45: (Economics) - Adam Smith - The Wealth of Nations - Part 1
Sunday Dec 13, 2020
Sunday Dec 13, 2020
Good evening and welcome to the podcast where you Sleep... with Josh. Tonight, I will be embarking upon a journey into the dry, dry, topic of economics by reading well known pieces of economic theory and literature from famous economists. A good place to start is in book, The Wealth of Nations, which was published in 1776 by the Scottish economist and moral philosopher, Adam Smith. It is a fundamental piece of economic theory that introduced the concept of free-market economics. Obviously, not a perfect theory of everything economics, but for it's place in history, extremely influential, and for the purposes of this podcast... very boring.
Now sit back, relax, and open your mind to theories on free markets, division of labor and productivity, because you'll get tired of this podcast... guaranteed.

44: (Chess) - Capablanca - Chess Fundamentals - Part 1
Monday Dec 07, 2020
Monday Dec 07, 2020
Good evening and welcome to the podcast where you Sleep... with Josh. Tonight, with the resurgence of popularity for the timeless game known as Chess, due in large part to Netflix's very popular and excellent original series, The Queen's Gambit, I've decided to start playing chess... again. But this time, I might as well take the time to actually learn it through the words of great chess players in history. One of which, Jose Raul Capablanca, wrote a book called Chess Fundamentals in 1921. Now, all I need is a functioning addiction to tranquilizers and I'll be a Grandmaster in no time. That's... how that works right?
Now sit back, relax, and start playing chess on the roof of your ceiling because you'll get tired of this podcast... guaranteed.

Monday Nov 23, 2020
Good evening and welcome to the podcast where you Sleep... with Josh. Tonight, due to the recent announcement by Instagram that they will be updating their Terms of Use agreement with their users on December 20th, 2020, I decided that now would be the appropriate time to review it.
Instagram, a photo sharing app owned by Facebook, has over 1 billion active monthly users and as a platform, has spawned the careers of many social media influencers. I, am no better, and will happily offer up my soul upon the alter of mass social media clout. I'm doing this... for the gram. hashtag... blessed. Now sit back, relax, and close your eyes because you'll get tired of this podcast... guaranteed.

41: (Philosophy) - Plato - The Republic - Part 2
Monday Nov 16, 2020
Monday Nov 16, 2020
Good evening and welcome to the podcast where you Sleep... with Josh. Tonight, as political tensions continue to escalate in the United States as President Trump refuses to conceded to President Elect Joe Biden, I want to revisit Plato's a Socratic dialogue, "The Republic". Written around 375 BC, in the cradle of western democracy, Athens, Greece, it focused on justice, the order and character of a just city-state, and the "just man". I feel like we can all agree, that a just man would put their country and the welfare of their fellow citizens over their pride and ego. Now sit back, relax, and close your eyes because you'll get tired of this podcast... guaranteed.

40: (History) - In Flanders Fields & Armistice of Nov. 11th, 1918
Thursday Nov 12, 2020
Thursday Nov 12, 2020
Good evening and welcome to the podcast where you Sleep... with Josh. Tonight, since it is November 11th, in honor and respect of veterans and active armed service members on this day, Remembrance Day in Canada and other Commonwealth nations, as well as Veteran's Day in the United States, I will be reading the classic poem, "In Flander's Fields", written by Canadian Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae during World War 1.
I will then be reading the Armistice of November 11th, 1918, which was signed between the Allied Nations and Germany at 5 am in the Forest of Compiegne and would take effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918. This armistice would ultimately end the First World War which took the lives of around 20 million military and civilian souls and injure or wound some 20 million more. Tonight, we remember all those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for their country and honor those who continue to do so.
Now sit back, relax, and close your eyes because you'll feel grateful for the military service of your compatriots... guaranteed.

There will be no life and death situations, there will be no love triangles, and there will be no unrealistically attractive doctors and nurses in this podcast... just me... Josh. Now sit back, relax, and close your eyes because you'll get tired of this podcast... guaranteed.

Good evening and welcome to the podcast where you Sleep... with Josh.

Gardening is a quiet, calming activity and requires significantly less vote count statistics and watching electoral map stress... so... relax.
