In this episode we have a look at a little figurine that sits on my desk each day, that of Colonel Vasquez, the wise cracking heavy gunner from the 1986 sci-fi thriller 'Aliens'. Vasquez has on her chest plate the phrase ' El Riesgo Siempre Vive', meaning 'The Risk Always Lives'. When we are jumping into anything, we are taking risks. Hell, even being alive is risky, and none of us makes it out alive. So while we are around, what are we doing with ourselves? Why do we allow ourselves to be paralised by fear into inaction? I break all this shit down, hope you get something from it.
