During the chat, Megaman discusses how deprivation is the spice of life, imposter syndrome, Viking sword fighting, ego death, Bear Magnet, Hayduke Dies, Double Dip, the power of McDonald's toilet paper, finding joy where you can, overcoming an addiction to street fighting, the difference between Blue Springs and Independence kids, and the peculiar skill sets needed to hike the Fourth Crown Trail. Think you know what's going to happen in this one? Think again. You have no idea.
