Rich Sedei DC, MS Joins Rik to Talk Business and Helping People | Riks Mind Podcast Ep 114
Rik is joined by Rich Sedei to talk entrepreneurial spirit and starting your own business.
Dr. Rich Sedei was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. He attended Texas A&M University (TAMU) in College Station, Texas for his undergraduate degree. There he played lacrosse for the men's team and completed a degree in biology. After college, Dr. Sedei moved to Portland, OR for chiropractic school at the University of Western States. While attending chiropractic school, he was in a horrific car crash, which caused him to suffer multiple fractures in his neck, in addition to disc and ligament injuries throughout the remainder of his spine. He has since recovered well from his injuries with the help of conservative care, rehabilitation exercises, and regenerative medicine. His experience prompted his pursuit of becoming a specialist in traumatic injuries related to auto accidents. In his practice, he draws from his personal and professional experience to help guide his patients, staff, and attending physicians through the nuances of significant physical injuries and the hurdles imposed by insurance companies. In addition to a doctorate degree, Dr. Sedei holds a master's degree in sports medicine, is a certified federal medical examiner, and also holds advanced certifications in whiplash & traumatology. He is currently the Medical Director for Accident Care Chiropractic, which spans across the pacific northwest, specializing in auto injuries. Dr. Sedei is often asked to testify in medico-legal cases as an expert witness in his field. In his free time, Dr. Sedei continues to enjoy coaching and playing lacrosse at a competitive level, doing jiu-jitsu, exploring Portland’s restaurant scene, and traveling.

The Other F Word: Ruth Ben-Ghiat On The Rise of Fascism Abroad & At Home | Riks Mind Podcast Ep 113
Italy’s recent elections have seen the rise of the “Brothers of Italy” party led by Giorgia Meloni. Billed as “center right”, the Brothers of Italy have raised several alarms.
With Meloni at the head of a coalition whose other members include Matteo Salvini’s League and Silvio Berlusconi’s Forza Italia, these members were each once the main force on Italy’s populist right. In the words of today’s guest Professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat, the Brothers of Italy have “an underlying and sinister familiarity.” Although, fascism is not an exclusively Italian problem. The world is going through a kind of fascist renaissance and the United States isn’t immune. Ruth Ben-Ghiat joins us to sound the alarm on rising forces in American politics including Donald Trump and everyone’s favorite wanna be dictator Gov. Ron DeSantis (FL).

Till Kellerhoff on the Declining Cost of Green Energy | Rik's Mind Shorts Ep 110
Global Warming is the biggest reckoning the human race has yet to encounter.
As the United States is still caught in the throes of denial of climate change and “doom & gloom” reigns, there are groups that are trying to solve this problem. One of those groups is the Club of Rome. Building on their groundbreaking report “The Limits to Growth”, released in 1972, the Club has convened a new group to help humanity grow out of our fossil fuel addiction. Their new report “Earth4All” started as a vibrant collective of leading economic thinkers, scientists, and advocates, convened by The Club of Rome, the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, the Stockholm Resilience Centre and the Norwegian Business School.
Earth4All builds on the legacies of The Limits to Growth and the Planetary Boundaries frameworks. Science is at the heart of their work. They rethink capitalism and move beyond GDP for a safe, secure and prosperous future in the Anthropocene.
To help us work our way through Earth4All, we are joined by the Club of Rome’s Till Kellerhoff. Till is the Program Director of the Club of Rome and Coordinator & National Engagement Lead of the Earth4All initiative as well as contributing author of Earth for All: A Survival Guide for Humanity. Before joining The Club of Rome, he studied Politics, Economics and International Relations at the University of Erfurt (Germany), the National Autonomous University of Mexico (Mexico) and the London School of Economics (UK). He is mostly working on themes around "Rethinking Economics" and concepts around societal wellbeing for all within planetary boundaries. You can follow Till on his Twitter @TKellerhoff and the Club of Rome on their twitter @ClubOfRome.
About the Club of Rome:
Most influential organizations begin with the meeting of a few like minds. In 1965, Aurelio Peccei, an Italian industrialist, made a speech that proved inspirational to Alexander King, the Scottish Head of Science at the OECD. The two found that they shared a profound concern for the long-term future of humanity and the planet, what they termed the modern ‘predicament of mankind’.
Three years later, King and Peccei convened a meeting of European scientists in Rome. Although this first attempt failed to achieve unity, a core group of like-minded thinkers emerged. Their goal: to advance three core ideas that still define the Club of Rome today: a global and a long-term perspective, and the concept of “problematique”, a cluster of intertwined global problems, be they economic, environmental, political or social.
In 1972, the Club’s first major Report, The Limits to Growth was published. It sold millions of copies worldwide, creating media controversy and also impetus for the global sustainability movement. This call for objective, scientific assessment of the impact of humanity’s behavior and use of resources, still defines the Club of Rome today. While Limits had many messages, it fundamentally confronted the unchallenged paradigm of continuous material growth and the pursuit of endless economic expansion. Fifty years later, there is no doubt that the ecological footprint of humanity substantially exceeds its natural limits every year. The concerns of the Club of Rome have not lost their relevance.
Today, the Club continues to be at the forefront of challenging and controversial global issues. Propelled by a new mission and organisational structure, which today includes 35 National Associations, the Club of Rome has now published over 45 Reports. They continue to challenge established paradigms and advocate for policies that can practically address the many emergencies facing society and the planet today. The Club remains true to its historical intent, while it attempts to lay the foundations for long-term systemic shifts in global social, environmental and economic systems. In short, it is an established, respected, international think-tank positioned to face the core challenges of the 21st Century.
The organization includes around 100 active full members with a full-time secretariat in Winterthur, Switzerland with a satellite office in Brussels, Belgium.

