About

“You’re flirting with time”, Tom sings. And I like that idea of not fully committing to time, just flirting with it. That’s definitely how life feels when you’re in your twenties and thirties. You don’t really have to enter into a serious relationship with time because there’s so much of it still ahead. You can mess around on it and you know it will always be there when you get home. There’s an implicit transience to that title line that I absolutely love.Song : https://youtu.be/DSt4jArJo7M REFERENCED IN THE EPISODEJudge Timbers: https://youtu.be/s4fHgamxWXk Don't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/tompettyproject.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectThreads: https://www.threads.net/@thetompettyprojectBoneless Podcasting Network: https://bonelesspodcasting.comAll music, including the theme song, provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.
