Not forever. Maybe. Hell, I don’t know—and that’s actually part of the point. In this short episode of Diary of a Bald Man , I talk about what happens when something you genuinely love creating starts feeling like something you’re obligated to produce. The audie

Read excerpt
Before we had algorithms deciding what we should listen to, we had commitment. We had a Sony Walkman, a box of cassettes, and a number two pencil in the glove box just in case the deck got hungry. In this episode of Diary of a Bald Man , host Allen Woffard takes a nostalgic drive down the highways of the '90s to explore the lost art of "windshield therapy."
