Rowan
Nopes and Opes
Two friends, one from Gen Z and one a Gen X’er, want to take a chance to put something positive into the world. “Nopes & Opes” is a recorded effort of conversations between two friends; conversations that hopefully benefit both Rowan and Hylan but also anyone who might listen. This podcast came about because Hylan published a short book in 2014 and gave Rowan a copy. Once Rowan read it he knew he wanted to do something with Hylan. https://www.youtube.com/@NopesandOpesNopeOpePod@gmail.comhttps://nopesandopes.myshopify.com/https://hylanrm.wordpress.com/

The Hardest Simple Truth 06.12.2023 53:27
Welcome to episode 3. As always I like to have Hyaln write something for the description. Here are his thoughts. When asked to describe the book I wrote, I usually say something like "If you want to be happy and healthy, just take responsibility for the life you are creating. ALL of it." For me, this is the "simplest truth" our world has to offer. As it turns out though, it is easier to write thos...

Intro to Nopes and Opes 19.11.2023 37:11
Two friends, from very different generations, who only met this past summer, talking. Talking about a book, about life, about questions and answers, and how can we move forward. Talking about big things, little things, things that make us laugh, and certainly things that make us cry.
