Summary

In today's show Kyle Thiermann shares the near death experience that altered his life's perspective, explains the creative fertility nested in boredom, shares how his relationship with psychedelics has changed after nearly a decade of experimentation, reflects on the moment he learned you don't need to master your hobbies, and discusses his desire to maintain strong relationships with his parents despite developing radically different ideologies and how that inspired his first book, "One Last Question Before You Go: Why You Should Interview Your Parent's".
