Mark opens with a discussion about fantasy verses fantasizing and how they relate to hopes, goals, and dreams, and Mark learns something about Rachel.

In What We Learned This Week, Mark feels squished and Rachel promotes spontaneity.

In this season 3 opener, Mark and Rachel are back with their "C'mon in and pull up a chair" approach to unpacking life.

What if life is not about becoming something?

What if it's about UN-becoming what you were never meant to be in the first place?

Drinks with Mark and Rachel is back! We're standing up our new life and Tennessee, and on a steep learning curve. We're in, unpacked, employed, and ready to tackle all new topics!

In this episode, Mark asks how we know when we're done, Rachel is challenged with the southern dialect, nobody knows what "sigogglin" means, and who the %$?! is driving that dually?

In this episode of Drinks with Mark and Rachel, we welcome podcaster Garrett Woods of "Dumb and Humble" fame, and we round-table the following 3 questions in true DWMAR style:
1. What one thing are you most proud of in the last year?
2. What are you most anticipating in the next year?
3. What's your life motto?
And then, Mark throws in a surprise bonus question~!
Also, Rachel found a whiskey train? Chugga-Chugga! And why are we talking about headstones?

We invite you to play along and send us your answers! Also, let us know if there's a subject you'd like us to unpack.

We talk about goals: setting them, monitoring them, and completing them.

Do you have goals? Are accountability partners helpful or a risk?

Also, why is Mark channeling Gary, and what's a Meatloaf Break?

Finally, In What We Learned This Week (WWLTW), what's an exaflop? And the power of words.

In Season 2, episode 2, we wonder about living close to, or far away from, our kids, and whether or not there is an ethical or moral aspect to that decision.

What do you think? Do where your kids live factor in to where you live?

What do your kids think?

And, just what is a Jesus martini?

Special shout outs to Garret, Ethan, and Stacey!

We've been away far too long. What happened?

We're sorry. But we're back now!
