Humanity is Still Early

Delusional. Bipolar. Schizophrenic. Autistic. Narcissistic.
All the same compliment. Fortunate to get to learn some cool stuff and work with some incredible people. Our obsession with the progression of humanity is worth the cost and we have much work to do.

An unprecedented alliance.

660 episodes is no everyday feat.

90% of podcasts do not make it past episode 3.

Of the remaining 10%, 90% quit before reaching episode 20.

Only 10% of podcasts ever reach 50 episodes.

So at 660 episodes, ENDURE BEYOND has entered the top 1% of podcasts by sheer endurance — surviving the collapse points where most shows disappear.

And even though I’ve had to work 10x harder than my white counterparts to receive a fraction of the recognition, I know exactly where we stand.

By the time the world catches up to what ENDURE BEYOND represents, we won’t even want the recognition.

So keep the applause.

Keep the flowers.

Keep the chair.

Keep the table too.

The chip on my shoulder is too big for it anyway.

Thank you to the investors, listeners, supporters, and real ones who have stood with us since day one.

We are not waiting to be validated.

We are building something they will eventually have to acknowledge.
