# In conversation with Kevin Lockett

 Nov 2, 2023, 3:28:32 PM · By **Nadim Sadek**

It's amazing how a stranger can unexpectedly enrich your life. That's what happened when I met Kevin Lockett last week during a fun, wide-ranging podcast interview. As the host of a thoughtful Youtube interview series, Kevin has conversations with many fascinating guests. If you don't already know his channel, I highly recommend checking it out and subscribing.

Kevin and I covered plenty of ground, discussing AI, Shimmr, and even some of life's bigger questions. Meeting him made my day and expanded my thinking. I'm grateful for people like Kevin - they make the world a little brighter.
