I welcome to the podcast, my friend Audrey Abshire, who's recently moved back home from taking a year off to travel. We catch up and dive deep into some of her experiences and discover the world as she saw through her eyes, her lessons learned through yoga, and what it felt like to discover herself.

In this episode, I share my thoughts on the importance of sports, and particularly on the awesome execution of bringing the sporting world together in a bubble and during a pandemic, as displayed by the NBA and its athletes, and the sporting communities in general. As humans, no matter how evolved we claim we may be, we are reduced to our baser instincts of "tribalism". Sports bring us together, make us one, connected family of misfits, internationals, social disparities and everything.

I welcome back my dear friend, Leo, who's recently been crowned the new baby daddy of Itaim Bibi and has been blessed by the birth of a new baby girl. He shares his new learnings on parenting and compares what it was like being raised by his mother. We switch it up with a discussion on taxation and then dabble into the recent UFC showdown between Israel Adesanya and Brazil's local hero Paulo Costa.

Here, Zia and I attempt to explain at a basic level, the challenging tasks of building programs and algorithms that can help in making predictions. Some of these programs have become such an integral part of our lives that we don't even realize how much our day to day routine has improved or changed over the last decade. Yet, challenges persist. We close this section off with a prelude to our next episode together by throwing some light on the importance of data security and some of the tools that we may use to improve it. And just for fun, we start with getting a first hand 411 on what its like to get a Korean Massage, without which one can not say they've fully experienced Korea.

In today's episode, I welcome my adopted brother and dear friend Andrew Duval to share some of his knowledge of whiskeys and somehow, we end up touching upon family life, brain elasticity, and basically growing up to life's new challenges.

Here, I talk about why I believe Johnny Cash's rendition of "Hurt" made famous by one of my favorite artists the Nine Inch Nails, is not a call for help nor is it a suicide note. Some songs are just meant to be covered, and this one here, made me stand up and respect Johnny Cash for his contribution to the world of music.

In this episode, I connect the dots between a growing concern in tech circles about human redundancy and job loss due to the growth in AI and AI based technology, with an episode in an ancient TV series that gave birth to a formidable sub-culture and raised questions about the need for human intervention DESPITE said technology. Live long and prosper everyone.

Part 2 of our series with my old friend Eric, who's looking at ways to get his new life back in order, and we talked about several ways one can, for free, market themselves or their product. Along the way we veered off track to reminisce the good old days in Long Beach where our dear friend Aiv would fulfill his 2fast3furious dreams.

In this episode, I welcome one of my dearest friends Eric. We catch up after what feels like an eternity, and reminisce over life and things that were, and then dive right into his time recently in one of California's correction facilities. Eric tells us what it was like for him from day 1, his lessons learned, and we attempt to find humor in tragic circumstances. The difficult questions must always be asked, even if it is with someone close; a family member or even a dear friend. Part 1 of a series of podcasts with Eric.

Aujourd'hui, je discute si on a encore la démocratie malgré les mauvaises informations partagés par les réseaux sociaux et les médias, particulièrement pendant les élections ou même une pandémie. C'était un exercice en français.
