Thank you

Hey guys, thanks a lot for what you're doing with this podcast! It opens up many interesting perspectives not only on how to approach physical and mental fitness, but life in general. Love to listen to all of you and majority of your guests. I think in last episodes of volume II though it was bit too difficult to grasp the main point of the talk. I also found it cool when you shared some scientific researches and historical facts in volume I; missed it in volume II. Looking forward to see how this channel evelolves if it continues. Once more, thanks for great work!
