1: Intro | The Armen Show
Episode 1 of The Armen Show podcast in the building
I had “That Guy Named Armen” as my previous podcast, but this is a new iteration
I didn’t backup the files for the last one so I think they’re gone
This show is separate from The Armen Show vlog on Youtube of the same name, but it is the same theme
Through my words maybe you can understand my story and interests
Guests will be on the show like on “That Guy Named Armen” podcast
I interview science authors on my blog as well
If you have questions let me know
I like science, neuroscience mostly, cognitive, and biology and related fields like economics and systems theory or things of such nature that represent the universe
Enjoy the episode and future ones
