Everything will be OK as soon as you are OK with everything.

About this episode

The episode discusses how a limited time to live might change one's perspective on life's trivialities, alongside humorous anecdotes and critiques of popular media.

If you had a week to live, would you stop sweating the small stuff? One answer is yes. The other would be MORE upset about traffic. That tracks. Also: ears cleaned for science, a guy in a mascot costume jumps into a monkey enclosure and gets arrested before the monkeys can handle it properly, AI dating negotiations, and Stranger Things, Wheel of Time, and Game of Thrones all convicted for crimes against their source material.
