0:00.0	I am so glad you could join us. I'm your host Mo Gaudet. This podcast is nothing more than a conversation between two good friends sharing inspiring life stories and perhaps
0:16.3	some nuggets of wisdom along the way.
0:20.3	This is your invitation to slow down with us.
0:25.7	Welcome to slow more. Welcome back. My guest today is sort of a move from my team to set me up a little bit for a failure.
0:41.4	I'll tell you why. Because of everything that's
0:44.0	happening in the world today, my team suggested that we have a conversation
0:48.9	around a bit of politics, a bit of philosophy, a bit of human rights, and really try to understand where our world is.
0:55.6	These are topics that I'm passionate about. I understand nothing about. So they
1:00.7	recommended one of the best in the world at it.
1:03.1	My guest today is Tom Palmer,

1:21.3	He is the author of multiple influential publications on
1:25.8	the topic. He is holding senior roles in the Cato Institute, Senior Fellow. He is
1:31.8	the Vice President for International Programs at Atlas Networks.
1:35.7	He is basically traveling the world, has been to North Korea, to Afghanistan, and so on,

1:56.4	Tom is also known to be a wonderful human being so a lot of people that know him have sort of told me in the background of how inclusive, how
2:06.4	respectful and how aligned with his mission he is.
2:10.3	So if I appear to be ignorant, ignore me because our guest really knows what he's talking about.
