The Things We Swore We'd Never Do ....... And Then We Did Them
About this episode
Have you ever stated you would never do something only to suddenly find 1 day/week/year later that you in fact are now doing it?
In Episode #206 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: a pineappling that I well and truly deserved for talking shit, running/long distance relationships/buying clothes online/text speak and all the other bullshit we swore we'd never do, maybe we are now the manifestation mortals, Ross Edgley's book on resilience and bullshit standard conventions, two completely different translations of the Tao Te Ching and the worst way for a pineapple to go up the bum.
As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!
