Timestamps

1:22  Multiverse
Life indeed is strange. Could each decision and circumstance in your existence ultimately have a ripple effect that decides your path or that of others? Some refer to this as the butterfly effect. We use it as a topic to launch this episode's overarching discussion.

15:58  Nostalgia is a Hell of a Drug
The power of nostalgia can directly influence our choices and values. Sometimes we put the past on a pedestal.

50:59  Lame Labels
Okay, so we may or may not be triggered by labels. We rant for a bit about labels being a tool used by bullies and businesses. This naturally leads us into talking about societal rules.

1:06:31  Separating Artists From Their Art
In this age of social media, we are able to gain insight on the personal lives of artists (musicians, filmmakers, comedians, etc.) on a scale that can directly affect our opinions of their creations. Can we separate the art from its creator if we lose respect for the artist?

1:21:34  Memory Lessons
From a discussion on memory itself, we remember stories from our younger days. Stories of pain, embarrassment, and humor.
