Poop Pills, Fish Homicide, and The Problem With Trying to Be Perfect | Ep. 94 | Wyatt Matters

This week’s show starts with a sleep remedy nobody asked for: scientists are testing capsules made from donated fecal material as a treatment for chronic insomnia. Yes, poop pills. And yes, Steve and the crew have questions.

Then, a 76-year-old man loses sleep over the noise coming from his neighbor’s koi pond. The fish themselves are silent, but his battle with the pond takes a turn nobody saw coming and somehow ends with what Steve calls “fish homicide.”

From there, Steve gets personal about his own struggle with perfectionism. What looks like a commitment to excellence can become something much less healthy when fear of failure, control, and the need to get everything exactly right take over.

The conversation turns to faith and a question many people wrestle with: What if I’m never good enough? The crew explores why following Jesus was never supposed to mean achieving perfection, and why the Christian life begins by admitting that we can’t fix ourselves.
