My Very Last Life episodes

  • Walking for Happiness – Chapter 35
    I actually wanted to talk about how walking regularly in the open air has made me much happier and less depressed, even surprisingly so, but then I lost focus and went off on a wild rant about death.

  • Watching my cats watching me
    Sometimes I turn around and see my cat watching me … and I wonder: How long has she been doing that? And why? And what does she know that I don’t?

  • 1 down and 19 to Go – Chapter 31
    My 61st birthday –
    one year into my Very last Life and as per schedule I decide what I am going to do with the last 20 years (now 19) of my life ...
    the entire plan, the boozey party by myself on the bridge overlooking the highway at 5:45 in the morning, my list of Great Books, my prayer.

  • Night Falls on Möbel Höffner – Chapter 30
    One year down and 19 to go – next week I turn 61. So of course I sat down in the display furniture in the dark parking lot of Möbel Höffner and talked about it to myself. I was not alone.
    The first year of my Very Last Life has been lived and the goal I set for myself was to know within this year exactly what I was going to do with it. 
    Do I know? do I not? I sat in the dark empty nighted parking lot of Möbel Höffner and thought about it and spoke this podcast … 
    Epilogue! 
    … and on my way home I made two of the strangest, happiest encounters I’ve ever made in Berlin – so I added on an epilogue. 
    One of those encounters was a young man named Guri, an Indian Sikh – as far as I can tell – who is pursuing a rapping career. He was the other guy in the parking lot! 
    He was a nice guy and I highly recommend you support him - young men and women of ambition need our support – so watch, like and subscribe to his channel on YouTube: https://youtu.be/udMXWXhbqvw

  • Feminism is Capitalism for Girls
    Playing the brilliant game "The Last of Us II," I realized that modern feminism is really about women taking on the same masculine values that pretend to despise. Is the woman of the future a man with a vagina?
