#137 Confidently Crazy

I share my thoughts on the controversial film Joker 2, a movie that has sparked a wide range of reactions. As a fan of musicals, I found the film's unique blend of drama, music, and tragedy to be a bold and refreshing take on the Joker character. Despite the backlash, I believe the film offers a profound character study on identity and societal expectations. In the second half of the episode, we shift gears to discuss health in America. Inspired by a recent Joe Rogan episode featuring Casey and Calley Means, we explore the critical role of nutrition and lifestyle in combating chronic diseases. The conversation highlights the systemic issues within the healthcare industry and the importance of taking personal responsibility for our health.
