Episode #204: The Alex Honnold Conundrum


Listen Later

In this episode, we unpack The Alex Honnold Conundrum - why someone can be objectively extraordinary and still deeply unsettling on a human level.

This isn't a takedown, a diagnosis, or internet armchair psychology. It's a nuanced look at greatness, emotional minimalism, confidence, and the difference between admiration and compatibility.

Using Alex Honnold as a case study, we explore what people found uncomfortable about his relationship, why that discomfort matters, and the bigger question it forces all of us to ask: what do you actually need from another human — and what cost are you willing to pay to get it?
