Jonny & Yusef join me for the first episode of the new year as we ask each other what would we tell ourselves 10 years ago.
If you were given a 30 second phone call to yourself 10 years ago, what would you say? Buy Bitcoin? Learn to meditate? End that relationship? Do not dye your hair blonde?
Today you get to hear us crack under the pressure of an imaginary phone call to our younger selves and then reflect on everything we've learned.

0:00.0 | Oh yes, hello friends, welcome to a new year and a new decade for that matter. |
0:06.5 | It is the first modern wisdom after the Christmas break and we've come back with what might |
0:11.3 | be my favourite ever topic. |
0:14.0 | What I would tell my 18 year old self. |
0:18.4 | This one is almost difficult to hear. |
0:22.4 | It's weird to say things and hear advice come out of your own mouth which kind of scares |
0:29.4 | you a little bit. |
0:30.9 | But yeah, I really enjoyed this episode looking at the similarities between what myself, |
0:35.8 | Johnny and Yusuf have learned over the last 10 years, drawing the common lessons that |
0:40.8 | we've made and also the unique ones as well. |
0:43.3 | We even gave ourselves the opportunity to call younger us and tell them something for 30 |
0:51.3 | seconds, which again, we're weirdly felt really pressured even though it wasn't real. |
0:56.5 | I felt like I'm under a lot of pressure and Johnny's phone call was far better than mine |
0:59.9 | in Yusuf's because he went last. |

1:04.2 | I would want me 10 years ago to get a phone call from Johnny on balance. |
1:08.3 | But yeah, what an absolutely epic way to start the new year of programming off with. |
1:13.4 | I know that you want as much Johnny and Yufus as much Johnny and Yufus as you can get your |
1:20.3 | hands on and I promise I'm going to try and tie them down to the couch so that we can |
1:24.9 | push as many good episodes out as we can across 2020. |
1:28.2 | And finally, I'm going to guess that as you listen to this episode, there will be a number |
1:33.0 | of people that come into your mind who you think that person really, really needs to hear |
