Overthought, A Podcast

5. Irregularity


Listen Later

In this discussion about life's irregularity (geographical, financial, social, mental), Chris & Isaiah attempt to determine if this irregularity is a necessary component in The Singer's Life. Is your creative mind sparked when your life is so transitory that you can't remember your current hotel room number? Why do we sometimes crave regularity, but then feel near-instant boredom when we finally experience it?
Isaiah impulsively & briefly describes 9-5 jobs as "magical", and Chris forgets how to speak properly.
