Here I am going back to my roots. Speaking of which, in this episode, I talk about feeding the roots with fall fertilizer.

Okay, we now begin a new podcast with a new name.

I will be back very soon with a whole new podcast,

After three blissful decades of avoiding the dating scene, I'm thrilled to announce my reluctant return to romance. Nothing says "catch me if you can" like someone who's been out of practice since the Clinton administration.

Apparently, my friends think I need "companionship" and "human connection." How quaint. So here I am, dusting off my flirting skills and pretending to understand modern dating apps. Because nothing could possibly go wrong with jumping back into a world where "Netflix and chill" has replaced actual conversation.

Wish me luck – I'll need it.

Non-fiction books deserve our twisted gratitude. Thanks to self-help books for making me realize my life needs exactly 47 different fixes. I'm grateful to productivity guides for teaching me to spend more time organizing than doing. History books remind me every generation thought they were doomed—oddly comforting. Psychology texts give me just enough knowledge to armchair-diagnose everyone. Business books convinced me I'd be successful if I just ate kale at 4 AM. Science books make me insufferable at parties, while biographies make me feel lazy for not changing the world by 25.
