For someone to think your somebody
I recorded my thoughts on the 2001 film, Joe Somebody featuring Tim Allen. I got so many wonderful takeaways from this wholesome movie. Often our self esteem stems from the people around us and our level of success. But it's important to see ourselves as worthwhile no matter the amount of people that rally behind us.

Editor’s note: I wish to do this episode justice because not merely because it is a monument that glorifies the worst the world has to offer. Not merely because, despite the empty phrase-mongering of “Never Again”, this monument glorifies people who perpetuated the worst of the holocaust. In fact, some of the people for whom there are monuments in the “tribute to liberty” were so brutal that members of the Gestapo wrote to Himmler telling him how horrified they were.