Rail Strikes, Labor Rights & Non-lethal Restraint NFTs w Dr. Andrea Haverkamp | Rik's Mind Ep 111
7 sick days a year & a fair schedule. That is all the Railroad workers of the United States have asked for.
Despite this, President Biden and Congress have seen fit to force a contract on the railroaders. Both the Senate and House voted for the contract. However, 52 senators (all of which have unlimited sick time and make $174,000) saw fit to vote down the sick time amendment to the contract. This left all the rail workers stuck with a hellish scheduling system (Precision Scheduled Railroading) and a contract that the rank and file have resoundingly rejected over and over.
To really understand this battle, we needed to call in support. Luckily, friend-of-the-show Dr. Andrea Haverkamp came in clutch. Andrea takes us all the way back to some of the earliest railroad strikes in US history to help us get the whole perspective of the incredibly nuanced topic.

Earth4All & Profit Motives to Solving Climate Change | Rik's Mind Clips Ep 110
As the United States is still caught in the throes of denial of climate change and “doom & gloom” reigns, there are groups that are trying to solve this problem. One of those groups is the Club of Rome. Building on their groundbreaking report “The Limits to Growth”, released in 1972, the Club has convened a new group to help humanity grow out of our fossil fuel addiction. Their new report “Earth4All” started as a vibrant collective of leading economic thinkers, scientists, and advocates, convened by The Club of Rome, the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, the Stockholm Resilience Centre and the Norwegian Business School.
Earth4All builds on the legacies of The Limits to Growth and the Planetary Boundaries frameworks. Science is at the heart of their work. They rethink capitalism and move beyond GDP for a safe, secure and prosperous future in the Anthropocene.
To help us work our way through Earth4All, we are joined by the Club of Rome’s Till Kellerhoff. Till is the Program Director of the Club of Rome and Coordinator & National Engagement Lead of the Earth4All initiative as well as contributing author of Earth for All: A Survival Guide for Humanity. Before joining The Club of Rome, he studied Politics, Economics and International Relations at the University of Erfurt (Germany), the National Autonomous University of Mexico (Mexico) and the London School of Economics (UK). He is mostly working on themes around "Rethinking Economics" and concepts around societal wellbeing for all within planetary boundaries. You can follow Till on his Twitter @TKellerhoff and the Club of Rome on their twitter @ClubOfRome.

About the Club of Rome:
Most influential organizations begin with the meeting of a few like minds. In 1965, Aurelio Peccei, an Italian industrialist, made a speech that proved inspirational to Alexander King, the Scottish Head of Science at the OECD. The two found that they shared a profound concern for the long-term future of humanity and the planet, what they termed the modern ‘predicament of mankind’.
Three years later, King and Peccei convened a meeting of European scientists in Rome. Although this first attempt failed to achieve unity, a core group of like-minded thinkers emerged. Their goal: to advance three core ideas that still define the Club of Rome today: a global and a long-term perspective, and the concept of “problematique”, a cluster of intertwined global problems, be they economic, environmental, political or social.
In 1972, the Club’s first major Report, The Limits to Growth was published. It sold millions of copies worldwide, creating media controversy and also impetus for the global sustainability movement. This call for objective, scientific assessment of the impact of humanity’s behavior and use of resources, still defines the Club of Rome today. While Limits had many messages, it fundamentally confronted the unchallenged paradigm of continuous material growth and the pursuit of endless economic expansion. Fifty years later, there is no doubt that the ecological footprint of humanity substantially exceeds its natural limits every year. The concerns of the Club of Rome have not lost their relevance.
Today, the Club continues to be at the forefront of challenging and controversial global issues. Propelled by a new mission and organisational structure, which today includes 35 National Associations, the Club of Rome has now published over 45 Reports. They continue to challenge established paradigms and advocate for policies that can practically address the many emergencies facing society and the planet today. The Club remains true to its historical intent, while it attempts to lay the foundations for long-term systemic shifts in global social, environmental and economic systems. In short, it is an established, respected, international think-tank positioned to face the core challenges of the 21st Century.
The organization includes around 100 active full members with a full-time secretariat in Winterthur, Switzerland with a satellite office in Brussels, Belgium.

2022 Midterms: The GOP Civil War | Rik's Mind Ep 109 Clips
The Republican strategy of promoting election fraud has backfired. The Democrats (as of now with the Georgia run-off to come) are retaining control of the Senate and the Republicans have taken the House, but only by a slim margin of 7 seats. The GOP seems to be in the midst of a civil war between Trump and DeSantis, setting up a contentious 2024 Election cycle.

The Democrats (as of now with the Georgia run-off to come) are retaining control of the Senate and the Republicans have taken the House, but only by a slim margin of 7 seats. The GOP seems to be in the midst of a civil war between Trump and DeSantis, setting up a contentious 2024 Election cycle.

Twitter is a Dumpster Fire and Elon Musk Did It | Rik's Mind Ep 109
Everyone’s favorite billionaire Daddy Musk has been turning Twitter into a dumpster fire. Firing 7k people within the first week. Most of those being his entire content moderation team and engineers who actually built Twitter. Surprise to everyone this has caused chaos. Uses of N-word on Twitter jumped by almost 500% in the few days following his takeover and the Twitter Blue plan has backfired in spectacular fashion. They’re bleeding money and users, so let’s all enjoy Elon’s follies.
