    What are the pros, cons, and security considerations of using cryptocurrency and blockchain in gambling?

    I’ve dabbled a bit with crypto casinos and the biggest advantage for me is just how quick the payouts are. There is no waiting around for banks. But at the same time, it’s risky because once it’s gone, it’s gone. No safety net if you mess up. I remember once sending the wrong wallet address and...

    What's the most surreal dream you've ever had?

    The weirdest dream I’ve had was about a city made of escalators everywhere. No streets, no buildings, just escalators going up and down forever. I remember feeling stuck, like I couldn’t step off because there was no ground. I woke up thinking “what the hell was that? but also couldn’t stop...

    Have you ever learned a new language?

    I tried learning French back in school and failed miserably. Years later, I picked it up again using Duolingo just for fun. I’m nowhere near fluent. It's funny how languages feel impossible at first, then one day you catch yourself understanding a random phrase and it may click. It might be...

    If you could have dinner with any fictional character, who would it be?

    Dinner with Tyrion Lannister would be something else. The guy’s wit alone could fill a night. I imagine it’d be one of those evenings where you start with wine and end with empty bottles. He’s clever and that’s what makes him such a fascinating character. Honestly, I’d probably just sit back and...

    Have you ever had a favorite childhood TV show that still holds up today?

    Batman: The Animated Series is one of those shows I can go back to anytime. It’s dark, stylish, and the voice acting is top notch. Funny enough, I rewatched a few episodes last year and it somehow looked even better than I remembered. Most childhood shows don’t hold up, but this one feels like...

    If you could create a new form of art, what would it be?

    If I could create a new kind of art, I’d probably mix live performance with interactive stuff. Imagine standing in a room where the walls change color based on the notes of a guitar. I saw something similar once at a festival, and it stuck with me. Art that reacts to the moment just feels alive...

    Rugby Union vs. League: Which has the better balance of skill and physicality?

    For me, Union is a top contender. It’s got more tactics than League. Though League is faster and can be brutal, and I do enjoy watching it, but Union feels richer somehow. Growing up, all the games we watched in the house were Union, so maybe I’m just biased.

    Who’s the toughest rugby player of all time (any code)?

    I’ll always go with Jonah Lomu as the best rugby player of all time. The fact that he played while carrying a kidney disease blows my mind. It wasn’t just the tries he scored, it was the way he made defenders look like kids bouncing off him. I still remember that highlight where he just ploughed...

    What’s the most underappreciated position in rugby?

    The hooker spot never gets the love it deserves. People rave more about tries, wings flying down the line, or big crash tackles, but without a solid hooker the whole team will not progress. I had a friend who filled in at a hooker once for a training game. He thought it’d be simple, but it wasn't.

    What’s the most brutal injury comeback story in rugby?

    Leigh Halfpenny’s comeback stands out for me. Seeing someone grind through a serious injury, all that rehab, then walk back out onto the pitch like nothing could break him. That's something else for me. I’ve had a mate who tore his ACL and honestly, just watching him struggle back to jogging...

    Which rugby World Cup moment still gives you goosebumps?

    That 2003 final still hits me every time I think about it. Wilkinson’s drop goal wasn’t just a kick, it felt like the whole world stopped for a second. I was watching with my old man in the living room and I swear, he nearly took the roof off screaming. I wasn’t even that deep into rugby back...

    What's the most interesting thing you've learned recently?

    I am very glad to have learned about octopuses having three hearts. Two of those stop beating when they swim and that's so hilarious. I just found out the other day and it blew my mind.

    Have you ever had a favorite podcast that changed your life?

    There are a couple of podcasts I have listened to, but I got hooked on a podcast about personal growth. It really changed the way I perceived life. Some of those advice are simple but it carries a lot of weight. I'm so happy to hear from real people talk about the struggle they've gone through...

    If you could attend any event in history, what would it be?

    If I am given the chance to attend any event in history, I would love to see the first moon landing live. I can imagine the energy that it will take to watch a human step into another world for the first time in history. It's even giving me goosebumps right now.

    What's the most challenging thing you've ever done?

    The most challenging thing I have ever done in my life is learning a new skill from scratch as an adult. I didn't pass through any shortcut and no natural talent, it's grinding all through. It was frustrating but I enjoyed it when it finally clicked. It is satisfying to have a breakthrough after...

    What's the best thing about getting older?

    The best thing about growing older is peace of mind. The older I get, the less I care about some silly things and what people think about me. There's also something very satisfying about looking back and realizing how much you have grown over time. It's more like you have just finally found your...

    If you could create a new sport, what would it be?

    If I'm given the opportunity to create a new sport, I would rather mix parkour with basketball. You can imagine people running up walls and flipping into shots. I know it's going to be the most dangerous sport but it's going to be very entertaining.

    If you could have any animal as a pet, what would it be?

    For me, the most beautiful place I've ever seen was standing on a cliff side across the ocean. I saw it in a TV documentary but I haven't been there and it just felt like I should just stop there and start to live there immediately. What about you?

    Have you ever had a secret talent or skill that few people know about?

    My hidden skill is that I can do many things at a time and very perfectly. I do not tend to flaunt it, it just comes out of the blue. It’s actually fun to keep that little secret. What about you?
