TOP MEN? Why Do We DISTRUST The EXPERTS And SCIENTISTS
Why do we see scientists, engineers, and learned people as evil? And instead treat as gospel the opinions and desires of those who would manipulate us?
Once upon a time, we took humans to the moon and back. To this day, highly educated women and men around the globe continually make tremendous advances in medicine, climate, and all things human. And yet, we now shun them. Disbelieve them. Why? Because we don't immediately understand what they've devoted their lives to learning? Because someone posted a meme ... or a tweet ... that had a conspiratorial slant?
There was a time when we revered doctors, scientists, engineers, and other educated individuals ... and institutions. It's time we returned. But first, we need to grapple with the question ... why did we stop?
The RICK HIGGINS Dialogue
Episode Nine - "We Have Top Men Working On It"
Brody: Where is the Ark?
Maj. Eaton: I thought we'd settled that. The Ark is somewhere very safe.
Jones: From whom?
Brody: The Ark is a source of unspeakable power and it has to be researched!
Maj. Eaton: And it will be, I assure you, Doctor Brody, Doctor Jones. We have top men working on it right now.
Jones: Who?
Maj. Eaton: Top... Men...
HUMANS FOR A BETTER HUMANITY
If one sees a misdeed or wrongdoing against humanity, it is our moral obligation to use our voices to call it out. If we see opportunity, we must take it. If we see a need, we must fill it. We have to end our collective silence. End the hate and apathy around us. Together, we are the solution.
The RICK HIGGINS Dialogue is not a political commentary show. We do not preach the good word of one party over another. Everyone is equal as far as affiliation, but diverse in their support of all things human. We bring to light those who would put corporations, greed, and self-interest above the growth of humanity. We celebrate those who step up and do wonderful things. And we explore opportunities that can help us all. Not in a political way. Just in a human one.

Why Do We Shun MENTAL HEALTH? It's Just Another Form Of Illness, Right?
Why do we focus on physical health, but shun mental? Why all the stigma on fixing the organ at the top of the body?
A little different type of episode. No Donny or Republican bashing at all. Not even in jest. Some topics shouldn't be diluted, I suppose. We just take a look at why the topic of mental health seems to fall between "good people don't talk about such things" and "that dude is bats*** crazy". Illness is illness, no matter what part of the body is affected.

Why Do OUR POLICE FORCES Look Like An INVADING ARMY? The 1033 Program, That's Why.
Do you remember Mayberry RFD, with Andy Griffith? Small town sheriff, didn't even carry a gun? Remember the old stereotype of Big City police? Just some big galoot of an Irishman twirling a baton while offering up sage advice?
Skip to today. Picture your local police officer. What do you envision? Enough armament strapped to their belt to stop a small incursion? Picture a few of them side by side ... what do you imagine? Shields, helmets, and maybe a tank in the background?
Tanks? Yes, tanks! Are we living in ungoverned Afghanistan now? When did this all change anyway?

Welcome To THE DIALOGUE
Before you get all excited about yet another bash-the-republicans show, that ain't exactly what we do. Sure, we consider the pantheon of evil each and every episode, but the idea isn't to just state what's wrong. It's also to dig deep into the why.
And most importantly to start figuring out ways to do better. I would absolutely love it if we all found freaking nirvana and I talked myself out of this gig. I'd be sitting on a beach with a pina over-alcoholed colada in my hand if we can do that.
So ... The Dialogue ... diving into what ails us. ALL of us. Learning some real details. And taking our baby steps towards that happy day when my drinking becomes a career choice. Come join us.

The SORRY STATE Of EDUCATION Around The Globe (AND HERE!)
How to describe this episode? Do I lead off making fun of The Donald and his minion Betsy DeVos? Do I laud the incredible works and thinking of Sir Ken Robinson? Or do I discuss the abject horror and sheer wrongness that is the world's obsession against educating girls?
Yes. I think I'll just do all of that. Ready?

