1. What is the situation with the promised Madventures Soundtrack?

TUNNA: I’ve been immersing myself deeply in the DVD making lately, so to be honest I don’t have a clue.  Riku?

RIKU: Yes, right now the DVD has taken all our time, but in January we’ll be able to
tell more about the upcoming Madventures Soundtrack album, for sure!

2. Who do you consider the most inspirational people you’ve met and why?

RIKU: This is an interesting question, as after a few minutes I couldn’t get one
single above-the-others situation in my mind – that sounds like a perfect proof
of my narcissism. Of course meeting wise or charismatic people is always
inspirational in a way – like meeting most of the ones we’ve interviewed in
Madventures. But right now I’m more into suffering from lack of inspiration.
It’s November in Finland…

TUNNA: Myself during the Ayahuasca experience. Lately, my Buddhist teacher.

3. This one goes like this: Riku answers about Tunna and vice versa:  
What’s the one thing people probably wouldn’t believe about Riku/Tunna?

TUNNA: Though he looks and acts like nothing would scare him, Riku is terribly afraid of all animals, even the smallest ones. He also frequently files his fingernails.

RIKU: Tunna may casually enter a wine shop and spend FORTY-FIVE MINUTES deciding which
grape or chateau to choose for dinner, then pick up few bottles, maybe even que
for a moment but then – turn around, return the bottles and leave the shop
empty-handed, as none of the wines were, after all, perfect!

Given the fact that most of the directors of the world are perfectionists, that
shouldn’t be difficult to believe, though.

4. If you could go boozing with any historical figure, alive or dead –  
who’d you choose?

RIKU: That would for sure be Hunter Thompson, but most probably I would be under the
table way too soon.

TUNNA: Siddharta Gautama after the enlightenment.

5. If you could ask one question from the people who are reading this, what would it be?

RIKU: What’s is your favorite scene in Madventures and why?

TUNNA: What’s the most bizarre & interesting thing or clip that you have bump into in the web lately?

  1. It would have to be the traveling scene in China very well filmed.

    The location check in Indochina from MV Season 2 – where Riku pours water on Tunna as “revenge”

  2. My favorite Madventures scene was when Riku lost in Rock, Papper, Scissors (what’s new!!) and had to jump off the skyscraper in St. Petersburg. I’m not sure why THIS moment made me laugh so hard, but just the look on Riku’s face when he lost and was going to have to jump… PRICELESS!! I was in tears laughing.

    Most interesting thing I bumped into lately on the web? Dr. Gerson’s cure to cancer… and the amazing complex conspiracy by the government, FDA and drug companies to keep the therapy’s success quiet… Incredible story, perfectly portrayed by the film ‘The Beautiful Truth’. It made me sick to my stomach… and while it is most likely biased on some accounts, it really opened my eyes.

    P.S – Hunter Thompson!? Can you guys get any more cool?? How about Jack Kerouac?!!? On the Road is one of the greatest books ever written.

  3. Riku: Season 2 Indochina episode where you guys visit Laos, just after you decide not to take the cramped riverboat but to decide to travel by bus. The scene where you are on the bus watching the fantastic views of the jungle road built on a hillside. That topped off with Adam Strange – Traveller completes the scene. Awesome traveling that makes me want to quit everything and hit the road.

    Tunna: It would have to be this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c81bcjyfn6U
    If that isn’t most awesome animal I don’t know what is. Biting snakes head off after getting bit by it – pass out – wake up and eat the snake.

  4. Favorite moment: Tunna’s psychological crisis management as the Aghori campfire bash becomes particularly intimidating—”Okay… everybody… let’s just… chill out.”
