  Episode 18: Stop Feeding the Ghost

  Mar 18, 202657 minS2

  <p>In Episode 18 of 67 Takes, Sean and John dig into some of the most emotionally loaded ideas they’ve touched so far: toxic positivity, forgiveness, closure, fear, and what it means to stop “feeding the ghost.”<br /><br />The conversation starts with the question of whether it’s always healthy to forgive, and moves through grief, trauma, empathy, survival, and the strange way endings can become beginnings. Along the way, they talk about spirituality, Ayn Rand, Neil Peart, society, humanity, and whether losing comfort or civilization would change who we really are.<br /><br />A strange, thoughtful, and very human episode.

  <p>In Episode 17 of 67 Takes, Sean and John start with a simple question about punctuality and wind up somewhere much deeper.<br /><br />We talk about Van Neistat’s “Your Tardy Friends Suck,” why being on time can feel like a form of respect, and how keeping your word connects to trust, community, and the way people live together. From there, the conversation drifts into art that takes years to understand, the things we love once and never revisit, instinct, hive mind, trauma, and whether people really choose what they think.<br /><br />It starts with punctuality — and ends somewhere closer t...
