The Rational Ape

 
Picture
67th episode from INPOTM to The Last Heretik. To be more accurate, this is the 2nd episode under the new name The Rational Ape.

INTRODUCING THE RATIONAL APE PODCAST

We are once again changing the name of the show, from The Last Heretik to The Rational Ape. I think that we've out-grown The Last Heretik and it has (quickly) became dated. As such, I decided to rebrand the show. For what we do and what we talk about, I do think that The Rational Ape is a more apt name.
At the time of this writing, we're now on it's 4th episode under the name The Rational Ape.

FIND THE RATIONAL APE

The Rational Ape could be found on iTunes, Stitcher, Podbean, Spotify, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, and (of course) through this website. Please subscribe. And while you're at it, please leave The Rational Ape a 5 star review! Please, only 5 or 4 star review. ;-)

The Rational Ape is a philosophy podcast where everything can be talked about rationally. It is hosted by yours truly, Pong Lizardo. In each episode we'll talk about a variety of topics through the lens of reason and rational though. If you're tired of low octane thinking, then this podcast is for you.

A Book That Will Change Your Life: The New Trading For A Living

 
​THE NEW TRADING FOR A LIVING by Alexander Elder is definitely a book that I would recommend as the best book to read when it comes to investing in the stock market! As a small DIY investor Trading For A Living provided me with great insights about the market. And definitely changed my trading life!

As an actively practicing psychiatrist and trader Alexander Elder emphasizes the importance of psychology in the market in this book. He ties crowd psychology, the investor's psychology (your psychology), and technical analysis on trading stocks. The results are illuminating. It makes a lot of sense to learn how crowd psychology is connected with the markets as the markets is nothing more but a collection of people trading stocks back and forth around the world.
​Trading For A Living does a wonderful job demystifying and making sense out of charts and graphs that would otherwise be meaningless numbers to an ordinary person.

A Book That Will Change Your Financial Life: The Wealthy Barber

 
​THE WEALTHY BARBER by David Chilton is a good book to read about managing your personal finance. This book was first recommended to me by a friend. This is where I really started being aware of the principles of money, not that I wasn't but knowing something and having someone else vocalize what you know solidifies that which you knew all along.
This book is an easy read. Unlike other financial books, David Chilton wrote The Wealthy Barber in a story/ Q&A-like format between the characters. He sets the story in Canada where you have a group of friends seeking financial advice to improve their personal finances. They found their advice in the least likely place... in a barber shop.

You'll find that the advice is easy to follow because the characters vocalize the financial concerns of most people that you might also likely have. Then the wealthy barber addresses those concerns and gives you sound financial advice.

3 Realities of Podcasting That I Learned… The Hard Way!

 
For beginners, there is no shortage of advice online. Not to mention the unlimited choice for the “proper” equipment to buy. I wish I had known what I know now about podcasting, I would’ve save a lot of time, energy, and not to mention money. So after 1 year of podcasting, I want to share what I learned so hopefully you could avoid the mistakes I made.
The Realities of Podcasting by Pong Lizardo
Choosing the best mic is like choosing wands, “The wand chooses the wizard, Mr. Potter.” as Mr. Ollivander would say.

​REALITY #1: The “Best” Podcasting Mic Chooses You

Choosing the best podcasting microphone is like choosing wands, “The wand chooses the wizard, Mr. Potter.” as Mr. Ollivander would say.

A lot of focus is given to this one piece of equipment. A lot of mics are also marketed as “podcasting”, “broadcasting”, “live” etc. As a beginner, I bought into the hype. I cycled through a lot of mics from the Blue Yeti, to AKG D5 to the Rode Procaster. NONE WORKED FOR ME!
Popular mics such as the Rode Procaster tend to work for most users and recording conditions. That’s why it’s popular. So I went for that. Unfortunately, it made my voice sound nasal and dark (picks up background noise as well). The AKG D5 made my voice muddier than it already is. The Yeti picked up every noise in the environment and made me sound like a dog lapping water from a bowl while podcasting. It’s like I don’t have thick walls.
