In this episode Bram & Smitty discuss… whether trying to escape death might actually make us worse at living.Starting with Bryan Johnson and the longevity movement, they explore whether mortality, scarcity and surrender are essential parts of a meaningful life—and whether our obsession with extending the physical experience can pull us away from its spiritual dimension.They also explore whether believing you're lucky changes what you notice, Neville Goddard and manifestation, the ego as survival software, Rudolf Steiner's strange predictions about technology and machines, and whether freedom and equality inevitably pull in opposite directions.Across all of it sits one recurring question: how much of our experience comes from trying to control the world, and how much changes when we change the way we see it?What do you think?🔔 SUBSCRIBE TO GET NOTIFIED› https://youtube.com/@wdytnow?sub_confirmation=1› https://x.com/bramk› https://x.com/444smittyj🕑 TIMESTAMPS00:00 - Does belief create luck?07:37 - Neville Goddard and manifestation15:34 - Is the ego even real?21:52 - Bryan Johnson and defeating death27:34 - Surrendering control of death31:15 - Does scarcity make life meaningful?36:28 - When life forces you awake40:45 - Rudolf Steiner's strange predictions48:55 - Technology versus spirituality50:44 - Doomerism shapes your reality56:15 - Can we trust strange ideas?01:01:26 - Freedom versus equality01:09:34 - Control versus acceptance01:14:06 - Does everyone awaken?ℹ️ ABOUT WDYT PODCASTWDYT?
