(Felix - Geocaching)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Felix as my guest. He shared with me his interest in geocaching as his hobby.
This is one of the hobbies that forces you to explore the outdoors and wanting to do more. Felix has done geocaching in many different countries around the world and enjoys the thrill of finding clues to discover the newest hidden location. Furthermore, this hobby has allowed Felix to do some good for the planet earth by picking up some trash along the way because he understands the importance of keeping the earth clean for the current generation and future generations.
Believe it or not but there a high probability that there’s a geocaching adventure in the city you currently live in. Are you up for the challenge?!

(Megan - Dice Stacking)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Megan as my guest. She shared with me her interest in dice stacking as her hobby.
Dice aren’t only used for board games or gambling, there’s a relatively new way to use dice, and that’s stacking them. It’s more challenging than it looks. Before the interview, I gave it a try and couldn’t even get one die in the cup. Megan continuously challenges her self by trying new tricks to stack these dice. At this point, she can even stack dice with both hands at the same time and even blindfolded. The cool thing about dice stacking is that you can challenge yourself and stack it on almost anything. As Megan and I discussed, it might not be a good idea to stack the dice on the family dog.

(Deshawn - Bowling)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Deshawn as my guest. He shared with me his interest in bowling as his hobby.
Physics is your friend, your body is the only challenger to make the laws of physics work out for you. In this case, I’m talking about how the laws of physics apply to bowl. If done right, you can strikes a perfect game if everything was done to perfection. My guest Deshawn, almost achieve this by getting all strikes except for the first one. I have no doubt that he will soon get a perfect game, maybe even a few! Interestingly enough the bowling gen runs in Deshawn’s family. According to Deshawn, it’s only a few years after he picked up the hobby that he learned that his father also enjoys the activity. Now his new challenge is to beat his father in a bowling game.

(Slavicka - Hula Hoop Dancing)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Slavicka as my guest. She shared with me her interest in hula hoop dancing as her hobby.
Hula hoops may seem like a simple circle at first but it has the capability to get your body moving. For Slaicka, she enjoys combining hula hooping with dancing because it allows her to get a full-body workout and also groove to some awesome tunes. One of Slvicka’s biggest challenges with hula hooping was to work on her patience and trying to master a move right away. However like everything in life, the more you do it, the better you will become and you might even end up creating something completely different and make it your own.

(Curt - Painter)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Curt as my guest. He shared with me his interest in painting as his hobby.
Deep down inside there’s a Bob Ross in all of us, you just need a little spark of inspiration and maybe a happy tree. Curt pulls a lot of inspiration from Bob Ross’s work but likes to add his personal touch to it to make it more of his own taste and that pretty much the whole concept of being a passionate artist. If you want to get started with painting but don’t know where to start, you can do what Curt did and buy a Bob Ross kit on Amazon, because the first step is always giving it a try.

(Justin - Disc Golf)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Justin as my guest. He shared with me his interest in disc golf as his hobby.
Why limit yourself to traditional golf when you can try new ways to get a hole in one? With that being said Justin enjoys to play golf with a disc, hence the name of disc golf. The cool part about this sport/ hobby is that you can pretty much play it anywhere outside, heck you can even play it indoors if you want to break a few things. Unlike traditional golf, the wind plays a more significant role on the movement of the disc so it's important to find the right time to throw or else you might lose your disc and find someone else while you’re searching for your own disc.

(Dustin - Video Game Sprite / Pixel Art)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Dustin as my guest. He shared with me his interest in video game sprite and pixel art as his hobby.
Remember that Italian plumber that jumps on turtles and absorbs the power of stars? Well he had a simple pixel beginning and Dustin enjoys video games that use pixel art. Dustin enjoys improving the look of pixel art to give it a new or enhanced look and energy. Now this isn't just restricted to simply characters, it also includes world maps. Anything can be made into pixel art, it’s up to you and your imagination to see what you create.

(Dustin - Archery)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Dustin as my guest. He shared with me his interest in archery as his hobby.
Archery has allowed Dustin to connect to his routes and learn more about his ancestor. He mentions that in combat bow arrows can do something that guns can’t do. Do you know what that is? Arrows can curve and hit targets behind other objects, unless you’re from the movie Wanted, I’m pretty sure guns can’t do that . We can’t all be Robin Hood, Katniss Everdeen, Hawkeye, Legolas or Cupid. But if you keep practicing, you can get pretty close.

(Justin - Whip Cracking)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Justin as my guest. He shared with me his interest in whip cracking as his hobby.
Do you hear that? That’s the sound to the sound barrier being broken by a whip. Physics plays an interesting role with a whip and its even powerful enough to snap a can of pop in half. Justin enjoys to play around with the whip, he doesn’t simply fling his arm to crack the whip, he tries to do more and more complexe and cool tricks. He can crack whips with 2 hands, flip them, role it off his neck. He has a lot of tricks up his sleeves, well in this case he has those tricks in his hands. Go check out this Instagram to see all the awesome things he tried with whips.

(Spencer - Fencing)
In this episode, I had the honour to have Spencer as my guest. He shared with me his interest in fencing as his hobby.
I challenge you to a duel. I’m almost certain that I would lose that duel but I will try my best to use a good poker face behind the mask to fool you. The one person who is always up for a challenge/ duel is Spencer the Fencer. Spencer enjoys using the saber sword when it comes to fencing. If you don’t know what saber is, then I guess you’ll have to listen to this episode. That is honestly the best way to learn more and I’m sure you want to hear Spencer talk about me rather than me.
