Just in time for the most romantic holiday of the year, we have the first part of a two-parter deep dive into "The Gift of Fear," Gavin de Becker's 1997 book on respecting your intuition and identifying dangers to yourself, whether out in public or in relationships. if you've ever wondered if there are ways to semi-accurately detect and deal with threats, this is the episode to listen to. If not, you still may get something out of our discussion on Carrie Fisher, figurative and little minefields, kangaroo fight strategies, and chicken nugget shortages at the grocery store.
You can find a copy of "The Gift of Fear" here.
Our theme music is “Drop” by the artist Ketsa. If you like their music, you can find more of it here.
