Where All Light Tends to Go and an Early Times BiB
Light tends to go where it wants. We can try to hide from it, maybe even lose our accents in an attempt to avoid it, but good luck with that. Let's talk about feeling trapped, coming up for air and, in turn, being the air for those who need it. Also, Early Times BiB is legit. Cheers.

Chapter 21: The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
Do we care about too much or do we care too much about the wrong things? It's time to talk about those possibilities, going to work angry, being part of the problem, finding a personal solution, and bourbon. Always bourbon. Enjoy.

Customer Reviews
Well-done, eloquent and simple.
The editing and composition are a delight, like taking a long, slow drink of your favorite dram. I thought it would be far more frenetic and comprehensive. Instead, it’s a contemplative response to what Chris has read, accompanied by his (& my!) favorite drink.
I am glad he has kept at it. 🙏🏼
You had me at hello.
Chris, I love the podcast, keep up the great work. I would have to say Chapter 4: High Fidelity and the first sentence is probably my fav so far.
"Nothing…that’s the dreaded answer to the dreaded question, what are you thinking about right now?"
Thanks!
Yes!
This is the gold. Two fantastic worlds colliding like peanut butter meeting chocolate. Between Book and Bourbon I probably do more than I should of one, and less than I should of the other, but this podcast inspires me to do both better. This is gold I say.
