0:00.0 | If you want to do something worthwhile in life, there is always going to be risk. |
0:04.8 | Your job isn't to avoid risk. Your job is to try and do something worthwhile in life, |
0:10.0 | and therefore that changes your responsibility. |
0:20.1 | On this episode, we'll be talking with Commander Chris Hadfield, the first Canadian to walk in space, |
0:24.9 | author of an astronaut's guide to life on Earth. He stayed in space for six months |
0:29.6 | with multiple space walks under his belt, and he made the first music video in space, |
0:34.0 | not bad, and he's one of the premier space educators of our time. Jason, this guy, |
0:40.0 | amazing guy. Great story, super insightful. Absolutely amazing. I mean, it took us forever to |

1:30.9 | high performers. There's just non-stop wisdom here. I was swimming in gold in this one, |
1:35.7 | Scrooge McDuck style. So enjoy this episode with Commander Chris Hadfield. |
1:42.0 | We thought, okay, we've got all these really serious questions. We've got all these interesting |
1:45.3 | things, but we're going to start with something silly just because somehow this was the most |
