FAP-221 When The Wind Rises - Passion Flys With Help

This week we talk about a recommended movie called When Wind Rises and it follows the life of Jiro. While the person and what they accomplished is true there are a fair number of creative liberties taken for how they were. It shows the true passion someone can have and how love can also change a person for the better. Join us as we rise with the wind.
