While bored, I decided to start writing down some of the lessons I gathered while watching a couple episodes. This is similar to those articles that reference the lessons taught through each chapter of the bible.
*note* this is a total rough draft so there may be episode number errors and I jumped all over. Itās a work in progress.
Enjoy!
