| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to this episode of the ESG Fitness Podcast, which is a Q&A episode that I am |
| 0:07.1 | recording alone because I've been so unbelievably flaky because I have horrendous vertigo. |
| 0:15.3 | Do you know what? It's probably not horrendous vertigo. It's probably quite mild vertigo. |
| 0:19.7 | But it's very annoying and I don't really know when it's going to come on and I feel okay now. |
| 0:23.6 | So I just thought, bam, I'll click record. |
| 0:25.6 | Because we have incredible questions from the Commit Six group, which I will get onto. |
| 0:31.6 | But what's been quite interesting about this vertico experience, which I would highly not recommend to anyone, and |
| 0:39.0 | haven't figured out what is actually wrong with me yet. So obviously I shall report back. |
| 0:45.4 | But the only thing that's making me not feel sick is like constantly, and I mean, I'm |
| 0:52.0 | not actually sure what's cracking as well oh it was that bottle um |

| 1:31.0 | which I have to say didn't massively help the vertigo because something spinning around in front of you, |
| 1:38.6 | shockingly, like, wasn't actually that fun. |
| 1:41.5 | Anyway, I made an amazing cup, if I do so, so myself. But I did think |
| 1:46.1 | what was quite interesting about this is, I guess, like now that I'm very much aware of |
| 1:52.9 | cognitive biases, because I love reading about them and I find them so interesting, right? So |
| 1:57.2 | these are these kind of weird human nature things that everybody does that don't |
| 2:02.4 | really make that much sense. And I noticed a few of these as I was making this cup, right? So it's |
| 2:10.4 | 50 pounds to do the pottery class. And then if you want the cup that you've now, or like whatever you've made, might be a bowl of a cup, whatever. |
