Join Ali and Alec, coming to you from an indiscernible hole- possibly near you; you are here accidentally or otherwise having already taken the first step- the choice of curiosity. ‘How to enjoy indeed. Is enjoyability something that exists intrinsically within products of excellence? Or is it a choice we make, a hat we choose to put on. Is it possible that all things are already at least a little bit good. Or is it that enjoyment is relative? Relative to what? That is what we are here to answer. Perhaps, through diligent discussion and perhaps through impassioned screams, we are here to get to the bottom of happiness itself.

Should you be comforted by the warmth of your hatred, let us not dampen your embers. However, should you wish to seek the true fire that seeks to understand instead of dismiss, If you want to look closer, bark your passions with confidence and to have your opinions deep fried in as context- stay tuned.

How to Enjoy...
