Hi Friends

This week I wanted to share my thoughts on fame specifically how it’s been achieved, sought after, gifted, and taken away over the past century.

Fame is an obsession for some with people from every discipline of entertainment seeking to be the next Taylor Swift, Drake, Bad Bunny or Margot Robbie. It doesn’t actually stop there though because fame is as ubiquitous as any other part of what makes a social hierarchy function. There are people in the fields of medicine, academia, and tech that seek fame just as much as athletes who are clawing to be etched in history. One of the reasons a Simone Biles, Serena Williams, or Michael Jordan are famous is because their exploits are legendary.

What happens when we lose fame? How does the individual move on especially if fame is all they’ve known or wanted. We used to have Hollywood celebrities only, then it morphed to influencers but the cycle is repeating and new and old famous have more in common than either of them would like to admit.

I also talk about tarot cards, psychics, and good deals on bad meat.

If you love my stories I have a podcast that comes out every week: https://bit.ly/3NQmpio
