THE EXISTENTIAL DREAD EPISODE

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

A caller experiences an episode of existential dread after taking some time off work, and shares their perspective on romance, figuring shit out, and just being alive in 2025. He called at a time that I was also experiencing existential dread so we got pretty into it. He was a good guy. 

The bread has gone bad. I am a gecko.
