In episode 61 of Lounge Ruminator, my long-time friend (and former drama teacher and boss), Fiona Finley, joins the podcast to explain her background in theatre, the value of the arts and why performance is great for kids. Have a listen! 🎙

@martinfeld how cool that you get to interview your friends :) I’m planning on inviting folks back into the podcast this year for repeat episodes, familiar faces seem to make for great, honest discussions.

@jasraj I’m grateful that they lend their time to me! You’re right that friends can lead to better discussions with greater rapport.

@martinfeld yeah, I've realised I enjoy inviting 'friends'/familiar folks onto the podcast - I used to think I had to keep finding more and more "new" people. It's important that running the podcast feels fun :)

@jasraj I just found your podcast! (I’ll have to check it out.) How do you feel about ENTPs such as me? 😜😂

Also while we’re talking podcasts, if you haven’t heard it, fellow Micro.blog users @canion and @Burk join me on one that we call @HemisphericViews!

@martinfeld haha, you extroverts bring balance to us introverts, Martin :) You ENTs are an interesting, intellectual bunch who come with some great strengths (there are lots of NTs over on IndieHackers, a forum where I’m a member).

Your podcast sounds cool, I’ll take a look :)

@Burk your site is amazing! I feel like I’m in Willy Wonka’s factory. From your /about page I notice that you’ve come off of some social platforms* - how does it feel to be off twitter?

*though I also see you’re still ‘in’ quite a few places 😬

@jasraj Thanks, much appreciated! I am quite happy to be off the majority of them! And not signing up for every new thing that comes out under the sun as in the past. I am still around a good bit, although most places I am merely existing, not super active.

@Burk That’s cool to hear. I seem to be spending less time on Twitter, too (I can imagine myself coming off of it for personal use, though it’s a key marketing channel for INF Club). I’m currently considering The Light Phone as part of my ongoing ‘digital minimalism’
