Recorded shortly after Robin Williams committed suicide in 2014, this was one of the most popular episodes from the old podcast. It covers many topics Friar Chris and I discussed in the previous podcasts, including the fraud of "normal", misguided identity, the emptiness of success, depression, and the performers need for praise and validation. Some of the early ideas surrounding the Social Media Disease such as personal “branding” and virtual facades are here as well as kernels of things that will become familiar to the regular listener, such as The Marrow of Humanity.
