Oh yes, hello friends, welcome back to Modern Wisdom. Before we get into today's episode,

0:05.1

I wanted to give a big shout out to everyone who's gotten touch over the last week and a half or so

0:11.2

after I reposted a video I did on depression on the Modern Wisdom YouTube channel

0:16.1

and then subsequently the episode I did on Monday with Christoph about mental health in the

0:20.5

world of DJing. It's obvious that there is quite a big hunger out there for people to

0:27.8

think and learn and have the opportunity to reflect on others' experiences when it comes to

0:33.7

things like depression and anxiety and with that in mind I'm going to make a concerted effort

to try and find some more guests and have some very interesting discussions centered around that.

cycling through different periods within strength training. Here's analogies across from CrossFit

1:32.8

and weightlifting and some really good advice to do with kettlebell movements as well. So there's

1:37.1

a lot of stuff in here. Lots more episodes coming up soon as well. Lifehack 110. He was

1:44.1

we got sunny Webster. Mr. Sonny Webster is back. He will be back next week. I've already recorded

1:50.1

that video guide. Dean will be putting it together. So expect some big episodes coming up soon,

1:54.4

but for now please welcome Mr. Brett Jones.

2:13.4
