Excited to listen to more!
I found you from your Anthony Bourdain episode. I loved him, looked up to him. and thought of him, who he was, and how he lived almost as a superhero for those that shared and lived in an “all in” way- as I too share(d) some of his worst habits. When he died, there was a specific type of hope that also died in me, and I’m sure in many of his beloved, long-term fans, friends, and family; it was the hope that he (and therefore someone like him) could overcome such a judged past, not by shunning it, but by embracing the good and bad and honesty in it- publicly. To many people, Tony’s past may appear to be marred, but regardless, he did not let it build boundaries to limit how successful he and Lis life could become. Tony seemed to play the antihero, who did not ask for the position, and yet still rose to the occasion. My heart remains broken for his daughter and Ottavia, my heart remains broken for the Anthony Bourdain that he himself (and all of us lost), long before his physical death- as you were correct in pointing out. I don’t know how to make sense of the end period of his life, I cannot turn it into a lesson or fable; but I do see it as a warning: that life has an immeasurable amount of choices, and that ultimately it takes all kinds of people to keep time unfolding. Bourdain remained true to himself, until he no longer could- and sadly I don’t think anyone knows why it came to that. I don’t know if he could ever realize the amount of people he touched, and his humility reminded us all that he was in fact, always just a human. The quotes

I cannot wait for more to come out. Heard about it on another podcast (TCG) and man, I am so happy I listened. The story teller has a voice that makes the story pop and the music is on point leading to a seemless podcast experience and it is only the 1st one. I have a feeling I am going to be...Read full review »
