Can Kindness Bring People Together? Daniel Lubetzky Has a Plan | Really? no Really?
What does it take to build a billion-dollar snack brand and still believe kindness can change the world? On Really? No, Really?, Jason Alexander and Peter Tilden sit down with Daniel Lubetzky, the KIND Snacks founder and Shark Tank investor, for a conversation that jumps from business blunders to big ideas—and a few beard-related distractions. Lubetzky shares how a decade of mistakes led to KIND, why he named the brand in honor of his father, and how his father’s experience during the Holocaust shaped his lifelong commitment to building bridges. He opens up about living with ADHD, balancing too many projects, and the mission behind the Builders Movement, which aims to lower political polarization and help people solve problems together. There’s serious talk about entrepreneurship, media, and misinformation, plus a wonderfully unexpected debate: Can humor bring people together—or does it just depend on who’s laughing? As Lubetzky puts it, “Humor travels better than hate.” This episode first aired Nov. 5, 2024. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Future Of Alternative Energy or Another Chernobyl? | Really? no Really?
Nuclear power is back in the headlines, fueled by climate goals and the growing demand for electricity. But are we ready for a nuclear renaissance—or still carrying the fears of Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima? Jason Alexander and Peter Tilden ask nuclear engineer Dr. Leslie Dewan how reactors work, what happens to spent fuel, and whether small reactors and reopened plants can help meet the moment. They get into AI data centers, grid vulnerabilities, safety oversight, and the human decisions that can make or break even good engineering. Along the way, there’s a story from Fukushima—and Jason’s plan to send nuclear waste into space. Could nuclear energy power the future, or are we underestimating what can go wrong?

What It Takes to Get Your Dog to Westminster | Really? no Really?
What does it take to get a dog to Westminster—and what happens when the judge starts checking under the hood? Jason Alexander and Peter Tilden welcome Kimberly Calvacca, a third-generation dog show competitor, handler, and breeder, for a funny, behind-the-scenes look at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Kim explains how dogs qualify, why handlers can spend a hundred days a year at shows, and what it takes to get eight dogs ready to compete. The conversation gets into breed standards, judging, grooming, show business—and whether the whole thing is a bit of a racket. Then Jason and Peter get advice for their own dogs, with pug Tango stealing the spotlight. There’s a lot of work behind those ribbons, but Kim says the bond between handler and dog is what makes them shine: “We’re like a dance team out there.” Listen to the Show on all Podcast Apps "Really? no, Really?" https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-really-no-really-107027693/ Follow us: http://reallynoreally.com https://www.instagram.com/reallynoreallypodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/reallynoreallypodcast/ https://twitter.com/reallynoreally_ Jason's Socials: https://www.instagram.com/jalexander1959/?hl=en https://twitter.com/IJasonAlexander #jasonalexander #reallynoreally #dogshow #podcast Learn more about your ad choices.

The Unique Psychology of Auctioneering | Really? no Really?
Auctions are unique psychologically because instead of me putting your product up at a price that you determine, it's determined by the public as a way for the seller to get richer. Whether it's art, livestock or collectible toys, you'll notice that the auctioneer has a certain fast talking rhythm to the job and it's still a trade you can go to college for. Cole Morrison of the Western College of Auctioneering joins Jason and Peter on this episode of Really? no Really? to give us a closer look into the world of auctioneering.Cole is also the Montana Rookie Auctioneer of the year in 2020 and also the 2023 Montana State Auctioneer champion.

America (And the World) Is Facing A Severe Sexual Recession | Really? no Really?
If you had told us to worry about the decline of people having sex fifteen years ago, we would've thought you were crazy. But the latest sociology reports have confirmed these dramatic declines in sexual activity. Sociology Professor, Brad Wilcox, joins Jason and Peter to break down the data and explain how we found ourselves in a sex recession on this episode of the Really? no Really? Podcast. Brad explains there's a number of factors that can explain what's contributing to the decline in adult relationship and human intimacy. The digital revolution, antidepressants and other medications, MeToo, isolation from the pandemic and the economics making it difficult for younger people to move out of their parents house and to afford their own homes, Brad breaks all of this down to prove how it's the perfect storm of causes for a sex recession. The United Nations is now forecasting we're going see a global population decline this century. We'll also cover how what type of impact this has on the world population.

The conversation also confronts the human stakes of retail theft—and why chasing stolen merchandise can come at a devastating price. Plus, what helps protect your home?
