Woke up this morning to the news that a 29-year-old airline worker in Seattle steals an Alaskan Airlines airplane and goes on a "joy-ride" before crashing it into the woods killing himself. Before he dies he was recorded telling air traffic controllers he was "just a broken guy" with a "few screws loose". I guarantee that guy did not think, earlier in his life when thinking about how he was going to die, that crashing into the woods in a stolen airplane after "snapping" was going to be the way he would go.

After not returning a text message from my buddy Randell and having him call me out on it sent me down a spiral of reflection of those that have ghosted me in the past. It's incredibly difficult to ignore personal communication in today's technological world, and it seems as though some people have given up trying to hide the fact they don't want to talk to you.

After learning that the age I am is also the average age of a man going through a midlife crisis I decided it would be fun and educational to go on a journey discovering the signs of a midlife crisis on today's episode. Only to have that journey take a significant turn and has me testifying to a substantial negative challenge in my life that weighs on my self-worth.

Hope my vulnerability can inspire someone.

Trip down memory lane today thinking about the years 1989 through 1993. Those years would be the time I was in high school. My memories of that time are extraordinarily fuzzy & it feels as though it was all a movie I watched 10 years ago. Sounds confusing but I explain it even worse in today's episode.

And to add another fantastic spoiler to this description of today's episode, I reveal the Netflix hit show Orange is the New Black character I relate with the most in life and in mostly in my head.

I can only laugh about how some of these episodes end up with the topic they do. No idea what pushed me down the rabbit hole to the subject of guys sending unsolicited D pics to women through text or messenger. I do know when the question has come up in face-to-face group conversation the women I know always want to know why some guys think its ok to send pics of their man unit to women that do not want to see it. On today's episode, I give my theory of "The Mind Behind the Unwanted Dick Pic." Sorry guys for breaking bro code but what you're doing is sexual harassment and its not cool. There are other ways to get the stimulation you're needing.

As the self-proclaimed most annoying person in anyone's life that knows me, I have some issues with Caroline Hemmingham's article "The 13 most annoying things people do on Facebook." I think the article is a fluff piece that will cause unneeded anxiety to Facebook users and reinforce the feelings that a lot of the self-appointed Facebook police think should not be in their Facebook Newsfeed. Who is the real problem on Facebook?

PLUS, the self-reflecting question for today: "When someone unfriends you on Facebook do you want to know the reason why?"

This podcast is making 100% more self-aware & I tested it this weekend while shopping at a high-line outlet shopping mall outside Palm Springs, CA. White people were the absolute minority surrounded by hundreds or Asians, Latino, and middle eastern people. The rudest of the majority was overwhelming, but I realized soon, maybe it's me. They weren't acting the way I thought they should be performing based on the culture I was raised on and currently live within. Because no of them seemed to have a problem with each other, I was the one with a problem.

Side note, the Netflix show referenced in today's episode is called " The Dark Tourist", here a link to the show: www.netflix.com/title/80189791

I hate feeling humiliation, especially public humiliation. This feeling covers me completely on my flight yesterday on my way to southern California. Fight or flight kicks in and I take the fight to Twitter & in person. "You don't get to determine if you've hurt someone's feelings or not" - Mike Patrick, my buddy.
