## Resource

In Episode 238 of Coffee with BJ Dichter , BJ reflects on the strange but fascinating political moment we’re living through. As global politics shift and the debate between peace through strength and peace through weakness continues, BJ encourages viewers not to get trapped in constant outrage or negativity. Instead, take a step back, recognize the absurdities of the moment, and remember to laugh along the way. From geopolitics and media narratives to cultural shifts in the West, this episode explores how perspective matters in turbulent times. BJ shares his personal outlook on the current political climate, why historical moments often look chaotic while they’re happening, and why maintaining humour and optimism might be the most rational response.
