Full Episode
It's very distressing to see people whose families are fragmented because it just curdles your soul. How far should I go for someone who I care about but who refuses to get professional help?
How do I know if I'm actually building something? If there is a substantial age gap? It seems to me unwise to reproduce things being this uncertain.
Well, what are you doing when you're talking to someone? You're thinking. Why would you think? To specify a problem and to solve it. You know, it sounds to me like you're setting yourself up as someone who could be maybe an excellent husband and father.
You know, you've evaluated your life and you've come to some new conclusions and you've developed some new daring and you're becoming more educated. It's like, share that with someone. Do you like my Jordan Peterson bust? Ha ha ha. I really don't know what to think of it.
It'd be weird if you owned it.
I think it's weird also that you own it.
Okay, let's get this show on the road. We thought it might be a fun idea or an interesting idea to take questions from your audience and have you do what you do best and try to help some people if they need help. And maybe the questions will be applicable to a lot of people. So I think it should be fun. We're going to give this a shot. I hope you guys enjoy it.
I'm Michaela, by the way, if people don't know who I am.
That would be she's my daughter.
