Ep.221 - The Splinternet & Finding Purpose

"What's Good?" W/ Charlie Taylor

In a week where:

1. World Athletics bans transgender women from competing in international track and field competitions.
2. France has multiple protests go violent after Macron's forced pension age rise.
3. Jonathan Majors is arrested in New York for Alleged Assault.
4. TikTok CEO is grilled for over five hours by US Congress.
5. Humza Yousaf wins the Scottish National Party leadership contest.

In Politics: (13:09) Boris Johnson is in the news again because we can't just have him go away. So since he wants attention, let's talk about how he got £5M 6 months after leaving office.

In Tech: (25:16) With "The West" going on an all out offensive to ban TikTok, it's splitting the Internet as a whole, as if it wasn't already.

In the first of two Life segments: (35:07) Creative people swear by a lot of things that help them when it comes to their creativity - like drugs - but apparently none of it makes you more creative.

Lastly, in the 2nd Life segment: (48:55) Finding purpose in life is maybe the biggest task for anyone. To have that thing that you're built for. So here's something that might help you if you haven't found your purpose.
