Outrageously Human

4. Roaming in the Mud with Blake Carroll

El Chen Season 1 Episode 4

For this episode, I invited one of my best friends, Blake Carroll, to talk about any and all things we felt like exploring. We covered a lot of ground - changing paths and making new beginnings, letting things be, imagining new possibilities...
Enjoy, and let me know what rabbit holes you'd like us to go down for part two.

p.s. This podcast does not have a sponor. If you see one, they're fraudulent.

Quote by Henry David Thoreau, 

“The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things…” ― Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience and Other Essays
