Johann Hari's book "Lost Connections" took on new relevancy in 2020, and still today in many places around the world. While social distancing and isolation have dominated much of human existence in recent memory, the essential elements of human life are disconnected from our way of living. Lost Connections is a book that details 9 main causes of depression and serves as a concise critique of modern living. While isolating, Peter, David, and Tim get together to chat over these topics while relating them to our current situation with COVID-19 especially. We encourage you to read this book as it is perhaps one of the most important books of the 21st Century.
