Blimpmerchant Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 Hello! My name is Bryan and I've been listening to Stefan on and off for many years. My good friends who has had a terrible whirlwind of a life introduced me to FDR. I've put up with the horribly recorded traffic jam sessions, the scrubbing of the bathroom floor sessions and have seen Stefan grow and change in many ways. I've seen his views change, him become a father, and have had many complex issues brought into context with his silly metaphors while he mastered his craft. One of that arrows into the heart that has sold me on Stefan was his family of origin talks as many of us have come from semi-broken to extremely-broken homes, I've never considered family a concept before Stefan. His burning desire to make sense of the world around him helped me end the emotional abuse, and later attempt to face it, failing then succeeding. My favorite episode is 20, where we heard a somewhat Nietzsche inspired look at the state and sports with a conclusion being simply, state coerce. So, hi. 1
dsayers Posted November 1, 2016 Posted November 1, 2016 Hello! I'm from Ohio. Is that the Great Lakes state? I've never heard any state referred to as that. Stef's earlier work was instrumental in my evolution as well. Things like accepting my capacity for error, thinking rationally, and identifying all the abuse I had been subjected to has given me the gift of ME and the power to sculpt me into an amazing person. A far departure from the life of a pinball I was living before. I'm glad you've received so much value from such things too!

Absolutely, the stuff was solid towards personal growth and has helped immensely, I think Stefan helped me understand my emotions and help me cope with them. No, I'm from Michigan. :] Hello! Do you sell blimps? Oh no, I used to however teach fourth and fifth graders Biology and sailing terminology while being a deck hand on a 1800's style gaft rig schooner. A "blimpmerchant" is "someone who always in looking through portholes." I consider it the outward look from the cabin and the existential consideration that is bound to happen while living on a sailboat.
