Mike Witt: The Day I Chose a Spear Over Chicken

from Ty in Progress · host Ty Pollock

Mike Witt grew up in Utah and ended up moving to Hawaii with a duffel bag, and a choice to make at the grocery store: chicken for one meal, or a spear that could feed him for months. He chose the spear. Now he's a physical therapist who's put thousands of people back together. Ty pulls up a chair with one of his oldest friends to talk about courage, queer adolescence in your 30s, and why perfection kills.
