Yes, yours truly is this week's guest. Not only is Ashwin Gopi back in the studio, he also took over hosting duties in order for me to appear as the guest. It was fun to be the guest and I'll be a guest again when I live-stream the 3rd year anniversary episode this Saturday.\nThis conversation was the official beginning of the 3rd year anniversary celebration. I was expecting Ashwin to hit me with neighborhood questions only, however, Ashwin said nah, and hit me with more amazing questions.\xa0\nRight from the beginning, I got to talk about what success looks like to me in the podcasting space. Embracing applying for grants, censorship, regulations & propaganda. It got deep and at the same time, we were still our usual satirical selves. Now if the question about restaurants had come before the pandemic, my answer would have been straightforward.\nIf you have a different take on my answers or would like to bring my attention to some podcasting regulations that I may have missed.
