Have you heard that Jesus is on HBO Max?  If you're part of his family, he'll make sure you know.  Otherwise, it's up to us to spread the word.  It's a big responsibility, but we can handle it.  Especially now that we know how to pronounce the name of the series with complete accuracy.  See him on his special, Mr. Tough Life, ready to watch right now.  Also, we have a few listener questions for Tom that we field.  Check our social media every Friday to ask the family anything you can think of.

When you think about famous people, you probably think about overdosing on drugs.  I mean, them overdosing on drugs.  Though you couldn't be blamed for wanting to end it all when you hear about the latest celebrity "news".  Anyway, there's a reason the connection between celebrities and drugs is so universal.  Harry Milman has gone through several celebrity deaths to investigate the strange circumstances behind them.  Of the ones he looked at, 70% of them involved drugs.  That's a lot.  He's not one to pontificate on why so many famous people seem to be drug addicts.  This is about what happened, not why.  Although the answer to that question isn't always obvious either.

Humanity loves to make mountains out of molehills.  Whether it's the latest disease with an animal's name in it, nuclear meltdowns, or witches, there's always something to pretend is going to come get you.  That's not to say there are real dangers out there.  Like overly graphic scenes in TV shows and movies.  That'll scar you for life.  Just say "no" to anything with a harder rating than G.
