Aasif Mandvi: Getting out of my own head
Actor, writer and comedian Aasif Mandvi has given us so many laughs in his role as a correspondent on The Daily Show – on stage and in television and films. But when a doctor diagnoses him with tinnitus (ringing in the ears), he has to come to terms with his own vulnerability and the unpredictability of life. This eventually leads him to imagine a world with more possibilities, including falling in love – when he asks himself, "What could life be like, if I wasn't trapped in my own head?"

Heart-warming stories calm one’s mind
The channel provide inspiring stories from people with a wide background. I have listened to about 10 episodes. I especially love that they invited non-native English speakers to share their experiences gained from living/traveling in different countries. Also there are artists, scientists, businessmen, meditators, so many more. The background music help the stories become vivid. Thank you for making them.
