Summary
Hello. In this episode I wake my dad up from a nap and read viewer mail with him.
He tells me about fantasizing over nuclear warfare, how his life went differently than how he anticipated, if people were more optimistic in the 70s, and a lot of other life stuff. He gave his perspective on emails about friendship, love, anxiety, and other human things. It was a good episode and I’m happy we did it. I think it was a good one. I hope you like it. Try doing a podcast with your dad it’s fun.
It is time to throw a hairdryer into outer space. I am a gecko.
Send an email to therapygeckomail@gmail.com to maybe have it possibly read on the show potentially.
