DNF about halfway through. He's a terrible audiobook narrator; he doesn't even land his own punchlines. He also started with some super problematic claims about just thinking your way out of some serious and real mental health issues. I kept going after that, giving him the benefit of the doubt to explain, but no, it didn't get better.
DNF at 10%.
You know what, I'm going to do myself a favor and give this one a pass. I don't want to end up hate-reading it like I did his previous one. I was morbidly curious to see where it goes but from these first few chapters, I can already see that he wrote this to mansplain his way through the concepts he picked here and there on the internet or maybe even a few books. His musings on life are lunch hour talks with my coworkers. On top of this, that ego of his that gives him the impression that he's some sort of “millennial philosopher” is seriously off-putting.
