Poking Life

This week I sit down and chat with my friend Peter. We talk about taking the T during coronavirus, Peter's job at Joslin Diabetes center, his long-standing (10 years) volunteer experience with the Marfan Foundation, life with Loeys-Dietz, some good old beantown sports talk, and a bunch more. If you're inspired by Peter's work with the Marfan Foundation like I was, you can donate here to support volunteers like him across the country. Enjoy! https://give.marfan.org/give/85796/#!/donation/checkout

This week I sit down to speak with my Mom or as some of my friends call her "Young Nance". We talk about her life, what it was like raising me, why I abandoned a life of crime, what her life was like before me, and the best thing that EVER happened to me! Lots of great stuff. Brings a tear to my eye thinking back on it. Hope you enjoy!

This week we sit down with for episode #6 with my long-time friend Jeffriel. We talk growing up in the same neighborhood in Malden, elaborate conspiracy theories, Aliens, his endeavors into rapping & producing, an epic Bitcoin eureka moment, and much more! This one is an interesting one for sure

In this episode I talk to my boy Spargo. Spargo and I were roommates back in college. We talk Sabout what's been going on in his life since then. We covered his move to China, his life as a teacher in China, settlers of Catan, WeChat, authoritarianism in the age of coronavirus, Spargo's favorite bit of history, and lots more. Enjoy!

In this week's episode I sit down (virtually) with my good friend Dom. I worked with Dom at my previous job. He's a great guy and a bonafide wordsmith. We talk sales, veganism, Yang Gang, and some Donald Trump v Joe Biden. Dom's a lot of fun to chat with, he brings a lot of great energy to the table and has some interesting perspectives. Enjoy!

This week we have Andrew Terenzi on the pod! Terenzi has been one of my best friends since 7th grade so it was great to catch up with him for a bit. We covered a ton of interesting topics from data engineering and data privacy to the internet hivemind. This is the longest episode yet with lots to cover and I think it's a super interesting one. Enjoy!

In episode number 2 I chat it up with my good friend Conor. Conor is one of the coolest, most interesting guys I've ever met. We talk about garnishing cocktails, blending cow hearts, biosynthetic pacemakers, super rare diseases, life as a newlywed, coronavirus (duh), Bitcoin (duh), UBI, the Yang Gang, and the future of gaming. *Note - Still working on some audio sync issues but I think the volume is better. Also, made a mistake about Costco's vodka brand, I was thinking of some other generic brand.

Thanks for checking out the pilot episode. I thought I'd talk with one of my best friends Dan and his dad Mats. Mats has an extensive background in neuroscience and molecular biology -- I also heard from Dan he has some interesting theories on COVID-19. So, I thought it would be fun to chat with him about it. Dan knows his stuff too so I asked him to join. In the episode we cover Mats' love for science, his journey to the USA, what he and Dan think of coronavirus, Bernie Sanders, climate change, how Reagan destroyed the pharmaceutical industry, and shorting stocks/buying Bitcoin (not financial advice).
