038 - Fake life

Russian With Max
About this episode

In this Episode of our Russian Podcast I share with you my thoughts on why the virtual life sucks.

We want more comfort.

We want ease.

We tend to have things simpler and get services faster.

But have we ever thought why faster is better? Do not we lose ourselves and reality in this sea of binary signals?


Let's get our as**s outside and discuss it learning a few cool vocabulary words and phrases at the same time.
