Good Morning Afghanistan! Meditations on my lifetime war
Today US troops leave Afghanistan, ending a war that started my freshman year of high school.
How did we get here and what can we do to re-think western society?
I believe we need to have more soul, flow, and love back into society. We became a beacon of hope for the rest of the world by being aggressive and having rhythm, soul and flow as a nation. We need to get that back.
Thanks for listening, please subscribe and check out the other content! More great guests and rants to come.

Good Morning, Afghanistan! Introduction and Episode One
On September 11, 2001, the TVs turned on in my high school cafeteria. I spent study hall watching the events unfold.
On August 15, 2021, the twitter notifications blew up as Afghanistan fell to the Taliban. This time, I did not notice right away as I was on paternity leave with my seven week old son.
Join me over the next twelve mornings for my twelve part mini-series:
Good Morning, Afghanistan!
I will cover international updates on the evolving #Afghanistan situation, as well as what it is like to change, feed, burp, walk around, soothe, put to sleep...and then repeat all over again for sixteen straight days while my beautiful girlfriend and mother of our son, Mirjana, gets some much needed R&R.
First episode is up! I rant a little bit. Being sleep deprived for the last five days has already started to mess with me. I have no idea what time it is and words are now hard.
Topics covered include the upcoming comedy/hopefully not tragedy of the women's rights movement vs. a 6th Century terrorist ideology, Uncle Pro Ject Pat comes to town, and why America needs to get it together.

NFL Playoff Preview, Best bets and Props Bet with Jordan Ballard
Friend/friend of the podcast Jordan Ballard came by to talk all things NFL Playoff Preview, his fantasy football podcast with @shootyourshot sports, as well as a discussion of at what point in Sunday's game will Cam Jordan strip sack Trubisky. I said when the Bears are up 10-6 and we have a glimmer of hope...
I suggest ALL of you start or join a podcast, it is a great time and builds communication skills like crazy. Jordan is a balla and I highly suggest you listen if you like making money. Jordan crushed his prop bets this year and has one in particular that hit 7 times, at one point hitting at over +1000....
This was a fun sports/fantasy/gambling podcast and I hope you enjoy! Thanks again to Jordan for coming on.

New Year, New You - Try Improv Comedy in 2021 with Ross Taylor!
Ross Taylor is an actor, writer, and hilarious comedian! He has learned and now teaches improv classes as The Magnet Theatre in New York, as well as The Second City theatre in Chicago. Ross also teaches drop in classes on his own at RossTaylorTeaching.com. This was a hilarious interview. My audio goes out and comes back for about a 20 minute stretch - Ross is so funny, you will not even notice. I highly recommend listening to the whole episode, but Ross's best stories start around the 15, 16 minute mark. I almost peed my pants during the taping and while listening to it afterwards. Please enjoy and give improv a chance in 2021! It changed my life and Ross's for the better. Ross was probably always hilarious, but 10+ years of improv probably helps. If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave five star reviews! You can also find the video on YouTube at the Laugh & Learn with Vern page. Thank you for stopping by :)
