In this week's episode of Chris's Corner, I dive deep into the internet sensation known as "Literally me." This meme has recently made a comeback, thanks in part to Ryan Gosling's portrayal of Ken in the Barbie movie. The character of Ken embodies the idea that one can be complete and content on their own, giving rise to the notion that Ken is "Literally me." During this episode, I analyse various films and characters that explore themes of loneliness, numbness, the search for purpose, and the feeling of emptiness in their lives. However, I don't just stop at highlighting these challenges. Instead, I am on a mission to show that "Literally me." doesn't have to be a permanent state, and I provide valuable insights on how you, as a viewer/listener, can break free from that rut and continue moving forward. Join me in this thought-provoking exploration, and together, we'll uncover the positive side of "Literally me." As always, I hope you find this week's episode enjoyable, and I look forward to seeing you right here next week.
