A Bit of Everything
A Bit of Everything is a series of podcasts that celebrates diversity. From our genes to countries, there is diversity in every aspect of life and we, here at ABE want to celebrate that. We want people to tell their stories and what they’re good at to bring out beauty in everyday life. We celebrate the diversity of people, opinions, jobs, backgrounds, and just a bit of everything. And just talk to people to people and learn from them.
A Bit of Free Will and Destiny
Do you ever wonder if destiny exists, if everything is written in the stars or in a book, if God, the universe, or whatever you may call it has everything already laid out for us. Or, do you think that we have free will, where we have been put on this Earth and every decision takes us on a different journey? We have these kinds of conversations every day, opening our minds to perspectives that may have not existed. Listen to what we have to say, along with one of our favourite guests, Valentina. And then think about it.

A Bit of Religion and beliefs Part 2
And we're back with the second episode, going a little more into horoscope and why people believe in it. although we make a lot of fun of horoscope, we understand why it has a significant impact and why people believe in it. Again, these are just our opinions, and facts which might not be 100% true.

A Bit of Religion and Beliefs Part 1
ABE brings to you a topic that is more debatable, highly controversial, and very thought-provoking. In this episode, we talk about several aspects of religion and its creation, along with its beliefs and some of our beliefs. This is a 2 part episode, so sit back and enjoy the first, as I edit the second for tomorrow. Not to forget, this just our opinion and we don't intend on offending any person or institution.

A Bit of Covid-19
This was really interesting as we uncovered theories on Covid-19. We got Adrian on for this one as we compared how our home countries were doing as compared to Canada. Covid-19 took a massive toll on the world, but we had a very positive outlook on the coming years. We spoke about a bit of Covid-19 and we hope to make another episode from a year from now to look back and see how far we will be.

A Bit of Life After Graduation
With some of our friends graduating this year or have graduated in the last few months, we wanted to bring someone who can tell us how life is one year after graduating. Of course, everyone has it different and hence we decided to bring on Drew, who has been doing several different things, and asked him how he manages his time and money.

A Bit of Darren Machado
I think you guys saw it coming, a little more about Darren Machado. From would-you-rather to some juicy details about us, this one, like the last episode, has been something different. Without sounding narcissistic, we had a lot of fun talking about ourselves, and we might continue this segment, to get to know more people around us. Until next time, ciao.

A Bit of Fernando Torres
Most of our listeners pretty much know who Fernando Torres is, but we decided to get to know our co-host a little more today with some of the most interesting questions posed. We got a little insight into his private life and what he thinks about. We will be doing the next segment on Darren to give you guys a bit of us.

A Bit of Cancel Culture
Isn't cancel culture something so powerful today? We decided to talk about it today, along with our friends, Emma and Adrian. We spoke about several different instances where cancel culture was just and where it was taken too far. Power and influence can definitely play a big part. Definitely check it out and follow us for more!

A Bit of the LGBTQ community
I never knew how little I know about the LGBTQ community and hence, we brought Brian to one of the most important episodes and topics. To be in a person's shoes is much different as compared to hearing or listening about it, and hence. We tried to tell people as much as possible about how it is to be in Brian and many other people'sshoes who are in the LGBTQ community.

A Bit of Third World Countries Things
We thought we would share funny stories of what we have experienced back in our countries (India, Peru, and Ecuador), but we ended up talking about some really important issues and how the government in our countries functions. We shared a lot of stories of how our countries really are, especially related to the government, crime, and how Covid 19 has affected us. We are very privileged to have not gone through half of what we have seen, but we wanted to talk about it and make people aware from our stories.

A Bit of The Friendzone
Haven't we all heard this term? We've all been there and if you have not, you will experience it at least once. We had our friend Kate over to talk about the meaning of friendzone, our opinion on it, and our experiences with it. Life is beautiful with all kinds of experiences and this just one of them that helps us grow. Definitely check it out hear more!

A Bit about Goals and Success
After a forty-minute discussion, we still could not put a definition of what success is. Success is something so personal yet ambiguous that we need to all take ten minutes to an hour(or even a day) to decide what success is to us, whether it is being a good partner or the next Warren Buffet, but this episode is a little insight to what we think success is and who we are as people. As you're listening to this, you might learn something about who you are as well.

A Bit of Life and Happiness
Life and Happiness are two things that are still debated by many, there are several theories but there is no specific answer. So we decided to talk to our very good friend Valentina about what she thinks about such things and share our perspectives. We often don't realize how lucky we are to be on this journey that does not have one straight path. We love to hear other people's points of view and stories and learn't a lot about each other.

A Bit about Being "Fat"
Have you ever felt like you were not in the average size? This episode will be on body shaming and the perception of people who are not the ideal or regular size. Along with our special guest, Laura we spoke about our childhood and experiences with this topic as we both were a tad bit heavy for the weighing scale, while Laura told us her experiences. We spoke about several different aspects and it was sad to know this happens every day, to almost everyone, but we will overcome it eventually and be more aware. We honestly barely touched the surface of the topic but we wanted to share our experiences. We hope you enjoy it!

A Bit of Nutrition Myths
Did you hear that carbs are bad? Yeah, they actually aren't. We got Andrea, who is a nutrition major, spends hours researching these topics and has come on our podcast to talk about these topics that have a lot of myths around them, which may or may not be true. We also uncovered several random myths we have heard about food and even air fryers. Feel free to message us regarding anything you agree or disagree with us, we always love to hear from you guys!

A Bit of Work Experiences
We uncovered how average university students like us take on the work force and our experiences with several jobs. it was crazy how common certain things were and how we view these jobs as employees and customers. we all had some very interesting stories and had a great time sharing the. A very special thanks to our guests; Dani, Humzah and Adrian to talk us about their jobs and their opinions.

A Bit of Taxes
There two things that are definite in life. Death and taxes and it is sad to see how little we are taught about the latter. Thus we brought a very credible and wonderful person, David Dunphy on the podcast to teach us more about taxes and I had a great time talking to him. We answered several questions that our audience presented to us and dove in the macro economics side of taxes. I enjoyed recording this and your guys will take something away from this as well!

We had a few more topics that we wanted to cover, but we will in a later episode. For now, enjoy a lil sneak peek into our private lives.

A Bit of Culture Shocks
Welcome to the fourth episode of ABE, here we talk about some things that are different and similar in our cultures and comparing them to that of Canada. We haven't even touched the surface of the differences and similarities, but that is the most beautiful part of the world we live in. Cristian and Adiel were kind enough to join us and tell us about their stories and experiences here in Canada and back home.

A Bit About Love

A Bit of Women's DMs
This is our second episode which started of as us talking about what kind of direct messages girls get but it took a very important turn where we spoke about how women are harassed constantly, in every walk of life. Our friends, Abby and Ali were very kind to tell us their stories. This is something we did not intend on but is very important and hence we wanted to know more and tell our listeners about it. If you are sensitive to this topic, please proceed to listen with caution.
