Nate, don't take Mr. Colman's post to heart. We need your voice, need to hear from your esteemed guests. While Mr. Colman is correct that grief is love with nowhere to go, the cause of grief is not that people stay in their heads, or hate, or cast scorn instead of feeling the pain, although it's true that people do that, too.

Your trip to India gave you a break from being in your head, and gave a chance for your heart and soul to open up. By all means, get out with your ducks and dogs, get out on your bike when weather permits, whatever it takes to keep your heart and soul healthy. Please tell your listeners when you're going to take a break so we don't worry about you.

We love you. We feel your love. You are one of the few voices of sanity in an insane world. Some of your guests are out of alignment in one way or another with the message of The Great Simplification, yet you treat them with great respect. Some of your listeners interpret that as abandoning your values, but it's not - the world needs more respect, not less. Your treatment of all your guests is a model for how to treat others.

Thank you for your work, for your podcasting, and for being you.

I don’t like humans but I do love the great simplification and Nate’s podcasts and other materials he makes available to his listeners. And I love anything related to Sasquatches since I’m from Puget Sound, the home of the Muckleshoot and Puyallup tribes.
