You suggested at one point that maybe sports are just a ploy of the elites to keep the masses distracted.. I know you're a history buff, so I thought you might like this quote from Herodotus: The plan adopted against the famine was to engage in games one day so entirely as not to feel any craving for food, and the next day to eat and abstain from games. In this way they passed eighteen years -- Herodotus (Book I.94) It's from a segment on the King of Lydia's attempts to keep his countrymen subdued during a long famine.

A credible analysis of the geo-politics and a credible practical way forward - rare. I am now checking out "dynamic facilitation" dialogue. You might be interested in Marshall Rosenberg's Non Violent Communication in this context - be great to have him on the show. Excellent podcast.
