Happy Friday! ☀️
First week back at work and spent it right away with favorite clients, incidentally two open space formats with the entire team. Fun!
What I’m reading 📖
My local book shop recommended The Netanyahus by Joshua Cohen to me and I saw that it had won the Pulitzer Price for fiction this year. The story blending history, humor, and fiction follows the fictionalized account of two professors who meet in an upstate New York university. The story reeled me in for its wit and interesting historic accounts. My favorite fiction book so far this year. More about the book.
What I’m listening to 🎧
Here’s my month in music featuring songs by Boy & Bear, Elbow, Strand of Oaks, Belle & Sebastian and more.
What I’m watching 📺
Jeff Bridges is one of my favorite actors of all time, I’ve loved his performance in everything I’ve watched with him. The Old Man is his most recent work, a four-part tv show where he plays a former CIA agent who is confronted by his past. It’s a slow burn and stands out for the performance by Bridges and his co-cast. Watch the trailer.
What I’m thinking about 🧠
I’ve been thinking about and following the recent developments in the food-tech sector and there seem to be more and more interesting companies coming out of Europe who are re-shaping the food chain. One of these fascinating companies is Arkeon based out of Vienna who turn Co2 into protein through a fermentation process. Check out Arkeon.
What else?! 💯
My favorite Instagram profile this week is by Alina Block, an LA-based and German native comedian. She’s hilarious.
Thanks for reading, have a great weekend!
