Getting It
By Subaan Qasim & Daniel Redfearn
Hosted by Daniel Redfearn and Subaan Qasim, we explore topics both familiar and unfamiliar to us to find out what makes them interesting, so that we can expand our horizons and further our understanding of the world and people around us.
From science to lifestyle design, languages to religion, plus everything in between - anything can be interesting if exposed to you through the right lens. We hope to spark your curiosity through open-minded and thoughtful discussion, as well as a healthy dose of overthinking.

Dan talks about his recent new-found enjoyment taken from going to art galleries.

Manaus: A City in the Amazon Rainforest - Manaus Reflections pt. 2
After a preamble about work setups and how the sun is increasing our drive to learn new things, Dan describes what a city in the middle of the Amazon rainforest is like.
Unfortunately, Subaan's microphone stopped recording at around the ~31 minute mark, so you'll have to listen to Dan speaking to himself and imagine what Subaan is saying 🥴

Conditional vs. Unconditional Gift Giving - Shower Thoughts 🚿 ep. 20
