Summary
William Patrick is an author and editor with a long connection to books that are very relevant to this journey that Billy and Jody are on. So much so that when Billy discovered him years ago, it felt so uncanny that he thought seriously of reaching out to this stranger to say “We have a lot in common and should meet.” Instead, years later, William happened to hear Billy being interviewed on NPR, recognized the connection, and then he emailed Billy to say "We have a lot in common and should meet." So today, William joins the show to talk about the Mythopoetics of the early 90s, how the disappearing male tribe has created an era of loneliness, and what we can do to be 10% happier.
