The Matt Mani Podcast Episode 40: Happiness Is A Hole In The Wall

The Matt Mani Podcast Episode 40: Happiness Is A Hole In The Wall. In this episode I discuss bars, cafes, restaurants, travel, and one of life’s great joys, having a few pints at the pub. I discuss how bar and cafe culture relate to our sense of time in the modern world. I argue that instead of wasting time or seeking refuge in the bottom of a bottle, an afternoon or night at a bar is an allowance to be mindful and fully aware of the life we are living. Instead of an escape, I postulate that bar and cafe culture provides present awareness in an environment that is a microcosm for all of life.       In addition, I discuss travel, The American relationship with time, and the importance of “wasting” time.  More than anything I attempt to exalt the true joy I get from watching life enfold in the comfort of a beautiful bar, cafe, or restaurant. In its most simplistic form this episode is really just a celebration of drunken people watching.
