#049 – Random Rant Tony Ortiz

In this episode I speak about UFC 199 (one of the unexpected-best cards I’ve ever seen), and a few documentaries & movies that I’ve recently seen: Citizen Four which is a Biographical Documentary about NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden and when he first reached out to and met Journalist Glenn Greenwald.  Where to Invade Next: a Documentary film by Michael Moore, where he ‘invades’ other countries to steal their good ideas in relation to health, education, work, etc.  The Martian with Matt Damon where he plays an Astronaut that is accidentally stranded on Mars (yea, the Planet) and has to try to survive with limited food and resources.  Lastly, I speak about an epic Benjamin Franklin prank where he passed himself off as a mid aged widow and also about a book I just finished reading (listening to): Mindset by Carol Dweck.
