Don’t know. I’m in the same boat. Every time he comes up, it seems like he’s referred to as “rock star” without ever having produced anything that made it outside a beardy rock critic circle jerk.

I always end up in a much worse mood after exercising, regardless of how my workout went. It really amazes me that people say it lifts their mood so much. (But I realize I just seem to be an outlier here)
