1:41
guys, let's pick up with parts two
1:43
then. So Jordan, thank you for joining me and
1:45
for bringing the dogs along as well. They are
1:47
literally so well behaved. Second walk of the day
1:50
for them. Well, I mean, they have a
1:52
big walk in the morning normally. What
1:54
why, um, it's on the dog dog's point is probably
1:56
the title as well the book. Why?
22:00
Yeah, I would try. I try. I
22:02
try, you know, like a laptop. There is a
22:04
movement towards that though. People are starting. There are
22:07
people, I've seen a few people like, ironically, online
22:09
saying that they like, other than absolute necessity of
22:11
like, even as the coach, like bricks. Yeah, I
22:13
do think online, like, you know, I know people
22:15
who just have a YouTube. That's right. But
22:18
you know, but I also do consume a lot. I don't know. But
22:22
yeah, no, just to your point. Yeah. Game
22:26
changer. There was somebody incredibly close to
22:28
me actually, who was really
22:30
low a few years ago, like really
22:32
low. And you
22:35
know, me and Jay were just like, have
22:37
the dogs. Two months, we just gave
22:40
them the dogs. And when
22:42
I tell you that when this person came back,
22:46
they were completely different. The whole energy, the
22:48
way they held themselves, they had been walking
22:50
for hours. I literally believe
22:52
it. And these dogs have just got them out.
22:54
They've healed this person. It's like you said, it's
22:56
love. It's like most of people struggle. This is
22:58
an absence of love, either to oneself or
23:01
being surrounded by that. But I think there
23:03
is something unconditional about dogs. Like pretty much
23:05
unconditional. But when you treat them kindly, they
23:07
love. Yeah, with respect to
23:10
respect you back, man. It's like we're no
23:12
better than dogs, mate. We're not like, you
23:14
know, I've been using example of dogs to
23:16
this when I've been engaging in like, kind
23:19
of gender discussion sometimes because I get asked
23:21
a lot about men generally. And
23:23
I wonder, you know, if we
23:26
do sometimes lean into the negatives of men
23:28
a little bit too often,
23:30
because like when I was training
23:32
Mimi, you know, the
23:34
golden rule of dog training is you reward
23:36
good behaviour. You don't punish bad behaviour. Because what
23:39
happens when you punish bad behaviour is they
23:42
are aware of the repercussions.
23:44
So they accept them if they feel
23:46
like what they want is more important.
23:49
So it's like, if they know they're going
23:51
to get hit, I think I could eat
23:53
a slice of pizza and get hit. I'll
23:55
take it. But if
23:57
you if you go to the dog, oh my God, you didn't eat.
24:00
the pizza that's incredible here's a tree are
24:02
they gonna eat the pizza no you know
24:04
and I wonder if we're like we've
24:07
over complicated that basic understanding of
24:10
how people work. Do you think
24:12
men are more lost it says?
24:14
Yeah yeah I
24:16
mean I would I would
24:19
firstly I think people are more lost you
24:21
know like it's again we are we're living
24:23
in a hyper individualistic society we've totally lost
24:26
touch of community I think community is we
24:29
are in desperate need of it
24:32
there's constant division sown on on
24:35
quite reductive concepts I
24:37
think gender in some cases being one
24:39
of them you know but
24:44
I think men I think men can do
24:46
with with building up a better relationship with
24:48
themselves and understand that they can love themselves
24:50
if they'd be you know and not
24:52
be a kind of ashamed of that.
