#008: Marka | Being alive is GOOD!

from stranger turned friend 💌 · host Gladys

If aliens were to descend upon earth and needed to educate themselves about what it means to be alive, this episode would be required learning.  We were high on life in this one. No kidding, the amount of positivity and happy in this 1 hour 15 mins is overwhelming. I love it.  We talk about Marka's encounter with depression.  Good news, she's mentally in such a better place and I couldn't be happier for her. Then, we talked about Marka’s experience with drug use and how it changed her interpretation of the world for the better. We also talk about Marka’s horrendous memories of her two years of being a school teacher. That was pretty funny (sorry Marka...) I hope you enjoy this episode. Please leave a nice rating and comment on iTunes. It'll mean the world to me.

Same format, the same humour, and poking more fun at the woke entertainment industry.The ongoing battle between "woke" players, big studios, shady producers, and major corporations trying to buy pop culture influence, has turned into a culture war. On one side, there are people like us who just care about good stories, without the influence of tick-box agendas being forced upon us through films, pop culture, comics, video games, and more. On the other side, bad actors are trying to influence everything we enjoy and consume, while we just want to be entertained. As entertainers, we should be able to escape the daily grind of politics, but unfortunately, we are constantly being pushed with political agendas from the minute we wake up to the minute we go to bed. Some of us just want to enjoy a good story without any political influence, but when creators say things Explicit
