Water, wonderful, clean, delightfully tasting water. So good because it keeps you healthy and your family and your friends and your pets. I use an AquaTru water filter. AquaTru water filter is a four-stage reverse osmosis purification process. And the best thing I love about it is no installation or plumbing. I got it. I sent it to my home and I was able to set it up so easily and it works and it removes 15 times more contaminants than any regular filter they ever had. And the great news is the filters are affordable and long lasting. You don’t change in every two or three months. They’ll last from six months, maybe even two years. And the result of that is that one set of filters will give you over 4,000 bottles of water. That’s less than three cents a bottle. Today, my listeners, to the joy of living, you’re gonna receive 20 % off. That’s right, 20 % off any Aqua True Purifier. Enter the code JOY at checkout. Go to AquaTru.com

[10.00] The Birth of Uvolution and George’s Wake-Up Call

• George introduces “Uvolution” as a purpose-driven community designed to help people help each other.
• The idea was sparked after George suffered a heart attack in 2012, prompting him to reassess his legacy.
• What began as a personal letter to his daughter Alexandra evolved into his first book, “Seize Your Destiny.”
• The emotional response from a stranger calling George “the father I never had” validated his new life mission.
• He realized the world his daughter would grow into was different from the one he grew up in.
• George sees his work not as mere reflection, but as preparation for an unknown and rapidly shifting future.

• George discusses the coming singularity, a point where machine intelligence will surpass human intelligence.
• He cites Kurzweil’s prediction of 2029 and describes this moment as the most important event in human history.
• After the singularity, an “intelligence explosion” will rapidly and exponentially increase AI capabilities.
• The benefits could include global abundance: food, housing, clothing, and holographic personal assistants.
• The risk lies in the word “if” – if we harness it properly, we could create a second enlightenment.
• But if we fail to guide it ethically, we may spiral into dystopia.
• Barry brings up emotional intelligence (HI) versus artificial intelligence (AI), sparking reflection on humanity’s role.
• George acknowledges we must embrace mindset shifts and become leaders who run toward challenges.

[26.00] Microlearning, Mindset, and the Role of the Millennial Samurai

• George explains how he structured his book “Millennial Samurai” for short attention spans with microlearning chapters.
• He introduces the idea that future success hinges on adaptable, forward-thinking mindsets.
• Social media and tech are rewiring how young people absorb information, demanding a new learning model.
• George says we must meet young people where they are—on their phones—with concise, powerful lessons.
• He presents himself as a bridge between generations: a Millennial Samurai guiding young warriors of thought.
• Barry emphasizes the global, curious, and hungry nature of their podcast audience.

• Mindset becomes the foundation for all future learning, adaptation, and leadership.

[34.00] Multiplicity of AIs: The Battle of Philosophies and Biases

• George reveals that AI will not be singular—every country and corporation is building their own version.
• Each AI will reflect its creator’s worldview: China’s will be sanitized, America’s idealistic, others pragmatic.
• Barry points out that the media narrative already shows how biased interpretations shape realities.
• George discusses AI agents, custom-trained on individual voices, opinions, and values—like his own.
• He emphasizes that even our subconscious is filled with unvetted data; AI will inherit this same complexity.
• The input we give these systems will shape their moral compass—or lack thereof.
• Barry calls back to cultural references like “Sound of Music” and “Clockwork Orange” to highlight dualities in human nature.
• This diversity of inputs becomes the witches’ brew from which AI will learn and evolve.

[42.00] Longevity, Rebirth, and the Sacred Unknown

• George shares how scientists are using biometric data and computing power to recreate human organisms.
• He cites Yuval Noah Harari’s belief that humans can be replicated using data and algorithms.
• Scientists have already cloned mice using skin cells; human application is not far off.
• Barry points out that living longer is meaningless unless people can live well and with dignity.
• George envisions potential for medical miracles: curing paralysis, extending life, and even 3D-printing new beings.
• These breakthroughs raise ethical, religious, and societal questions about what it means to be human.
• Barry calls the moment sacred as much as it is scary; a profound spiritual reckoning awaits.
• George’s final hope is that Uvolution becomes a place where the emotionally and spiritually evolved can guide humanity forward.
