Enjoyed the film and series and so did my wife and daughter!
Well that was lovely thing to stumble across! Thank you Ben, and Sir Alexander I love your books, they are such a balm. (I have a few books too - (not an understatement!) and the 'what if' that prompted one them was what if one huge shop sold everything - it's a dystopian mystery with a happy ending.
I feel a flare starting. The fatigue and morning stiffness tipped me off a week ago. The plantar fasciitis started in both feet today. Even my knee has started to ache today and buckled on me walking up the stairs. Havent had knee pain before. Lower back is so sore. Im allergic to nsaids after so many years of taking them. This disease can suck sometimes. Been suffering for ten years , i have psoriasis in my toe nails and went all those years with no dr realizing what was going on. No rash for me. Waiting to hear back from my rheumatologist 🤞 thanks for sharing your story, makes me feel not so alone in my pain
It came full circle with Lillian returning back to the job she’s so good at.
I watched your youtube channel and I see that you are making amazing content. I really like your videos. Even your audience also likes it, But you deserve more audience on your channel. I analysed your youtube channel and I see that your SEO (Search engine optimization) score is very low. That's why you can't grow up on youtube. I am a professional digital marketer and expert in youtube SEO. After SEO your video will rank on search engines and you will get a targeted audience on your channel. SEO helps videos to get reach. That's a youtube algorithm. Let me know if you want to know more about it.
Great interview Nathan!!! A plesure to watch. Diolch ar fawr
Thanks for watching!
So glad I found this, fantastic interview 😊
Cool story... wrong, but cool. Samurai translates as 'warrior' or 'knight'. Who needs books when we have Google? 😂
In service of others and the heartfelt pursuit of mastery!
I can confirm the weather has changed 😂🇬🇧 brilliant conversation gentlemen 💙
Thank you so much for having David on your brilliant show Ben! We hope it resonates with your community.
The most refreshing podcaster I’ve heard. In a world flooded with political and lifestyle podcasts it’s great to hear people just talk about life and experiences. Subscribed.
I,hate,raw,wwe
fantastic Pod - i resonate with a lot of what Helena said: hyperfocus, sensitivity to sound, Rejection sensitive dysphoria, thriving in good vibes - loved these thoughts: "Our brains are wired for interest rather than information, so I can learn absolutely loads in a really short space of time about something I’m interested in." "I never wanted it to become an excuse for not succeeding, so I literally pretended it didn’t exist and almost forgot about it." I can hear things that others can’t, and they physically hurt my brain" "In an emergency scenario, an ADHD brain goes cool-I know how to cope with this-because it’s used to processing lots of high-priority information."
Love this Cody!
ah love all those topics 🚀
Enjoyed this insigt into such an excellent Design Resource, great work Katy.
This interview flowed so well. Great rapport with each other made for an interesting conversation. The internet needs more positivity like this.
Bronwyne seems like a wonderful, genuine person and her father has carved a place in wrestling history which will never be equalled.
because everyone is a bunch of thieves ...
This is exactly what I needed to listen today, especially the part about what role business has to play 🤩
Although I also loved the bit about the Polish women and their middle fingers 😆
using scrap paper as toilet paper to save money
She is so beautiful 😍
At 60 years old!!!🤩
His book UNTYPICAL is highly recommendable. Being a late diagnosed autistic myself (at going on 62 in 2020), I really appreciate and enjoy the way Pete is communication what being autistic in a neurotypical world means. Oh, and he's got a great sense of humour, too! 🙂
Great short
Thanks very much!
What a fantastic conversation, Ben. I resonate with everything you discussed. I do agree this year is the year of coming together and action 🙏 Thank you for the inspiration. ❤
Thanks so much @mindcraftpeace!
What a beautiful discussion. I was fortunate to see and hear Sir Terry Waite speak in person while I was working on my undergrad at Culver-Stockton College in Canton, MO. I do not recall the exact year but it was between 1995 and 1998. As a young man, my ears heard a story of fortitude and strength and perseverance. I clearly remember him and he is a true giant amongst men, in deeds and height. At 48 years of age, I hear a story that paints a life of reflection. One in which great personal sacrifice bore the fruit of a true empathy for his fellow man that few people will ever attain. My character is certainly underdeveloped in that regard. This is one of those unique situation where comparison is not the thief of joy. It is inspiring to hear the capacity for positive change that is possible even after a life changing event so… life changing that nobody would begrudge him for bowing out of society for a peaceful life of reclusion. What would I do in his shoes? What could I do in my shoes with his outlook? For today, I will hug my kids extra tight and tell them I love them. ❤ Thank you very much for facilitating this discussion.
Terrific interview, very informative. Enjoyed the interviewer’s relaxed style, question posed naturally, without interruptions or any attempts to make it about him. Bronwyne is, as always, well-spoken and refreshingly positive. The reconciliation between father and daughter is a warm tale, which seems rare in the world of professional wrestling. I also thoroughly enjoy the efforts she puts into posting them rare photos of Dynamite’s storied wrestling career. Absolute best of luck to the both of you.
Thank you SO much! A huge amount of work goes into creating our podcast episodes, so to receive feedback like this means the world to us. Really appreciate you taking the time to check out the show; Bronwyne was such a great guest and it was an honour to speak with her about her late father. Hope you can subscribe and check out other conversations too!

Me seeing the thumbnail: That looks like Zack Ryder. I swear all these guys look the same. Me after a google search: Oh. That's Zack Ryder.
He didnt leave WWE. He got released because he fucking sucks lol.
Thanks again for having me on the show.

Thanks Ryan, for all you're doing with the ABTY community. Inspired by you, brother!
Pete is such an interesting person to learn from. Happy to see him on the Podcast.
Thanks for watching! We're so pleased to welcome Pete onto the podcast, and thank him for all of his insight and perspective,
The neurodiversity movement has watered medical conditions down to common traits in at least a third of the population. Pete has admitted no clinically significant features since childhood. Was able to cope with a long career that has a high burnout rate. Teaching requires high use of communication, social & executive functioning skills. Needing to lay down for an hour after a talk is very little impairment. The reason autism has shot up is because the neurodiversity movement has captured those with little to no impairment, so don't actually meet criteria. Even though some claim to be diagnosed. Pete has said he masked for decades so no one noticed anything, including himself. That is very little impairment. Or no clinically significant impairment. Career burnout with no clinically significant history across all environments should not be diagnosed as autism. Neurodiversity advocates are making money from this fad. "Masking as neurotypical" for decades is a shoddy excuse by neurodiversity ideology to claim as identity an diagnosis that at it's core has social & communication impairment. It's currently trendy to call any issues that develop later (like mild anxiety), autism. Update: Well I'll be. One of the reviewers, "Adam", on Goodreads has plagarised most of this comment, yet given a 5 star review. Too weird. The plagiarized part has since been deleted after I pointed this out.
NONSENSE. Period.
Thank you Ben. A great conversation 🙏
So pleased you had a chance to listen, Katerina - thank you! And thank you to Pete for this open and illuminating conversation.
It was a great conversation. Thank you for having me! 😊
