Description

Konnichiwa Fam, On E099, I sit down with Omar Pederzoli for one of the most global episodes we’ve done so far. From growing up between Italy, Spain, Paraguay, and Florida, to marathon running, crypto investing, acting in Los Angeles, and eventually building a telecommunications company in Kenya. We talk about: - Marathon training, Whoop bands, Garmin watches & recovery - Kenya’s running culture and sports tourism in Iten - Omar’s upbringing between Italy, Spain, Paraguay & the USA - Culture shock moving to Florida as a teenager - Competitive tennis and failing at his dream of going pro - Acting, cinema, Hollywood & classic films - Crypto bull runs, making and losing money overnight - Building businesses and transitioning into telecoms - Internet infrastructure, roaming costs & connectivity in Kenya - Share’s growth in the ISP space and the future of internet in Africa - Gaming culture, GTA, Counter-Strike & movie recommendations We also get into language, identity, ambition, discipline, social media, fitness, entrepreneurship, and what it takes to constantly reinvent yourself. And much, much more. Hope you enjoy the episode.
