Jordan (@JordanHarbinger) and Jason (@jpdef) are back to banter every week and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday on The Jordan Harbinger Show! If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: New beginnings! New excitement! New puppies! New levels of sleep deprivation! Here's a trick to convey contemplation rather than grumpitude if you've got one of those resting faces. How do you turn from a Fibbing Freddy into a Trustworthy Terry? How do we prepare for a show? (If you're interested in the longer story, tell us!) Do you like this show? Please tell your friends about it -- we're starting from scratch and need your help! Why should a woman who has more in common with her boyfriend and his friends be forced to hang out with the girlfriend group at social occasions? Sometimes people who are stuck in a rut don't even realize it. Is there a delicate way to tell them? There's something to be said for having the confidence to make mistakes (or dress like a kangaroo at the bar) without being embarrassed. Recommendation of the Week: Somm Quick shoutouts to Rick Higgins, Eric Onesto, and George Taylor! Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us?

Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) takes a deep dive with us into one of life's scariest constants: instability. We'll discuss why it's crucial for personal growth and how to embrace what it has to offer rather than trying to outrun its transient discomforts. "Instability isn't just a thing we need to deal with in life -- it is life." -Gabriel Mizrahi What We Discuss in This Deep Dive: No matter how stable life might seem at any given moment, we should always count on one constant: instability. Change -- whether big or small -- is inevitable. Rather than trying to avoid or expel the uncertainty we experience in moments of instability, we should be taking notes and learning from it. At its core, uncertainty is really a function of how much information we have versus how much information we want. Uncertainty makes unpleasant events more unpleasant, but it also makes pleasant events more pleasant. Why you should trust that uncertainty exists to serve you. And much more...

How Bill Browder saw and continues to see and profit from opportunities that others discount as foolish. How Russian oligarchs rip off and defraud minority and foreign shareholders. How an Interpol Red Notice could mean arrest and extradition to Russia to face torture. Who was Sergei Magnitsky, and how is Bill seeking justice for his murder by the Russian state? And much more...
