Hey Vinamre, loving the podcast! It would be awesome to hear from a biotechnologist. There's so much happening in biotech right now that I'm sure your audience would find fascinating.

[@vasudev1431]

Do you even understand what is biotech?

[@bylagu]

Good Evening you both. I am watching your or this type of video. I liked and understood to some extent. But I am still very curious to know (hopefully both of you won't mind or feel offended) that how much or how come your earn money per month, because these days it is very difficult to survive without financial inflow. Somehow I understood and enjoyed to some extent. Thanks with regards.
