Our very special Monday guest is Ryan Essmaker, the mind behind The Great Disconnect, sorry, The Great Connect Four, sorry, The Great Discontent, a blog about depressed and unhappy creative people. Ryan also works at Crush + Lovely, where he probably makes wine.

When Ryan isn't canoeing around the streets of lower Manhattan dressed as a viking, he can be found in a top secret location creating S's and searching for his next fix of bourbon.

Today's episode is not sponsored by The Mild Inconvenience (because it doesn't exist ... yet).
