This is hard. I have been "sick" but not with any of the traditional Covid "symptoms." None the less I am not only stressed out about not knowing...but I don't even know...if I want to know...Ugh.

It's that time of year where the inevitable conversation about the nature of "The Fat Man" himself comes up in my house. There's a lot to navigate around.

This week starts with just being frustrated at having to "hurry up and wait" for things to turn around. Having to go through the motions and work to keep people safe and healthy, instead of being able to enjoy what life has to offer. I want more.

In season 1 of this podcast, I talked about my time as a talk radio show host. In 2007 my co-host and friend Marc left the show abruptly and I was never able to understand what went wrong. 10 years later we finally had a chance to sit down and come to terms with what happened.

This is a rant. Pure and simple. And I'm sorry but honestly, I'm not. I'm angry. People are dying and too many people don't care. 

Rough night. Far too much of me trying to "be ok" appeared to catch up with me.

This was probably the hardest thing I have ever recorded. That's all I can say.

This month I want to explore my life and as the title of this Season suggests, try to come to terms with some of the things I experienced and dealt with in life. I'll also talk to some close friends about how they have come to terms with difficult times in their lives and see if we can find a common thread.

Today I will start by telling you about my Mom. She tragically died far too young and for all the wrong reasons, and how the person she was in some ways shaped the person I am.

Closing out Season 3 with an amazing opportunity to sit down with my son Gideon and explore what it is that motivates and moves him. We explore his outlook on life, learning, and why he is moved to make people feel things that they didn't expect to. 

Super short one because it's a holiday and we all have better things to do, lol. My thanks to you for listening none the less :)