PS: Did you know there is a direct linkage between educating girls and young women ... and reducing emissions that fuel climate change? Seriously. I didn't know either.

IMMIGRATION Does Not Equate To CRIME - Here's The PROOF
Immigrants are ruining this country! Crime! Terrorism! It’s what 'everyone' says, right? We need to close our borders! It’s god’s truth, right? Right?
It is true ... isn’t it?
Politicians have been using fear as an election tool since the first caveman promised fire for everyone. And our current president has made it into an art form. He has gone after the LGBT community, Muslims, Mexicans, blacks, and everyone else not a native-born white and painted them each as a threat in one way or the other.
So what's the real truth behind immigration and crime? Let's find out.
The RICK HIGGINS Dialogue
Episode Five - "Illegal Crime?"

8:09 Just The Facts Ma'am
9:40 Election Time
"All great truths begin as blasphemies"
~ George Bernard Shaw
Crime and criminals. Everyone's favorite subject, especially Hollywood and right wing conservatives. One side creates murder mysteries, and the other asks "was he illegally here?" when told of a misdeed ... like a legal crime is somehow less illegal.
I wanted to do this episode because that question ... asking about immigration status in the case of an offense ... just infuriates me. Because the great, great, great majority of crimes in the US are committed by folks who are allowed to be here. Who are born here. Where's the outrage for homegrown baddies? So I needed to investigate and report.

How to STOP BEING a REPUBLICAN? The Lessons of Hitting ROCK BOTTOM!
I was born and raised with certain "Southern Values". I vividly remember discussions during elementary school recess when we were talking about the south rising again. We also talked about a certain non-white race in a less than a positive way.
In my early adult years, I was a true-and-through Republican. I only cared about me. I looked down on the the poor as I climbed my ladder. I wouldn't have lifted a finger to help others, thinking that they should help themselves. After all, wasn't that what I was doing?
I am neither of those people anymore. I am proof that regardless of upbringing, anyone can learn. Anyone can change.

WE NEED BETTER HEALTH CARE, Not Better Insurance
Health Care, Health Insurance, Health ... whatever you want to call it. It needs help, both in "first world countries" and in developing nations. Because health isn't a national issue. It's a human one.
In this show we explore for-profit medicine, tell a tale of a group called Mask Catchers (which is helping others to help others), and we look into health care elsewhere and what giant gaps have yet to be filled. We also introduce you to Alison Thompson and her Third Wave Volunteers.
Let's try to make sense of our collective health needs, shall we?
The RICK HIGGINS Dialogue
Episode Four - HEALTH CARE, YES, HEALTH CARE
Chapters:
0:00 Welcome Champions!
2:02 Mask Catchers
7:51 Healthcare For All / Obamacare
9:33 The UK Story
12:05 Socialized Evil?
14:06 Meanwhile, Just 700 Miles Away
15:55 Wild Polio
18:03 With Sean Penn, We Are The Solution
Why this episode? Simple, I started to get away from humans. It's so easy to just bash those in office for not doing their jobs, (which I'm again going to do, but this time it's less political and more 'us' based). I wanted to get a little closer to solving things, rather than blaming things. Ish. So I did some research into what ails the world and how we can each try to fix things for all of us.
We're so wrapped up in our 'National Insurance For All' that we forget that some people in the world live in such unsanitary conditions that no amount of 'insurance' will help. So let's stop thinking about "Obamacare" and start thinking more about healthcare. For everyone.

WHAT HAPPENS ... IF? (Yes, TRUMP And His Enablers Again)
I am a pollyanna. An optimist. I always believe that things will work out and that "the system" and people will work. So imagine my surprise when real fear crept into my brain and I started asking myself ... What If? And actually believing it could happen. Let's talk about that.

