David Senra on Deadwood (also: founders, entrepreneurs, civilization, Henry Singleton, Walt Disney, David Ogilvy, etc)

🤬 First a warning: This podcast includes a few swear words. It’s impossible — or at least not as fun — to talk about Deadwood without them. It is what it is. 🤬The main topic is Deadwood (HBO, 2004-2006) and what can be learned from the show, but of course, this being David & I, we also talk about:* founders,* entrepreneurs,* obsessive creators,* the power of focus,* the power of strategy,* how civilization emerges,* intelligence as a currency,* violence as humanity’s fatal flaw,* sanitized origin stories,* addiction & abuse,* Andrew Carnegie,* Henry J. Kaiser,* Henry Singleton,* David Ogilvy,* Walt Disney,* Warren Buffett,* planting seeds,* optionality from future technology,* the lessons of history about violence and corruption,* and all kinds of other interesting things.We also talk about Tombstone (1993), which I hadn’t seen at the time, but watched soon after we recorded. I shared some thoughts on it here in edition #338.If you liked the pod and want more, please consider becoming a paid supporter (💚 🥃). This is a public episode.
