I'm out hiking in the forests of Japan, when I come across a BBQ that I don't want to be a part of..

This episode I take a peek at the stock villain from Japanese mythology, the oni. I think oni are generally misunderstood, which brings me to the topic of the day, which is empathy, especially for those who you might disagree with. I differentiate between empathy and sympathy, and talk about why empathy is so hot in the personal development sphere these days, and how powerful it can be.
