Ep 13: It's 2020 (Part 2) Feel what you feel so that you know what you feel 13.01.2020

Part 2 of our 2020 conversation. Feel what you feel so that you know what you feel. Cursing & retired words. We need wisdom that doesn’t downplay the youthful. Twitter is poisonous.

Ep 12: It's 2020 (Part 1) Should you make your bed? 06.01.2020

It’s a new decade: Reflections, forward and backward. Sould you make your bed? Michael doesn’t know who Paul Rudd is. Adversity keeps us young. Order and Chaos. Feel what you feel so that you know what you feel. We feel young, but we’re not young. We’re interested in fasting.
