Coming up on this week\u2019s episode, the life and times of the legendary British soldier, Mad Jack Churchill.
Churchill didn\u2019t invent anything. He didn\u2019t disrupt anything. But his understanding of risk. His taking on of opportunity. His capacity to read his context, instantly understand the pros and cons, and formulate a strategy\u2026.
Mad Jack Churchill is one of the greats when it comes to taking action on the unknown. And that\u2019s because, and I will go into this in some depth during this week\u2019s episode, he brings to life the idea of the risk \u2018everyman\u2019. The idea that anyone can manage risk effectively. That every tool, every technique, ever method available to manage the unknown\u2026 Mad Jack illustrates that we all have the capacity to successfully entreat with the unknown.
Plus, dude fought the Nazis with a sword.
