The Madness Behind The Mind | Why Do We Get Fixated On Certain Things?


Listen Later

For real, where do all these random obsessions come from?

In Episode #435 of 'Musings', Juan & I discuss: why Juan struggles to wake up at 4am sometimes, battling with your own bad tendencies, the fixation on fitness, irrationality as the main indicator of obsession, crazy hope within 'Death Of A Salesman', Juan's maxims for life and why I'm going to replace my hands with cinder blocks.

Huge thanks to Dave Jones, Balderdash Boys & McIntosh for the boostagrams. Your support means the world to us!
