150. Nobody Knows What The Hell They're Doing

Getting Old Quickly

In Episode 150, Billy Donnelly shares his gratitude for hitting such a milestone episode, given that he never thought this podcast would reach this point when it first started. But then he moves on to embracing the idea that no one has any clue what they're doing. He discusses the front that people put up to display that everything is good on their end, but -- thanks to a therapy lesson -- he's come to terms with the fact that that's not the case, and everyone's lives are messy. He relays that he thought something might be wrong with him at various points because he was struggling and his life wasn't where it "should" be. But he's taken comfort in the knowledge that we're all just winging it and hoping things work out okay because there's no real right way to do any of it. He also talks about his experience growing up and seeing adults who looked like they had a pretty decent grasp on things -- something he now knows just wasn't the case.
