Here is part one of my fantastic conversation with TIME Magazine columnist Joel Stein! Topics discussed:
Some quotes from this episode:
“I’m embarrassed not to have herpes.”
“When I’m a dick, I think it’s likable?”
“I exceeded my dreams in my 20’s and coasted ever since.”
(On striving for immortality through your work): “See a therapist…that’s ego narcissism; that’s craziness. If you’re the President of the United States, odds are in 30 years no one will be able to name you.
“Parenting is so reactive. I thought it would be so proactive, but it’s basically just triage all the time.”
“[Having a kid] didn’t ruin my life like people told me it would.”
"I just know men are horrible."
Joel will be back next week with part 2 of our conversation, where things get only more intense, and more sexual.
