Hi friends, Lifehacks is our most popular series of episodes and today we're going to find out what happens when Lifehacks go wrong.

Welcome to Lifefales 101, which is a collection of our biggest blunders throughout life while we've been trying to optimize with the best will in the world and we've fallen flat on our faces.

Expect to learn why useif is barred from a number of pools in Newcastle upon time, how I became an unintentional drug trafficker, what happens when Johnny tried to optimize his alcohol use, and what happened that time when useif joined a cult?

In other news, the Modern Wisdom YouTube channel has now started cutting up some clips, best of from our existing episodes and uploading them with some new content and some additional stuff.

So if you head to the YouTube channel search Modern Wisdom or youtube.com forward slash Modern Wisdom podcast, you will be able to check those out as well.

Death by optimization.

Instead of death.

Not one of these slow drawn on it.

Do not pass go...

Or counter-strike to end up going directly to being beheaded.

I think we need to let you open up with your first life.

So you said if I was a list, Chris and I probably have a couple between us?

I've got sentiment and you've got more Lifefales than you do Lifehacks.
