Michael Brooks co-hosts The Majority Report AND hosts his own show because Michael Brooks is a boss. Michael Brooks is also a self-professed socialist and yet Bryan a self-professed libertarian actually enjoys talking to him because Michael brings a different perspective. Woah! This idea sex is way better than idea incest. Imagine if we got more of humanity into leaving their echo chambers and practicing Mixed Mental Arts...or Michael Brooksiness.  You can follow him on Twitter at @_michaelbrooks and try and convert him from socialism by sending him money at <a href="https://www.patreon.com/TMBS" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl= "https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://www.patreon.com/TMBS&source=gmail&ust=1510365902549000&usg=AFQjCNGlwmgG3a4pCTzyB9HE49HfSv3kaA"> https://www.patreon.com/TMBS</a>.

Ep 284 - MMA Meetup: The Second Columbian Exchange

As kids, we're like little sponges blindly copying culture from the people around us. The cultures into which we were all born evolved to fit very old agricultural environments. Each contains timeless wisdom about human affairs but none of them is ideally suited to navigating the ever-changing environment in which we find ourselves.

The goal of Mixed Mental Arts is to steal the best cultural software from everywhere and apply the core principle of Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do "Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own." Welcome to the dojo! We're excited to learn from you.
