READING & WATCHING

What I'm consuming, and what I think you should too.

A working list of what's been shaping how I think — books I'm reading or have just finished, YouTube videos I'd recommend, podcasts I subscribe to, articles I keep coming back to. Updated as things change. If something is here, it's because I genuinely think it's worth your time.

If you've recently read or watched something you think I should see, send it. I always look.
