SAD PIANO! YES! I waited for it.

For today's comment, I've got a not very thin stream of v*lue...

- I like the Swedish word (and philosophy) Lagom which literally means 'just enough'. They apply it to anything in life and many people claim that's the reason Sweden often ranks at the top of the happiest countries list.

- There's a cartoon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_MSFkZHNi4 which perfectly illustrates MOARANDMOAR audience building approach (although it's not exactly about it). Beware, the cartoon is quite weird (I warned).

Maybe Clames Jear, or any other renowned member of the cabal, just like any absurd man, keeps pushing, you know? Maybe when Clames Jear realises the futility of his task and the certainty of his fate, he is freed to realise the absurdity of his a*dience-b*ilding situation and to reach a state of contented acceptance (content-ed, haha).

Anyways, great episode as always.

Cheers,

Some interesting developments this week.

Obviously there was a massive downturn in quality this week compared to when you had that wonderful guest on last week. I forget his name but he’s clearly one to watch out for. Bright future ahead, that lad.

Anyway, it seems like factions are forming amongst the (surprisingly growing) listenership, and if it’s a war of all against all then I would like to pledge my allegiance to the Battalion of John’s given that my middle name is John.

Also, on a positive end note, I admire your courage for bravely standing up to the self improvement cabal. If you are found dead in a freezing cold shower with a cup of black coffee in your hand and a toxicology report that shows you had massive amounts of creatine and kratom in your system at the time of death, I will know that it was the Content Cartel that put out the hit. And I will avenge you, my friend.

I'm not much of a fighter if I'm honest, and I believe us Mikes should stick together. If he wants to create an unstoppable team of Mikes, then I'm all for it. Let's hug, shake hands or whatever and make up. If he still wants to battle it out, then I guess I'll have to partake but I must warn him, my deadlift PB is currently 155kg, and I am working on getting that heavier. Hopefully, that'll scare him off a little. 😂
