FAISAL & SAM
About this episode

Welcome back to another ‘Chinwag and Natter’ session, where Faisal and Kaya dive into a lighthearted catch-up covering coffee obsessions, storm warnings, and the life lessons embedded in everyday routines. From exploring why coffee culture means so much, to debating the value of politeness, tradition, and even surviving hurricanes—this episode blends humor with genuine insight. Tune in for a relaxed chat that’s as comforting as your morning coffee, with a few unexpected stories along the way. And a special shoutout to our sponsor, the International Open University – where you can study at your own pace. Let’s dive in!
