041 - I don't have time for that

Russian With Max
About this episode

 Why we always have no time for something?

Is this because we really do a lot of stuff that bring us happiness?

Or it's just a form of avoiding ourselves, suffering, and lack of prioritization?

In today's Russian podcast I'm trying to discuss this questions with...ahem, myself as usual. However Max (the second one xD) has got some good thoughts about it and would be happy to hear your experience!

This podcast is for learning Russian (A2\lower intermediate and above). My goal is to get you involved in the Russian language through interesting, fun, educational, and controversial topics. I speak clear and slow, explaining words in Russian to build your strong Russian foundation and help you on your way to understand real Russian (TV-shows, movies, podcasts, etc).
