I am Polish, too, by the way. Anyyyyway… Great show - my biggest problem with this and other 5by5 podcasts is that you guys somehow started substituting my real-life friends - which leaves me pretty exposed with all my friends-eggs in one 5by5 basket… Anyyyway…. Merlin is an Alan Watts of productivity while Dan is, well, Dan is just a mountain of cool. A big mountain of a really cool cool. Anyyway….. Love you, mean it, keep up the great work!!!! Greetings from Basel / Switzerland!
Great team!

In every episode there is something I find helpful and "inspiring". (Sorry for that 2nd one, Merlin!). Personally, Merlin Mann has been one of my most important (online) discoveries in the last few years. Which reminds me: I should not be here, writing this... So I'm off to do the hard stuff & work on something I care about.

This two guys always find interesting topics to talk about and often it also gets rather philosophical concerning the things that really matter in life. Just love it!
