Jason Kotecki (@escapeadulthood on twitter) joins host Craig Price to discuss Adultitis. Who wouldn't want to be a kid? We all would but growing up has a way of ending that. Thankfully, Jason is there to put a stop to Adultitis, a common ailment in adults that makes them take life too seriously. Of course, after taking the online quiz to see if he suffered from adultitis, it was not unexpected that Craig would have Stage 2 Adultitis: an aggressive and pervasive form of the disease. Together, Jason and Craig discuss how Jason's latest book "Penguins Can't Fly +39 Other Rules That Don't Exist" can help those that suffer from Adultitis. They talk about eating dessert first, Jason's desire, yet reluctance to buy redshoes due to Adultitis as well as random things like why Craig's wife makes him sleep on certain sides of the bed at hotels, stormtrooper armor, digital art and much more. In his enlightening book, Jason uncovers some of the most useless rules so you can shift perspective and start seeing the world with wonder once again.
