Temporally Scripted
Ever notice how the people who claim to have all the answers usually have the most boring lives?
We spent our twenties in underground clubs and festival fields, then built businesses in Vietnam.
Now we're watching Western culture implode from 8,000 miles away.
From historical figures to simulation theory, from AI's impact to why clever people often end up miserable - we tackle questions that keep curious minds awake.
We're not experts claiming to have it all figured out, just two guys navigating a complicated world.
This isn't about optimisation or morning routines.
This is for people who know the best insights come from strange places.
New episodes of Temporally Scripted are available every Saturday.
Join your slightly questionable guides to personal growth.
Your reality might never be the same.
