'm a scholar who spent 35 years in the business world. I make stuff practical and relevant in ways they other big podcasters often don't. Sam Harris is my hero, but I find his show too abstract sometimes.
• I'm much broader (from hard physical sciences, to psychology and economics, to philosophy) than academics and other public intellectuals can afford to be - and the interesting insights come when disciplines overlap. (E.g. climate science and psychology, neuroscience and education)
• I'm independent - I don't have to worry about academic politics, publish or perish, or any of that stuff.

Whatcha done lately, bro?

• In 2018, Think Bigger Think Better made it onto a list of Top 20 Philosophy podcasts - up there with my boy Sam Harris, and my nemesis Jordan Peterson
• In 2017, I became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (even though I'm a scientist and business guy, go figure).  Other Fellows have included Steven Hawking and Benjamin Franklin.  In the same month, I was also voted one of the top-30 "culture gurus" in the world.
• I started to write full-time in 2013, while I was teaching Business Ethics and Leadership at the University of Denver.  My book, The Science of Organizational Change, is a best-seller in culture change/ change management.
• Before that, I was CEO of a small ($5m) consulting firm that specialized in culture change and leadership development.
• Before that, I was one of PwC's top leadership/ culture/ innovation "gurus".
• Before that, I was a derivatives trader and head of sales in investment banking. 
• My degrees are in Physical Biochemistry, Philosophy, and Psychology - but I also studied both Neuroscience and Economics at grad level without doing the dissertation thang.
• Before that, well, I was a science, math, and language prodigy (for real), finishing college at 19 (despite not drawing a sober breath for four years), but I decided it would be a good idea trying to drink myself to death on Wall Street before accomplishing anything meaningful with my life. Go figure.
