The day before New Year's Eve I decide to sit down and have an honest discussion with myself about how I did with money, relationships, physical fitness, podcasting, etc... in 2025.
Happy New Year's from the Bart DZ Podcast! Here's a new workout playlist for when you hit the gym in the new year!

Can you imagine a world where teams of AI robots do their own coding--on themselves? Or creating their own simulated societies full of nothing but geniuses? Entire planets that serve as giant computers, while Earth remains an abandoned nature preserve, telling the story of species that burned brightly before quickly vanishing? Yes, this episode is basically me recording myself while using Chat GPT, but if you like this kind of futuristic tech stuff you may enjoy this episode.

26-year-old woman set on fire on a Chicago CTA train, UK woman pays a Florida man to kill her for a violent sexual fetish, two men get caught planning to take over a Haitian island to enslave its women and children--What's it all mean? America is becoming less and less safe at an alarming rate.....and almost nothing is being done to stop it.
As the going gets tough I turn to 'Winning: The Unforgiving Race to Greatness' by Tim Grover for inspiration. Tim Grover is known for working with athletic giants like Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Dwayne Wade, amongst others. (Sorry if the audio cuts out here and there--currently working out some bugs while I switch to a better audio editing program).
