Tariffs and border walls are a scarcity mindset; we need an ABUNDANCE mindset. Loved this conversation with silver-tongued @DKThomp about how to *actually* rebuild the American Dream – podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Wonderful conversation with @DanielPink dropped this morning, taking a fresh look at the impact of his book DRIVE and the science of human motivation in the age of AI ... thank you Dan! — podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Thank you for the kind words, Tammy ... that's what we are going for!
This was such a fun conversation with @rufgrisc and @LorraineBesser megaphone.link/LI7673280203 that I had to buy hachettebookgroup.com/titles…

SBF is a complex person indeed … this conversation with Michael Lewis was a joy.

Michael Lewis on Sam Bankman-Fried / @NextBigIdeaClub podcast is brilliant.
SBF is a complex person -- discussion breaks down the narrative that he was this cartoonish villain. And that Sam is purely a utilitarian, probabilistic thinker -- Lewis talks about his "radical, intuitive judgment" and that, sat beneath much of the talk of EV. Super interview.

Epicureanism turns out to be a far more useful philosophy than its ancient rival, Stoicism. It was also prescient, surprisingly well-aligned with the science of human flourishing - podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
Fresh this morning — a timely NBI conversation with @BillGates, @AndySack, and @adambrotman about the dawn of superhuman AI, which is coming sooner than most think, with more profound implications.

@BillGates—“The idea that a free product provides arbitrary audio and text human translation—I mean…if you ever had a company that could do that, it would collect tens of billions … And here a small AI company is providing that as an afterthought feature.apple.co/3RMrTwf

Is generosity a happiness strategy? If so, is it longterm selfish? @TEDchris and I discuss in our latest Next Big Idea podcast … really close to my heart. - podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

We sat down with @karaswisher, about her new memoir called Burn Book: A Tech Love Story. It's a smart, dishy, acerbically funny page-turner about how a young reporter with a cellphone the size of a briefcase became one of the most influential tech critics of the day.
Here is a taste. Listen to the full episode on Apple Podcasts (or wherever you listen to podcasts).

Loved this convo with @cdixon which just dropped … took my assessment that blockchain will be an important part of our future from 30% to 60%. Crypto skepticism today reminds me of the collapse of faith in the internet in 2000 … oversteering. - podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Packed house for a little fireside with @cdixon and @rufgrisc of @NextBigIdeaClub
So many people excited by the convergence of crypto and AI, web2 and web3. – at Manhattan, NY
I am feeling hopeful about post-partisan collaboration to solve problems big and small. Why? @rajshah ‘s new book Big Bets, which we just discussed here - podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas… - and Dan Pink’s excellent new Wash Po project, Why Not? - wapo.st/4buipy2
Thank you @JamesClear for this timely conversation, at the dawn of 2024, about the mechanics of how to build and break habits, how to stack them and — my favorite — bundle temptations! And the complex relationship between identity, community, and habits. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
