Greetings. This is the TZ free version of Roma 86. I'm just telling you what I talked about on the Roma. I talked a bit about Scott Galloway and one of the reasons that I admire him.

And his sort of perceptions of money and people who

chase after money.

And then I got into David Siddaris and,

George Michael and,

um,

Andre Agassi.

I don't know if you can find the common thread between the three of those.

Then I played a song,

uh, Peter Gabriel's song. And then I talked about Aubrey Marcus and his recent public revelations about his marriage

and the radical monogamy or whatever the fuck they're calling it. I got into that a little

bit and I played another song and then I responded to a listener email who was asking me about

the period my late 20s, early 30s, when I kind of got tired of traveling and was thinking about settling

down and what to do with the rest of my life and, you know, that kind of return of Saturn thing.

I talked about that, that feeling of how maybe slowing down physically could enable you to travel in the mind,

in the relationship, deepen things.

You know, there are these horizontal and vertical axes in life,

and sometimes we get caught up on one and we forget about the other.

So, yeah, talked about that. Anyway, if you want full access to

the podcast and my scribblings on Substack, all you got to do is go to Chris Ryan.com and sign up.

If you can afford it and you have a little cash line around and you think it's

worthwhile. I certainly appreciate those of you who pitch in five bucks a month or 50 bucks a year
