So I don't think this necessarily was supposed to be how it went, but it became this other thing. And then it's broken up into, like, three different episodes, and each episode is, like, a different story that they're telling about Aaron Rodgers. So far, two episodes in, like, two and a quarter in because I fell asleep in the third. I feel bad for him, and it's not the way that you think.
I feel bad for him in that, like, He doesn't seem happy. It seems like he spent his entire life wanting one thing, and that was to get to Division I school, then it was to get to the NFL, then it was to win the Super Bowl. And he did all of that, and then there just seemed to be an emptiness in him. And now he's just spent the rest of his life trying to fill that feeling and chase meaning, really.

It's not really like a football documentary, though. His rehab is covered, and you're kind of seeing how he's trying to get back. But it tells his football story, but it's really more like who Aaron Rodgers is and how he got here is kind of what it is.

It goes back to his very Christian upbringing and then the fact that he went to more of a liberal college and how it had him start questioning things because he kind of got out of the bubble that he was in, and then he started โ

really having more questions in life, and then as he had more success and he wasn't finding happiness, he then started looking for happiness and reading books and finding happiness in different places that then take him down these different paths. It's kind of interesting, but you do feel bad for him.

some of the stuff that he's like well i didn't really want any of this and it's like yes and no like yes you wanted to be a great football player but like also he said that he kind of lost like once he won the super bowl everything changed he became a public figure he was never seeking that out of the fame or whatever and it's like maybe not but like you also decided to be the state farm guy that kind of really elevated you into like a household name everywhere so like there's things like that that were decisions that were made you know he even alluded to some of the

the people that he's dated. He even talks about the family stuff to an extent. So like there's a lot in there and you kind of see how he got to where he got to, whether you agree with what he's doing or not. But like at the end of the day, judgment aside, like I just kind of, I kind of hope he just finds happiness. You know what I mean?

And like find some sort of meaning and fulfillment in his life. Cause that's really what he seems to be searching for just in places that are not necessarily where you and I would. The Jets. Well, yeah, that.

Well, that started earlier than we think, too, if you watch it, because I think he's gone to like four or five retreats now. And I think it goes back deeper than the initial one that like we the big one, like a year and a half ago or whatever, that he had already done that a couple of different times.
