“The first book is called Factfulness. Maybe you heard about it. It comes from Ola Rosling and Hans Rosling and Anna Rosling. The three are Swedish. It's been a bestseller for years. It's still a bestseller, by the way, New York Times. And here's the story. Actually, I have a story about this book. I was living in Sweden back then. I've been living in Sweden for about seven years, by the way. And it was 2019. And I had two kids, three and two at the time. And as every Scandinavian, we've been dreaming about having a cargo bike. So we started looking for a cargo bike. And it happens that we found a cargo bike parked exactly on our building yard. And so it had a for sale sign. So we contacted the owner. It ended up to be... The bike belongs to Ula Rosling, which is actually the author of Factfulness. And so, by the way, Ula used to be the data PM at Google because he sold his statistic software to Google at that time. And the interesting part is that actually it's a book that is about how can we drive our thinking more using facts than facts. using bias. And this book was recommended by Barack Obama and Bill Gates and everyone. So the fun story is that I get to read this book before anyone else because it was released that day and I met that guy who's awesome. So that's my first book.”
