I did my best to take my conversation with Vishen in a fresh direction where he has normally not gone, as he shares. 

We delved into some meaningful points including:

• The formula that Vishen uses to tell remarkable stories and become a better speaker
• Strategies and tactics to memorize anything including grocery items, names, and long numbers
• I put Vishen on the spot to memorize 20 numbers I write down (and ask him to do it backwards!)
• His honest experience on Ayahausca and some freaky revelations that he stumbled upon during the experience
• much more
