It goes over the two questions I've been wanting to ask Yanis Varoufakis and his answer to one of them. It mostly focuses on the optimistic sentiment that what I have been thinking we should all do is something we can and might actually do now. There are some audio blips -- sorry about that.

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating.

Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
