    What is Getting It?: In a Nutshell

    A conversation where we explore topics both familiar and unfamiliar to us to find out what makes them interesting, so that we can expand our horizons and further our understanding of the world and people around us.
    From science to lifestyle design, languages to religion, plus everything in between - anything can be interesting if exposed to you through the right lens. We hope to spark your curiosity through open-minded and thoughtful discussion, as well as a healthy dose of overthinking.

  • Intentionally Enjoying the Present Moment - Shower Thoughts 🚿 ep. 17

    We explore the idea of quantifying and categorising personality traits and how we would interact with the objective inverse of our personality. We also think about whether this quantification is a bad thing, whether it's already happening and whether it's inevitable considering our ever-increasing interaction with technology and AI.

    In Shower Thoughts we overthink those random questions and life-changing thoughts we frequently have in the shower and maybe come to a conclusion, all in a casual conversation.
