Welcome to the Things That Shape Us podcast. My name is Jonathan Wymer and I'm joined by James Gary to discuss a various range of subjects that are all related to one idea: How those things shape our lives.

In this episode, James and I discuss ONE THING that shaped our lives. Some things in life are simply overrated. There are social "obligations" or what people deem "necessary"; there are items that we believe we need to have, and there are events that we feel the need to take part in.  Hopefully we don't go full Sheldon Cooper in this episode, but there's a lot that we discuss in terms of what is overrated, or even underrated in life. We circle through materialism as being a key component of human life that can sometimes elevate a form of emptiness that leads the individual to labeling something "overrated". There's plenty that's overrated in this episode.
