It's been a while since I poked my head out here. X should give everyone a free helmet.
So my favorite podcast @MostlyAdmiring @Freakonomics re-released my interview with @StevenDLevitt, along with a short update on what I've been working on nowadays (github.com/paradigms-of-inte…).
Things haven’t always come easily for Yul Kwon. Steve Levitt talks to Kwon about his debilitating childhood anxieties, his compulsion to choose the hardest path in life, and how Kwon used game theory to stage a victory on Survivor. link.podtrac.com/7252p357

Great article and interview by @DaltonRoss of @EW where @MalcolmWHW @earlcole @jeff_zausch and I share behind-the-scenes info on #SnakeInTheGrass, including Malcolm's subtle moves to win the game.

If you watched last night's premiere of #SnakeInTheGrass, you're going to want to check out my interview with @MalcolmWHW, @yul_kwon, and @jeff_zausch! They get into everything, including how one preseason strategy nearly got the snake pulled from the game parade.com/tv/snake-in-the-g…
Huge congrats to @MalcolmWHW for biting me, @earlcole , and @jeff_zausch to win #SnakeInTheGrass. He had an incredible game and made brilliant moves behind the scenes. Despite the pressure, I had a blast and appreciate the friendships we all made.
Btw I'm still not the snake.
The promo says the series starts on Oct. 1, but the episode featuring me, @earlcole, @MalcolmWHW, and @jeff_zausch will air tomorrow night (Tuesday, July 26) on NBC at 10pm ET/PT.

I'm not the snake. Please believe me. Pretty please?
Exclusive: Watch #Survivor alums @yul_kwon @MalcolmWHW & @earlcole and #NakedAndAfraid's @jeff_zausch in this clip from @USA_Network's #SnakeInTheGrass, which premieres a first look tomorrow on NBC. Any thoughts on who's the snake just from this scene??? usmagazine.com/entertainment…
This is me fanboying over Bowen Yang as I interview him on @talksatgoogle. He's not only the funniest person on the planet (check out his Saturday Night Live skits on YouTube), he's also a trailblazer who's become an inspiration for many of us. youtube.com/watch?v=uSYJKJYR….
When I saw I'd be competing against @jeff_zausch from Naked & Afraid, I didn't recognize him with his clothes on. I recognized Survivor legends @earlcole and @MalcolmWHW instantly. Watch us devolve into paranoia on #SnakeInTheGrass (airs July 26 on NBC and Aug 1 on @USA_Network)
I still feel weird re-tweeting half-naked photos of me, but my wife says that ship has sailed and I should just get over it. So... I'm excited to come out of my social media cave to chat with @DaltonRoss tonight!
Replying to @DaltonRoss
Excited to welcome one of my faves this evening to #Survivor Instagram Live as @yul_kwon joins me at 7pmET at instagram.com/thedaltonross
Insightful straight-talk about the long-term implications of COVID by my friend, @myoungcha. I hope he turns out to be wrong, but am pretty sure he won't be buying me a beer anytime soon. As a policy matter, I agree we can hope for the best, but need to plan for the worst.
Congrats to @SimuLiu and @shangchi for CRUSHING box office records on LDW! Simu isn't just breaking heads, he's breaking barriers and stereotypes, as we discuss in this eye-opening interview on his life and path to success bit.ly/3tjSzH5. Go Simuuuu!
Insightful thoughts on tech and healthcare from @myoungcha, with whom I partnered on the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications project. Super smart and mission-driven leader, now president of Carbon Health.
1/ Some thoughts on the #healthcareishard theme from last week based on my recent experiences at @Apple and now at @CarbonHealth 👇🏻
Survivor tribe we need you! @SurvivorPenner is running to raise funds for a terrific ALS charity @ComCareALS on Aug 15. Let's show him our love by donating or registering at falmouth.ccals.org
Go Jonathan!!!

Grateful to @davelu and all the business leaders who've spoken out against anti-Asian racism. I'm proud to stand with them: bit.ly/3dQCzW0
And more rallies! Here's one in Mountain View where I'll be speaking today: bit.ly/3saH6rp
And another in Palo Alto on 5/2.
It's late, but here's my 2nd interview on the Freakonomics spinoff @MostlyAdmiring: bit.ly/322khvr
I chat about why I went back on Survivor, the COVID-19 project I worked on, and why I'd never run for President (besides the fact that only my wife would vote for me maybe)
So proud of five Asian American women and mothers - Catherine Dao, Julia Chang Kuo, Natalie Louie, Susan Kuo Shih, and my wife, @SophieKwon7 - for organizing a peaceful rally against racism on behalf of AAPI families. kqed.org/news/11867051/role-…
#StandWithAsians #stopAAPIhate
Big thanks to Julie Chang @BayAreaJulie at KQED for the great coverage and story!
