Listener question: I was listening to Ep. 279 and it hit me hard. Years ago, my ex moved away with my son and secured sole custody. I don’t ever get to see my son, but I pay child support every month. My ex takes every opportunity to berate me and tell me I’m a terrible person when she has to interact with me. How do I achieve closure when I’ll always be tied to the person who hurts me?

When those conditions aren't met, the relationship is no longer sustainable. So why do we hold onto the myth of unconditional love?

Tauren Think Tank: The Podcast About the Blizzard Gamer Behind the Keyboard
When did it get to be September? Marconin is prepping for a day at Arkansas Comicon and Jules gives an update about her fitness and nutrition journey so far. Our Think Tank question: In the past year, my father passed away unexpectedly and I married the love of my life. My family, and my mom in particular, have had a difficult time coping with the loss of my dad. However, I’m also deeply in love and happy with my husband, but I feel my expressing love for him on social media or in my mom’s presence is hurting her badly. I want to be there for her and support her, but I also want to feel free about sharing my affection for the man I love. How can I balance this?

Eclipses, airplanes, conventions, and mounts, oh, my! Our Discussion question: Patience in a world of instant gratification. Our patience, and the ability to be patient, is dwindling in a world of same-day delivery, digital connectivity and being able to get things right here and right now. How can we practice patience in today’s environment of expecting things to be done fast?

Our special guest is Nicole Du Cane from Heroes of Fitness! Together, Nicole and her husband Tim Spencer make exercise more accessible for gamers through their popular Heroes of Fitness Twitch channel, where they stream games and take regular workout breaks that viewers can follow along with. Our Discussion question: I have gained about 60-70 pounds over the past few years due to a change in medication. I feel ashamed of my body and how exercise just doesn’t seem to get me anywhere. I can barely walk on a treadmill without feeling pain. This isn’t me - this body isn’t me! What can I do?

We’re back with sniffles and smiles, stories and sagas from the last two weeks. Our Discussion question: Changing your perceptions of people: how do you form impressions of others?

Marconin is catching them all and Jules is finding muscles she never knew she had! Our Think Tank question: I realized this week that I’m old. I’ve always thought of myself as 16, and things didn’t bother me, but now the list of things I don’t like is getting longer and my patience is shorter. I’m cynical and tired of watching people make the same mistakes over and over. What do I do?

It’s a week of personal changes, goals, and trying new things for Jules and Marconin. Our Think Tank question: My family bonded together over playing Overwatch, but my wife started a relationship outside of our marriage with a man she met through the game. Our marriage is over, but my kids still play the game with my wife, often grouping with her and the man she left me to be with. I can’t help but think if I never brought the game into our family, we’d be together, at least for a bit longer.

We’ve got updates about moving, about raiding, and about mounts! We’re also heading to Nerdtacular next week, so no regular show recording, though we’ll try to record something on site if we can. Our Think Tank listener question: I am an atheist living in the south, and I’m terrified of what would happen if my coworkers found out that I’m not Christian. I believe I would never be able to get a promotion if it was discovered. What can I do?

It’s a week of excitement, house purchase news and some host brain glitches! Our Think Tank listener question: I have been helping the new guy who I will be working with to find a place to live because he is new to the city. He can’t drive, and I feel like I should offer to drive him to and from work to help him out. The problem is, I really don’t want to do this forever, and I feel like if I offer, there will be no going back. What should I do?
