It was one hell of an interview with Benjo, AIR 59. The philosopher in him turned real, as we discussed his experiences through his UPSC Journey. Coming from Adoor in Kerala, he used to top till his school, went to Delhi University for his Graduation in Maths, and flunked his last paper.
So to take the exam again, and he had to wait for a whole year - when he took the UPSC Journey. He believes in Stoicism and also journals. It's amazing how different the folks who have cleared the exam this year seem to be!
