THE REVIEWS

BE YOURSELF

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the economic side of life.

The United States of America is a nation built on the premise of being for the people, of the people, and by the people with great focus on individual freedoms, choice, and self governance. Back then, as is the case now for many, people wanted to live their lives on their own terms and pursue their own version of happiness and success.

At times, there are reasonable requests to ask that people put the greater good over their own self interests. But the bar that power brokers will use to measure these request must be high and the impact balanced, not isolated to one group. Individual freedom and choice must be sacred in a free society.

All people speak about supporting freedom, but some have different ideas of what freedom is and how absolute it should be. Depends largely if you have individualist leanings or collectivist sympathies, who are more likely exchange freedoms for a false perception of temporary comfort and security.

In this podcast episode, I discuss the need to be your authentic self and how to improve performance when you do not achieve you goals using football as an example. Also, I discuss the official beginning of the 2024 presidential cycle and more. Please listen below.

EMBRACING DIVERSITY

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to another year of the Christopher Peter Review!

America is the most diverse nation in the world. More people legally migrate to the United States than any other nation in the world. Our diversity is a strength that allows us to attain supply our economy with the best and the brightest.

There can be a move to enhance our openness to diversity without fostering an environment of racial tension, hyper-hysteria on demographics, and myopic view on where discrimination comes from. We can move towards inclusiveness that is actually fair to all parties while not creating resentment and anger.

In this podcast episode, I discuss issues that impact our race relations and offer ideas to embrace diversity in a rational manner.

THE ULTIMATE MERITOCRACY

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to another year of the Christopher Peter Review! I thank you for your viewership last year and hope that you continue to join us this year!

Sports provide such a finite ending towards the combined effort, strategy, belief, and support of groups of players, coaches, leaders, and fan bases. Either you win and feel success or you lose and need to rethink your approach and reason to be in the arena.

All the while, the games take place in a special economic system that employs millions, both inside the teams and many more who may never step foot in a stadium. There is no business like sports business. Show business is good as well. But sports are the only proven commodity to never flop or lose value.

In this podcast episode, I look at the business of sports and why we love the industry like no other. Then, I take part in a conversation regarding current events and whether some ancillary parts of the industry are truly helpful.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to another year of the Christopher Peter Review! I thank you for your viewership last year and hope that you continue to join us this year!

The new year offers us the opportunity to reset and get back on track in terms of our overall goals and objectives. For instance, if we are not at our desired weight, we use the start of the new year to start the path towards that end goal.

Our years are defined by the big moments and events that we remember through time. Different outlooks per person. In this podcast episode, I take a high level look at what our societal resolutions should be, offer a friendly reminder of who we need to be, and more.

TOP CONTENDERS

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review.

Before we close out the year, I decided to look at where we stand with the upcoming election to choose our next president. Besides the two controversial frontrunners.

Please experience this podcast episode below where I also discuss the potential for either Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis.

THE BIG DEAL

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review.

History does not always repeat itself. For Dodgers fans, they hope that the team can continue to defy what has been somewhat of a course for the sport of baseball in terms of big signings not really performing to expectations after the record contracts.

The NBA wanted to emulate the in season competitions that take place in global soccer with its inaugural In-Season Tournament. Interesting concept but I discuss an important difference and what I hope they might be able to do in the future.

Please experience this podcast episode below where I also discuss the sad state of my favorite football team and bad political precedent impacted by sports.

CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review.

Even in the most challenging times, I always believe that we must hold out hope that our tomorrows will be better than our todays. Even if that hope appears to be false hope. There is always the chance to convert adversity into opportunity. Just more obstacles and constraints.

Many American entrepreneurs have found ways to turn misfortune or difficult circumstance into the foundation for some of the greatest institutions in our society. Innovation is generally borne out of necessity. Depending on how the economy turns in the next crucial year, many will have to show the same resolve and ingenuity as the past generation had to.

APPRECIATION

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review.

Despite all the challenges in our society, the adversity in our personal lives, and the chaos we experience each and every day, there are still many things to be thankful for. Even when our life or careers are not going as planned, we still can appreciate our blessings and not overlook the good.

It is very easy to not see the forest through the trees because we see what we want to see. Appreciate what you have accomplished even though there is more to go. Be appreciative of those around you even if they are not your definition of perfect.

Please experience this podcast episode below where I discuss appreciation and recent current events.

CURRENT EVENTS

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review.

What is the right side of history? Supporting the side that prevailed in their conflicts? Or is it standing on the moral side of an argument? The saying to the victors comes the spoils and the ability to write history. But also the good will always prevail against bad over time. Supporting the moral side and ensuring they are the prevailing side is the being on the right side of history.

There is so much conflicts in our world after a surprising four year calm. War in Ukraine, Israel, and other conflicts worldwide. Once again, the United States is competing with our global allies against our collective foes to ensure that democracy, freedom, and sovereignty prevail in the face of oppression, terrorism, and radical ideology.

Please experience this podcast episode below where I discuss recent current events and more.

THE REAL ISSUES REAL SOLUTIONS

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review.

The purpose of having political debates is to have a forum, where political candidates can introduce themselves to the audience and pool of prospective voters and offer ideas on how to solve the problems they choose to solve. Right? Rarely do you really see a candidate want to address every issue out there. Rightfully so?

For many people, it is easy to point out what is wrong with society. Inflation is harming the economic outcomes of our households, the viability of many businesses, and the financial markets. Crime is plaguing our communities and making some of our great cities unlivable and no longer suited for business operations. Illegal immigration is draining resources for local government, putting millions of households at risk, and posing a national security threat. But what are the solutions that will actually work?

Please experience this podcast episode below where the top issues facing our society is discussed and potentially viable solutions are offered.
