Episodes
Episode 05 - The Linchpin
After a series of critical setbacks, Dan decides to suspend as many fictional sequences as he can and tell the truth of his first year on the road. It's a confessional involving madness, car problems, anti-authoritarianism, red wine, Vicodin, dental surgeries, a clinical drug trial for an experimental pharmacutical, and the discovery of what he's truly been running away from.
