I think it's great that he's left behind all those personal issues, and that he's back to work again. I read part of "12 rules" and listen to all his podcasts. His advices are usually full of common sense, and well-meant. Away from any extremist ideology. I don't agree with all of his stances, but I think he's a public figure that adds value to the current scenario of decadence and mediocricity
