Best Podcast Ever
I have been listening to this podcast in place of songs during my university commute since 2022. It has provided me with so much information and has helped me keep conversations going. This podcast has significantly improved my daily drive to work, making it more enjoyable. Since graduating and starting my career as a software engineer, this podcast has also enhanced my articulation skills and inspired me to conduct my own research on various topics.
Keep up the great work, guys! I would love to enjoy you all in person if I ever move to the USA.
Best regards,
