    The Dark side of Necessary Pursuits-Episode 9

    In a culture that prizes productivity over pleasure, it’s hard to make time for our hobbies. This is the idea we explore this week. Hobbies can be numbing if taken too far, we are told there is an age limit on pursuing certain hobbies, and because of these popular notions, we don’t explore our passions to their fullest potential. Listen and reflect with us! This episode is dedicated to Tyre Nichols, an artistic soul who’s life was stolen too soon. An announcement: Beyond the Closet Door podcast is anti-racism and anti- white supremacy Crystal of the week: Pink Tourmaline Dinner guests: Leonard Cohen & Tiffany Pollard (AKA New York) Email us: beyondtheclosetdoorpodcast@gmail.com
