Help Me Help You

I sit down with two of my all-time most trusted advice givers. We reveal the difference between advice and answers and then try to come up with a few different advice models. Also, where does the concept of "support" fall into advice giving? This episode is extra long because we have a bonus session where we break down one particular person's way of making decisions.

Love is a mixtape

Love Is A Mixtape by You, Me, Us
A continuation from "Turn the Radio Up."  Everyone laments the loss of the mixtape.

Turn the Radio Up

Does the "where" of finding music matter to you? Our distinguished panelists discuss the process of discovering songs from TV shows good (Gossip Girl) and bad (Grey's Anatomy). Then they recommend a few songs and I ask them "Why go to live shows?" [15:57 min]
