Ep 70: When in Doubt - Delulu is the Solulu

This episode is based on an internet slang mantra which translates to "Delusion is the Solution." Find out why healthy artists rely heavily on healthy self-delusion to self-motivate. Like Comedian, Nina Oyama, says, one must create a "self deception turducken" to persevere in a creative pursuit. I also threw in Lady Gaga, David Shrigley and even Salvador Dali who all had excellent quotes.
