For 25 years, Bruno had a toxic relationship with time. It started with his first job out of college, navigating DC traffic for a boss who believed the solution to being late was simply "leave an hour earlier." This ingrained a deep-seated anxiety about punctuality that followed Bruno for decades, amplified by partners and a society obsessed with the clock. It became a residual behavioral response, a constant low-level stress humming in the background of his life.
But what if time isn't what we think it is? What if it's just... a concept we agree on? In this episode, Bruno shares the exact moment he decided to let it all go—the moment he told his time anxiety to fuck off. The discussion dives into the absurdity of stressing over a construct that even Plato and Aristotle couldn't define. This isn't about being irresponsible; it's about reclaiming your peace. It’s about understanding when time matters (like a doctor's appointment) and when it's a prison of our own making. Join Bruno for a short journey into the liberation of not caring about being a few minutes late.
With humor ranging from Target shopping disasters to alien pyramid theories, Bruno delivers both laughs and life-changing insights about breaking free from society’s time traps.
