Join Adrian Walsh, a former high school history teacher who ditched the dusty textbooks for something way more useful. After years of watching students zone out during lectures, Adrian started digging into how historical patterns actually connect to modern behavior and psychology. Turns out, the same forces that caused past disasters are still playing out today — and if you know what to look for, you can spot them coming.

Adrian keeps things conversational and practical — no academic jargon, just straight talk about why people do what they do and how understanding these cycles might help you make better predictions about what's next.
