Being The Best: Who Are You To Yourself?

We're all about introspection here people. The name Mere Mortals didn't come about because we look at ourselves and are entirely happy with what we see.In Episode #214 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: trying to be/do the best for yourself versus for other people, if you met another version of yourself would you like that person?, authenticity and why it misses the need to act differently depending on the situation, why free speech isn't our ultimate moral/ethic/value (but is still important as hell), why even your own language can surprise you, some negatives that can come from being bilingual and general chit chat on how important culture is to language learning (and vice versa).As always, we hope you enjoy.
