Hindsight

It’s always nice to hear some words of encouragement to maybe inspire you to level up in life because no one wants to be a low-level noob that can’t even enter the promise land because they aren’t a high enough rank…

"You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need." - Vernon Howard

Due to a little bit of an unplanned hectic day, we have to push the originally scheduled episode to tomorrow so I can finish working on it. But it’s all okay because we have some more random philosophical questions from the randomizer! Also, you can hear my mind melting in the title extra tidbit after the outro…

"Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out." - Anton Chekhov

Did I binge watch an entire show in one day because it was absolutely amazing? Yes, yes I did. Did I then take the main idea of the show and make it into a whole conversation about the human race? Once again, yes, yes I did. Is that conversation really 40 minutes long? Actually no, no it isn’t, the last 15 minutes of this episode is pretty much just a bonus encore conversation after the outro because I still had a bunch I wanted to say but I couldn’t put it in the main episode because it’s technically off-topic and would be a tangent just like this episode description, but I still wanted to talk about it, so if you want to listen to it it’s there, but if you don’t you’re not missing the main episode. Like I always say, it’s always a good idea to give people options!

"The difficulty in life is the choice." - George A. Moore

So we’re doing something a little different today. It was an idea spawned from boredom but that’s where the best ideas come from! Also, I ended up absolutely enjoying making this which I’m not sure why I’m surprised, I don’t think I would make myself create something I don’t like, but I guess you can say I didn’t expect to enjoy it this much and hopefully, you do too!

"It takes half your life before you discover life is a do-it-yourself project." - Napoleon Hill

And we’re back to have a chat and as you may notice we have a new cover photo for the podcast, very shiny and lovely! Hopefully, you like it just as much as you’ll like this episode because everyone loves just having a chat!

"Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't." - Richard Bach

We’re wrapping up my ghost hunting adventures with my friend Jay talking about the ghost hunting duds, the ones who we can say myth definitely busted!

"Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood. All is riddle, and the key to a riddle is another riddle." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

As always for a holiday such as today, we have a short one for Mother’s Day so you can spend time listening to your mom and not listening to me. Don’t worry, I don’t cry in this episode but the end is a little emotional so if you’re slightly Charmin ultra-soft, you might want to have some of those around...

“When you are looking at your mother, you are looking at the purest love you will ever know.”  - Charley Benetto

To welcome the end of my spring semester, it felt only right to tell more tales from the place where it all started, good ‘ole Georgia Southern!

"Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets." - Arthur Miller

And we complete the holy trinity of controversial conversational topics by talking about news outlets! To be fair, this isn’t as controversial as religion and politics but yet people still seem to get the underwear all ruffled up when you try to hold their favorite news outlet accountable. I wonder why…

"Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated." - Confucius

Going two for two on talking about things that people never want to talk about but worry not, I’m not simply attacking your party for an entire episode, I’m attacking both parties for an entire episode because it doesn’t matter what party you align yourself with, we all simply need to do better.

"Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?'" - Martin Luther King, Jr.
