  • Mike’s been reading Jordan B. Peterson’s book – 12 Rules for Life and it’s all about Order over Chaos…
  • Chris bought the Audible book and Mike lies and says you can get an “audio highlighter” now. Chris believes him, which is scary when you think about it.
  • Mike wants to see a firearms thing that helps you change guns and continue targeting on aliens if they’re attacking Earth!
  • This is how we do it! This is how we do it Downtown…
  • The Taoist symbol, Yin Yang is an order vs chaos symbol. Look for the dot there, folks!
  • The point is to have one foot in each world…Neither too much chaos, nor too much order…
  • Perfect order cannot be achieved, and a garbage dump accepts everything – but it’s not pure Chaos because there is still structure and Order!
  • Chris says “Conversationally interested hypnotists” which is brilliant or just weird.
  • Mike calls Chris “Yin” and breaks into a spirited rendition of The Captain Game
  • It’s official! Chris used to play Dungeons and Dragons in Montreal. Who would have guessed?
  • Lawful Evil – Chaotic Good…strange…and with Chaotic Neutral you never know what’s going to happen…
  • Too much chaos is bad, but so is too much order. Anarchy is too much Chaos. Fascism is too much order! So is boredom.
  • A little Chaos is a good thing. It staves off too much order and boredom and staleness…
  • Mike found order through the electronic calendar.
  • Anxiety can mean too much Chaos! Too much unpredictability…
  • Start with Podcast #1 if you’ve just gotten into Brain Software. There is an arc to what we do!
  • Chris nearly says too much but is reigned-in just in time…
  • Chris invokes the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle but Mike isn’t sure why.  so he applies it to the temperature of bath water.
  • There’s Order everywhere! Even phone numbers, because you cannot call any number at random and hope to get the correct person…
  • Mike invokes Edward de Bono’s Provocative Operation and explains how chaos intrudes can create abject creativity…
  • Even our podcast is an example! There’s a structure but then we wing it by adding Chaos!
  • Chris comments on another podcast that has too much order. ..
  • There are always elements of Order in all Chaos and vice versa…
  • Chris laughs and Mike yells “Loochie!”
  • Don’t smell the dishcloth! Or most things for that matter…
  • Chris spoils the illusion of the downtown Toronto expensive studio…
  • What special thing do we do for our 100th podcast?
  • We can tell when we have a foot in each world; neither bored, nor overwhelmed.
  • Chris mentions his daughter and Mike calls her Glapotrynne, which is damn hilarious and creative and brilliant!
  • We seek some Chaos to escape from boredom. Mike says “Then they will Singh!” but Chris misses it completely.
  • Mike exposes Chris’ condescending abuse that the audience never hears…
  • Chris has heard stories…
  • Mike brought order to his life with graphotherapy! Organize those small letter Fs folks by balancing those loops. Check out our graphology video here!
  • Remember to start small when you’re adding Order to the Chaos of your life!
  • Add Chaos by getting out of the rut! Learn something new to spark your creativity…
  • Jokes reset your attention span! How cool is that? Make sure you do it every ten minutes or so…
  • Foveal vision is a RAM hog!
  • “Those who are not at threshold are willing to accept the level of Chaos in their lives.” – Mike Mandel
  • Mike starts singing Callejjonno but Chris seizes the locus of control.
  • Gotta be change, gotta be me, and gotta be now
  • You cannot be forced to go to threshold (although you can stir the pot and nudge them)
  • Don’t put a chaotic malcontent into an orderly workplace. He’ll screw up everyone else! It will lead to a level of despision…
  • Check out our Wellness Academy and change your life. It’s the stuff we do!

Empowering Question:  What is the greatest area of chaos in my life and how will I impose positive order upon it? What components of my daily life have become much too orderly and rigid and how will I open doors to a bit of creative chaos?
