Episode 1: Battling Escapism After the Pandemic: Reconnecting with Reality

Host Bill Shakos reflects on turning 50 and navigating life after the pandemic in the pilot episode of What Do I Know?. Joined by his friend of 30 years, Jesse Shafer, they explore what the “new normal after COVID” means for them. One made good choices, the other went down a rabbit hole of escapism.

In This Episode:

  • Learn about your host, Bill Shakos, from childhood, character traits, and the impact of his father’s death.
  • Jesse’s journey from NYC to Weston, CT, and the unexpected positive changes it brought.
  • Bill’s rediscovery of childhood passions that spiraled into poor decisions impacting his health.
  • How Bill ‘course corrected’ to build guardrails for positive behavior and channel his enthusiasm. 

Why Listen? A candid conversation on escapism vs. balance and breaking bad habits. This episode dives deep into reflection, change, and the pursuit of balance in a post-pandemic world. If you’ve ever felt the need to reset or reconnect, this conversation is for you.
