Hey, it's your old pal slim. This is my podcast FAVES. Our journey, you and me, listening on your phone or computer, or smart speaker will be to seek out people I know, people I don't know yet, and have a conversation with them about something they love. Something they're passionate about. The goal would be to have a deeper connection with that person, learn about them, and become educated about their passion. Laugh with them. Maybe eat a sandwich together. I'm used to having bite sized relationships with people online and I want this podcast to help me change that.
