In this episode of the Manlihood ManCast, host Josh Hatcher has a discussion with Justin Jones from the Curious Jones podcast. They delve into various topics including personal and societal challenges, the role of artificial intelligence, and the impact of upbringing and education on the next generation. The conversation also covers the balance of good and evil in the world, the effects of the pandemic on mental health, and the potential for societal change due to public dissatisfaction and awareness. Additionally, they talk about personal accountability, the importance of self-growth, and the need to challenge oneself. The dialogue wraps up with reflections on personal development, the significance of betting on oneself, and extends an invitation to the audience to engage with the diverse topics covered in 'The Curious Jones' podcast.


Justin’s podcast was recently mentioned at the very beginning of the Joe Rogan Experience, when Rogan interviews Greg Overton. Overton is an artist, and has worked with Justin Jones and his company LitZips to create custom Zippo Lighters with Overton’s art. Overton appeared on The Curious Jones Podcast, and Rogan mentions listening to the interview while practicing shooting archery targets in his backyard, and Overton gives the podcast a shout-out.
