This time we had a special guest: our good and awesome friend Shayla! We take some time to recap loneliness and to consider the sobering new findings on suicide in the US, then discuss theater and whether there is a gender difference in its appreciation (the linked article indicates that there is). Then we discuss the downsides and upsides of technology and the virtual world in regards to human relationships. Lots of talk about Facebook, text messaging, platitudes, platypi, Paul's love of octopuses, how video games enhance Bryce's bortherly bonding, and lots of profound Shayla-thoughts.

Women attend theater more than men:
