The world can few like a hopeless ugly place. There are about a billion problems in the world but yet it feels like very few people are willing to talk about them or possible solutions. In this podcast, Parker James dives headfirst into the world's insane problems from their history, to some facts you probably didn't know, to the people responsible and in the same vein as the classic essay "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift provides a solution that will leave you thinking...that could work.

Customer Reviews
Creativity at its Finest
Each episode is thorough, thought provoking, and allows to see the topics from a different perspective than your own.
Sorry You Were Stolen
As my first listen, this was hard topic to hear, but Parker James jumped in and cut right to the chase. He quotes his sources and is straight forward with the statistics. His solution to the foster care / adoption crisis is definitely one that’ll leave your thinking…
