This podcast is my way of having a flexible accountability buddy to read books about Indonesia, China, Colonialism, Imperialism, and many other things. I will be reading every night for 20 min with a 10 minute reflection time and hopefully, I'm not the only one who finds it interesting! But if not, that's cool too...

Welcome to my preface episode where I explain why I wanted to start this podcast :)
