In this free-flowing episode of Agenda Fluid, Ben and Donovan sit down for another off-the-cuff conversation about the ever-elusive balance between work and life. They reflect on their mutual friend Samuel’s missing voice, the pros and cons of working from home, and why getting an office might just save their sanity.
Then it gets a little existential. Thanks to a deck of conversation prompts, the guys dive into how they’d (not) plan their funerals if given an unlimited budget—spoiler: it involves skydiving, Vegas, and zero music. From there, it’s a winding journey through compulsory public service, trade school vs. college, what they find attractive in people (intelligence, confidence, and humor make the cut), and the unexpected weight of privilege.
Oh, and did we mention the dream of bringing Sonic Drive-In back to Tifton?
It’s real talk, with a side of wit and wisdom—because the agenda is, as always, fluid.
📝 Topics touched:
- Remote work realities vs. office life
- Funeral wishes and memorial misadventures
