Why Is The News So Stressful?

Here is the first of (hopefully) many videos going forward - the Scenario Exploder introduction!

I've written two books on the topic of the US federal government collapse at this point. While I wish things were different, the reality is that books really are more something that you should do after breaking into the public consciousness, not as a way to break out.

Plus (not to put too fine a point on it) I'm averaging something along the lines of one book every three years. Which, honestly, isn't all that bad. But it's just too long.

So, a pivot is in order. I've been thinking a lot about how to move to video over the last year, and I think I've got a decent approach. The idea is to do make it into a game - one video covers a scenario, then I collect feedback, make a followup video, and on to the next scenario. Having a format for a video brings structure, and considering how heavy some of these topics are, bringing a bit of a lighter touch can't help.

Here's the first video for the channel - really just an introduction to the idea. The first actual scenario video should be out soon. In the meantime, please leave a comment with any ideas or thoughts!
