Unfortunately, last week's obnoxious AI generated show notes didn't make the cut, but AJ Soprano did! After a seemingly random tangent about the pathetic state of the Oakland A's, Todd dives into how The Sopranos, specifically AJ, was ahead of its time regarding the connection between obsessive media rumination, a naive messiah complex, and depression. Ask your shrink if a regular dose of gratitude is right for you. It often works for the terminally ill.
Also, a change is coming to the podcast! Believe it or not, all this is related.
