Life Math Podcast Iskren Vankov and Iliya Valchanov

The Lord of the Rings has flabbergasted many generations.

Iskren and Maria met at Oxford and realized they were two kids which were overly excited about LOTR.

And they still are.

Iliya, on the other hand, is not convinced that LOTR is the best thing ever.

In this episode, Iskren and Maria will do everything to prove that LOTR is worth the hype.

Amazon Prime TV Series: 'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' is coming up on Sep 2.

Make sure you (re)watch LOTR before that.

Recording date: 8 Oct 2021.

In this episode we discuss a number of interesting ideas around Flow, Process, Theory of Motivation and much more.

It is a great starting point for anyone who is remotely interested in Philosophy.

Useful links that came out of the conversation:

Here's a long awaited episode - a collection of bloopers.

To give more context, while recording our other episodes, we obviously really wanted to talk about Formula 1. We came back to it a couple of times and most of them turned out to be classic bloopers.

We are considering doing a full episode on F1 and this is a teaser for it, I guess.

How much does an NFT cost?

The most expensive NFT so far has been sold for $69.3 million.

NFT... What? Why?

We researched a bit and tried to understand.

Then we minted (created) some NFTs.

Then we sold some.

In the end, we built a platform where you can gift NFTs (to yourself or to others).

This is your 20min intro to NFTs.

Iskren and Iliya are replaced by voice overs (Giulia and Masha respectively).

These are the voices in their heads that tell them what to do anyways.  

The show discusses the feedback that Life Math Podcast received in its first season and promises to address it:
Better voices (thus the voiceover thing)New people (guests on the show)Shorter episodesThat is also what you should expect in the future!

Have fun!
