When the (now) young man was little, we would watch Blue's Clues, with Steve.
However, Steve later "went off to college" and got replaced by his "brother", Joe.
By the time the reboot with "Josh" came along, the little boy was already a little young man, and we never caught any of it.
Steve will always be the OG host for us, and that little video he made a few years back, where he told us he never forgot us, gave me, a fully grown ( er, middle aged?) woman, quite the feels.
These days, I have started listening to Steve's Podcast, "Alive with Steve Burns", and I hardly listen to podcasts. To be fair tho, I WATCH it on YTube. There have only been 2 "episodes" so far, but they are sweet, quiet and reflective, and I like them.
In the episode with Jamie Lee Curtis, he talked about being someone who "morphs" ( my word, not his ) to fit in with the crowd he is in, for acceptance and like that .... and I often feel like I am that way too. I shall not elaborate more, but just leave it here.
Takeaways from that episode, i.e. Steve's notes from his conversation with JML, who obviously adores him as well... :
"Be where your feet are"
"What other people think of you is not your business"
"Maybe it's not about giving no s**ts, maybe it's about deciding which s**ts to give. "
"Your attention ( a finite resource) is your currency, and what you spend it on, matters."
Looking forward to the ?weekly Podcasts and insights. Keep 'em coming, Steve.
