SPECIAL EPISODE: "OMG he's a creationist" - Thoughts On Life's Biggest Questions
Inspired by a couple of popular YouTubers who recently took to their own podcast to share about their worldview and a little about their own personal story — and because people are always asking (and making assumptions) about my worldview — I decided to record a special podcast episode talking about my own worldview and story. If this isn't your thing (or sounds boring) please feel free to skip this episode and catch up next week as we get back to business as usual (talking tech!). Otherwise, if you need a break from all the bad news lately and maybe wanna talk about some bigger, more important (and fun) issues, you're in the right place! We'll be exploring some big topics that might stretch your mind a little (like: why is there something rather than nothing?). Enjoy (and thanks for giving me a seat at the table in the free marketplace of ideas)!
