everything else is kind of like well that's nice now try doing it with a gun to your head and not having eaten for 3 days try staying positive then. not trying to make you feel bad just trying to point out the major disconnect with the rest of the world and majority of people who have struggled that way people who haven't struggled that way are a much smaller group

didn't care for it. pleasant for others but unrelatable for me personally. would have still subscribed if they had more diverse guests. But the guests seems to be consistent in style (middle class, privileged but also had personal issues.....like I said nice but only relatable for a small group. I'd rather here from  people who grew up like myself, homeless, hungry, hiding from gangs and sex trafficking constantly, but I managed to find my way out ....I wanna hear more from people who come from such hardship and poverty but even they were able to make it out.
