Interview: Bo Bennett [0:00]
– Bo is many things: Businessman, Author, Martial Artist, Amateur Comedian, Motivational Speaker, and more!
– Does the official podcast for Toastmasters.
– After he wrote his first book “Year to Success” Donald Trump endorsed the book.
– Donald Trump’s stance on immigrants is baffling since some of his wives have been immigrants, and his hotels are built on the work of immigrants.
– Currently CEO of ‘eBookit‘ and ArchieBoy holdings.
– The current co-host of ‘The Humanist Hour‘ podcast for the AHA along with Kim Ellington.
– Bo was given a book by a co-worker, a Lee Strobel book, which made him think more about reality and skeptical thinking.
– Did some re-writes to the book and re-released it as ‘The Concept‘.
– Some people do get psychological benefits from personal prayer, like a form of meditation. Petitionary prayer is when it gets into the land of woo.
– Went to a UU Church, and others, to see if he could understand, or buy into the ‘feeling’ that many get from going to places of worship or church.
– Sunday Assembly is another great alternative to church or worship, however makes Bo, and Derek as well, uncomfortable since they are not the singing and dancing type.
– Bo is a Doctor of Social Psychology and has a project, The Psychology Of Woo.
– His new show is ‘The Dr. Bo Show‘, which he waited under he was actually a ‘doctor’ to actually start.
– Latest book is ‘Positive Humanism‘.
– You can find out more about Bo at his website ‘bobennett.com‘.
