This week on the Colin and Samir podcast, we talk about a day that we never expected would come.

We recorded this episode on Colin's 30th birthday. Colin and I met when we were 22 years old,

and we've been working together ever since. Our 20s have been filled with experimentation,

successes, failures, and a lot of

adventures along the way. On this episode, we reflect on the past 10 years, the work we've done

together and mostly the decisions that define the decade for Colin. There were a few unexpected

moments while we were recording. We had a brief weather interruption, which you'll hear in the beginning of the episode, and a phone call from Collins' mom that we actually

recorded and decided to conclude in a bridged version towards the end of the episode. So stay tuned

for that. All right, so here's our conversation that we recorded on Collins' 30th birthday.

All right, so here it is.

Are you going to sing me happy birthday on the podcast?

No, I mean, I sang you happy birthday a lot in the past week.

Just happy.

No, stop, stop, stop.

Okay, all right, stop, stop.

I shouldn't have brought it up.

Yeah, you shouldn't have brought it up.

I can just always count on you to make sure that everyone is singing me happy birthday.

If anyone has a birthday anywhere around you, I mean, yeah, I don't, it's fine. I'm not going to complain about it.

Look, I appreciate things that bring people together. Yes, you do. And like, you know, we're sitting in that coffee shop this morning and I tell the girl, it's his birthday. She said, happy birthday.

She's excited.

It just gives you a reason to connect, you know, it's exciting.
