Sunny and Mayank get behind the mic for the first time in-person since Episode #1. This one is coming straight from London.

We reflect on the Bottled Up journey so far, why we started and where we've come. We also take the mask off and share parts of our own personal story and what has shaped us.

We've got a lineup right through to the end of the year, so stay tuned and buckle up for weekly episodes. (👀)

In this episode we chat about:

🔥 The impetus for Bottled Up and rewinding the clock back to February 2020 when had our first dinner planning the podcast.

🔥 What has Sunny got planned? Leaving his job in Melbourne and travelling for the next few months, including what drove the decision.

🔥 The story behind how we became good friends with someone after a random encounter on the street (😮).

🔥 Mayank's 50km run in London.

🔥 + Both of us trying our luck at comedy.

Enjoy the listen and stay tuned for the guest line up over the coming days.
