下载节目文字版: TranscriptsThis episode isn’t about business tips or surface-level masculinity talk. It’s about pressure — the kind that turns men to stone or dust.“IRON MINDSET” it’s a contradiction. Strength wrapped in vulnerability. Discipline shaped by chaos. Success born out of doubt.We talk about more than just money, TikTok addiction, or spotting a business opportunity. We unravel the identity crisis of the modern man — numb from screens, lost in trends, and paralyzed by comfort. Mazen speaks like someone who doesn’t need to scream to be heard. He believes that most men are soft — they’re confused about what strength actually looks like.I appreciated this conversation deeply. It reminded me why I started this podcast in the first place — not for noise, not for viral moments, but for real exchanges that leave something behind.If you’ve ever built something alone.If you’ve ever felt like time was slipping through your hands faster than money.If you’ve ever doubted yourself quietly while others were shouting online — this one's for you.Timecodes:00:00 - intro02:40 - What stops people from being successful05:05 - Advice to your 18-year-old self06:25 - Time or money?07:20 - How to spot a good business idea08:25 - People buy feelings, not products12:00 - TikTok is the new heroin15:50 - What is Oakberry?20:15 - Do you really need to suffer to succeed?22:20 - Does new American Tariffs kill business?27:40 - "White money for black days"29:00 - What define a boy from the man37:30 - Are modern men getting softer?41:00 - Who are you, really?45:00 - It is easier to handle a business then a girlfriend 48:00 - Love vs Comfort55:00 - Say it fast!﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋👉 Like, comment, and subscribe for more insightful conversations on culture, entrepreneurship, and life as a foreigner in China. ﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋Follow our socials ---> YouTube 小红书 InstagramBooking, partnerships and contact -  i.tumasyants@protonmail.com

No.11🍷葡萄酒的秘密 | Peter about Wine Industry, Fame & Passion

No.11🍷葡萄酒的秘密 | Peter about Wine Industry, Fame & Passion

If you think wine is just a drink, think again. In this epic episode, Peter — a wine expert, entrepreneur, and the owner of Peter Lisicky Wine — pours out truths about wine, business, fame, and what really matters in life.We talked about passion, hard work, business struggles, social status, and chasing dreams.下载节目文字版: Transcripts There’s a kind of honesty in Peter’s story that you don’t hear often — the kind that comes from failing, trying again, and loving the process even when it’s painful.From wild wine tastings to unforgettable moments like Peter stopping a train to meet his wife (yes, a real train), this conversation kept surprising me. At times, I felt like we weren’t talking about wine at all — we were talking about life itself: how to recognize quality, how to respect the work behind great things, and how amateurs and professionals see the world so differently. There’s a real philosophy hidden inside this episode: it's not about whether something is easy or instantly impressive — it's about whether you can recognize the craftsmanship and heart that went into it.Wine, comedy, business, even relationships — it’s all connected. I came away from this talk inspired, a little buzzed on ideas (and maybe wine too 🍷), and reminded that no matter what you're chasing — whether it’s mastering a skill, building a business, or finding love — what you put in is what you get out. If you're someone who cares about doing things properly, about working for something meaningful, or if you just like hearing two people talk honestly about the beauty and chaos of it all — you’ll find a lot to love here.🕰️ Timecodes00:00 – Intro02:10 – How to define a good wine?09:55 – Where to look when evaluating wine14:00 – House That Jack Built: Wild wine flavors18:55 – Opening up wine like a ritual19:28 – "You’ll have the best podcast in China"23:16 – How to open wine: tips & fails24:20 – Meeting one of Tokyo's richest ladies27:33 – First sip: tasting notes30:52 – Testing continued35:32 – Non-alcoholic wine: genius or joke?39:00 – Why wine is the best drink41:00 – Hard work pays off44:53 – "I want to be famous"49:30 – Lies wine companies tell us55:30 – Advice for young entrepreneurs1:05:00 – Everything you sell should mean something1:06:00 – Peter Lisicky: Sabrage Master story1:15:00 – Opening sparkling wine like a boss1:26:00 – People are the same everywhere1:29:00 – Does hard work beat talent?1:33:00 – Advice on marriage1:40:30 – Stopping a train to meet his wife1:52:00 – Wine and pussies 1:58:00 – Comedy culture in China2:09:03 – Say it fast! 🎯 Watch this if you want to:-Learn how to truly appreciate wine (beyond just taste)-Understand what “professional passion” looks like-Hear crazy behind-the-scenes stories from the wine world-Get inspired to pursue what you love — with or without alcohol ﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋👉 Like, comment, and subscribe for more insightful conversations on culture, entrepreneurship, and life as a foreigner in China. ﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋﹋Follow our socials ---> YouTube 小红书 InstagramBooking, partnerships and contact -  i.tumasyants@protonmail.com

This episode is Part 1 of my conversation with Olayemi, a Nigerian podcaster and the host of HafrikTV with a deep understanding of communication, culture, and the struggles of being a foreigner.

