The Genuine Convos podcast

Out of the many ladies I know, Eva is one of the very few who has a rare feminine aura around her that is very welcoming and that I happen to appreciate a lot! A student of life, Eva is a kind and jolly person who can also school you about the dynamics of human nature. She studies psychology at university and is passionate about human nature, science, spirituality and ouija boards just to name a few. This episode is packed with interesting, deep and fun topics that I am glad I recorded to look back on and to share with the world. I am glad to be able to learn from and share moments with wonderful people like her and I hope y'all do as well 😄

This one really hit it home for me. Throughout this episode I realized the potential meaning of our existence. Perhaps we are all here to write our own stories and to fully appreciate and embrace the experience no matter if it's good or bad. After all, this is all just a big playground full of great actors, comedians, writers etc. If you had met Adbul a couple years back, he would have come across to you as a jolly and uplifting person, but as it happens, everyone has to go through the belly of the beast sooner or later. He is going through his hero's journey right now! A podcast at a pivotal point in his life, this episode gets into his mental health problems such as ADHD and bipolar disorder and how he copes with them. This is a very informative and reflective episode that made me appreciate mental health just that much more. We as a species are capable of being happy, healthy and strong at all times and I hope this episode helps you out on your mental health journey or just makes you realize the importance of it. ❤

A human being full of constant energy and positive vibes, Waseem Safi is a friend I met at the workplace despite the fact that we went to school together. But, as the saying goes, the right people appear at the right time. Damn true that! A conversation full of controversial topics and funny moments, the episode is well crafted and is a no hold bars genuine conversation. We get into debates about the COVID vaccine, shed some light on racism in the world and as Waseem likes to say, "talked a lot of shit". This episode is long overdue and I am very happy it finally took place. This man is a dynamite radiating in love and waiting to blast you with happiness. Enjoy!

I never thought I would have one of my coworkers on the podcast, but again, I am the guy who thinks reality is an illusion. Although I haven't known Jeyla for very long, small talks with her made it clear that she is very different from others. A person on the path to enlightenment and a great soul is the most fitting description I can think of to describe her. This episode is marked by some of the deepest talks I have had in my life. This is among the very few episodes that made me realize how much of a dumbass I am. She dissects various concepts easily and applies truths to everyday situations like nobody I have ever met. I am grateful for this opportunity and I hope the world enjoys this convo as much as I did.

A reunion of sorts, this podcast is me and one of the most real friend I had in my life, Mohamed Elsayyad, catching up and talking about some important issues dear to both of us. Mohamed is a brother from another mother who moved away to another province a couple years back, but we still talk and maintain that strong friendship through deep talks whenever we can. Some good laughs, deep talks and a nice sunset were the defining moments of this podcast. We go into talks about financial investments, finding your purpose in life, the side effects of the COVID vaccine and much more! If you're looking for something chill to listen to while relaxing, this might be the episode for you. Enjoy!!

This episode has a different vibe. The guitar playing in the background with the wind coming in on a hot day is what you can imagine for the environment of this episode. Mark Zhuang is a friend of mine who knows how to play almost about any instrument you can think of. He is an extremely talented and hardworking musician apart from being a wonderful human being. So, naturally as one would, I asked him to play my Fender CC-60S acoustic guitar throughout the episode to add some beautiful flavour to it. It turned out great! Kenneth Lai is a reserved person, for which I was hesitant to have him over on the podcast for a while. But university changed the man to become more confident and more outgoing than usual. Anish Singla has been on the podcast last summer, but the combination of guests this time speaks for itself. We all had a chemistry going on. Some deep and unusual topics were covered in this episode that I usually don't talk about. The episode had some funny moments about getting caught while masturbating, VR porn and roasting Kenneth! It was a good night! P.S. The audio may sound a little distorted in some very small segments throughout the episode due to us sharing the two microphones.

You might be wondering what is up with the name, well my guest on this episode wanted me to put this name which mean a Slavic healer rather than his real name. If you ask me, I think it makes the episode a little more mysterious 🧐 The episode is among the funniest I have ever done. You will hear me or my guest randomly laugh our asses off throughout the epsiode. The episode covers some deep topics along with some not so deep ones. The podcast episode would have been ten times better with a video, which will be incorporated in the future episodes, hint hint. I have had billions of sessions of deep talks about everything with this friend of mine, he has helped me become a better person and has been a great friend. I am excited to finally do a podcast with him and give the world an opportunity to hear this great and funny man. During the episode, we often talk about a cat my guest has and he distracts me with some funny gestures, so if you're wondering why I'm randomly laughing, its because of that. So without further ado, enjoy this gem and have a good time!

The first female guest of the podcast! Simran Sadhwani brings some much needed feminine energy to the show along with some wise words. Some significant questions that I have always wanted to ask the opposite gender has finally been asked. The convo has given me new insights into the female psychology, the importance of spirituality and the consequences of innovation. A radical thinker and traditional woman, Simran is a university student studying to become a doctor. She is everything that a good soul can mean and a good person can represent.

Also, this is the first episode with a video version available on YouTube.

Hard work and perseverance changes a boy into a man. Mohsin Ashfaq can tell you all about that. He is a Calgary based local artist who is clawing his way up the industry slowly but surely. Life was never easy for this fella, he moved to Canada as an early teen and did everything from distributing flyers to tough sales jobs just to support his family. When he decided to become a rapper, support was a luxury he didn't have. Nevertheless he keeps on going to this day trying to make a name out of himself by entertaining people with his music. Apart from that, he is also an avid martial arts practitioner and enthusiast. Boxing changed his life and made him who he is today. A fantastic night full of good talk about music production, martial arts and philosophy, I wouldn't want to have it any other way!

Let's go Calgary, let's support our local talents!

A very experienced and mature person, Hassan moved from Mauritius to Canada three years back in hopes of a better life. But the reality of his situation is far from that as of yet. He lost his father two years back from cancer but never really had his love in the first place. How hard is a boy's life without a father figure guiding him through the ups and downs of life? He answers all of these heartbreaking questions and shares many wild and insane stories from his past life. The episode also has a segment dedicated to him busting many prejudices against Islam and why people make it out to be a evil religion. He is also one of the few friends I have who has experimented with psychedelics and has benefitted tremendously from it. Tune in to hear one of his hair raising trips which made me shiver!
