| 0:16.3 | We're joined today by a Serbian based in China, Nick Stankovic, who's got a lot of interesting things to |
| 0:23.1 | say when it comes to geopolitics, tech and the world. Welcome to the podcast, Nick. |
| 0:29.7 | Glad to be here, finally. I've been following you for a while. Oh, very cool. Yeah. And I've been |
| 0:35.7 | catching your stuff as well. Your ex-feed is a great resource. I was catching up to your interview recently on S.L. Canton's Twitter space. He's been on my podcast, and I was recently on one of his Twitter spaces. And just real quick, before touching on a number of issues, tell us real quick, sort of your background and how you went from Serbia to China via the United States. |
