"In episode 24 of 'Across The Pond,' Wyatt and Julien dive headfirst into the rapidly evolving world...
In this week's podcast, Wyatt and Julien discuss mental health. These conversations are never easy, especially between 2 duuuuuudes but we attempted it.
Today's episode is mainly around MOTIVATION but Wyatt insisted on calling it FLOW.
Is there any tasks you do where time just dissapears? For Julien, this happens with coding and editing. For Wyatt, it's still a bit unclear.
There's also a Hinge Hot Singles tangent post outro so listen till the end...
In this week's episode, Wyatt is recording from Honduras and Julien from Paris.

- What's your biggest purchase? any regrets?
- Have you ever been conned out of money? hacked online?

PS: not sure why Wyatt is fixating on Julien's cardigan..
PPS: Wyatt edited the wrong episode so we're out of sync chronologically...

Should you point out when someone is quiet? (NOOO)
These are some the questions we will defo not answer super clearly...
Before releasing brand new episodes from next week (including 2 in-person episodes!), we put together our best bits from the first 10 episodes.
The day has finally come for Julien (and Wyatt) to discuss musicals.
Wyatt has only ever seen one musical (embarrassing am I right?) so he was thrilled to listen to Julien ramble on about his favourite musicals...
#musicals
Happy New Year dear listeners!
Wyatt insisted on talking about aliens this week and the conspiracy theories around them. Julien had very little to say about them or about travelling to other galaxies but do tune in and ask yourself whether aliens would be friendly or not?

This week's episode is called lower case dreams upper case dreams... what could that mean? You'll have to listen I guess...
Lucky you dear listener, 3 in 1 topics this week: workout routine, gym etiquette and supplements.
Wyatt has followed the same workout routine for the past 12 years whilst Julien focuses on learning new skills to stay motivated, which approach do you relate with the most?
Should you speak to fellow gym-goers? should you take supplements?
You probably won't come up with an answer after listening.
