  How NOT to Be Stupid Ever Again & What’s Really In Your Personal Care Products Dur: 38:02

  Why are there no male waiters at Hooters? Why are there no male Rockettes? Isn’t that discrimination? Actually, the law allows it and I’ll explain how and why. Then, if you don’t want to do stupid things you need to hear what Adam Robinson has to say. Adam is one of the co-founders of the Princeton Review and is now a top financial adviser. I watched a Power Point presentation he created about, “How Not to be Stupid” so I asked him to explain it to you. In essence, we do stupid things when one or more of seven factors are present. Listen to hear what they are and you’ll do far fewer stupid things in the future - maybe never again! BTW, you can find Adam on Twitter - @IAmAdamRobinson. Also, it turns out that sarcasm is good for your brain. Whether you deliver it or hear it from someone else, it makes your brain work differently. It's really interesting. Then, what about all those personal care products you use every day? Is constant exposure to moisturizers, deodorant, lipstick and other cosmetics safe? After all, the FDA monitors these things. But Alexandra Spunt, author of [No More Dirty Looks: The Truth about Your Beauty Products](http://amzn.to/2gVnFDW) () says there is real concern about the ingredients in some of these products. For example, there is lead is many lipsticks. How can that be? Listen to hear just what the concerns are and how you can protect yourself.

  Bonus Bag Man, Episode 1: An Unsettling Secret Dur: 25:02

  He was brash. Politically incorrect. An “outsider” political candidate who rose to the White House, out of nowhere, with a reputation as a “counter- puncher.” But Vice President Spiro Agnew was also something else… an active criminal whose secrets were about to be exposed. What happens when a “counter- puncher” in the White House suddenly sees his political future directly threatened by investigators inside his own Justice Department?

  The Present and Future of Autonomous Vehicles with Qasar Younis and Alexandr Wang Dur: 67:36

  On this episode of Venture Stories, Erik is joined by two exciting guests:
  Qasar Younis (@qasar), co-founder of Applied Intuition, and Alexandr Wang
  (@alexandr_wang), CEO of Scale. Both Qasar and Alex are creating software that
  is transforming the way autonomous vehicles are being developed. The three of
  them have an expansive conversation about where autonomous technology is at
  today and how the technology and industry might evolve in the future.
  Throughout the conversation the founders peel back the curtain on the
  autonomous vehicle development process and put forth are a number of ideas
  about autonomous technology that run counter to the prevailing narrative in
  the media today. They begin by talking about some of the specific ways that
  software is transforming the auto industry and in what ways the tools the
  founders are building are being used in the development of autonomous
  technology. Erik asks about the pros and cons of being a horizontal company
  vs. a vertical company in the space, and Qasar and Alex discuss the extent to
  which existing car manufacturers have modularized the parts that go into
  traditional vehicles and why this trend will continue with autonomous
  technology. Qasar and Alex point out that the key question now is not if, but
  when, autonomous technology will be deployed at mass scale, and say that even
  three years ago it was unclear whether it was going to happen at all. They
  compare the industry as it exists now to the early days of the iPhone and say
  that like the iPhone app explosion, self-driving cars will be only one
  application that emerges on top of autonomous technology, which will itself be
  a much bigger market than the smartphone market. Qasar and Alex both agree
  that robo-taxis are overly focused on by the media and that other applications
  of autonomous technology such as in trucking, last-mile delivery and
  warehouses will arrive sooner and will be both much larger and more
  consequential than robo-taxis. Alex says that he believes autonomous vehicle
  technology will be only one part of a broader “robot revolution” in society.
