What Makes A Good Life?

The Curious Ulsterman

In todays episode I'm joined by my co host Nathan were we discuss a recent TED talk we watched on what makes a good life, which is deep meaningful relationships with our family and friends rather than money and fame.
Here is the link to the TED talk:

We discuss our experiences with weird and wonderful friends through our careers at sea.
Building real connection with people through shared hardship.
How most of us prioritise a relationship with our phones rather than cultivate a relationship with our family and friends.
Dealing with the crisis of loneliness in our society
and we issue a challenge to ourselves and our listeners to not be part of the 45 degree culture.
