Disclaimer: This was recorded before the coronavirus outbreak really exploded in North America. It has been super surreal and after listening to this in retrospect it sure gives some perspective as to where we were about a month ago.
So, here we are! We are currently talking about the male tendency to escape from problematic and troubling situations and circumstances by escaping mentally and emotionally. We touch on tons of impactful topics that a lot of us resonate with: video games, workaholic, entertainment, substance use, addiction, and other ways we "escape" and "take a break" from reality.
We try to make a distinction between healthy ways of escaping versus those that ultimately sabotage our lives toward the end of the episode.
Strap up! We are gonna have some FUN!
