New year; new season. Bob joined the International Worker of the World (I.W.W.) and talks about what being a Wobbly means to him. They go on to discuss the implications of the recent white vigilante attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The brothers “set the table” for the new season, Season 5. The big theme is “avoidance” as the Thriving Crew feels like this theme does not get talked about that often. They play with confrontation as the opposite of avoidance. They wonder when does a healthy avoidance, say of avoiding traffic, turn into an unhealthy avoidance, like putting it off and then never dealing with it? They see some value in avoidance, but they do see some of their own bad habits around avoidance in their lives.
They hope to talk about how to know when avoidance is happening, procrastination, the disgusting, in-group/out-group and social power, how to come back to the avoided, and avoid the Noid.

Avoid the Noid
Dystopian Rainbow
The Giver by Lois Lowry. Does it still hold up 30 years after it was written? Is the ending too happy?
