Coming up next on the Jordan Harbinger Show.

If a corrupt person has gotten into power and is just abusing that power,

then you don't need to change the system because they already were corrupt to begin with.

You just have to get better people into power.

If a good person goes into a system and gets spit out as an evil monster,

you have to fix the system because then it's a good person drawn into the system and power

corrupted them. So the problem is in any individual case, you'll see somebody in power behaving badly.

And there's two basically opposite explanations for why that happened.

They were always bad or they became bad.

And if you misdiagnose it, the solution is completely wrong.

Welcome to the show, I'm Jordan Harbinger.

I'm the Jordan Harbinger Show. We decode the stories, secrets and skills of the world's

most fascinating people. We have in-depth conversations with scientists and entrepreneurs,

spies and psychologists, even the occasional mafia-unforcer drug trafficker or extreme

athlete, maybe even a neuroscientist here and there.

Each episode turns our guests wisdom into practical advice you can use to build a deeper understanding

of how the world works and become a better thinker. If you're new to the show or you want to tell

your friends about it and thank you so much for doing that, I suggest our episode starter packs.

These are collections of top episodes organized by Topic. That'll help new listeners get a taste

of everything we do here on the show. Topics like China, North Korea, technology, futurism,

crime and cults, negotiation, communication, persuasion, influence and more.
