The idea of who initiates vulnerability and then we realized that we all just want to be connected.

And like people then would hug me, more people would hug, more people would hug, and it just turned into this like.

But then when the last person then stopped people, then it goes into another 20 minutes of no one.

Whoever takes that first leap of faith to be vulnerable, we recognize that.

Oh, what's this I have on? If you're only listening, it's a shirt that says free agent. This is the merch. I want you to buy it. You'll see the link. I buy it every time I have it. Yes, that same shirt.

But you know, I want to use the money for us to crowdsource contributions. That's what it's about. Okay, it's not some brand extension thing. But I do like this idea.

Free agent open mind open heart, no tribe, no team. Okay, certainly not about these two toxic parties on the back or a lot of the different items say, are you free? A lot of us think we are.

But if you're adhering to what a party is and you're you're having to oppose the other side and you're having to adopt that group think, are you really free?

Are you really a free agent? Because free agents will become change agents and that's what we need. We need the system to change to give power to people. Quick reason for this.

When you think primaries, you think parties, right? The parties run the primaries. They figure out the candidates.

Parties aren't given that power in law or in the constitution. It's just culture. Why do we allow them to dominate?

Something to think about now. Another thing is that I often bash social media and say social media is not reality. Now I say that for one primary reason.

It isn't any survey you look at anybody who measures it. These are the furious few. It is a magnified minority. Now many of us are on social media. Look, I'm different. It's my job to engage.

Many of us. So let's say many of you are on there, but you pass it. That's fine. I'm not criticizing it. I don't know why you go on at all to be honest.

But those who are active voices that get magnified. People who identify in there are strong Democrat or strong Republican.

You do a survey of Democrats. The most recent one I've seen was from Harvard. 80% of Democrats say they're center left.

That ain't Twitter. Okay. People who are strong Democrat, strong Republican, less than 20% in recent research. So it's not reality. That's why I say it.

Now that said there is good on social media. It is a tremendous platform for not just getting out information, but for connecting emotionally.

For doing good things for crowdsourcing contributions and to do uniquely well what you are about to be introduced to on the podcast today.
