About this episode

In this episode, B. Black discusses manipulative people, a sci-fi book, math, online business, and reflects on racism.

In today’s episode, I get into manipulative people, why I nearly made this a French episode, the sci-fi fantasy book I’m reading, and what I love about math. I also touch on putting your business online, revisit a Scarface scene, and share two moments this week where I thought about a dead white racist. LINKS Manipulative people...
