(Frankie - Walking)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Frankie as my guest. He shared with me his interest in walking as his hobby.
Definition: Walking (also known as ambulation) is one of the main gaits of terrestrial locomotion among legged animals. Walking is typically slower than running and other gaits. Walking is defined by an 'inverted pendulum' gait in which the body vaults over the stiff limb or limbs with each step. This applies regardless of the usable number of limbs—even arthropods, with six, eight, or more limbs, walk. Wikipedia contributors. (2022, November 11). Walking. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 01:57, November 22, 2022, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Walking&oldid=1121321933

Ep.215 Let’s Animate Life! (Daniel - Indie Animation)
Sunday Feb 26, 2023
Sunday Feb 26, 2023
(Daniel - Indie Animation)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Danielas my guest. He shared with me his interest in making indie animation as his hobby.
Definition: Animation is a method by which still figures are manipulated to appear as moving images. In traditional animation, images are drawn or painted by hand on transparent celluloid sheets to be photographed and exhibited on film. Today, most animations are made with computer-generated imagery (CGI). Computer animation can be very detailed 3D animation, while 2D computer animation (which may have the look of traditional animation) can be used for stylistic reasons, low bandwidth, or faster real-time renderings. Other common animation methods apply a stop motion technique to two- and three-dimensional objects like paper cutouts, puppets, or clay figures. Wikipedia contributors. (2022, November 16). Animation. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 01:49, November 22, 2022, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Animation&oldid=1122146848

Ep.212 The Story Will Guide You (Luke - Creative Writing)
Sunday Nov 27, 2022
Sunday Nov 27, 2022
(Luke - Creative Writing)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Luke as my guest. He shared with me his interest in creative writing as his hobby.
Definition: Creative writing is any writing that goes outside the bounds of normal professional, journalistic, academic, or technical forms of literature, typically identified by an emphasis on narrative craft, character development, and the use of literary tropes or with various traditions of poetry and poetics. Due to the looseness of the definition, it is possible for writing such as feature stories to be considered creative writing, even though they fall under journalism, because the content of features is specifically focused on narrative and character development. Wikipedia contributors. (2022, August 4). Creative writing. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 17:48, August 17, 2022, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Creative_writing&oldid=1102410145

Ep.210 Taking The First Look (Tiffany - Beta Reader)
Sunday Sep 25, 2022
Sunday Sep 25, 2022
(Tiffany - Beta Reader)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Tiffany as my guest. She shared with me her interest in being a beta reader her hobby.
Definition: A beta reader is usually a test reader of an unreleased work of literature or other writing (similar to beta testing in software), who gives feedback from the point of view of an average reader to the author. A beta reader provides advice and comments in the opinions of an average reader. This feedback is used by the writer to fix remaining issues with plot, pacing, and consistency. The beta reader also serves as a sounding board to see if the book has had the intended intellectual and/or emotional impact on the target market.
Wikipedia contributors. (2022, February 1). Beta reader. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 17:21, August 17, 2022, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Beta_reader&oldid=1069189756

Ep.209 Intertwine These Lines In Your Mind (Badriya - Poetry)
Sunday Aug 28, 2022
Sunday Aug 28, 2022
(Badriya - Poetry)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Badriya as my guest. She shared with me her interest in poetry as her hobby.
Definition: Poetry (derived from the Greek poiesis, "making"), also called verse, is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and often rhythmic qualities of language − such as phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre − to evoke meanings in addition to, or in place of, a prosaic ostensible meaning. A poem is a literary composition, written by a poet, using this principle. Wikipedia contributors. (2022, July 6). Poetry. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia.

Show schedule update
Tuesday Aug 23, 2022
Tuesday Aug 23, 2022
Hello everyone,
So my wife and I are expecting our second child soon and running a podcast while raising 2 children might be a little challenging to release new episodes every week as I did for the last 4 years. The good news is that the show is not ending, I'm just going to be releasing a new episode at the end of every month. So after this week's episode (end of August), the next one will be released at the end of September and then the next one at the end of the following month and so forth. Eventually, I would like to get back to once a week but that will be happening later on in the future.
My family is very important to me and I can not wait to spend more time with them and try out any hobby my children pick up. Since this is a one-man show (recording, producing, editing and marketing) I want to make sure I provide you all with quality content and for now it will be best if I release once a month (for now).
I want to say thank you for all the support after all these years! I've truly loved this journey and can not wait to learn more about all your hobbies. With this being said, by all means, feel free to reach out to me if you want to come to share your hobby :)
Thank you,
