What can we expect from you as a member of the Perazim Podcast?
I don’t know. I don’t even know what to expect from me tomorrow. What I can promise is that I will try my utmost to make it an enjoyable experience for the listener. Whether that’s by not taking it too seriously, taking it more seriously than it needs to be or by shutting up completely. I am here to please. 

How would friends and acquaintances describe you?
That depends, if they think I will hear it or not. In all seriousness I would like to think that they would describe me as someone that is slowly becoming more comfortable in who he is and more open to the world and its different ideas. 

When do you feel most creative?
Rather annoyingly just as I am about to fall asleep. Often keep a pen and paper by the side of the bed so that I can note down ideas. Somehow though, those same life altering ideas don’t seem so brilliant when I wake up the next day. That being said I will always stand by the phone toaster invention. 

Who has had the strongest influence in your life?
In some shape or form every person I have ever met has had an impact, whether they entered my life for the positive or negative they played a part in making me who I am today. Needless to say I have a number of complaints to make, I mean why couldn’t they make me 6ft tall and really good at basketball?!? 

What is success for you?
Put simply, whenever I can achieve peace of mind. I have learnt that no matter what external success you may have attained it holds little value if you have not achieved inner tranquility. That and when I make people laugh. Nothing better than knowing you have made someone happy.
