Are redheads really more sensitive to pain? – David's orange girlfriend is discussed Tattoos may seem like they're everywhere, but they still stigmatize people in the legal system. Have you ever wished your life was more meaningful? Psychologists have a suggestion to help: model it after a hero's journey. – David derails by turning the conversation towards the Artist's Journey.