24:54
I think sometimes there's
24:56
like shame now around people being
24:59
a man can sometimes feel shameful in itself. Yeah
25:01
I think yeah look I
25:03
think life life is tough for many
25:05
people and there are many circumstances that
25:07
can that can I can
25:11
push someone into a space of desperation and that
25:13
I'm not even sure if man and woman is
25:15
the best way to even look
25:17
at that investigate that might be like you
25:20
know we live in a world that crushes a
25:22
person who doesn't have enough money to
25:24
get themselves out we live in a world
25:26
where we charge people for having no money
25:28
in the bank do you know how insane
25:30
that is it just fundamentally doesn't make sense
25:32
you are stepped on under in this in
25:34
the capitalist system if you aren't fortunate enough
25:37
to get yourself just above water you know
25:39
I mean so yeah I think in those
25:41
environments there'll be all types of factors that
25:43
contribute to people acting up and
25:47
yeah look I really hope about this stuff all the time because I'm
25:49
interested you know one
25:53
example of how love could be an
25:55
antidote and of course I say this I put
25:57
this on my tiktok actually but I say this
25:59
with a caveat that it will seem ridiculous in
26:01
the context of modern society. But yes, there are
26:03
some, I guess, more
26:08
communities that have held traditions
26:10
for a long time. That,
26:13
for example, if someone, if
26:15
a man in the village steals something, he's
26:18
not punished for stealing, he's taken into the middle
26:20
of the village, surrounded by
26:22
the other members of the community, and
26:24
they tell him what they love about
26:27
him until he cries, until
26:29
he's brought back in the line, because they
26:31
believe that that person is just out of
26:33
alignment. They weren't born to damage their community.
26:36
They had just been brought out of alignment,
26:38
and they're brought back in emotionally. Now, obviously,
26:40
it seems extreme, but like I'm saying, we
26:42
live in a punishment-based society. How's that working
26:44
for us? Yeah, well, that's- Josh and then
26:46
it asks people, how is that working? Yeah,
26:49
that's the point, isn't it? Does it work
26:51
well? And I genuinely hear people's answer to
26:53
our punishment-based society is to make the punishment
26:55
worse. That's the answer is, yes,
26:57
you know, people behave more if you just gave them
27:00
more of a bad punishment. Like, come on, man. It's
27:02
in the fabric of our, we've
27:05
fucked with the fabric of humanity. So
27:08
we've come to the end of part two. I guess, a
27:10
question I have just from, you know, from the perspective of
27:12
you now, all the kind of work you've done, therapy,
27:15
but also experiences and stuff as well, what
27:17
would you say to someone that is perhaps
27:19
amongst chaos, or perhaps even amongst darkness, who
27:21
is running that kind of wheel of just
27:23
trying to exist, but deeply is going through
27:25
a lot? What would you
27:27
give us, like, a message of hope, but also perhaps how
27:30
to approach that now? Where
27:32
to start? I honestly think if
27:34
people are going through chaos, you just gotta walk every day. You
27:37
gotta get outside and walk. Go outside. Try
27:40
and drink lots of water. There's six tent
27:43
poles, I'll talk about these until the day
27:45
I die. I
27:47
learned about these on a thing called the bridge, a
27:50
course called the bridge run by Donal Lancaster. And
27:53
the six tent poles are solitude
27:56
and community in equal
27:58
measure, creativity. nature,
28:00
sleep, nutrition and
28:03
exercise. Exercise. They're pretty
28:06
solid. And genuinely, if you're
28:09
feeling out of sorts, have a look
28:11
at those six tempos and ask yourself
28:14
genuine, like realistically. There's the first solitude
28:16
and community in equal measures are really
28:18
powerful. Yeah. A lot of
28:20
people can't be alone. But
28:22
equally some people, I'd say
28:24
particularly, I think kind of may
28:26
struggle to make sure that you
28:29
are actually seeking community. Yeah. My
28:31
move is towards solitude. I'm
28:34
probably on my own too much. Yeah. To
28:36
be honest. And then to the point where then
28:38
you're going and being with other people and new
28:40
people feels scary. Scary. Yeah.
28:43
Totally. It's a problem for me, but I'm
28:45
working on it. I'm working on it. But we'll come down to part
28:47
two there. We will come back to the photo I mentioned at the
28:49
end of part one and part three. So guys, we'll see you all
28:52
very soon. Thank you. To

29:26
