Episode #36 of The Happiest Sad Person Podcast.
Join me, Alessandra, as I embrace the unemployed yet somehow constantly busy life of a creative. I also muse on Harrison Butker's commencement speech and how repulsive I find that way of thinking and how to potentially use existentialism as the salve -- spoiler alert, it always comes back to existentialism.
Just like for another YouTuber it always relates back to tuberculosis. :)
As always, email suggestions to 11jacobsa@gmail.com.
