As the year closes, Jay & Welly F. reflect on gratitude, momentum, and why “New Year’s resolutions” can be a stealth form of procrastination—if it matters, start now. They dig into what discipline actually is (and is not): being willing to repeat “boring” fundamentals, building habits that survive mood swings, and understanding how routine can be predictable without feeling dead.
From there, the conversation pivots to sleep, stress, and the odd phenomenon of being “stressfully relaxed,” including how sleep aids can backfire and why the body can look rested on paper while still running hot. The episode rounds out with a wide-angle critique of influencer culture, performative living, and media manipulation—plus a quick TV check-in (including Severance) and an end-of-year reminder to protect your peace and spend the holidays with the people you actually enjoy.
