  And welcome, welcome, welcome.

  It's Jonathan with this week's kind of good life smorgasbord of different topics and ideas, as you know.

• 00:12

  Well, maybe you don't know if it's your first time tuning in, but on these sort of different, shorter episodes, we're kind of mixing and matching and playing around and experimenting with some different formats and segments and ideas, adding to the traditional riff that we've been doing for a number of years and bringing you different stuff.

• 00:32

  Today on Tap, we will be talking about the idea of your environment and how it affects you, your ability to live a good life and do great work and chocolate and your brain.

• 00:47

  What's the real deal?

• 00:50

  That's where I'm going on this week's good, good life project update.

• 01:00

  So, can we talk?

• 01:03

  So here's what I want to talk to you about today.

• 01:05

  It's the idea of your physical environment and how it affects us.

• 01:10

  So as I'm hanging out recording this right now, I am in our New York City recording studio.

• 01:17

  Now, secret little truth here, and those who have actually come and recorded and taped with us know that my recording studio is actually built inside of my apartment in New York City.

• 01:31

  So we at one point, had a completely separate space where we built out a studio and an office.

• 01:37

  And what we found was that it just kind of wasn't working.

• 01:39

  So we ended up actually taking a room and building a recording studio in my apartment so I can literally invite people over for a cup of coffee.

• 01:50

  We close the door, we turn on the microphones, we have fancy pants soundproofing, blocking out all sorts of stuff all around, with the exception, of course, of sirens, which you guys will inevitably hear at some point, because in New York City, they happen often.

• 02:05

  And that is literally the one sound we cannot completely exclude anywhere.

• 02:10

  Where am I going with this?

• 02:11

  So, as I sit and share this with you, I'm a day away from getting onto a plane with my wife, and we will be flying out to the west coast, where we will be kind of hiding away in a tiny bungalow cottage about, I don't know, two blocks from the ocean, from the beach.

• 02:36

  Now, here's the thing.

• 02:37

  We're going to be working.
