Personal Note: I think this is one of the most honest, and the best interviews in terms of the transparent Kaggle, learning to learn, and how to approach machine learning problems or machine learning materials advice.

Radek shares his journey with complete honesty about how he went about learning the fast.ai materials, how he went on to smashing the kaggle competitions that he participated in, and his journey on learning to learn about all of the materials fast.ai and beyond in the machine learning world.

They also talk a lot about learning to learn fast ai, and Kaggle all three together and individually as well.
