57 - Societal Commentary w. Nick Carver

Creative genius Nick Carver joins me this week for a blunt discussion on society. We kick the conversation off by discussing how terrifying lifestyle changes can be, which, I know, is a very common thread in recent months. Really, though, I wanted to bring Nick on to discuss why he chose to release a four-hour long video - and then ask people to pay for it. Through this, we discuss the societal idea that entertainment should be free, along with the reality of running ads on YouTube. And then we get into the meat of the conversation: anxiety, depression, and mental wellbeing. This is a long one, so batten down the hatches and let’s dive right into it.
