Welcome to Struggle Session, where I respond to reader and listener comments and toss up a question that isn’t going to make it into the column and invite you — my readers and listeners — take a turn playing advice columnist.

You’re awesome, Dan. Thousands of us read your words and listen to your podcasts. You often thank guests for demeaning themselves by coming on your “dumb” show.

Show your guests you’re proud of yourself and your awesome show!
Thank you for the nice note, Sam,...
