In this episode, we are joined by many returning guests, Joe Jackowski, Nick Buegel, and Jordan Criss. As this is a Friendsgiving episode, we recorded before we had our yearly get together. We cover a wide area of topics where we try to get an update on what everyone has been working on, but we quickly dive into deeper waters. We start our conversation in Jordan's recent exploration into Aaron Sorkin. From there, we have a broader dialogue on how fame and power affect people. We then ask the question of what is Art - using Kanye West as an example. The discussion on Art then turns toward a discussion on self-expression and vulnerability. One of the last topics we talk about the philosophy of Jean-Paul Sartre. Then we finally close with what Nick and Joe have currently working on.

On this episode of the podcast our guest today is Eric Herrera. Eric is one of my oldest friends at over ten years running. Eric has spent time as a Tower Climber for cellphone towers and other hands-on jobs. I try to ask questions that are uniquely suited to the person I'm a conversation. For Eric, the question that was asked was how to be yourself? I know that's a straightforward question, but we all are working in the context of our own situations, and Eric does not filter who is any situation. Being yourself is as much a skill as anything else we can do.

In this podcast episode, the guys talk about addiction, anxiety, and depression. The topics we discussed are complex, and we barely scratch the surface on them. None of us are trained in this area, and we don't pretend to be, so anything we say is just talking through a complex topic. We want to find better solutions for these situations. Lastly, I'd like to thank Ben for being able to articulate his experiences with anxiety in such a concise way.
