## Resource

Episode 261 of Coffee with BJ Dichter covers a Thursday pre-Ireland keynote stream, the Bitcoin Ireland conference, gratitude exercises, Discord community building, persuasion, media manipulation, Trump’s negotiation strategy, Cuba, Iran, Canada-U.S. relations, and the strange rise of alien-news theatre. BJ also digs into how reframing, daily gratitude, and systems thinking can help people move out of anxiety and into a more positive, resilient state while still analyzing politics, media, terrorism, and culture clearly.
