(Dancia  - Board Games)   In this episode, I had the honour of having Dancia as my guest. They shared with me their interest in board games as their hobby.   Definition: Board games are tabletop games that typically use pieces. These pieces are moved or placed on a pre-marked board (playing surface) and often include elements of table, card, role-playing, and miniatures games as well. Many board games feature a competition between two or more players. To show a few examples: in checkers (British English name 'draughts'), a player wins by capturing all opposing pieces, while Eurogames often end with a calculation of final scores. Pandemic is a cooperative game where players all win or lose as a team, and peg solitaire is a puzzle for one person.Wikipedia contributors. (2024, May 14). Board game.

(Connor - Oil Painting)   In this episode, I had the honour of having Connor as my guest. He shared with me his interest in oil painting as his hobby.   Definition: Oil painting is a painting method involving the procedure of painting with pigments with a medium of drying oil as the binder. It has been the most common technique for artistic painting on canvas, wood panel or copper for several centuries, spreading from Europe to the rest of the world. The advantages of oil for painting images include "greater flexibility, richer and denser colour, the use of layers, and a wider range from light to dark". But the process is slower, especially when one layer of paint needs to be allowed to dry before another is applied. Wikipedia contributors. (2024, February 13). Oil painting. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia.

(Javier - Poetry)   In this episode, I had the honour to have Javier as my guest. He shared with me his interest in poetry as his hobby.   Definition: Poetry (derived from the Greek poiesis, "making"), also called verse, is a form of literature that uses aesthetic and often rhythmic qualities of language − such as phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre − to evoke meanings in addition to, or in place of, a prosaic ostensible meaning. A poem is a literary composition, written by a poet, using this principle.Wikipedia contributors. (2023, June 6). Poetry. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia.

(Megan - Dice Stacking)   In this episode, I had the honour to have Megan as my guest. She shared with me her interest in dice stacking as her hobby.   Dice aren’t only used for board games or gambling, there’s a relatively new way to use dice, and that’s stacking them. It’s more challenging than it looks. Before the interview, I gave it a try and couldn’t even get one die in the cup. Megan continuously challenges her self by trying new tricks to stack these dice. At this point, she can even stack dice with both hands at the same time and even blindfolded. The cool thing about dice stacking is that you can challenge yourself and stack it on almost anything. As Megan and I discussed, it might not be a good idea to stack the dice on the family dog.   Time For Your Hobby links: Website: Time For Your Hobby website (click to find Apple, Spotify, Google and more) Merch: TFYHpodcast  Instagram: @timeforyourhobby Twitter: @tfyhpodcast Podchaser: Time For Your Hobby  Patreon: Timeforyourhobby  Email: timeforyourhobby@gmail.com     If you like this episode and think it can be helpful to someone you are more than welcome to share it and leave a review.

(Curt - Painter)   In this episode, I had the honour to have Curt as my guest. He shared with me his interest in painting as his hobby.   Deep down inside there’s a Bob Ross in all of us, you just need a little spark of inspiration and maybe a happy tree. Curt pulls a lot of inspiration from Bob Ross’s work but likes to add his personal touch to it to make it more of his own taste and that pretty much the whole concept of being a passionate artist.

(Justin - Disc Golf)   In this episode, I had the honour to have Justin as my guest. He shared with me his interest in disc golf as his hobby.   Why limit yourself to traditional golf when you can try new ways to get a hole in one? With that being said Justin enjoys to play golf with a disc, hence the name of disc golf. The cool part about this sport/ hobby is that you can pretty much play it anywhere outside, heck you can even play it indoors if you want to break a few things. Unlike traditional golf, the wind plays a more significant role on the movement of the disc so it's important to find the right time to throw or else you might lose your disc and find someone else while you’re searching for your own disc.   Justin’s links: Youtube:https://polyinnovator.space/JustDisc - JD Facebook: @JustDiscJD  Instagram: @justdiscjd Reddit: u/JustDiscJD     Time For Your Hobby links: Website: Time For Your Hobby website (click to find Apple, Spotify, Google and more) Merch: TFYHpodcast  Instagram: @timeforyourhobby Twitter: @tfyhpodcast Podchaser: Time For Your Hobby  Patreon: Timeforyourhobby  Email: timeforyourhobby@gmail.com     If you like this episode and think it can be helpful to someone you are more than welcome to share it and leave a review.

He shared with me his interest in playing video games as his hobby.   Definition: A video game[a] or computer game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface or input device – such as a joystick, controller, keyboard, or motion sensing device – to generate visual feedback.

Why buy outfits in a store when you can make it? The easy answer is that buying it is easier but when you make it you get to customize it any way you want and you created something.

(McKenzie - Metal Detecting)   In this episode, I had the honour to have McKenzie as my guest. She shared with me her interest in metal detecting as her hobby.   Metal detecting has multiple benefits for yourself and the environment around you. First of all when you go metal detecting, you can find some pretty cool items that may have some historic significance. Secondly you’re helping clean up the environment from littering. From those two points of view it's a win-win situation. Why not give it a try, I’m sure you’ll find some interesting within 50 meters from where you live.

Shtim plays in a Minecraft server that does its best to recreate architectural structures from a specific time period.

They can pretty much do anything in this society. However, there has been one big challenge where they have yet be able to find a perfect answer. Listen to the episode to find out what it is.

(Amber - Novelist)   In this episode, I had the honour to have Amber as my guest. She shared with me her interest in being a novelist as her hobby.   Amber has always been a big fan for books and creating stories. For most people who grew up before the year 2000, most of the stories were written on on the ultimate skin cutter (paper). Amber still owns her first binder with many stories written on paper. However, as the years went by and technology developed, Amber preferred using a computer since its much easier to change something without tearing the paper while erasing. Currently Amber is in film school to become a screen writer and thanks to her hobby of writing novels, it allowed her to find new and creative ways to bring her stories to life.

(Daniel - Indie Animation)   In this episode, I had the honour to have Danielas my guest. He shared with me his interest in making indie animation as his hobby.   Definition: Animation is a method by which still figures are manipulated to appear as moving images. In traditional animation, images are drawn or painted by hand on transparent celluloid sheets to be photographed and exhibited on film. Today, most animations are made with computer-generated imagery (CGI). Computer animation can be very detailed 3D animation, while 2D computer animation (which may have the look of traditional animation) can be used for stylistic reasons, low bandwidth, or faster real-time renderings. Other common animation methods apply a stop motion technique to two- and three-dimensional objects like paper cutouts, puppets, or clay figures. Wikipedia contributors. (2022, November 16).
