Coming up on this week’s episode, the life and times of the legendary British soldier, Mad Jack Churchill.

Churchill didn’t invent anything. He didn’t 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….

Mad Jack Churchill is one of the greats when it comes to taking action on the unknown. And that’s because, and I will go into this in some depth during this week’s episode, he brings to life the idea of the risk ‘everyman’. The idea that anyone can manage risk effectively. That every tool, every technique, ever method available to manage the unknown… Mad Jack illustrates that we all have the capacity to successfully entreat with the unknown.

Plus, dude fought the Nazis with a sword.
