 "The stabbing horror of life is not contained in calamities and disasters, because these things wake one up and one gets very familiar and intimate with them and finally they become tame again. No, it is more like being in a hotel room in Hoboken let us say, and just enough money in one's pocket for another meal." -- Henry Miller MUSIC: Slow Burn & Just As Soon Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Almost Certainly Not

Season 2 Episode 9 | Brain Damage

Leyla makes her triumphant return, while Dan drinks too much (for these days), shares too much and points to the sky, saying: "The sun's not yellow, it's chicken!"

Season 2 Episode 8 | Any Colour You Like

No update today. Just a thing I wrote. I don't remember when and cannot say why. It's called "Mrs. America".

Season 2 Episode 7 | Us & Them

Yeah, I was in the right! Yes, absolutely in the right! I certainly was in the right! Yeah, I was definitely in the right; that geezer was cruising for a bruising...Yeah. Why does anyone do anything? I don't know, I was really drunk at the time...

Season 2 Episode 6 | Money

For the first time in a long time Dan does an episode solo. He doesn't like it. This, actually, should be considered a spinoff called "Maybe Certainly Not." Regardless, Dan has some updates about what is going on, upsides, downsides and progress, slow that it may be. Never fear, Leyla will return in episode 6.

Season 2 Episode 5 | The Great Gig In The Sky

O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts, And men have lost their reason. Bear with me; My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar, And I must pause till it come back to me.

Season 2 Episode 4 | Time

On Thursday, 23 January 2020 at 9:54 PM EST Leyla received a text message originating from Dan's phone number requesting that she call if available. She was and did. In the 13 years that Dan and Leyla have known each other Dan has never once made that request. He still hasn't to this day.

Season 2 Episode 3 | On The Run

Leyla is very gross in a lot of ways. Dan is very antisocial in every conceivable way. Leyla calls Dan a psychopath more than once. It turns out that Dan's imaginary friend made an appearance on the last episode and neither Dan or Leyla were aware of it. And much, much more, none of which is repeatable in polite company.

Season 2 Episode 2 | Breathe In The Air

Dan has had a very bad week, having lost much of his forward momentum and comes to some important, but difficult realizations that he and Leyla explore. Leyla still knows absolutely nothing about The Beatles. And the "breakfast" mystery is solved...kind of.

Season 2 Episode 1 | Speak To Me

Leyla helps Dan solve a mystery. Dan discovers what breakfast is really all about. Leyla doesn’t want to get in touch with college Leyla for a variety of reasons. Dan relates multiple disquieting tales related to his mental health…but what else is new?

Season 1 Episode 20 | Ye Mighty, And Despair!

Dan makes some new, shocking revelations about that part of himself that shall not be named. Leyla asks Dan absolutely anything, in addition to taking on all social media responsibilities for the show because of Dan's ineptitude. Leyla has a pulled groin, but powers through heroically. Both horror and hilarity ensue. MUSIC: Slow Burn Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Season 1 Episode 18 | Meddle

The show takes a turn for the better with the addition of the one and only Leyla Lawrence as a permanent co-host, helping to add a voice of reason to a show that typically contains anything but. We cover previous episode reactions, my treatment progress and complications therein and, believe it or not, we dip a toe in Me Too.

Each week he is going to try to get better by analyzing and attacking those parts of himself he wishes to change with his co-host and friend Leyla Lawrence. He does not like talking to people, so he decided to talk at them instead and to be as honest as he can.
