In this podcast, Tim reflects on his past two months - a time during which he has vividly experienced the bi-polar II roller coaster. Tim shares his thoughts on self-awareness, self-care, the dangers of Facebook, gun rights, the Orlando Massacre, and even how to train a ferret. You'll have to listen to find out which one of those is a lie.
