Welcome to Episode 101 of Punch Drunk TV. We wish we started the show off on a lighter note, but due to the unfortunate death of Anthony Bourdain, we do their best to unpack our own emotions regarding the man's legacy and impact on the world, while also recalling some low points in our lives that led to some self-destructive actions. Mental illness, suicide, and the way the media and social media impacts these things are all touched on ... and then 50 minutes in, the show gets into its normal groove. Bare with us.
