Riley & Lorenzo have 2 beers each and discuss tech-bro stoicism (aka broicism), the horrors of The Daily Stoic, why quotes don’t = wisdom, why whimsy is important, and why feeling your feelings is good, actually. Digressions include the taxonomy of church wokeness and the documentaries “Shiny Happy People” (Duggars) and “The Secrets of Hillsong.”
