This episode of Question This Life is Part 2 of a 2-Part conversation with friend and fellow comedian Brendon.
Key topics of discussion in this episode include;
- Revaluating/changing your values and surroundings rather than staying the same and becoming resentful when things aren't going as planned.
- Changing your situation, following the call and moving to a new city that's more in line with what you want in life.
- The limitations of books like 'The Secret' - and the importance of the hard work and implementation part of visualisation / law of attraction.
- The archetypal hero journey narritive behind the film 'Gladiator', parallels with ancient religious texts.
- Getting your attitude 'checked' by someone close to you, and being given advice that's hard to swallow but exactly what you needed to hear.
- Avoiding being too emotionally tied to your work and your creative output and how it's perceived by yourself and others.
- Not letting yourself be stunted by the trap of perfection or always 'waiting for something to be ready'.
- The challenge of writing comedy bits that play on cliche's and sensitive issues.
- The delicious cuisine of homemade pies in New Zealand, slow and low cooking style, cast iron cookware.
