Made me so happy to hear the e-mail from Policeman Andy, great knowing he's out there listening too.
Re: Episode 243: Melissa Villasenor
A lot I liked about their conversation, including:
"The alternative for us, instead of being around people and setting boundaries, is completely withdraw and not have anything to do with people … " (That's about an hour and four minutes into the podcast.)
And then, a little later, when Gilmartin talks about Django Reinhardt playing in a minor key, but keeping the tempo upbeat.
And, Villasenor does a great Maria Bamford!

First: Animal Crossing <3 <3 <3
Second: "With social media, everyone's posting everything so I feel sometimes I close up myself and say 'forget it, I'm worthless, I'm not really needed, these other people can do it instead.'"
I related to that SO much. I've stopped using social media for the most part and Melissa pinpointed the reason for that. Great interview.