Is AI really intelligent, or just an illusion of smartness?

We also tackle the mind-bending question: How do you program a concept of time? 00:00 - in vino veritas01:13 - game creation 06:00 - AI is not the real intelligence11:00 - workspaces are scared of ai 17:00 - VR life 22:00 - Neuralink and the future of ai 24:25 - how do you program a concept of time 29:25 - !SAY IT FAST!💭 My Thoughts on AI & the FutureAI is changing everything, but it’s not actually “intelligent”—it’s just a pattern machine. True intelligence requires consciousness, emotions, and self-awareness, things AI doesn’t have (yet).The real question isn’t if AI will replace jobs—it’s how we will adapt to a world where AI is part of our daily lives. VR and Neuralink could push us even further into a blended human-machine existence, where reality itself becomes a choice.And then there’s the concept of time—a fundamental part of human experience. Can AI ever truly understand time the way we do? Or will it always be just a sequence of numbers?🚀 Join us as we explore these deep, mind-expanding topics in this episode! Listen now!

In this episode, we dive deep into willpower, nicotine addiction, and the myths of quitting smoking with Sami. We break down typical nicotine junky behavior, how nicotine addiction works, and why nicotine replacement therapies like vapes and patches often fail. Sami shares his unique perspective on why some smokers struggle to quit and why relaxing and enjoying a cigarette might be part of the solution. 00:00 – The truth about willpower 01:30 – Recognizing nicotine junky behavior 04:00 – How nicotine addiction takes control 08:20 – Why nicotine replacements don’t work 13:00 – Vapes, nicotine patches, and their flaws16:30 – A controversial take: relax and enjoy the cigarette✔️ Understand That Nicotine Doesn’t Relieve Stress – It only relieves the stress that it created in the first place. The “calm” you feel after smoking is just withdrawal relief, not real relaxation.✔️ Willpower Isn’t Enough – Quitting is not about resisting cravings but about changing how you see smoking. If you still believe smoking helps you in any way, you’ll always feel like you’re sacrificing something.✔️ Shift Your Mindset from “Giving Up” to “Breaking Free” – If you think quitting is about deprivation, you’ll struggle. Instead, focus on how smoking controls you and how quitting actually gives you more, not less.✔️ Track Your Smoking Habits – When do you crave cigarettes the most? Morning coffee? After meals? Social settings? Understanding your triggers helps you break the automatic habit loop.✔️ Think Long-Term, Not Just About Quitting – Many ex-smokers relapse because they only focus on the initial quit phase. Instead, build a mindset where smoking is no longer an option in your life.Booking, partnerships and contact -  i.tumasyants@protonmail.com

In this episode, we welcome a male guest, Chris! He is a comedic content creator whose videos bring laughter, spark discussions, and resonate with audiences through his unique perspective on relationships, cultural differences between East and West, and more.

No.1🫸🏽I reject stereotypes | Cherry

No.1🫸🏽I reject stereotypes | Cherry

In this episode, Cherry and I bravely discussed what it truly means to be a "non-traditional woman." We not only explored how to break gender stereotypes and embrace our true selves but also delved deeper into why societal pressure makes us feel afraid. 💭As women, we are often expected to follow a certain mold, confined by others' expectations. But through this conversation, we hope to show more people that refusing to be defined and choosing our own path is both courageous and essential. 💪We talked about self-love and self-acceptance, realizing that self-recognition is the source of strength to resist external judgments. Traveling and having an open mindset allow us to rediscover the world and understand ourselves, giving us the courage to pursue true freedom and happiness. 🌍✨If you’ve ever felt troubled by society’s fixed perceptions of women, or if you’re searching for the courage to break free from limitations, we hope this conversation can be a guiding light on your journey—encouraging you to boldly make your own choices and live a life that defies definition! 🔥____________________________________Our first episode at the old studio, can't believe how much time passed!Cherry showed courage and bravery to talk about things that we always feel in the air but sometimes too scared to discuss. Even though I disagree with her on a lot of points, it is great that we can listen to each other.This podcast is a bridge between opinions, cultures and people.
