The following is a conversation I had with a guy in Connecticut, United States. He just graduated from Yale University, he studied computer science and psychology and is working Google creative labs. He is a music composer, software engineer, language lover, and overall thinker. He plays god knows how many instruments, we spoke Chinese to each other briefly, he also experience synesthesia, and for those who don't know what that is. We talked about working at Google, he process of writing music, languages, synesthesia, death, consciousness, the relationship between automation and psychology, and the necessity and inter-relationship between creatives and problem solvers. This is one of more interesting conversations I've had.

The following is an interaction I had with this guy from Wisconsin America. He is very interested in hunting, guns and history. During the interaction he showed me his gun collection and I learned a lot about the technical details about these machinery.
Since this interaction largely involved him showing me all sorts of cool guns, you would probably get the most of it by watching the video version of the podcast. So if you'd like to, head on over to the Youtube channel, the handle and link should be in the description.

In todays episode I had a brief but insightful conversation with a girl in Honduras. She is a Uni student studying a double degree of International business and International Relations, and she’s studying Arabic, Mandarin, Russian and German along with her degree. In this conversation, we talked about language, spirituality, relationships and the outlook on life. Unfortunately Omegle decided to freeze and not come back half way through the exchange. Luckily we exchanged social media before hand and was able to hop on FaceTime and talked for 3 more exciting hours. In that conversation we talked about extra terrestrial life, the concept of time and memories and how deal with human’s intrinsic desire to seek eternity while nothing in the universe is eternal.
