Morning.

All right, here's the GTK.

The Get to Know You Question of the Day. It doesn't matter what it is. It can be a book, a newspaper, it can be a tweet. It's the best thing you've read in the last few years. Now, not everybody's a book reader, and I definitely go through stages where I read a lot more than I don't. But I would go first to give you guys a time to think. This was a long book, but I and my family deals with a lot of addiction,

had a lot of death from addiction, trying to understand addiction. I read this book by Gabor Matei,

and it's called In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts. And what he did, he worked at a free clinic

in Canada that was a doctor just working with addicts.

And one of those where you just like feel differently about life a little bit after you read it.

Like this is a nonfiction. It's a big heavy read. I didn't read it for fun. It wasn't like, I can't wait to read about more addiction.

But that was probably the best thing I've read in the last few years called In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts.

A therapist actually recommended it to me.

And I've also started to read a little bit of fiction, which I never did.

You read for fun.
