Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how’s it going?

    After resisting for years I’m finally starting to come around to the concept of podcasts. I have a relatively short walk to work and have started listening to a podcast by a psychologist to see if I can learn any techniques for combating some pretty insistent negative mental habits.

    Day one and I’m starting the day in a much better frame of mind. The thought of celebrating with a cheese scone may have something to do with that though, lol.

      Oh man I remember when I first tried podcasts because I would get sleepy driving back from work. Used to listen to Joe Rogan about 6 or so years ago, and then he started having certain guests come on…

      I find “Stuff You Should Know” to be quite a good one for some interesting facts :)

        No such thing as a fish is the first one I tried but I’m a completionist so have to do them all from the beginning. My queue is currently a mile long but I’ll add your recs to it, thanks

      Podcasts are great! Also audio books.

      I never got into cheese scones though. I don’t know why, just not my thing I think.

          I’ve had the best cheese scone in Wellington (says my colleagues) and it was meh, so unless your mum’s cheese scones taste like cake or something then I probably still wouldn’t like them that much.

          They are ok, but not my thing I think.
