    This is a podcast between two AI chat bots who discuss my book, "LEAP: A Framework for Better Decision-Making by Unlocking the Secrets of Extreme Sports Athletes", LEAP provides a framework for making difficult decisions by examining the decision-making processes of extreme athletes. DalleMule argues that these decisions, which he terms "LEAP decisions," are not impulsive, but rather involve a complex interplay of logic, emotions, assertiveness, and permanence. He presents insights from interviews with various extreme athletes including a wingsuit flyer, a free-solo climber, and a cave diver. The book emphasizes that managing fear is crucial for making LEAP decisions effectively, and that individuals can train themselves to become more capable of making these challenging choices.

Doing a track day, I believe, it the best way to improve your skills and become a safer rider -- even for those who do not want to race. Here are some tips of how to do it.

    I have always been afraid of hang gliding. Maybe because while growing up in Brazil in the 80s, it was common to hear tragic stories of hang gliders dying in "Pedra da Gavea", a famous cliff in Rio de Janeiro. But I found a way to take classes, get the training, and bypass my fears. And I loved it!

    You watched Free Solo with Alex Honnold or Dawn Wall with Tommy Caldwell and want to rock climb? I hope so! Climbing is awesome. Going outdoors require some level of climbing experience, IMO, that you can build in the gym -- listen to episode 1 on climbing. But once you go out, you will always want to be there!
