Me & Rich overthink the idea of over thinking. More stuff about the DMV and IRS if you've been following along. Thanks for listening.

How do you cope when it feels like the universe is piling on? Rich gives us some pretty good advice. I complain about stuff some more. Here is a new episode of Does it Get Better.

This episode is supposed to be about Focus & Goals, but I can't stay focused and so I never once discuss my goals.

Me & Rich just do a little check in. See how we are doing after 3.5 months of these friendship therapy sessions. SPOILER ALERT: We're ok. Thanks for asking.

Yo! We're talking about change! Change it up. Change is good. Change is scary. Ch-ch-ch-changes. Turn and face the change. Time may change me. But I can't change time. I see no change. We gotta start making changes. Learn to see me as a friend instead of two distant changes.

I use very foul language in this one and continue ranting about the government and how expensive being poor in America is. Rich tells us how his trip to the DMV turned out. Lots of trigger warnings and stuff for this one. Also, Rich pitches Sarah Knight's book Calm The $!?%# Down.

Boy do I complain quite a bit about financial stress in this episode. We need to drop the stigma attached to being poor. Stop pretending you are temporarily not rich and start being vocal about how the system in designed to make sure you never get ahead. It costs so much money to have no money. It's ridiculous.

We had our first guest, Alexis Marshall from the band Daughters. We talk about crying, 12 step programs & (oddly enough) masturbation. Thanks for listening. Tell a friend.

Rich and I talk distractions... Rich talks about his bird feeder and imagines life with a talking dog. I probably said something insensitive so TRIGGER WARNING!!! 

Rich and I discuss our childhoods. Well, we discuss Rich's childhood, I skirt the issue quite a bit. Avoiding and deflecting with humor. Hope you enjoy. Again, careful with the trigger warnings, folks. I do not tip toe around stuff.
