Is Self-Compassion the Lost Primal Skill?
from Remembering I'm an Animal · host Billy Baker and Jody Simoes
Not to get all Oprah on you, but the guys get a bit Oprah on you today as they discuss the topic of self-compassion, which might just be the missing link connecting the incessantly-forward-thinking modern human to the in-the-moment animal they evolved to be. The boys continue adding to the list of fundamental human abilities, while trying to figure out what to call the list; discuss how Billy is both a Jim and a Dwight, which explains his issues with not wanting to learn how to make a friction fire; hear about Jody's attempts at barefoot running through a field of green grass and goose poop; and introduce two new segments -- the Question of the Week, and Unsolicited Advice. All this and the greatest joke of all time, courtesy of Mitch Hedberg and a fire at a potato factory in Maine.
