Because the last couple episodes have been loaded later in the week, we figured we’d load this one early. Here’s why:

Sometimes we record episodes and, while making the damn thing, we know it’s going to be a bit better than most episodes. Sometimes we’re actually funny; other times, we’re quick to thoughts and sound like we know what we are doing. Sometimes, we are very open about things — maybe even too open for some.

This episode might be a bit of all those things as we talk about something not unknown to the world: anxiety!

* * *

We begin with this: have we ever had problems with anxiety? (That anxiety is this week’s topic, the answer should be pretty evident.) After that, we talk about the first person we knew who struggled with anxiety.

Find out what makes us panic…and if we’ve ever had all-out panic attacks. Then we talk about how we deal with anxiety.

We’re guessing we all know somebody who struggles with anxiety to various degrees. We chat about what we do to try to help those people…and then discuss the dumbest things that have caused anxiety in our lives.

Lives eventually end. Death is a source of stress for many people. We talk about whether or not we often think about death — and if it makes us anxious when it’s on our minds.

Finally, we wrap it up with this: what is the cure for anxiety (or does a cure even exist)?

As always, feel free to comment on this week’s episode below.
