I appreciate the philosophical discussions, as well as the more practical concepts. I’ve benefited greatly from the wide variety of topics being addressed on the show. I particularly enjoy, TK Colemans, thoughtful, wise comments. The respectful and humorous interplay between Joshua and TK is another Real enjoyable part of the show. Thank you so much for all that you do.
Love these guys. So smart. Great inspiration without being preachy or condescending.
I love that they talk about minimalism but they don’t make you feel guilty about where you are at in your journey. It’s like they haven’t forgotten what it was like to have clutter so they are there to support you not judge you.
I started listening to your podcast since last year. Thank you for all that you do.
