Summary
Inspired by a recent New Yorker article about the booming Margaritaville retirement community in Florida, a Twitter thread about wealth creations, and his 46th birthday, Billy is on a mission to finally pay attention to wealth creation so that he would at least be able to move to Margaritaville when his time comes. (It all ties in. It really does, and in many ways the most primal urge of adulthood is to put hay in the barn for those years when you can't any more.)Also, the fellas go deep into the "Lindy" theory and its connections to the "Remembering I'm an Animal" journey; Jody fails to convince Billy that "catch and release" fishing has any ethical basis; Billy finishes up his guided psychedelic therapy, then has the angriest birthday of his life; and the guys tackle the grandest question in life: What's the biggest animal you can beat in a fight?