We MUST Get Back Into THE PARIS CLIMATE AGREEMENT - Double Barrelled Hurricanes Anyone?
A really great "shoe" for ya. We examine our usual Villains In The News, which this week includes the complete captiluation of a major political party and a swearing of allegiance to a single (immoral) man. Dictatorship, anybody? Plus the seventh arrest of a Trump campaign official (but who's counting?).
And ... Mother Nature is our BIG STORY.
Ummm, Mom? We're really sorry. We tried to do better with the Paris Agreement, but ... well, you know ... Trump. We're going to boot him out and do better (crossing fingers and toes). So .... can we not have side-by-side hurricanes until we get our act together? Please? Mother? Can you hear us? Hello?

12:26 Together, We Are The Solution
I really enjoyed making this episode, as issues around the oceans and waters are very important to me. Climate change affects us all, and equally affects those creatures under the water that hardly anyone sees. We need to be better stewards of our collective home. This is a theme I'm sure to revisit.

Getting Our NON-LUCRATIVE VISA For SPAIN Reissued After The Covid Lockdown
I was so afraid to utter the words "I Hope", but utter them I did. On May 1st, 2020 we were supposed to be living the expat life in the El Born barrio of Barcelona Spain. Eating tapas in outdoor cafes and finishing up our paperwork to become permanent residents. Our non-lucrative visa was approved, pressed into our passports, and we were just counting the days.
And then covid hit. Spain closed its borders. Flights were cancelled. No Spain for us, and so we tried to make the best of life in Miami, never really daring to hope. Then our lawyer in Barcelona emailed us, five months later, with news that the Spanish Consulate would reissue our visa for whenever we wanted.
Which brings us right to where this video begins.

HUMANS FOR A BETTER HUMANITY
The experiment continues! Since we can't exactly test things as far as channel-wide tweaks here anymore (you're already in on the secret), we needed something else. Enter 'The RICK HIGGINS Dialogue', our latest secondary channel. Or primary, depends on how things go.
We're also starting yet another one loosely titled Nikki's Backyard Food Forest, but more on that later.
Here's the thing ... I feel a little rotten for how this channel will be using the new channel as a guinea pig, but our examination of it in no way takes away from the message of The Dialogue. If anything, this will be a case study in how others can start using their own voices. We'll all be watching and learning from a brand new offering, and maybe it will inspire you to make your voice heard as well.
THE CREATIVITY EXPERIMENT
Guess what? You are part of a recently declassified, non-government study to determine the meaning of creativity, and to discover the validity of pompous claims of easy success using online publishing platforms. You are and have been, in essence, our guinea pig. Thank you for your participation.

Is Creativity BUSINESS? Google Thinks So

There is no reason for this video to be on this channel ... except that it needs to be. For if one sees a misdeed or experiences evil, it is their moral obligation to use their voice to call it out. And I can no longer remain silent.
The Medium article I wrote that is described in this video:

Is 'STYLE' Considered Creativity?
Ready to experience some trains? Yes, I said trains. Old trains. Why? Because they made for a great backdrop to this story. And admission to the museum was only ten bucks. 🙂
The question is ... how tightly bound are creativity and style? Can you have the former without the latter? Or the reverse of that? So many questions, so many answers.

i'm so hot. (casey made me title it that)
No, I'm not Casey Neistat. Yes, that is his style of intro. No, I'm not stealing from him. I'm just ... briefly borrowing ... for the good of science.
This is a channel about creativity. What works, what doesn't, and who does it work for. So this ia a Test Subject Video. Just me blathering on about letting your inner secrets out. (Which is actually a semi-decent and important video message, if I do say so myself). But it's also to see if someone were to just mimic a successful YouTuber, would it make a damn bit of difference?
So this is that test video. And in a few weeks, we'll take a look at what, if anything, managed to happen.

KILL YOUR BABIES? This Is A Real Expression?
Journalism slang. Shortening an article that is too long to print. Named for the time, care and effort spent researching and writing said article, only to have it go to waste. A brutally painful process. Does it apply to video? Other forms of creativity?
