The Netflix Aaron Rodgers docuseries is unbearable

I decided to check it out because I'm bored -- OMG there's RFK Jr! -- and he's such a repellent person. It's a strange thing to say about a documentary about someone, I guess,but there's way too much Aaron Rodgers in it, a kind of droning, rarely interrupted monologue.

These things work better IMO when it's people around the subject tell the story and the subject speaks up to provide his or her interior thought process. But maybe because he keeps everyone at arm's length, the outside perspective is absent, save a few innocuous comments from Mike McCarthy, the GB O-line coach, and a few others.

Now, in episode 2, he's getting into his "spiritual journey" and I think. I can't take any more.

Aaron is very much full of himself. His retreats to find himself are noble, his abilities as a QB are legendary. But I think Aaron misses the whole point of humanity when he lies about being "immunized".
