As usual, I avoid unquantifiable predictions. For example, these are all vague predictions for 2022:
- Emerging COVID-19 variants will jeopardize our return to normalcy
- Interest rate hikes wreak havoc in our debt-heavy world
- The global supply chain continues to strain due to unforeseen events and sky-high costs
- Geopolitical tensions cause jitters in the global markets
If you can't measure it, it can be hard to definitely say if you're right or wrong.
Here we go: It's either in podcast or video form.

During the holidays, if you can't afford to give a gift, then give blood to a stranger.
#Donateblood.
I explain why you might want to do it for selfish reasons: it's good for you, possibly.
What do you think?
Correction
In the show, I say that I'm barred for life from donating blood in the USA.
According to Rejoice Tapon, who is a US Navy Corpsman, that's dated info.
Nowadays, you can donate in the USA about one year after you've recovered from malaria.

Gary Arndt returns to the WanderLearn podcast! Near the end of 2021, we talked for 90 minutes and I've broken our talk up into 5 bite-sized podcasts!
All 5 are on this page.
Podcast #1: Memorable Podcasts
In this 28-min podcast, Gary Arndt and I talk about:
- How podcasts are the blogs of yesteryear
- Facebook customer service
- Social Media vs. Discord
- Olympics
- Everything Everywhere's most memorable podcasts
I love talking with Peace Corps Volunteers (PCV) because they offer such a unique perspective on a country. Because they're stationed in one country for two to three years, they are both insider and an outsider.
They're an insider because they usually:
- Live in villages
- Learn the local language
- Hang out with the locals so much that the locals start behaving "normally" with them
However, at the same time, a PCV they are outsiders for obvious reasons. Sometimes they can blend in. For example, a black American can blend in most of Africa.
However, the blond and blue-eyed Alicia Carter and Brandy Hart had no hope of blending into Lesotho. They were both Peace Corps Volunteers in Lesotho, a small country surrounded by South Africa.
Alicia and Brandy both extended their two-year stays because they loved it.
I ask them about their experiences in Lesotho.
At the end of the podcast, we take a quick tour of Alicia's rondoval.
